If anyone is going to be playing SWTOR and wants to join a fellow WoHPer:

Veela - Empire (East Coast, PvP) [Too perfect of a server name.]

Cho Mai - Republic. (East Coast, PvP)

I have a lot of Star Wars games. Not sure if I have that one but I'll look. Haven't played any Star Wars games in awhile.....

Lol, it's a new MMO. Launching on the 20th with early access for pre-orders starting this week.

Oh, too bad. I don't play MMO's. I refuse to pay a monthly fee to play games on my computer......

I love Star Wars, but I'm done with MMOs. If you're not grinding XP or Rep, you're running the same instances/fights over and over until you finally get the items on your wish list (which will all be obsolete in the next patch).

Forums need "Like" buttons for the previous two posts.

Zaaach, I don't think I'll be able to play with you. :( If there are any other Europeans, however, we may be able to work something out.

The game isn't region locked brooooo! So unless you get major lag on East Coast US servers I see no excuse! :P

Edit: Also, so far, leveling in SWTOR does not feel like a grind to me at all. There are some quests and certain parts of planets where it feels a little slow but the storyline holds it all together really really nicely. Also, there's no rep. :P As for gear grind, I don't know what the end-game is like yet so I can't comment on that.

Don't expect to change any of your opinions, but I figured I'd throw that in there as a heads up.

Oh, well, in that case, I may be willing to try it out on your silly little server, although I had considered finding an RP server.

I don't know why they bother having servers labelled "RP". I've never seen RP enforced or even encouraged in an MMORPG.

I went on a WoW RP server once. Protip: avoid the taverns, or prepare the brainbleach.

It would take way too much manpower to enforce RP in an MMO, but usually the communities regulate themselves and all you have to do is ask or walk around a bit to find some decent RP. I don't know how it is in SWTOR yet because I'm not on an RP server right now, but I imagine it'll be decent.

I used to play on a WoW RP server... as long as you avoid Goldshire you're okay. o_<;

I tried a WoW RP server as well, didn't get out of the beginner area though. Wasn't worth the time, but I imagine (hope?) it's better once you get out of said area.

The best WoW server I've been on was a private server. :P

The rep rewards were 3x, but unfortunately it still felt monotonous.

'Rep' ? What does that stand for?
