I'm really tempted to offer another writing service for a winning bidder. Especially after Nick buttered me up with that awesome compliment. *BLUSHING!*

Re: Why such a short automatic log out on here?

July 01 2011
Goes for most domains. They will log you out as it clogs up server space and causes the system to run slow if there are a substantial amount of users on a website. Most time outs are 15 Minutes to avoid this. Except for larger servers such as Facebook. As there is millions of people to accommodate for.

There is also other reasons for log outs. The cookies are your computers website memory ;)

Hearing about these dark and light side points makes me wonder where they are going with it. Surely not new abilities because it would blur the lines between the sides too much. Perhaps some kind of reputation maybe...?


the interview i saw they said the dark side and light side poitns effect how your companiona relate to you. They said that it wont effect your side the example they gave would be equivelant to a WW2 solider doing his job and saving lives (light) to a WW2 solider keeping a nazi in his basement and torturing him (dark)


Ah cool. That makes a lot of sense. I saw the crafting clip the other day and it mentions that if your crew like you, they work harder and achieve more. Sounds good!

I've watched the first few episodes.

So far I've been enjoying it. But, it hits me that it's basically a remake of the "Walking Dead" series... except the replaced the apocalyptic dead world with the apocalyptic alien invasion world.

Either way.... I enjoy it so far. Go Aliens... and Zombies! LOL :D

Earth 2 was amazing; it still pains me that it got canceled.


We've been watching it Netflix Instant Streaming, unlike most SciFi of it's era, I personally don't believe it shows it's age. No hokey technologies or lines of technobabble. It was spotless until there was one attempted CGI effect to create an explosion that was just horrendous. Even some of the tougher bits of the Terrians or human/Terrian characters coming in and out of the ground (mostly) appears completely believable.

If this show aired today on SyFy or TNT, I think it'd do very well.

The premier had 5.9 million viewers according the Nielson and the next week they had 4.2 million. That's not bad at all if they can keep the numbers up that high. Hopefully, it'll be allowed to run it's entire storyline. Earth 2 was amazing; it still pains me that it got canceled.

Re: Falling Skies

Agreed. I have been anticipating this show and kept hoping it wasn't going to be some corny Siffy (SyFy) wannabe. I was pleasantly surprised with the first two episode (the premiere 2-hour) and look forward to sitting down with the third in the next day or two.

Like Mikey said, I hope it gets it's fair chance at a full run. I keep sharing my old favorite shows with Mike that didn't quite make it through their entire story (Firefly, Earth 2 so far, with The 4400 to follow).

I dunno... I will probably be playing on the Dark Side, myself. ;)

Still, though... Be nice if they would make space combat multi-player... And free-roam.

But even though I dislike the space combat system they've chosen to use (Starfox 64), I'm probably going to choose to play an Imperial Agent simply for their super cool Phantom starship. xD

=edit=

Though, being an altaholic, I'll probably make a Bounty Hunter and Trooper, as well. :p


That's the only real negative about the game to me as well, I was hoping for a space system more like in SWG, or even that old game Freelancer.
Well, that and there doesn't appear to be class that's both Support and DPS, like the one I was playing in SWG (Officer). So I'm looking at either Gunslinger Smuggler and/or whichever branch of Trooper has Combat Medic. But I'm still excited, especially because it looks like it won't take an hour to get buffed for a raid now! :P



Welcome to the Stonewall forums! ^.^

It's lucky the game comes so long after the masses dropped SWG, otherwise SW:TOR's pathetic space combat mechanics would have been laughed out of the business. :P


Don't forget, SWG didn't ship with ANY kind of space component. You simply went from planet to planet like we Teleport in STO (except you had to haul your... umm.. backside... to the nearest starport. But while SWG's space component may have been much less limiting than SWTOR's, it sounds like SWTOR's focus will be on individual interaction and story (like KOTOR was) and SWG can't compete with that.

Hell, when we started following SWTOR, we didn't even know if we'd have SHIPS, much less any space component. Besides, it'll give you a reason to keep STO around. ;-)

As for the classes... I do have to say... the Dark Side has all the best looking ships and I'm none too thrilled about that. ;-)
