Not too sure what to make of the game yet. The story was the selling point for me, but I have a hard time with back-end support of this game. It gets frustrating when so many of the amenities I'm used to in other MMOs simply aren't there in this one (looking for group, chat functions, UI/Mod support, combat log). There is a serious lack of experience in handling game play mechanics and character latency issues on the Hero engine. I wish IGN went into detail on that aspect.
Maybe it will get better.

World of warcraft was the same way when it was first released. And it should be mentioned that this game isn't supposed to be a cookie cutter MMO. From what I've heard, Bioware has stated that there is no LFG queue like WoW's for a reason. Which reason, I don't know, and whether that is an actual bioware statement also remains to be proven to me. I haven't seen it myself anywhere...

Agreed thats the problem going from an MMO that has had years of time to polish and fix issues with itself like WoW to a game thats brand new and just starting out like TOR. I believe it will all get fixed in the end just gotta have patience. They have already released like 12-13 patches and are fixing the bugs as they come in. They are well aware of some of these issues and while they want to incorporate them I think they want to incorporate them thats unique and innovated instead of making it an exact clone of a system like WoW.
