SWG is crap...full of bugs..boring and unbalanced, add to that no quests or real loot. Wonderfull.

And their customer care is outstanding, dunno how many posts i saw before i left about people who lost everything they had gathered since release, and then logged on after a patch and everything just gone poof. Due to various bugs etc.

I lost 40k creds in my house, and 1 medium harvester, and total 8 small ones. And SOE pretty much said to me stuff it. My last two reports where just deleted.

Had to put up with SoE customer service for 3 years in EverQuest i know the feeling, just dont expect it to improve. Il never forget one of the patch notes from EQ

''Fixed a bug on the PvP server (Rallos Zek) that stopped players entering combat mode"

Only took them two months to fix that bug, but how in the world they managed to feck up that badly in the first place is beyond me

 

[Indiana Jones]

so why are you ppl complaining about Goa, if you can have much worse?

 

[Twaize]

Because GOA is worse... They don't listen at all to anyone...
At least SoE does but they just have a hard time fixing patches (well normally they behave like that)

Twaize you quit playing ... so ... move along ... nothing to see here

Yes but I can still share my views on different subjects. Also another note that made GOA even worse... blocking all Chello users. SoE would never do that!

if you are talking about daoc, goa has nothing to do with patches, unbalanced chars and so, thats mythic's departement.

Aye just like when they put in the 75% nerf on all weapon damage that was meant only for pvp, but they never thought about it would effect pve. And then we have the armor that lost all its effects. Was safer to run nude. And your lvl30 pet was bashed to bits by 5 lvl4 mobs.

Goa does translate patches and also sometimes alters in the patches. They also make fixes only for eu. Like the nerf of savage wasn't as hard on eu as on us

Could be because that's not in 1.63. o0

GOA don't have the source code. So GOA can't change anything to the game exept the texts (french, german, english).

 

[vayasen]

My honestopinion is that GOA attempts very little..so nothing goes wrong. Mythic do the 'work' and any blame lay with them.

SOE attempt a LOT...but they mess up time and time again...with no end in sight(seriosuly if u think DAOC patches are dodgy....u really havnt played SWG).



Ive had more items vanish in 2 months of SWG...than ive had in my previous 6 years of MMORPGing....all together. Disgracefull.

Yes, it's full of bugs.
Yes, it's unbalanced.
It's a new game, deal with it. You know, sometimes those bugs can be fun. DAoC still has fkloads of bugs that people have accepted just because theyve been there so long. I think it's fun to solo dark troopers and the like, purely because there is bugs and its unbalanced.

Theres heaps of quests. Perhaps you weren't looking? And they're generally quests that affect the development of your character and fit into some overall storyline - as opposed to the random crap quests in DAoC. the I don't know how anyone who plays DAoC can say that there is no questing in SWG. You can level your character purely on quests and missions.. as opposed to the DAoC method of leveling which is pulling the same mob 3857349857 times.

Is it crap? Maybe. Am I addicted? Definitely

 

[jodster]

Have to agree

I bought SWG because I was bored of DAoC, and WoW (hey acronym city!) was still some way off. This despite all the bad press I'd read about it and other peoples opinions. Bizarrely enough I go and see movies, or read books, when other people think they're sh*t too - imagine making your own mind up!

These games are all about what you make of it and what you do, and with that in mind I have been thoroughly enjoying myself and am very glad that I bought the game (unlike the missus who said something like "Oh God, not another one!").

There are definitely bugs in the game, but unless they're messing around with the update downloads then I never seem to log in without there being an update file, which is cool compared to the camelot wait for the translation and major patch!

As for missions, there are tons of them and all different types, they suit all people, the game is people driven, the community fantastic and I'm having a really good time. The graphics are stunning, some of the game play immense and I would thoroughly recommend it to anyone, as it would seem to have lots for different people. I bought the game the same day as a rl friend and we've hardly met up simply because we've been doing our own thing, we natter on personal chat but there's just so many things to do.

Still, this is all my opinion, you make up your own.

The qeusts are good and varied?

Are you quite SURE you have actually played SWG? Please tell me you are joking.


I could point to maybe 40 guildies who alsobought (and quit) SWG and they would all testify that the quests/missions are totally repetative...identical...with zero in terms of inteesting rewards.



Quests in SWG can be compared to running 'tasks' in level 10-20 of DAOC...but more repetative....for less reward. They are mostly randomly generated(ie all repetative).



You find bugs fun? Well I lost count the number of guildies(well known and respected(kinda p) folks from Prydwen that just quit SWG in pure frustration at items..houses...characters vanishing.

Only 2 people from LOE are left playing SWG atm. they are both very well known and liked people from Prydwen..one of them is cursing himself for paying for 6 months sub at rlease(everyone laugh at our lovable pvp trojan 'shane' ;] (hi shane).

I was very close to starting SWG but I waited a month for feedback from guildmates. The news I heard was bad and it got worse over time, people losing money and cash it took weeks to amass is a scandal when you consider SOE's response to it. I am very glad I never touched SWG now and I don't see any reason to in the future. GOA have a bloody bad attitude but SOE really just don't give a fek.
