Hey All,
 
Well as the title says, did you?
 
I played all the classes and paths in beta.  What was surprising to me is the class/path I settled on in beta and that it has become my main.
 
I originally thought I would be an Engi/Sci because I am primarily a hunter in WoW ( even though I am like the king of altoholics ( I play all classes in every MMORPG I play) ). I settled on Spellsplinger even though my initial impressions were that they are like WoW mages ( which I absolutely hate ) and I ended up an explorer even though I actually hate jumping puzzles.
 
Engi pet control ( or lack there of ) forced "me" to another class ( which I do not regret ).  I hate "science" it's "cumbersome" to level compared to all the other paths ( "to me" ).
 
The WS Dev team made explorer hella fun and "Jumping Puzzles" not the bane they are in SWTOR ( at least " to me " ). ;)
 
So did you recreate your beta toon?  Still having fun?
 
I am! :D	
----
			Yup I did and yup I am :)	
----
			Sorta... I played almost entirely Exile in beta because I knew I wanted to go Dominion. in live. Still having loads of fun though.	
----
			Nope, I made sure to play something I didn't think I'd like in beta.	
----
			Yep, still loving my DPS Stalker :)

Sorta... I played almost entirely Exile in beta because I knew I wanted to go Dominion. in live. Still having loads of fun though.
----
			Yup, the only thing i changed was i got a purple crystals instead of black to go with purple and blue armor dye.	
----
			The profile pic is of my beta character and yes i did recreate her but worked on her face and body type, she was looking too skinny 	
----
			
I do have one character that was made from the beta aspect, the rest are all new
 
and always having fun, if I wasnt, I wouldnt play	
----
			
Same Class, yes. Different Path, different Skills, different Race.
 
I was in Beta for almost a year, so I had *plenty* of time to try out everything. Then at Launch, I pieced together the parts I like best into my "Main."	
----
			
Before my cbt invitation I was quite certain that I'd roll spellslinger or esper at release.
Because of this I picked my least favorite healing class, the medic, for most of my beta experience - to not spoil everything for me or so I told myself.
But after spending sooo many hours on my lvl50 medic I got so used to it that all other classes somehow felt strange and unnatural. I had to to it again after release!
At this point I would rather leave the game behind that reroll to another main class. I don't even waste countless hours with twinking atm, which is quite unusual for me.	
----
			Yup Saved my template and recreated him for launch.. Because you know its just not right if you don't have TheBluemeanie around.

While i tried them all out i really played a stalker - engineer - medic in closed/open/stress.
 
I felt at the time stalker couldn't solo primes well enough, which led to engi having heaps of fun (but frustrated at bots), naive at thinking medics would be dual class i tried them out and liked the self healing to solo group bosses/primes.
 
While tossing it up i went Medic instead of Engineer ('run, you fools')
 
Come 50 Medic is a heal *cupcake* with incoming nurfs and Engineers are top dps and tanks in pve.
 
C'est la vie.
 
Now rerolled to Stalker (lol) to replace Medic.
 
Looks change depending on race. Mechari looks the same, the humans(cassian/exile redneck) have updated on skin tone as some of the lighter ones looked completely different (and weird) in game compared to character select screen.
 
Aurin changed, Granok changed, Draken changed (couldnt bring myself to play a real character with the skeleton face haha), Mordesh stayed the same, Chua... i've never been partial to really. Can't bring myself to play one.	
----
			I went from Engineer in Beta to Medic in Live. Normally I'm a DPS/Tank class right off the bat, wanted to try something new. Carbine knew this and decided "OH WELL IF YOU LIKE IT THEN DEAL WITH THIS!" and took ol' Medic out back to the nerf pasture. Still having fun, though?	
----
			
I rolled the same class, path and race...however she looks radically different. I didn't like the over big disney eyes, and the long hair caused too much costume clipping. So I rolled a test character and took screenshots of female characters in the game I liked and made a character I liked using a combination of my favourite features. Took a while, did it with all my characters, but now I feel much more connected and fond of them, with no urge to re-roll.
 
*shame* I did re-roll my stalker several times because I was unhappy with the size of her arse. It was either too dinky...or way WAY too huge. Took me a while, and kept having to swim and run around in my shreddies in the starter island....

			I recreated my 4 Dominion characters (same races, gender, classes and paths - but my Medic has a different name, since the original one was taken). For my 2 Exile characters, I changed the genders and races. Had a female Aurin SpellSlinger and male Granok Warrior and changed them to male Human SpellSlinger and female Mordesh Warrior (I changed their names as well). I'm pretty satisfied with how they turned out. :)	
----
			
No.
 
I played a Draken Spellslinger in beta, I made a Cassian Esper in live.	
----
			The only thing I changed was my skin color. I knew my look, class, and path early on in Beta.	
----
			I recreated my beta medic but he is currently shelved.	
----
			Nope. Played a Exile human spellslinger in beta, but switched to engineer post launch. Same look, though.	
----
			Still playing the same DPS Stalker Soldier I played in Beta.  Toying with a Medic and a Spellslinger, but I loves me my rogues.	
----
			I did and I am. Being able to experiment during beta is how I found a favorite I could recreate for early access. :)	
----
			No, I was more worried about trying out gameplay/gamestyle and just randomized looks for beta.	
----
			
Nope.  Too many of my friends declared they were playing warrior, so I decided to pick something else.
 
Story of my MMO life.

			every pet ability/order you can bind in wow, you can bind in WS for bots as well... just saying.

Hi Gremlin,
 
While it may be true that you can bind commands in WS as you can in WoW, I have an issue with control regarding pets not always attacking.  There are pathing issues for pets even if they and the controlling character and the target are on the same plane.
 
Bots are frustrating in WS if you are used to pets in WoW ( or multipets in City of Villians ) (again "to me").
 
I have hopes pet control will be looked into and fixed.
