The SWG boards says it all. Take a look. The first 30 posts are always kids posting;
"1st post!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!""f!rs7 p0st!""I r000l cuz I am first!""1st""1st post! u r all suxxors""2nd!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!""second!""3rd!""I'M THE FIRST POSTER AND YOU ARE MY B**CHES. 1ST POST! (BY THE WAY, I'M NOT TYPING WITH CAPS LOCK, I'M HOLDING DOWN SHIFT)"etc."Third post!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
you get the idea.
SWG looks real nice and pretty and all, but Its player base doomed it a long time ago.

Er, is there a switch in the options somewhere that I can turn on this "Fast-First-Person-Shooter" movement style in AO?Originally posted by Whaambulance
Words from the SWG beta (3 close friends testing, have watched them play it for hours) is that the gameplay is horrendous. Doesn't have the Fast-First-Person-Shooter movement style of AO, more slow like AC/EQ
AO is more like: Run up to the mob, stand still, shoot and cast Nano-spells. Once the combat starts moving is a BAD thing.
First person shootes (ala Quake) mean you can run, jump and shoot the guy below you while in the air. Try that in AO.

Have you ever seen the type of graphics shown in the Booster Pack video while playing AO? With the 3d camera pans, ect?Originally posted by AngryCrat
Whaam
I find it hard to believe that SWG doesn't have better graphics than AO. I've seen the gameplay videos on Stratics.
Current SWG testing is all focused testing in Betas 1 and 2. They disable almost everything and test 1 or 2 systems at a time. I don't see how one can any make broad characterizations when the game is being played/tested like this. The servers aren't up all the time and thus testers are not running around playing on their own. That comes in Beta 3.

nerd.......... how will you fit this into your schedule between your job at the comic store, arguing about which is better star trek or star wars, and of course setting up your booth at the weekly SW conventions, hahaOriginally posted by Brandon
There will be meaningful RP!
anyway, i lost my train of thought making fun of you, oh yea, RP is dumb
LOL X. you r role playing by just participating in the game. You made a persona of yourself that you wanted to be so you could play in a fictional world. Just b/c you dont go deeper and delve into the fantasy while you play doesnt mean your not a roleplayer. So dont bash peeps that do.
lol, triple x.. hehe. (I'm not laughing at your attempted joke)
Please, if RP sucks then why are you playing an mmo**RPG**? Try to give some respect to people who are giving their honest opinions without insults.
StarWars: Galaxies? I'm not sure if it'll be good or bad.. lots of opportunity for it to go wrong, I'll say that much. Yes, I'm also concerned with a dumbed down player base. It'll result in a bunch of stupid gimmicks to satisfy folk. Ugh, I don't feel like giving an example right now.

An MMORPG has as much to do with RP as I have to do with the incidence of Down's Syndrome in Britain. (That is to say, not much.)Originally posted by Zane0

The freaks who call themselves RPers are merely delusional and easily dealt with: you can RP in IRC but that doesn't make it IRRPC.
Jeez, whats with all the RP'er H8tred? Believe it or not playing a video game that puts you as a fictional char in a fantasy world IS RPing. Just b/c sumone has more imagination or creativity then you and procedes to "act" like his char so what? You flame RP'ers but more then likey the peeps that come up with games like this and others used to and prob still do RP.
So whats your prob?
Ehum...no...it's not roleplaying playing a game.Originally posted by cursedcimmerian

In that case, I would be roleplaying when I play UT...I don't, I shoot people there...I run around and click with my mouse on something my monitor tries to tell me is a human, and I click at it, and the computer tell me that I killed someone. Same thing in ao. I click, I press buttons. I don't think I am any of my characters, I don't try to have cybersex, I don't sit and write "/me holds Crazyhoe's hand", I don't dress up like a fairy and try to have a wedding, I don't run around telling people I am Gnorr the might warelf, I don't try to talk to Hive Guardians to solve their obvious aggressive behaviour, and so on.
I am in no way a roleplayer, nor are too many people in this game.
As for SWG....and alot of 12 yr old americans running around...I am sure they have an ignore command in swg, like ao has...I am sure that u can still kill them (by clicking on them and then pressing down a button or two) and make them cuss u out (hi boarder) and laugh at them. I am gonna try out SWG, it can't be much worse than this...not that lag/support/things to do/patches/bugs/constant changes/nerfs are bad in ao or anything.
