I Love the combat in this game, but i'm finding that as a guild leader its a very unsociable game. Everyone is so into the story that it feels as if they are all playing a singleplayer games rather than an mmo. On vent its just full of people not speaking or saying "be quiet". Hmmmmmm

[jupiterbroadcasting]

@Hellmut34 I've kind of notices this behavior in my self too. In STO I typically play while I hang out on the Jupiter Force Team Speak server.. But with SWTOR, because of the voice overs in a large part, I tend to stay off Team Speak.

Long term, I might end up preferring STO's approach to VO'ing key dialog, but leaving secondary stuff to just text.

STO needs a playable liberated Borg jedi :)

@pacew Now we're talkin! I do miss the Borg, and my ship! STO's got a lot of great features too, so it's win/win for players!

As usual, I love the shows you put out, but am I the only one who finds it hilarious that the shortest show you guys have is titled "An In Depth Look"?

[jupiterbroadcasting]

@KappaDrudge Ya I do kinda laugh at that a bit, it's more of an expression that means "just a single topic". I've thought about changing the name a few times tho!

haters gonna hate....your wrong the companions make the story even richer if you level up theyr afection, i was sad that there were too few missions actualy given by the comp but by the time you reach 50 one would have gone from captain to major, one would have stopped a drug cartel and so on...maybe it was hard to implement all 40 or so companions in the story and that's why it seems "bolted" whatever that means :)

This wont be released in the oceanic region till march 1st :(

@jupiterbroadcasting

liberated borg sith...only thing i like in sto better is the spacecombat. In general i wouldn't want to compare Sto and swtor, its just unfair. Sto's budget and developement time is just no where near that of swtor and you can see that ingame.

PS: Khem Val really is too big, he is just all over the place. had the same problem as you did chris, but the T7 is awesome, his comments are just pure rofl, you got to try Jedi knight.

@TheMrpoxman1 hey i started off against the monthly fee for MMOs, but as long as they keep rolling out content, I'm all for it. Been playing MMOs since Star Wars Galaxies

[theripmon81]

Yeah space combat is weak. that was my favorite part about STO

[DisneyCorpsman]

I miss my STO and all mmo-ing as I can't get online for another 6 days...moved over the holidays. I can't wait for my new PC and SWTOR!
