SO we got any SWG players in here?

hey Im Kohaku, a long time player of SWG on the Bria server (TK428 on the boards). with teh new "update" SOE is putting out on the game I came to my end with that game remembering hearing of 2nd life and always wanting to try it well i went and got it and i must say, im not sure what to say, 2nd life is amazing all i need to do now is learn how to play lol

anyways im wondering how many SWG ppl are around here, would be cool if soem ex brians could give me some help learning my way around

and plz tell me that this game is better taken care of then SWG....

Been a long time since i played SWG, i was the mayor and master architect of the largest city on one of the planets (forget which one now) Anyhow i was on Chamera server, but i did get miffed that SOE forced people to open more accounts to have the freedom to have more than one character specialisation. I was trapped having my skill points on mayor, artisan and architect, and i didnt want to lose that setup. So anyhow in the end other games pulled me away. I do miss it slightly but you know what, SL rocks too much for me to even try any game ( at the moment anyhow)

Welcome to SL

Hello Kohaku, yea I played SWG and probally will be quiting in a week or so after 2 and 1/2 years. I was Gesee on Valcyn, as for Bria i have met lots of people from there . Anad i do agree this game is taken care of alot better than swg. SOOOOO MUCH MORE

Was Rank 3 Sentinal Xhai-Quan on Bria prior to CU. Have since not played SWG cept for a minute here and a minute there.

actualy i met a bothan in bria who came on noe day and told me she plays on sl i dont ahve the convo anymroe thanks to soes limit to how lnog a convo stays in your history but she told me there were lots of ex swg ppl here, was hoping to meet up with her in game and she could help me learn how to play, its a big change sl is nothing like swg

all i know abotu her is her avatar is a skunk and she played on bria as a bothan meh who knows mabey you guys can help me learn my way around

Yep. Alot of people from different games congregate here in SL because of the freedom of creation it provides.

And everyone is already a Jedi, a Sith, or a hairy Wookie.
And, we can do whatever we want with our lightsabers.

RRRROOOOOOOWWWWWWRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!! (trans. Welcome, Bitches!)

I am not a former SWG player, but a bunch of us (including some SWGers) roleplay Jedi in SL. Our home is currently in Sirius, in the NW corner, but we plan on buying a sim soon. If you are into the Jedi thing, come on by and talk to some of the members of the Jedi Alliance groups. I am sure you'll find some former SWG players around.

One note: we strive for realism and roleplaying, not making a lightsaber or force push that can kick avatars 40 sims away. So bring your roleplaying hat and join us!

Cheers,
MarcusM

Moved to Off-Topic.

i was never one for the jedi thing, i was a BH right now im atualy trying to find a fox skin, when i finished signing up there was an img of a red fox and i was actualy hoping i could find that skin and just kinda do thta, i think i may leave the sw thing to sw but hey ill def come look ya up rp is always fun and sl looks like it make rp limitless

I was Eto and Neato on Bloodfin. I quit after the first round of the combat "upgrade". I really loved SWG at one point, at one time having 3 accounts. It's really gone downhill.

/agree

the noe thing abotu sl that really got me was when it asked me if i wanted a greeter to come in game and help me learn, gl finding thta with soe....

There is a big Sith group (Dark Lords of the Sith, the sim is Korriban) and there is a big Clone Army group (the Hughes sim). There are also a few Mandalorians and Alliance Navy groups out there. Other than those, and us Jedi Alliance people (and the few disorganized rogue Jedi/Sith groups), there is not much else Star Wars.

We would like to see other groups branch out for roleplay - for instance, a Naboo group or Twi'leks or Bothans or something. That way all of us would have more to interact with. When we get our sim going, we would encourage other similar Star Wars groups to consider a sim adjoining ours. This would create a whole cluster of Star Wars-themed sims.

Anyways, hope to see you online sometime.

Marcus

did you just say clone troopers? ppl have coded the armor into the game?!

I was part of the closed, and later open betas for SWG. I played for a little over a year after beta.

I was mayor of the largest rebel town (at the time) on my server. Just got fed up with all the BS and decided one day that was enough was enough.

I returned there recently with my SL best friend (at the time of preorder for Rage of the Wookiees) to give it a second chance. Alot of stuff had changed for the better and it was once again mostly fresh-feeling to play... but after awhile I got bored again. Just re-quit last night.

The Grey Jedi are alive and well in SL as well.

persoanyl iv been playing swg for abotu a year now and iv seen the dawn of teh CU adn now what is the dawn of NGE or as we call it the CU 2 i just dont think i can take the lag and the bugs and the fact that soe only cares for our money

to bad sl is down right now id lvoe to hop in there and learn all i can abotu it, i think once i do ill be really happy here

I was, uh, Numa on Bloodfin! I quit before the CU as well and recently re-upped for a month.

Man was *that* a waste of 15 bucks... SWG could have easily been the best MMO evah.

could have but it ant, heh one of teh devs got the boot for speaknig her mind to, funny stuff in there for sure

I still have an active SWG account, and my main is on Bria server. He's a Master Fencer with various other skills.

I keep wanting SWG to be fun, but I play it for a week, get very bored and leave it alone for a month or so.

whats your name there? who knows i may have run into you

Dantan Lamoura...rebel, pilot and playboy

well boys and girls, im hooked, i just stayed up all night partying in club furry, my god i love it here

A bunch of us just joined SL in the last few days. All from the Intrepid server. More people are coming soon. We enjoy our "community" there, so we brought some of it with us over to here.

I have played SWG since Beta in 2003. Recently retired from being Mayor of Serenity Valley, Tatooine. I still operate a Tailor shop near Mos Entha. My alt char is a dancer/musician/image designer and is married to a Jedi.

SL is to be my vacation from being a politician and multi-millionaire businesswoman with a Jedi to hide from the Bounty Hunters. A girl just wants to have fun.

I Just joined from Kauri

I played on the Bria server for 2 years "Cabo Loco"

Hey there, Akhik Oslatta / Jasper Spin, Master everythings at some point on the Chilastra server, was playing SL long before I played SWG, been playing on chili for a little over a year and a half now. Very saddened by the changes and will most likely be leaving game myself... glad you decided to check out SL.

To you and anyone else moving to SL from SWG (or any other game for that matter) the first thing you need to do to learn to "play" is to completely toss out the concept that SL is an MMO, it just doesnt work that way. Once you've begun to delve into the possibilities and power SL affords, I know you'll dig it.

Plus, unlike certain OTHER companies, Linden Labs loves and takes care of its "crafters"

May the force be with you. Welcome to SL.
