Dang hopefully they let us do that and not take ages like WoW. Sorry should of been more specific on the waiting part. What I mean is I’m going to enjoy the rest of the questing until I hit 50 then I will give PvP a go. Also I heard about that leveling system in pvp it seems great but I’ve heard complaints from the lower level people getting wrecked by the higher levels not because of gear (Which is not possible as you said) but them having more abilities then the lower levels which gives a significant advantage. But my question is are there brackets like 10-19, 20-29, or does it just go 10-50?
AFAIK (and in my experience), there are no brackets. I don't recall seeing a 50 in the couple that I have done, but that may have just been chance. I know I saw 30s and 40s in both of them. I only experienced two modes: CTF and a sort of rush map where you have to destroy doors and get to a core or something like that.
That is pretty interesting. Hopefully they seperate the levels early on. I think a level 10 against a level 40+ even with leveling system can still be very unfair.

You get a month of included playtime, though at least in my case, it still required that I get a subscription before getting online. I am liking the hell out of it, though.
I'm still fighting myself to keep from getting this game.
I know that feel bro.
A Bioware KotOR game designed to keep me playing as long as possible would be the end of me but I still want it.

I made a couple of characters on the server. Xiang and Houka.
I've put Xiang on my friends list, but haven't seen you online yet (since you told me name on twitter) to add you to the guild. I'll add Houka also
I have been splitting my time on other characters. I will play with you guys this weekend. One guild is not a hardcore guild and the other server I am just there cause my gf friend sister asked me to join there. But I want a more perma server to level and raid.

Do you like Bioware's story driven, decision making gamestyle?
Did you ever want a light saber or to be Boba Fett?
If any of those are yes, then I highly recommend the game
Just sayin...
