this game peaked 2 weeks after launch. It's been a nightmare of nerfs since then.


This is the most poorly managed MMORPG in the history of MMORPGs. That's an undebatable fact. DIABLO 2 was 10x better, in fact, I think I'm going to load it up and play some now...

Farewell Sparkynine. May you find greener pasture. /salute.


This game was fun at one point in time. The old guilds. The first one being Smoke & Mirrors. Then there was Ronin, and lastly IDS (imperial Death Squad). Funny, I started as a rebel. I remember one of the most hated guilds: Dark. The good old days.

Lol, that was the extent of content, Dingly.

I remember when this game had a actual story. The Cries of Alderaan. Imperials and Rebels actually had a purpose other than killing each otherin the GCW. It was cool how the stroy wouldevolve infavor of the winning faction.

I remember when everyone had pets and MCH were gods.


Where 5 full 20 man groups would die to a kryat and we would laugh about it and talk about doing it again.


When the secret cave behind the waterfall is where people would grind quenkers cause the spawns were fast and no one new about it.


when it took me 45 minutes to run to my first city from the closest shuttle port and the wait time for that shuttle was 10 minutes.(if i even made it alive)


when bonearmor was cool..... lol


when it took days or weeks it seemed to get the combat xp required to get novice bh.



I remember when i logged into the game and not the Forums for entertainment.

My favorite memory is the defending of New Cardia's bases on Dantooine from rebel attack after attack for three months in the summer of 2004. Most fun I've ever had in the game, period, sitting up every night during the vulnerable period with Jason"R and Mystra. Good times.

I remember my first toon was a CH, and sicing my peko peko pet on the imp zerg that would attack anchorhead (back when anchorhead was THE pvp place to be).


man that was fun. and that was the last fun I had in this pos game.

I always ended up being the guy who gets to the droid RIGHT AS THE SHUTTLE LEAVES. I spent *lots* of time standing around waiting for the bus =X


I remember having to pay to go to cnet, then from there out to dath (when people actually went to dath)

We thought CU was the end of SWG. We were wrong. CU2 is. A complete overhaul. So I start this thread for us compile our favorite memories of what once was a great game. I'll start.


I remember when Moenia (Corbantis) was a thriving place, whose cantina's were always filled with players as you would see them now in Mission Outpost on Dantooine.


I remember a group of 15 of us running 2k + to a mission and hoping none of us would have to clone.


There were no mounts or speeders. No player cities. If you were lost in the middle of nowhere, well... you walked/ran 5kor so to the nearest starport. Yeah, we ran everyone. Jedi??? Where??? Who??? No way???


Continue....





When the awesome publish of vehicles finally showed up. I had seen someone with an x-34 and was like "wow". Then I remember meeting an artisan and I buying my first swoopbike for 26k which was my entire bank account. Then I thought to myself "I just spent alot of money" /sigh oh well, nothing wecan do but move on I guess......
