Greetings from The Academy

Hello, i am Darka.
I am from Force Academy, just stopping in to say hello
How is everything going here at your new forums?

We doing great.

Of course we had our share of small dilemmas, like re-localization of the forums.
But now that we're settled down here, we've gone back to our former lazy self.

We have recently begun taking Recruiting to a new level, and we're looking for more paladins
I think we were alittle closed before, so if anybody wanted to join, they had to find us, imo.

Anywayz, how is the academy?

Things are good for us, keeping busy in SWG, while a few have ventured in to Aion while we wait, however we are all still eager to get our hands on TOR, and trying not to plan too much while we have a long wait ahead.

Oh yeah, waiting for a cool game to come out,
is like waiting for food.

Sometimes you manage to starve youself, but sometimes you just gotta have a snack.

oh yeah definatly heh

But its all worth once Bioware releases TOR
Am starving, hehe.

Untill then, i'll probably do most of my whin-o y post-o on PP forums
I dont really like the weird discussions on TOR forums.

But you got like 100000000000+ posts on the tor-forums.
So i guess you like it there

Hey Darka, its a pleasure. As Kenobi has already pointed out, with moved fairly well, we lost a few memebers in transisiton, and all those who were quite in active. But we havent let that get us down, and building up again.

We always are getting nice people, so i guess we are jsut lucky to have some of these guys!

Oh hello Darka!
Nice of you to pop in ^^
I see you changed your hat?

and yes the reform/re-move went well we are starting to grow now, i have great hope for our guild. We did lose a few members but the "core" remained behind so all is good.
nearly everyone here is online daily and we recently passed the 1000th post mark.

That hat works.

Thank you, tis The hat'o'Awesome

ello Darka! nice to see you've found the new forums

I wouldnt expect anything else from this lot, Carzy yet loving.

So all looking forward to the 3rd?

Hi there, Darka.

I've not introduced myself before >.>

Skurrow, pleased to meet you

Anyway, the 3rd? That's just the official announcement of the last two classes, isn't it? Or is something else happening too?

Since we already know what they are anyway, I'm not really that fussed. Will get some additional background info I guess.

I'm more interested in what's happening in the following 2-3 weeks. Seems like the closed Beta must be nearby!

Just like to say hope you all have a great xmas!

I had a lazy holiday, didnt get much done. But I needed the relaxation, so I deserved it!

You?

Well I worked quite a bit of it, but when I wasn't at work I was being pretty damn lazy too.

Saw Avatar in 3D - pretty great film. No unexpected twists or turns in the story, but it was solid enough to stand up under scrutiny :face:
Did anyone else find the lead female alien oddly alluring? :oops:

Neu certainly did, check his Barracks comment. I still havent seen it, and it seems I am the only person in the world who hasnt!

Avatar is a great movie, but not as mindblowing as I tought. You can clearly see the difference beetween the animated parts and the non-animated parts. Avatar user a technology which is commonly used in modern game making. Just way more high poly, they didn't have to take care to optimize the polycount, since it was going to be prerendered anyway, and not realtime rendered, which games are. But the animations are great tough, but the mechs could have been animated somewhat better, some of the mechs when they move, looks awkward, especially when they are moving to tall grass.

How are we all a year out from release!
Big summer ahead

We're alive and well, Darka! We're all fully aware that even with an estimated release window, delays do occur and not rarely either. "When its done" applies to all BioWare titles.
