@xilr Even with a premium account you will on average lose credits in tier 9-10. This is specifically to keep a healthy population playing the middle tiers and nothing to do with pay 2 win.

As for gold ammo, a lot of the players who use it earned it by playing for free in Clan Wars. Most players that pay for their gold won't spend it on gold ammo because it is both expensive and only a minor advantage that can be easily overcome.

Neither of those games has a persistent Clan Wars map.

@Livid The magic space bar key skips the cut scenes if you so wish. Personally I enjoy them the most.

@vtravi The Harbinger and The Swiftsure were the two unofficial Aus/NZ servers, so of course they filled up very quickly with Oceanic players that bought through Amazon.

The only fair solution I can think of is to make an official server for Aussie players even if it will continue to be based in the US.

The smell of burnt out tank wrecks in the morning. It smells like victory!

So long and thanks for all the fish!

I would have to point out that Ultima Online housing allows you to customize the house design as well as the internal decorations. Where SWG wins out is the player cities.

WoW's peak numbers? It may take a while. However I predict 2 years from now more people will be playing SWTOR than WoW.

@Beltyra

I do like not having levels, like in Ultima Online and the original SWG. The whole concept of a "level" of a character is unnatural in MMOs and has unfortunately been popularized by EQ and WoW. Having skills that improve when you use them is much better IMO. It also mean the game IS the endgame - you can fill a role as soon as you feel up to it, not when you reach a magic level number. It also means that when you bring out new content, old content doesn't just become instantly redundant. There is a lot of benefit to doing away with levels.
