Star Wars Galaxies 60 Day Pre-Paid Game Card

1 stars (swg d.o.a. of cu 4/26/05) - cancelled ROTW expansion when CU hit. cancelled SWG days later. CU= death of SWG, and everyone knows it. WE WILL NOT PAY TO BETA TEST A PIECE OF S#$% GAME SOE. 1 stars (CU Destroyed SWG) - There has been a great disturbance in the Force, as though thousands of players cried out against the SWG "Combat Upgrade," and were silenced. Star Wars Galaxies used to be an extremely fun, engaging game. However, as of the end of April 2005, the game has completely changed. Just read some of the other reviews here talking about the so-called "Combat Upgrade." SOE is losing a lot of customers because they ruined Star Wars Galaxies. Now, it's just a cheap EverQuest 2 clone with Star Wars skins. If you want to play fun Star Wars games, try Knights of the Old Republic and Knights of the Old Republic 2. 1 stars (DON'Twaste your money!!!!) - Here's an honest question then... I went to 6 different MAJOR cities and NONE I say NO ONE was grouping and I play in one of the most crowded galaxies)... so what am I suppose to do? I'm level 80 and grinding Jedi (village points)... so I think ok ill give it try and try to FIND my level mobs to kill while I try to find a group, incappd, die, incapped, die, incapped, die, incapped die, etc... I was soooo freaking frustrated I wanted to cry. So you saying that the ONLY way I can play this stupid game is if I hang around starports for hours on end and try to find some people to group with, THEN hope that they will actually fight when we get there, (which ive heard some people just sitting back in groups and raking in the xp for doing nothing), and I don't know about anyone else but after about 4 strikes to the creature im spent. I spend the rest of the time trying to heal myself (heal for 200 get hit for 1200, heal for 300 get hit for 1200...hmmm I wonder what comes next? incapped, die). So seriously tell me how to play this game now if I can't group and I can't solo. Become a crafter or entertainer? ...

Star Wars Galaxies- The Total Experience

5 stars (A Rookie's First Look At Online Gaming) - When I a little concerned when I read all of the negative comments about Star Wars Galaxies until I recognized a common theme. The people spewing the negative rants were all players who suffered in some way or other from the Combat Upgrade. This was a major sea change in SWG that was aimed at standardizing some areas of the game and eliminating inequities that granted unfair advantages to those who had been exploiting them. Based on my experience, it seemed that the anti-SWG constituency had also had their "oxen gored" by the changes. While I am sympathetic to their plight (although I have little patience with so-called "power gamers" who get caught with their hands in the cookie jar), the post-Combat Upgrade world would be the only SWG that I would ever know. In other words, the game would be what it was when I joined. It's much like the old joke about how many San Francisco 49er fans it would take to change a light bulb? One to install the bulb and three to stand around and talk about how great the old bulb used to be. Once I decided to join, it went as smoothly as I could have ever wanted. Although I had never played an MMORPG, the installation, setup and character creation were a snap. The game graphics are excellent and the theme music by John Williams is excellent. Because of the fluid nature of this type of game, the manual is, by necessity, broadly written and strategy guids are of limited usefullness. Although, there is an excellent in-game Help feature (the Holocron), the very best way to figure out things that have you stumped is to make friends. I admit to becoming very frustrated by undocumented problems until I asked an obviously experienced character for help. He responded with patience and good humor at the dumb rookie questions I threw his way and actually seemed to enjoy helping me along. We have since become good friends in the game and I can always rely on him for a helping hand ...
