With all the whining (Apologies to those who are dissapointed with the development of the game ) about this game of late, I cant help but be intrigued and am gonna give it another try. Hope I can find my swg box (tried before but stuck with EQ) Any server a good one to start out on? Hoping for a newer server.

When I hear the word about Starwars galaxies going around like this I really think it could be worth another go. I only played the game for the first free month when I got it (almost when it was released!), I found the game to be very good but with a loot of bugs. I wanted to wait for some improvements but I never returned.
Im really considering going online right away, but I got scared from the latest review saying it was very few people out there playing. I am more of a solo player but I enjoy grouping now and then.
How is the situaion out there? Is it like ghostcities described in the review?
Okay, I did it. I jumped back in, and I cant say Im impresses yet. This is mainly because of three reasons:
1 - Not alot of people playing
2 - I liked the old combat system better
3 - All my equiptment on my old chars was gone!
Well, I payed for a month so I will try some more, but I am somewhat disapointed. Maybee its better with RoTW?
If you liked EQ, you will like SWG post CU. It is the same as EQ but with blasters. As a tip, I think it pans out as such.
Doctor=Cleric
Combat Medic=Druid
TKM=Warrior
Swordsman=Wizard
Smuggler=Enchanter
Creature Handler=Necromancer/Beastlord
Rifleman=Ranger
It has been a while since I left EQ to play SWG, but I think that is how it works. I am SURE someone will correct me if I am worng.
make sure u check prices on the bazzar/vendors weapons now have combat number to the weapons u can use ranged folks can use a variety of weapons so can mele folks
Jedi, heal better then docs, medics can no longer heal wounds
You, hear at mining and or lok group forming looking for 55 level +
The endless missions are still there, serious issues are presently happening now some are improving others aren't example get to mission waypoint not there, or appears dissappears, the levels at the missions can jump from 60 - 82 (level)
As in any other level game if a group dies they go by see u latter
heals are on a timer now instead of us sliding accross the floor when we sit mobs do
in some cases the server/client not seeing where the mobs "are" as far as meters go
mobs can continualy hit we get "target to far" target not seen, and favorite is "invalid target"
in some ways post cu is better ( folks are grouping) in other ways one has to be more creative in playing around and figure out what is a "feature, and what is a bug"
they are reseting the servers more often am now, it is always a surprise on what is doing better and or what isn't..............
