It looks like they invited the whole first weekend back. Not sure when it will be. There won't be servers up for anybody yet this weekend, I don't think, regular or weekend testers.

Just an FYI for everyone who has an account on swtor.com: they initiated their account security questions today. All you have to do is log in and then go to 'my account'. You can figure the rest out...

Well, even if she doesn't play you'll eventually have your own personal healer anyway, although I don't think Smuggler (that was what you were playing, right?) gets a healer until the 5th and final companion.

I'm a different style player. I'm the kind of guy that (on my bounty hunter) turns off Mako's healing and turns on her combat skills so stuff dies faster. Healing schmealing.

Spoiler!

As far as the monthly fee goes, I think if there was any game that ever warranted a monthly fee it's this one. The estimated length of time it takes to play a single character zero to 50 almost three times as long as KotOR and KotOR 2 combined. If you look at that in 15 hour (max...) console game terms you're paying 60 dollars for at least 10 console games worth of content, and that's only playing one character.

It would be fun to duo stuff with her though. Just keep the pressure on.

Not directed towards you. Buti find it funny, most console players always made fun of people paying a monthly fee for a game they own. But now wit console games the route or a pc game they find that they like, their tunenow is, well this game deserves it.

Question 1: How does one start a guild at this point in time?
Question 2: What servers are you guys choosing to roll on?
Question 3: Are the 2 factions going to be able to talk to each other?

Anyone got any clan's set up for Diablo 3 yet?

Look for the button at the bottom of the page.

Question 2: What servers are you guys choosing to roll on?

Republic PvE to start. Might swap to RP (I don't RP, nor does my guild, but names/community are generally less shitty on RP servers).

I'll also have an Empire equivalent with the same folks.

As for which specific sever, I have no idea. They haven't given server names yet. Guilds will be pre-assigned to a server based on their preference (east or west coast, pve or pvp, etc) as well as their Allies and Adversaries.

There will not be shared global channels, but you will be able to speak to the other faction in /say.

If you're setting up a guild for CPers, I'm cool with either faction. I'm sure I'll be rolling toons for both eventually. The only thing I'm set against is a PvP server. I'm a casual gamer, and I'd like to enjoy the game without having to fight off 12 year old punks.

I might throw an alt in just to **** with you guys from time to time, but it'll have to be after the game's live (I'm a guild leader on my account).

If I can get a good setup for it, I game for guilding too, PvP, RP, whatever. Will have to see how funds shake out....I don't even want to see it on my POS computer that I have now.

How bad is it? You honestly won't need very much at all to run the game if what I'm hearing is correct.
