...Why does it look so bad?

I thought this was supposed to be the uber-graphics MMOG.

A Kansas City Shuffle is when everybody looks right, you go left.

It's not something people hear about.

I'm currently Roan Deschian on both Scyllia and Tarquinas, just FYI.

Playing around with different characters. I seem to like the scout best.

I find your lack of nipples disturbing.

Er.

There was one NPC in the bestine cantina that was naked. But no nipples, or anything. Good musculature, however.

Odd that if you took that shirt off, you'd instantly have a white bra on..

It is.

In fact a lot of it is not only desolate but completely and unnaturally flat. I'm talking flatter than east commons by a long shot. Walking around you feel like you're on a stage or a chess board, or playing Doom.

The environmental graphics, I would say, are a good step behind virtually every other MMORPG I've played.

I'm thinking that's for all the player housing (Seeing as how there are a specific number of lots per character, or someshit), etc.

Yeah, on the upside (and more importantly), the character graphics are really fantastic, the special effects are top notch, the engine itself feels smooth and polished, and the UI is highly customisable and intuitive.

I might write a review on it for the site once I've arrived at a decision about the skill system and things.

We need an expansion for vehicles, space travel, and player housing?

Feels WAAAAY too much like they're selling us an incomplete game and charging us for the missing pieces.

Some bits of player housing are in place. Housing and structures are in place. It's just the player-made TOWNS that aren't.

BTW, Bill. Add in Khrynn, Katrinity, and Callalron to your friends list sometime. Those are our characters on Tarquinas

Someone PLEASE tell me why in the FUCK people complain about the lack of nipples or genitalia on models that you are never SUPPOSED those areas of, anyway.

I was in the Virgin Islands once. I met a girl, we ate lobster, drank piƱa coladas. At sunset, we made love like sea otters. That was a pretty good day. Why couldn't I get that day over, and over?

Eh, the environment's alright.

The only places I could seem to enjoy were off in the wilderness somewhere, up in the mountains and stuff. I didn't like the cities too much. They seemed sort of hollow, and the buildings didn't have any sort of purpose. I found some various ones I could go in, and a few with elevators, but they were useless. There was no one inside, and nothing I could do with em.

Unanturally(misspelled, deal) Flat? Try Naboo...running thru the swamps is a pain in the ass and most everyone turn nearly EVERYTHING off so they are not at 4 or 5 fps. I need to up this P4 1.6 and 4200 TI card... Also RAM is a good thing to have on this game. Looking to grab the 5600 card from Nvidia, 128 megs of video goodies.

Here is my leezard from beta chilling at camp in the desert.

Here is my current Artisan, going for Droid Engineer on Naboo, Corbantis Server

I remade my leezard on Ahiza but have been messing around with my Artisan. Have a couple Harvesters running and looking to get a nice spot for mi casa. If anyone else happens to pop on to this server just shoot me a tell and I will try to get you whatever I can make.

Once more into the breach, my friends, once more. We'll close the wall with our dead. In peace, nothing so becomes a man as modesty and humility, but when the blast of war blows in our ears, then imitate the action of the tiger, summon up the blood, disguise fair nature with rage and lend the eye a terrible aspect.

First of all: What? .. I've gone on the record many times as stating that "huge gozangas" are not my interest in a woman; ANY woman; so I don't know where you got that from.

Second, if anyone takes my paraphrased Vader quote as "Complaining" about the lack of nipples and/or genetalia, perhaps you should read some SWG/Planetside/EQ forums and look for keywords such as "balance", "Nerf", and "devs, please read!!!11". You'll learn about complaining really fast.

Third, I loved the amount of character customization in SWG. I spent a good hour and a half playing with EVERY function, every colour, every freckle dot, every length of nose, and every style of wookie hair with each gender before I ever logged on.

I just wish Entertainers (More specifically, hairstylists) would get the choices for hair that you do at character creation, instead of having a very small repitore of styles that expand as people get mad at you for not being able to fix their hair.

Most screenshots you've seen have the graphics sliders set low or off.

When I set mine to high, you get all kinds of things popping up to make the terrain more interesting. When the sliders are off it's just flat shaded ground.

Oh yeah. I'll have to take a shot sometime. All sorts of nice grasses and stuff on Corellia

I may come toy around on Tarqinas with ya'll (Or on the other server you are on) but for now my main remains starsider, unless my guild decides to move, then I'll make another decision then.

Oh PLEASE. If you had left it JUST at the paraphrased quote, I doubt I would have even said anything. But you WENT ON to complain MORE about OTHER instances of no nipples.
