lucasforums_title2

Well TOR fans, it’s time again.Time for “This Week in the Forums”, a weekly recap of the topics users are buzzing about in our forums. Once again, if you haven’t registered already please do so! We want an accurate count of the Star Wars: The Old Republic fans out there!

April Fool’s Day

Darth Moeller, the Supermod in charge of StarWarsMMO.net and its forums, posted a very convincing article about Star Wars: The Old Republic coming to the Xbox 360 platform as well as pc. This was, of course, a very effective April Fool’s Day joke. By looking at some of the comments, I can see that many of you were actually fooled! I hope none of you are sorely disappointed and appreciated the story for what it was, a joke!

Link to the original joke.

Link to the rejection of said joke.

MMORPG Terminology

Forum mod True_Avery has assembled a long list of useful MMO terms to brush up on before the release of SWTOR. If you have any more terms to add or to just check out this list, join the discussion!

The UI

Forumgoer Fiestainabox poses this question. How do you feel about the UI as it currently stands? What adjustments do you make? Some users are fine with it, but others, such as PastramiX are emphatic that “The UI should be entirely customizable right out of the game. .. every window and item should be able to be placed anywhere around the screen, and should support multiple third-party themes.” Others, however, such as Miltiades, want to UI to be polished from the very beginning, so that he can jump right in without worrying about customizing the UI. What do you think? Join the discussion!
