     And what exactly has this added to the game out of curiosity atmospheric flight could be as simple as "you get to actually push buttons to control your ships movement as it heads to open space.....

    No thanks. The only personal resources I intend to contribute to SWG is a handful of earth and then the contents of my bladder.

    I find it funny that there is so much hate in this thread from so many people who complain when other posters talk badly about SWTOR. 

    To each their own, if someone wants to take advantage of this deal, let them I won't be, but it doesn't hurt my feelings if someone else does, I can understand why they would. Just as I can understand why some are so excited for SWTOR, even if I don't share that excitement.

     I'm not sure about hate, indifference yes certainly that.  Do an experiment and count all the responses that are negative against those that are positive, without all the "hate" comments this thread would be buried and wouldn't even be seen by anyone so it wouldn't have the desired effect anyway atleast with all our hate there is a chance someone may see it and give it a go which wouldn't bother me at all.

    I'm just saying realistically the op is wasting his breath a vast majority of people on this site have seen this game and know exactly what it is and if they want to play it or not and in general I think that is the same thing for all the other "hate" you see.

    Why does it matter to you if they are "wasting their breath"? Any need to go out of your way to express a negative comment about a game, be it SWG or SWTOR? 

    I will post my personal opinions about SWTOR when people post a thread like "Why is SWTOR bad" or "Why is SWTOR great?" These threads are clearly opinion based threads, but if someone posted a "Sub to SWTOR now and get X" thread I wouldn't feel the need to comment other than to possibly weigh in on the X. In this case, if someone wants to resub to SWG, this seems like a good deal. Not enough for me to deal with SOE, but others might and it was nice of the OP to let people know.

    Lol sounds like a great way for this game to end... I don't even see them having decent GM events, since giving out any sort of item is pointless...lots of fireworks contributing to lag?

    If you want to pay to experience an MMO when it dies, go for it...I am sure plenty will be recording and posting to youtube for the rest of us :)

    Oh my hate isn't directed at SWG itself or its fans of then and now. Its directed at its masters who took a pretty neat and unique MMO idea and then set about systematically destroying it bit by painful bit. First by forcing it out into the wild before it was ready and then resorting to gimcrackery instead of just letting the devs the resources to fix what was broken when the game failed to be quite the money maker SOE hoped it would be. Kinda like how SOe has handled every game since then. "Actually fix things? Bollocks to that, just relase a new expansion. That'll keep the little monkeys quiet for awhile."

    I just feel it is silly to reward the idiots that ran this game into the ground one more red cent so we can be there in person to watch this poor abused game take its last breaths.

    All of this misses the larger point that even if the game wasn't closing on 12/15 it wouldn't be worth money.

    Oh trust me I hate SOE as well, I'd be playing Vanguard if it wasn't for SOE, but isn't that really a conversation for a different thread. I mean this OP just wanted to let people know. It certainly didn't seem like a praising of SOE.

     I don't recall saying it mattered to me you are quoting me and I'm certain I said I didn't care maybe you should read fully first before responding.  Now that that is out of the way on a forum you nor I have a right to tell anyone the parameters of what types of posts they should respond to if you post expect to get all types of responses bottom line. 

    since we are talking about what type of posts we respond to I tend to read up on and sometimes respond to any post about a topic I'm familiar with and that is no more wrong on this forum than anything you do.

    If you've never taken a stance and disagreed with something you read on here I'm glad for you and impressed by you but I still see no reason to not respond with what my feelings on a topic are especially when I have only spoken negatively about a game not a poster sorry if that hurts your feelings though.

    That's only your decision to make with your money though, even if I agree with it, I'm not going to go around telling people to not play it if they like it. I've personally never understood the appeal of WoW, but I don't feel the need to proselytize against it.

    Yeah you have that right, but you also have the right to be called on such behavior. It works both ways.

     Yeah just like you have the right to block all of us speaking in the negative which would be everyone to respond so far.  In either way you are entitled to your opinion and regardless of what you seem to think you haven't shown me or anyone to have done anything wrong nor have you really "called" anyone on anything especially a "behavior" you are just bitching about our opinion of the game and the posts content which is your right but you may as well be speaking to air for all I or most of the other people to respond would care.

    That's only your decision to make with your money though, even if I agree with it, I'm not going to go around telling people to not play it if they like it. I've personally never understood the appeal of WoW, but I don't feel the need to proselytize against it. 

    Yes you're right, its a highly subjective opinion. But in this case I happen to be right.

  • KabaalKabaal Member UncommonPosts: 3,042

    I'm considering it simply because its an iconic game which does so many things others should try, and improve. Despite some poor decisions it deserves a send off.

    It's one of the oldest and battered boxes on my shelf. Bloody cardboard.

    Sorry me and SWG said our goodbyes long ago.... I did forget to set my house on public tho... Sad to see all the stuff i collected just go to waste. Then again thegame is over.

    This have been a good conversation

    You'd be wrong, as myself and others pay for multiple accounts to SWG, and not just one, and is all well worth the money, as is the most unique MMO on the market, with advanced features that no MMO has, and never will again. If you have played WOW, then you have played them all. The next best MMO after SWG, is STO.

    I've never paid any money to Blizzard / WOW, and may never do

    SWTOR is just going to be WOW in a SW skin, so SWTOR will all be waste of money if you have played WOW

    The second best game on the market after SWG is STO?

     

    You ceratinly can pick some real award winners. 

  • superniceguysuperniceguy Member UncommonPosts: 2,278

    I just play games which give me the most fun, or which ones my friends are playing, and not by which ones are the most popular

    I say STO as it is the next best game similar to SWG with ground and space. Eve is probably better than STO but has no ground, and SWTORs space is on rails, but STO space is like SWGs space, where you can customize your ships and is not on rails, although not so open as SWG but has concentrated content resulting in not much empty space travelling, so in some aspects better thans SWGs space.

    STOs crafting is no way as good. EQ2 is probably the next best after SWG for crafting, and LOTRO is th nest best for housing after SWG.

    SWTOR will be best for quests missions, storylines and smooth bug-free lag-free gameplay

    SWG basically has it all, but  is best for housing, space, crafting, social and community activites, but is just all let down by bugs and lag

    I'd rather play a MMO that provides more stuff than it be a lot smoother, and I bet most of the storylines in SWTOR will go over my head as zoom through it all if doing it with other people who start to get impatient as I sit through the cut scenes. I rather play these kind of game by myself in single player games - storylines although are cool, have no real place in a MMO. In SWG and LOTRO and every other MMO, when doing quests with a friend I always either read it all too fast, or just click through it, so as not to keep them waiting, but then if I do it again by myself I then read through it all. SWTOR is not looking to have too many strong points

    Nope. Any money given to SOE for SWG at this point is a complete waste.

    I do not find it a waste and that is why you are wrong. You can not tell me what I find not worth it

    I pay the money so I can play the game. If I paid the money and did not play the game, then it would be a waste of money, and I would not play the game if I did not find it fun or worthwile.

    I completely agree with you!

    Spending money on it now, just for nostalgia, imo, is just foolish. It's like buying TCG loot packs just to say you had something.

  • ktanner3ktanner3 Member UncommonPosts: 4,063

    Um....no.

    Been there and done that. SWG is NOT the best game ever and the fact that they are shutting this piece of crap down because of low sub numbers proves that point.

    I will never put another dime into SOE after their shoddy customer service. This game was one of my favorites but they will not get any more of my money. All SOE titles deleted from my computer.
