Played beta, didn't like the way they did the ship combat. It's like a roller coaster ride. This game would have been amazing if they only did better with the ship combat. Maybe if they had made it a bit like the ship combat in the star trek mmo. Great news about it becoming free to play though.

Oh yeah, I enjoyed it quite a bit.

For the Sith side if you choose the blue chick as your companion and you make the right choice when scolding or praising her, she will eventually start to like the shock collar. It amused me. XD

Also when you kill a mob, the aura around the body will depend on what type of loot is on the body. This keeps you from having to loot every single mob.

Oh, cool. So your choices affect your story? That's really cool.

In a moderate amount of quests, yes, it does.

I'm getting the "Unable to launch application configuration" error every time I try to launch. There seems to be alot of problems for the client, warning.


EDIT: Disregard that. Client problems fixed in a day. It really is a damn awesome game.
