I am willing to pay 3grand to pull out my laptop in the office during lunch and have it look just as shiny and think as the tools with the macbooks.


Anyway enough talking to myself.

Messenger bags go
It's hard to say currently how SWTOR will run at release.

As of right now, it's running nearly identical on max settings and min GFX settings. Antialiasing is currently disabled and not even turning it on at hardware level will render it in game -- it'll just slow you down a **LOT**

It currently uses dual GFX setups with about 0% efficiency. It barely runs better on my new pc with dual 560s than it does on my 4 year old HP junker with a $100 ati 4650 I bought about a 2 years ago. Yet this PC can run Crysis 2 @ 1920x1080 on ultra (25-50FPS) with just **ONE** 560 let alone both.


The game looks **TERRIBLE** at low settings. Really not even worth playing. On high/max settings though it's a good looking game. The combat works really well for an MMO. The ranged shooting mechanics are more flehsed out than alot of the melee (saber fighting) mechanics atm. The cover system used by the merc/assassin classes works very well -- better and more fluid than even ME2s cover system.

But I've already said too much.....let me digress.
