This game might be the one that gets me to experiment with the various methods of playing PC stuff on Mac.  Someone might have to help me from here...

The easiest way would be bootcamp but you'd need a copy of windows 7.

Yeah that's the problem...that's alot of money for one game

I made a couple of other characters today.  A sith and a smuggler.  Both pretty fun.  Didn't play a long time on either.  I know I'll probably settle in on some Force type character like a Jedi or Sith.  The game is playing well on my PC.  One little thing I'm noticing is I get a little flicker at times during the video cutscenes, especially the intro stuff.  Not a big deal and it might be because I'm in Windowed mode, even though I run that at fullscreen of 1920 x 1200.  Anyway, the game seems pretty solid and polished right now to me.

Whats the combat like?  Auto attack + special skill spam like WoW?  Or is it more action RPG?

It's like WoW but there is no auto attack.

I wish my computer could play it. It seemed fun, but combat was terrible for me. The interface just wasn't working at all with my computer. I probably would have played it more. But I can say I can't see myself playing it again after this anyway. It's just I can't get into MMOs. I'd rather play Knight of the Old Republic or Mass Effect.

Trying to play a little right now.  They seem to be at server overload today.  I'm in a Queue at position 190 right now.  :(

ElfManDan

Maybe I won't try to jump on a play a little more.

Only 190? I was around 900 last night, some higher pop servers were in the thousands. The primary reason for this test weekend and the next are server load testing and I assume testing of the queue system for the upcoming launch.

Go figure, I've been invited to the BETA for this game.

Btw, those that installed this game, does it use Origin?

What are they, masochists or something?  They don't know what they're in for!

Your account appears to be linked to Origin, but the beta is not downloaded or launched via Origin.

Hmmm, k.  Then I might look into it, as its not tied to Origin and I already have an Origin account due to them transferring my ME2 account into Origin.
