Got an email just a moment ago, another beta weekend:

You?ll be able to begin testing Star Wars?: The Old Republic? very soon! Your test begins:

Friday, December 2 at 1:00 PM CST

Same here. Like just. Did it elaborate 'weekend'? The email said 'final beta testing' and yes, the client from Turkey day weekend still patches up and appears ready to go.

The Turkey Day updater can be updated to final release. It's been said numerous times. I will also be in this "final" test, which makes me quite happy.

Its starting to get annoying trying to log into the site and get a queue, and then not be able to log in with the error " login failed "! Been doing that since the end of the weekend beta

Yeah, just to log into your account details.

Hopefully I can get into this weekend's test but haven't received the email yet.

My beta weekend was smooth and I had no queueing experience thankfully.

Got the email as well, woot..... didn't expect that. Now I can play again.. somehow Skyrim is not appealing anymore after the beta weekend :(

Yea i didnt have a problem during the weekend, it started after the forum maint when the beta was over

Walmart canceled my preorder ( along with a host of other peoples, according to support its an actual cancel ) because I got only the error email have it also preordered on Newegg, so if you ordered from Walmart, would be a good idea to check the status of the order

Dear All who got to test this weekend gone,

I hate you! :D

That is all

I am looking forward to this, and actually quite glad I'm not testing because I just know I would play it too much and ruin it for release day

yeah thats why I was trying to play other classes than what I thought I wanted to play when the game comes out. Problem is, I ended up loving some of those other classes and now want to play them!!

ahh makes sense. Wonder what pre-order numbers are up to? Last I heard they were at like 800k

Last I heard it was unconfirmed at over the 1Mil mark, but that's unconfirmed! The thanksgiving weekend beta hit over 2Mil unique users

With the preorders and anticipation, I hope they don't screw it up As it might very well de-throne king kong

I'll echo Hell's sentiment, of all the ones that have come and gone since '04, this is the first one I've played that could give WoW a run for its base. Like WoW did with its predecessors, it has the sameness while also adding some nice refinements. Plus, light sabers still trump pandas.

I have a strange feeling this game will be played a lot in the first few weeks and then the number of players will steadily decline. The game offers very little outside of voice acting to set it apart from other MMO experiences and it even lags behind other more recent MMO's in its game play (RIFT, STO and many f2p MMO's even). This game will last only as long as it takes for the Star Wars skin to lose its luster.

Agreed

I agree as well. It is going to be huge at first, then by the time everyone hits 50, thats it.

I'm really hoping the game continues to do well. It wouldn't take much to "upgrade"

the game later on with stuff like proper space combat, etc. Right now, the big draw

to me is Huttball. If they add more PvP "sports" combat like that, I'm in for freakin'

life.

I feel the same way as well.

    • 47% profit margin? Wtf!! I know companies are in business to make money but come on man. I know for a fact I'll never own one of these.
    • Most AI-powered mainframe migration vendors expected to fail by 2030, Gartner warns by Paul Hill Credit: Pexels You may have read that many companies still run code written in ancient programming languages like COBOL and pay a handsome sum for those who can maintain that code. Well, it looks like this area of the tech world could be the scene of an AI bubble. It turns out that there are mainframe exit vendors, helping companies move their legacy mainframe systems to modern cloud environments or servers such as Microsoft Azure and AWS, using generative AI tooling. Unfortunately, 75% of these vendors are now expected to pivot or cease operations as market realities take hold by 2030. Alessandro Galimberti from Gartner said: Some of the companies in the mainframe exit market are IBM, 21CS, BMC, Broadcom, Rocket Software, DXC, GTSG, and Kyndryl. The reasons some of these firms are expected to quit the market are a reset of market expectations and a decline in demand for one-size-fits-all migration solutions. The reset in expectations is likely to be driven by cost overruns and threats to business, and the potential occurrence of critical failures within businesses as a result of bad transition implementations. These insights from Gartner are pretty interesting because it’s a specific area of the market where doubt is being cast on generative AI. Many people have cast doubt on whether AI companies will successfully justify the massive amounts spent on GenAI to date, and this data from Gartner suggests the road could be rocky for GenAI.
    • Heaven forbid they lose pennies from their Trillions! Like always, the consumer pays the most. Why is Tim Cooks even talking.....shouldn't he be packing up his office??
    • If you have the budget...! Some solo or indies just want to either learn or start their game and aren't in a capacity to pay salaries or to contractors... Get real.
    • Source and more 35 years old?! And if my maths is mathing, that means she was around 10 when The Ring came out?! Damn...scariest 10 year old I think I've ever seen.
