What lore are you referring to? Just the original movies? Because the first 3 movies or their novels do not go into crystals at all. These all come from the EU of Star Wars some of that might not have become part of the official canon of Star Wars but there is lore for this existing. Quote from Jim Ward, a former President of VP Marketing and Distribution at Lucasarts as well as former Vice president of Lucasfilm. "We've stuck to a very clear branding strategy for the past decade. This is Star Wars. Individual movies come and go, as do TV shows, video games, books. They all contribute to the lore of Star Wars, but in the end it is one saga and that saga is called Star Wars. We've wanted to send a clear message to our fans that everything we do is part of that overall saga."

At least 2 keep saying how can we expect new content on the CE vendor after a year, then ask for a reference to a CE that has ever done this. Well my answer would be none but at same time this was the only one that ever stated and hyped that they were going to keep updating with new stuff. So I am looking at a my book case were I have many CE game boxes and or items on it. What gets to me is this is the most expensive one on it at $150 pre-order + tax + (rush shipping added after they said they would not extend our early excess after the game goes live we would need the key to keep playing, yes they ended up going back on that I know but already paid for upgrade) The next up would be Skyrim & Diablo 3 at roughly $90-$99+tax most others fall under $90 So what was the extra $50 for well I thought that was for the part no other CE offered extra/upgraded digital items. So yes things changed they went F2P and offered us a 1,000cc to shut up. Well then they messed that up by trying to shut up all the digital deluxe players saying they wanted extra coins too, they ended up giving them a better turn around for there money even. So voided the out the 1,000cc was likey offered for in first place. Whats been added 1 pet, 1 Head piece, & 4 dyes does anyone think this was worth $50? Now all that aside yes I am still enjoying the game & for now still Subbed. But I would really like the CE store they hyped. So my suggestion they add a 2nd CE vendor to get access you most be a CE account and pay a X amount. So lets say they come out and say for X amount a month they will add Y amount of stuff a month to this 2nd vendor. Because we are paying for it with cash it would all be very cheap to no in game cost for said stuff. we fill they are not adding stuff worth the extra cash we cancel that access. The original vendor stays as is or maybe even still getting the lack luster upgrades its been getting. Any thoughts on that?

They could do something like this but it would need to be unique colors to the crystal packs. Because the re-use of colors from the other packs would leave a bad taste for all those that have won a crystal from the gamble packs and or bought the crystal from the GTN if they just simply became a easy to get item.

Well you can sell them to a vendor. This I think was their solution. But it would be nice for some kind of exchange like 2 or 3 token to get 1 token of the other or even a large amount gives you a Cartel Market Certificate for the rep vendor.

I would like to see Gold & Black Black & Gold Also would be nice if they had some with patterns like Dark Camo Green & Light Camo Green Digital Brown & Digital Tan Clawed (tear look) Red on black (back ground)

Then they would need to go back and separate almost all the sets from the first packs. for example the Phantom set is from 2 separate packs. Sorry but the best (fair) option at this time is to keep it as a total and complete set to get the collection unlock. So my vote is no, the set should not be sold through the market or the re-sale certificate system now. For those wanting the mask their is a way to get just the mask. Now me I totally hate the gambling system. I loved that the Eradicator set was a straight up purchase and would love to see more good sets sold this way. But they can't just turn what was a gambling reward into a cheap purchase now, because they would need to return at least a % of a coins spent on those packs that contained those items just to save face.

So agree, I don't have and never want a Facebook account. Would be nice they stop going to Facebook for everything and do something that includes everyone (100%) that plays the game instead of a percentage be it a large percent or not. I recall seeing several threads when they did the fans choice for reward for being subbed most of those saying they don't use Facebook.

It would be nice if they remove the stupid shoulder pads we get and get the clean neck line and low profile red shoulder pads like Revan has in that image posted above. Maybe do something like they did in the past give us that have the set a 2nd version Classic that removes all the puffy stuff and cleans it up, then make it true black and dark red.

Were did you see for sure their is a patch? All I found was their common "This maintenance is done in order to make general improvements and to check performance of the game so that we can continue to provide a consistent, quality experience. Quite often (but not always) after a maintenance period there will be a patch to download. After the maintenance, please login via the launcher to download the latest patch. If your launcher was open during the maintenance, you must close and reopen it for a fresh login." I think your missing the part that's says not all maintenance has a patch.

First of most stats from comms can be transferred to an alt character using legacy gear already in game that do not require a high legacy or for that matter legacy level at all. Most of the other items from comms that can not be transferred this way can be bought of the GTN. So per your LOGIC this method should be removed from game and you should not be able to mail an alt credits cause they should not have what they have not earned. 2nd this is not WoW should they sit around waiting for what Blizzard does then copy? My thoughts they might want to do something new and better.

So you only agree 100% with 1 suggestion then lets call it 50% with another you then flat out say no to all others with out giving any compromise or new suggestions. Well the Datacrons, I see no issue with these being included in the legacy system but a compromise might be after collecting the same one twice its then unlocked for the legacy. All perks free well I will say that might be to much but how about discounts at higher level especially the ones that are 1 character only perks. You should agree that if you have leveled more than a few characters then you have had plenty of credit sinks that they could reduce / remove some. Now you bring up the soon to be added grinding for rep I hope this is very much so tied to the legacy system. If not straight up shared rep levels at least a percentage of the gains on one character goes to all.

Another one more in line with the OP thoughts on Legacy-wide sharing at lvl 50 - Mounts (1 character learns all characters get access on that legacy)

1st) If the coins came from your monthly bonus or straight up purchased you still have money invested in them. So now looking at coin cost low end 90 for $1, the best deal 137.5 coins for $1 making mount cost $13.09 to $20. I do not see any issues with them keeping this price range for a single character, like most said its within the standard. However I will not be buying any till they add a way to buy them for an account for say 3k to 3.5k cartel coins. Making the cost if you buy the better value coins roughly $22 to $25.45 for account wide mount this too would also be within the standard cost. Giving two examples WoW & Tera both offer account wide mounts for $25, Tera also sells single character mounts at $15 showing they could keep what they have just add the other option.

Some more legacy perk suggestions for the legacy level 26 to 50. - Legacy bank (unlock at one level then add a tab or tabs at higher lvls) (another bank perk could be a tab that only allows so many pieces to be added a week or month that are bound to one character but then can be pulled by another becoming bound to them) - Legacy mounts with 110% speed at pilot lvl 1 like the Recruit A Friend mount. - Unlock to have access to a new fleet vendor that sells adaptive BOL gear. Change - Legacy pilot / mount skill need adjusted for current game changes (use to be character lvl 25 to buy training at, trying to recall, around 30k so that the perk to unlock character at lvl 10 pilot lvl 1 for 40k was a heck of a deal now that we can get same training at lvl 15 for only a few hundred credits this perk has lost most of its value so maybe change unlock to character lvl 5 for say 5k to 10k) Another change for legacy would be Account wide legacy system like it was originally rumored to be.

Its not the stat of the crystal that was exclusive to pre-order but the color yellow-black, and you get access to a vendor to buy them from. This has not changed its still exclusive at this time. DDE was never sated as a limited and they never stopped making or selling. CE was limited. And the only exclusive digital items was a pet & the CE store. They now added a banner for CE but this can be traded/sold.
