Gamer's viewpoint

The game is weak
- professions and questing are as grindy as AION (korean MMO).
- game mechanics like dps and heals are not as fun as RIFT
- Auction House is as primitive, constrictive, user unfriendly and item listing limited to 50 items as AION did.
- quicker to reach max level in RIFT and WoW
- non-existent economy even in v-high pop PvE servers
- full of unlimited leveling and credits exploits, Bioware is inept at banning and detecting gold laundering accounts except direct-trade
- economy won't recover until next xpac
- player population consists of mostly rejects from WoW and other MMOs
- game is Flavor-of-the-Season, Diablo 3 will trash it flat.
- game is a just a placeholder, before people migrate back to WoW: Panda, GW2, Aion 3, Diablo 3

All of this is based on your opinion, which means jack. The bonus quests are grindy, but there's far less grinding in SWTOR than any MMO I've played.

For SWTOR you lose the game + 2 months game card (they force you to activate a minimum subscription before you can play the game) = $87.99

Actually all you need to do is sign up for a subscription (credit card) and you can cancel it immediately so you're never charged more than the price of the game which is still entirely too much for the quality of this game so far.

 

[grinder]

did that too. bought a key online for 45 bucks and cancelled the paypal subscription immediatley after subscibing.

still 45 of my mmo budget (from my wow account sales) down the drain

so true, the dude is clearly a wow fanboi, they are so scared that swtor is going to obliterate wow.

Well, the fact that you bought a Lifetime subscription for BuddyTeam's WoW Bot pretty much proves my point that you were at least once a WoW Fanboi.

Sure, WoW is dying a slow hemorrhaging death and has antiquated graphics and each xpac is a rehash of the previous content with "higher numbers". I don't even play WoW for the fun, I bot it for the $.

But you know what, let the numbers do the talking:
Value/Demand of WoW currency > SWTOR currency

Please PM all the China Agents on this forum (and out there) and you will find out that they only want WoW gold.

I vaguely remembered that I sold 90g during WoW Vanilla @ $27 -> $0.30 per 1 gold.
Only weeks into its release and look at SWTOR -> $0.003 per 1K credits

Let's assume that 1K SWTOR credits approx 1 WoW gold. This means that WoW currency at its start was 100 times more valuable that of SWTOR.

Even a dying WoW has greater currency demand than a newly released SWTOR.

The popularity of a MMO is determined by the quantity active account subscription, but since we have no way to pry the figures from Blizzard's or Bioware's accountancy dept, we have to look the next closest statistic -> Value/Demand for the game currency.

Let's hope that you can see the logic that SWTOR is going to end up like AION, RIFT and whatnot based on just the graph of the Value/Demand for the game currency itself.

aside from the obvious skipping of tedious leveling will a swtor bot be worth anything?

i mean will farmed credits be useful?

right now the credits are worth jack cause you can't buy anything. the galactic trade network is a mess to work with.
the lack of UI enhancing addons adds to that (especially for the galactic trade network)
i actually lost intrest in the game around level 11 after my first "flashpoint".

Same for me, lvl 13...

 

[Lister]

Its the same with all MMO since LOTHR, AOC, Star Trek Online, Warhammer you do have to make some Go there kill number of xy ad bring it to me Quests...

I also lost A Bit of Intrest with 13 in Swtor but because its the same. But I still play it sometimes because it still makes a lot of more Fun than WOW and even after a Month there is still a Feeling around with other Players like it was in the first Days of WOW and I like that very much!!
If you ask something you get a straight and desent Answer no WOW Kiddy Blabla so far.

 

[Lefaux]

I did some raids now and I have to say: awesome!

The gameplay suits me better than WOW.
Plus since there are no addons, you pay more attention to whats going on.
In addition, they pump out content like crazy and fix thig as fast as they possibly can.

Ofc I'm stating the pure player POV, but I already bought my first credits.
The only thing that sucks is that not even 8hrs after my purchase I got my first phishing email to the mailbox I only use for buying credits.
Right now my servers in the datacenter flood their scam site with about 1200 entries per second (god bless IBM for their blades) so hopefully there is more farming, less account hacking.

About making money: Yes you CAN make enough money off the daily questhubs in SWTOR, but people that buy gold/credits are like me... they are either lazy or don't have the time to do all their daily stuff.
If I work, i make about $65 per hour post-taxes.
Farming myself 1mil credits takes a tad longer than one hour.

It has less of a currency demand because people can obtain the currency needed through the normal leveling process. If you're going to play a mmo simply to sell the currency for cash then wow is the obvious choice. I'll bot what I don't enjoy, and play what I do. For now I enjoy swtor.

You'll need to always assume 1k credits == 1 WoW gold. The Star Wars universe usually has a fairly "bloated" currency. (Credits) For example; riding in WoW is 20g? Something like that? Its 40k in SWTOR just for 90% riding. Just because it seems like a lot more, doesn't actually make it a lot more. (Remember; SWTOR only has credits, not copper, silver, AND gold. 10k copper = 1g. So... 1 credit = 10 copper. Credits are worth more if you do the math.)

RMT the only reason to play a MMO? Hell, i play them for fun, i been doing it ALL WRONG!

Btw, what can we expect from the SWTOR bot you are releasing soon. Will it be like HonorBuddy with instance,pvp,questing,professsion support?

 

[spriestdev]

Apoc has stated a limited feature set will be available at launch. From what I've read I would conjecture these would be the supported bot bases:

- Grind bot
- Quest bot
- Profession Support
- PvP bot

I'm curious how the profession support will work. If it's integrated in to the Quest bot and sends unused companions off while questing, this would be amazing.

Also, as I've said in this thread before... a LazyRaider-style bot base would be awesome sauce.

Thank you for your valued contribution to this thread.

 

[DaveLovesHonda]

I hope there is a lifetime sub cause anything else is a waste of time lol

 

[Hassliebe]

I hope there is a lifetime sub cause anything else is a waste of time lol

why not test it for a month or so and if you like it, upgrade?

very well possible that they'll offer lifetime though

 

[BotMonkey]

I'd really like for a LazyRaider type function as well.

Sounds really nice. Looking forward to it.

I cant imagine questing getting released in the first release but maybe a few week's/month's later, a very good leveler would be space combat support and crew skill's leveling combined, i used Macro Goblin and it's very good if you have multiple day's to set it up and the patience to piss about with the timing of the routine to fire so i jumped boat and hoping on a release from the buddy team soon,

Any more update's on this dev's/mod's? will space combat be supported from beta and what kind of bot will i be? injected, memory reading or pixel reading? (space combat bot?)

 

[AutomaticCoding]

Vmware or innerspace. Both are not free software.

I tried with vmware but failed. Vmware works with WoW but gives a black screen for swtor. Not sure why.

No idea with innerspace.

Gee, I don't know. Maybe because it gives the VM 256MB of vram + doesn't even really attempt to render anything?
