Darth Hater

It's another Friday here at Darth Hater and we all know what that means, news on www.SWTOR.com and Force Feedback Friday. We just passed the one year anniversary of the Star Wars: The Old Republic reveal and it's been a great week for looking back on the last year. So, in the spirit of remembrance, lets get to all of the communities funny, unique, interesting, and insightful comments from the previous week with the Force Feedback Friday for October 23rd, 2009.




Oh What a World Balmorra Announced. - Zoidberg

JediCosmin is certainly excited to hear an announcement that seems to be aimed at PVPers.

"Could this be the first PVP planet?
From the descriptions and the storyline surrounding this fascinating planet, this can be my biggest guess. Great update in any event. Hope to see everyone there" - JediCosmin said:2009.10.1610:41

Star Wars: The Old Republic Webcomic in Paperback - Sado

Richard doesn't seem to be too interested in rushing to his local comic book shop.

"I really, really dislike the art style in the online comic. It is not at all up to the standards Ive come to expect from Dark Horse. I suppose there might be folks out there that like it, and if so, Im happy for them to be able to purchase the physical copy, but Ill be keeping my coins in my pocket on this one." - Richard said:2009.10.1620:05

Balmorra in Star Wars: The Old Republic - Dover

XANE gives a great rundown on planets seen in Star Wars RPGs.

"I never got too far into galaxies, I tried But I just couldnt do it anymore once I found out that I couldnt dual weild sabers.
Im sure that the devs want to showcase some of the planets from KotOR I & II to show off the changes that have occured in the last 300 years (as a little treat to those of us whove walked theese maps before).
Lets take look:

Community Questions/Poll for this week's Podcast - Sado

cwjedi may need a more accurate mouse, but is still able to toss in two cents on PVP.

"i meant to vote yes in the first pole but my i accidently clicked no , but anyway i would love to see the pvp on balmorra actualy mean something and have an effect on the planet, npcs or terrian and buildings as either the sith or republic control the planet." -cwjedi said:2009.10.1623:08

Kotor Winners Announced Tonight - Sado

snafu might just be able to see the future, or at least some version of it.

"If you missed out on the chance to win Kotor, dont worry Contest losers will be announced in a separate podcast later this week with a heavy amount of mock and derision." - snafu said:2009.10.1917:22

Knights of the Old Republic contest winners - Sleeper

Roguejedi86 does a great job keeping another comment section rolling

"Im mostly glad I didnt win. I knew Id never get around to playing it again; I just ended up posting all over the signup topic for conversation fun." - RogueJedi86 said:2009.10.2012:33

Creating Threads that are Memorable - Xanamiar

Thanks Sean from everyone here at DH

Could We See an Anniversary Announcement - JimtheJedi

Panzzer runs the numbers and puts his money on a class reveal.

"Well i dont want to make and assumptions but it seems that we are due for a Class release.

Bounty hunter -Trooper Almost 2 months apart
Trooper Smuggler Approx. 1 month apart
Smuggler Sith Warrior Approx. 2.5 months
Sith Warrior Present day Almost 2 months

So as you can see we are approaching the average time period between class announcements so I think that we are due for one very soon. What better time than on the anniversary??" - Panzzer said:2009.10.2018:28

Happy Anniversary to Star Wars: The Old Republic - Dover

Brendan Smith points out one the best parts of the "Deceived" trailer

"Showing the TOR cinematic trailer to people not familliar with the EU books and games. All theyve known is two sith at a time. When they see all of those Sith light up their red sabers in the drop ship, its a holy shit moment every time. Ive shown it to about 10 folks and the look on each one of their faces has been priceless. Never. Gets. Old." - Brendan Smith said:2009.10.2212:40

The Bounty Hunter - Zenkei

Hewo just might be needing a few more character slots for all the possible alts in TOR

"I think this game will be the first MMO where rolling alts is something everyone looks forward to instead of something they feel they have to. This is as long as it is what BW says which I trust it will be. I get more excited about this game every day" - Hewo said:2009.10.2212:44
