Till 2012, so the servers have calmed down a bit

The_Nameless_One4964d ago

Actually I've been getting really good connection.

doctorstrange4964d ago

That's good to hear, might try it out earlier - although with all the shedload of holiday games, I'm in no rush :D

Nexgensensation4964d ago

IF YOUR IN NO RUSH! DOWNLOAD THE GAME! THE INSTALL IS INCREDIBLY LONG! I ADVISE YOU TO DOWNLOAD THE GAME BEFORE GOING TO WORK OR SCHOOL SO BY THE TIME YOU GET HOME, THE GAME WILL BE ALREADY INSTALL TO YOUR SYSTEM!

AND WHEN 2012 HITS! YOU DONT HAVE TO WAIT FOR A MASSIVE INSTALL TO TAKE PLACE!

IT WILL BE ONE CLICK AND OH SH*T THIS GAME IS SICK!

ATi_Elite4964d ago

More like "one click and oh crap a big ass patch to install first"

Let me guess your little brother dropped your keyboard and the Caps Lock key got stuck or at least i'm hoping that's what happened.

despair4964d ago

yea for the first week it was chaos but after the latest patch it worked perfectly for me, no lag and instant log in without queues.

AtomicGerbil4964d ago

Not been that bad, longest wait has been 10 minutes to get on a server.

Virus2014964d ago

Why do I feel like SWTOR will suffer the same fate as DCUO. A lot of people will play it at first, maybe use the free trial and not sign up for a subscribtion.

ECM0NEY4964d ago

I have SWTOR pre ordered but I kinda hope the game fails to, so it forces devs to think outside of the WoW box.

EVO-OM3GA4964d ago

Not happy with this game at the moment tried to play a game today and was placed in a queue instead of being thrown into the server straight away like it was doing before.

My queue started from 800 I turned it off!

despair4964d ago

From my experience it goes from 800 to 0 in less than a minute and you couldn't wait?

Siesser4964d ago

in all fairness, that queue moves fairly quickly. 800 people across the entire country are ahead of you - it's maybe a five minute wait, tops. Plus, paid players get in without queueing

Nykamari4964d ago

Playing this all weekend, and must say it's pretty fun. I didn't get it at launch because of the. Subscription, but now I will pay for some of the stuff in the game. People create some amazing characters, and playing in groups are alot easier, than trying to be superman!

MMOs In 2021 Retrospective: Console Edition

WTMG's Thomas Medina: "As far as I’m concerned, console MMOs have always been in a weird place. PC is where the main game is most popular. MMOs were born there, work best there, and have the vast majority of titles. Mobile is then next in line, with touchscreens and portability that adds something new while functioning well. Console gaming, on the other hand, is not portable (for the most part). Plus, it uses a controller, which is not the best instrument when your control scheme requires a thousand buttons and a cursor. That being said, there is an audience, and where there’s money to be made, publishers find a way. So here we are with some of the biggest console MMO games and how I feel they handled 2021. "

Best Superhero Video Games Available Right Now

From Xfire: "A lot of video games are designed to make players feel like a superhero. However, very few actually feature superheroes or have players take on the role of a superhero. What makes this even worse is that there are even fewer superhero video games that can be considered good."
