SWTOR Info

The first update I didn't find out about because of the forum issues they had. I usually don't turn on the client until evening time to check for updates anyway. And today was because of food coma. Too much turkey.

Chaos achieved FOOD FIGHT! and The Turkinator

[chaos5061]

LOL I'll agree to the second one but the first didn't happen... wait a minute yes it did threw my dog some ham and turkey hit him in the head with it. Not a great catcher there.

For the people who didn't get in the beta for SWTOR I'll be streaming it when the beta goes live. Go to www.twitch.tv/chaos5061 to watch. It may take me a little to get it setup right but I will do that while live. To know when the beta goes live go here SWTOR BETA COUNTDOWN TIMER.

There might be another patch then Chaos. They just took down the servers for maintenance until they open it up for everyone.

[chaos5061]

I'll watch the forums but they did that last time and there was no patch just maintenance to bring up new servers.

Also here is a good tip for everyone:
On launch, you might get stuck at either a Black Screen or a SWTOR Logo screen for up to 5 minutes on the first time. This is a normal thing. Don't start clicking or it may crash. Wait patiently. If it has not completed in 10 minutes. You have an issue then. Kill it in task manager and restart. After the first time, the game should load much faster whenever you restart it. Also you may get a notice that the game is already running if you get that after about 3 minutes try again if you still get it go to the task manager and kill it then try again. Don't just leave the launcher up thinking the Play button will become available. It Won't. You have to restart the launcher to see if you can get in yet. Also you will get your Play button to light up on a queue system so you will not get in until they activate you. I didn't get in until 30 minutes after the start time last beta weekend.

Also one other thing: TIME FOR LEFTOVERS.

[chaos5061]

Almost time. Hope you all have a pleasant experience playing today.

[chaos5061]

Don't know if you know or not but the skills for your class when you go rank them up the new ranks are not placed on your action bar. You have to place the new ranks yourself.

[cabby]

Must be you found a bug because I was having no problems with my hotbars having the new ranks there automatically when I hit the trainer.

[chaos5061]

New abilities get put there but not the ranks for me. Read your tooltips just to make sure it will say the rank just under the ability name.

[cabby]

Yeah, that's what I mean. On mine it shows me the new rank in the tooltip.

[chaos5061]

Sucks for me then happens on every character. People must be pounding SWTOR forums the site went under maintenance.

[chaos5061]

Also have problems with energy bar. Heat for BH always showed full and JK flickers a lot between full and what it is.

[chaos5061]

How are all y'alls FPS going? Mine I have all the graphics settings maxed even the sliders and forced AA in ATI and I'm running between 50-75 flux.
