I have been playing it for days and I am quite addicted to it. However, it is recommended to install the beta patch (version 1.01b) if you are running boards with Intel 845/850 chipset.

Secondly, there are a couple of nasty bugs which you would want to stay clear off. Be prepared for it: (spoiler--scroll down)

1. Swoop racing - Do not finish too good in the Taris race or you will end up trying to beat up a better time from *amatures* in Tatooine. For example, my best time in Taris was 00:22:xx and I have to best the amatures' time in Tatooine with about the same time (00:22:xx) BUT with a standard swoop, which is almost imspossible...unless you have Jedi-like reflexes. My advice is to win the Taris course with a less-than-better-time like 00:38:xx or something.

2. Tatooine - in the Sand People camp, only open the cell door of the Jawas prisoners. Otherwise Mission's bother (if you have not had the quest to recue him) will not spawn later if his cell was opened earlier. FYI, his cell is the one opposite of the cell room of the Jawas prisoners.

3. Stats bug - For some unknown reason, some NPCs stats would revert to the value of 8 during level up. So, it is advisable to save your game before doing the leveling up. If you encounter the bug, simple reload your savegame and try again.

That's all I can think off for the time being.
