I took part in the first “beta weekend” and did exactly what you said: tried almost every class. I think I missed maybe 2 classes, but I can try them later. I do have a couple of favorites in mind already.

As for graphical bugs? There were plenty of them the weekend I played, but something I read on swtor site and forums about this being the “beta game client” has me hopeful that this isn’t what we will be playing on Dec 20th.

I started to reply and it turned into a blog post. Long version’s over there. Short version is that no, I’m not happy to wait another year.

Ugh. I hope it’s not true about GW2-I’d at least love to see the game over the summer. That’s like my top game I’m looking forward to, and to hear this is a bad bit of gaming news. Damn. :/ Well, I can keep my fingers crossed here. Thing is, it sounds a bit odd-if I read that article right, closed beta should be starting in the next few weeks-a YEAR of beta? That’s…pretty long I think? Something just sounds off about that.

I’ll keep a ‘hope for the best, expect the worst’ outlook here. But something about a year long beta just sounds odd to me. I could be wrong though-maybe there’s been other games that have had a year long beta that I don’t know of.
