I am on the Republic side, however I am sure people will run into the same problem over on the Empire side. Don't ask why we can't find it, we all have legitimate reasons! How do I get to my SWTOR ship!!

Answer: Have you been told by your class' quest giver to find it? If not, then you don't have a ship yet.
If so, they tell you exactly where to go to get it the first time. All of my Republic characters were told to go to the hangar on coruscant.
If you are one that wants to spacebar through the convo's, fine, but know that you can read the convo or look at your map to find where to go for a quest.

Is getting SWTOR worth it?
Is getting SWTOR worth it?
I enjoy wow, have played it for 4 years, but I was thinking about switching to SWTOR...so do you think it's worth it? I am a big pvp fan by the way. Just a few questions : Does it have a monthly subscription? Does it have that addictive feel like WoW? Does it have a big player base? Do you think the game will last awhile? And will it have any expansons?

Answer: The most important thing to consider when comparing the two, is - Is it worth your investment of time? There's nothing more frustrating than starting an MMO that will lose its player base. (I.E. Warhammer) or getting into an older dying MMO (like Eve Online).
WoW has a lot of polish under its belt. It basically made the industry for the general audience...whereas before there were games like Asheron's Call, Everquest, and Neverwinter that really only appealed to the Dungeons & Dragons generation. I was there for the WoW launch day and really enjoyed the experience of watching how the game changed over the years. It became too easy, but more accessible in my opinion.
SWTOR does not have the polish of a 7 year old game. However you will definitely notice that it has the perfect groundwork to pick up that polish. I haven't noticed anything in the game that will sabotage the game's future.
The controls and interface will feel familiar to you. Skill trees, inventory. PvP system. It's all there. They've taken everything good that Blizzard has done, incorporated it, and tried to make it better.
The class system will seem confusing to you at first, but will make sense after you play two or three days.
To answer your questions -
1. Monthly Subscription: Yes. 30 days come with the game after purchase. From there it costs $15 a month.
2. Is it addicting: Yes, very.
3. Does it have a big player base: All PvP servers have waiting times right now. Most servers have a "Heavy" population or are full at prime time.
4. Will it last awhile? Yes. There is a ton of content. Level cap is currently 50. There is already an in game tab for "Legendary" character progression & creation content that hasn't been released yet. The player base is barely into end game content yet. PvP reward system is fully implemented. There are six crafting professions, a ton of gathering professions, and some mission professions.
You get your own ship and crew!
The most engrossing feature is the quest system. No more straining your eyes reading text. All quest givers talk to you. You and your party members can interact in the same conversation. If you're familiar with Bioware games - your choices matter and affect alignment (think Dragon Age Origins, Mass Effect, Knights of the Old Republic, etc.).
Coming from someone who was bored of WoW before WoTLK even came out - this is the best MMO I've seen. (And I've been looking for a replacement for a long time).
Hope you get the game, spread the word, and good luck!
