Hey Devs, You think you could look at this again? Prior to a couple weeks ago, it seems the drop rates for the memory cores was around 90%, now it seems to be around 30%. Maybe split the difference? I'm currently sitting on 1 core out of 8 probe droid kills. A few days ago it took me 15 kills to get the 4 cores. That's highly frustrating.

Has anyone ever considered the possibility of gaining companion influence when completing missions and/or killing big baddies (like the Command points are done now) in addition to, or even in lieu of, gifts? I mean, IRL, folks gain more esteem from others by doing things with them than by receiving gifts. Anyone who has to buy their friends gifts to be liked is generally considered a schmuck.

I stand corrected...I do have bitraider. I turned it off and the game is now starting. Thanks for the help.

No, I don't.

Tried that...now the game won't open at all. After running the repair utility, I enter my PW and after about 60 seconds of nothing I get an error: "This application has encountered an unspecified error. Please try this patch again." This happens every time now. Looks like a reinstall is now in order...

Agreed...it shouldn't be doing this. But every time I log in I have to wait 5-15 minutes for the game to install updates. And yes, it is update 4.5. Is the launcher borked maybe?

So, for the last couple weeks or so every time I log into the game it updates, and the update is EXTREMELY slow. Is this a know issue? Is there a fix for it?

I find it humorous how much, and how many, people get upset over, at most, 50 cents.

OK. Now I feel like a complete idiot. Imma blame the pain killers.

Hi all, I've got 6 characters that have finished getting the extra followers and then been offered the planetary missions to work toward the Star Fortress runs. No problem. But I've got a 7th character that finished the follower missions, but is not being offered the SF preliminary missions. Am I missing the trigger for those? if so, what is it? I think I've done everything I need to, but I must be missing something.

Yes, it is 5 years in the future. But if you actually paid attention, it makes the assumption that you went thru the previous story line. So why not have the titles that go with that assumption?

Hi all, I used my free level 60 token to create a Sith character and went thru the Zakuul story. At the end, tho, I do not have the title of Darth available to use. Is there a way to replay the story arc that gives me that title? I'd also like the Lord title, but not as much.

I wondered how that worked. After you comments I looked into it, and that is definitely the way to go. Besides, it's only 350 Cartel Coins and so I can get 3 more of them for $10. Thanks for the heads up.

I've completed the HK-51 missions and gotten the companion for my Jedi character. Now I want to for my Sith character. Will my Jedi still be able to help, or will he not be able to pick up the Republic pieces since he's already completed the quests?

Agreed. I was able to defeat him with some classes without the fire, but usually just under the time limit. With the fire, it wasn't even close. It made a huge difference.
