  1. As far as im concerned Disney has a very good record of making quality movies. and JJ Abrams is awesome, I loved what he did with both Star Treks, Super 8, M.I. III , ( he produced M.I. Rogue nation) Lucas has a great imagination and can tell a story, but his directing and writing skills ( especially dialogue) are sub par. Lucas is still on as a consultant but Abrams is Directing, producing and Writing The Force Awakens and I am fricken super excited for it !
  2. I read something recently on wookiepedia that the Naboo respect idealism, and you often find idealism in youth, That is the reason why more then just Padme we're elected so young.
  3. Cool Story Bro. No really.. not being a dick = D thats actually an excellent story
  4. There was a time where I would say game going F2P? Here comes the Death Rattle. But honestly, its just not the case anymore, every game has a F2P option, it does seem to do better business then having only a sub model. Even World of Warcraft has a limited F2P option up to level 20 I believe and some other limitations. Why would Blizzard do this? They don't have a numbers problem that 's for sure. Because Blizzard is looking at it as an extended game trial meant to entice people into subbing. And that's exactly what Bioware is doing now, its essentially an extended trial, allowing you to play the game as long as you want on a very limited basis. For every one new F2Per who levels 1-50 basically doing solo play because it looks like thats all they get, there will be 10 New F2Pers who get fed up with the limits and sub. This same model has worked time and time again. I cite Lotro as evidence, there game was dieing before it went with this nearly identical F2P system. And when I saw Gandalf on TV yelling you shall not pay! I hopped online and downloaded it..it was a week or two before I got hooked and and started buying things from the Turbine store. The Cartel coins serve two purposes simultaneously, they reward people whom have already subbed with what I am assuming will be cosmetic purchases, bank slots, etc etc, and its a dangling carrot on a stick to the F2Pers whom have not yet subbed and it works by the way. Because when you say your neighbor wearing some cool stuff from the store suddenly those few bucks for coins doesn't seem so bad, its only a few bucks right ? F2P is not the signs of a soon to be deceased MMO, its the new " cool" thing to do in the MMO developers club.
  5. simple fact of the matter... do anything to nerf marauder cooldowns and your gonna habe a useless class. Period... a marauder with out CoP? DEAD in seconds, thats why its up literally half the time. There is a reason for this. Marauders are one of the few classes Bioware got right. Buff other classes, dont nerf marauders... And bioware inspite of what all you people say, do not for one second listen to forum complants, they base decisions heavily on metrics
  6. yeah I get nothing but people asking me how I look so cool... i wear either my marauders mask or the full face mask from taris...cant remember the name of it...but I look pretty close to these sith warriors from this video... Hood + Face mask = Awesome! I plan on augmenting my current set up at 50 until I get that level 50 medium armor drop
  7. thanks, for now I just decided to buy a inqusitors cloak...it looks awesome and its less then1 % drop in armor im happy now lol
  8. anyone know of a lower level one ?
  9. Are there any of these anywhere? Apart from the Bm set? Anyone have any pics/screen shots/ Links or information on these? I saw a fellow mara in lowbie pvp earlier unfortunatly he was on the other time and would not respond to my tells... so I dont know if it was an epic or orange or just a green... anyone know ?
  10. 1. How do you think your Assassin spec is perceived by other classes? I play deception, or used to I have since retired this character, Deception is largely perceived as an easy kill. That really is all there is to it, I have heard people say it all the time, its a free kill. 2. How do you perceive your own spec? We do decent burst damage but not so much that we can take out a target before we are _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ ( insert here- Interrupted, taunted, stuned, target healed) and generally do not have to force regen to sustain more damage and thus are forced to abandon to try again later or die. In addition we are insanely squishy, with a slow vanish cool down. Making us very unsuited for team pvp in a game where our only option is team pvp. No reason at all to take a deception assassin over any other dps right now... it is by and large probably the worst dps specs to bring into a WZ
  11. Its really simple... Let me first start by saying this... I llike pvp in this game, I really do. I was coming from WoW pvp where you basically reroll every new fotm, or just wait for blizzard to buff you lol. that being said, I know things are not completely balanced but all in all I feel its in a decent spot... What I Love about pvp ? I love to win and kick ***... What I hate about pvp ? I hate to lose and get stomped so I am just like everyone else I guess lol and while I am individually a pretty good player, I usually top out on the numbers, while holding objectives. What I can't stand is being DOMINATED because im in a terrible group... No... I do not solo Queue (EVER!) I am in a pvp guild, with excellent players, and we run together all the time. But sometimes ( most of the time) For Awesome players cannot carry for terrible players. This is what I hate about pvp... Being forced to group with noobs, I do a rated every now and then and those are fun, but the Queue is a lot slower. Rated is its own seperate issue.... Please Bioware, give us more options then just the same 4 warzones over and over... Where is Arena? Arena I think would be the answer to my prayers...small scale player vs player , 1v1 2v2 4v4 . To me thats TRUE pvp 1 on 1 or 2 on 2 .... even 4 on 4...but atleast with 4v4 or 2v2 You can consistently pick people you trust to be on your team.
  12. Dear Mr. Peckenpaugh The issue with Assassins is not that they cant work, your absolutely right. I am living proof of what you say is true, I have indeed picked my fights, remained in stealth picked my fights, and helped to cut down Dps and healers when they were distracted by my team mates. the issue is that any other class can do this with out the dreaded survivability that deception assassins have. I challenge you Mr. Peckenpaugh to name one dps class that cannot fill the role that deception assassins are supposed to fill. The issue is that we don't do our jobs well enough to justify bringing a deception assassin along when you could just bring a marauder, or a power tech. Similar issues arise with madness spec assassins. The truth of the matter is, Madness sorcerors fill the exact same roll as madness Sins, however sorcerors do it better ( being able to do roughly the same Dps but at 30 yard range ) , and even madness sorcerors are not allowed in rated warzones because while they do great damage they do not do it fast enough, nor do they have the survivability required. Either way you cut it Mr. Peckpaugh the Assassin AC needs to be reworked. If you want Deception Assassins to be hit and run, then give them the tools they need for it. Right Now a Marauder can fill that role much better because a Marauder can literally Vanish out of every single combat with force camo on a 45 second cooldown. Why does a Non stealth class have a better stealth cooldown then an Assassin. All I am saying is, if the Majority of Players as you say, face tank it, then doesnt that indicate a problem with the spec? If many people are having difficulty making it work, and no one is taking them for rated teams doesnt that indicate something about there viability ? Your Metrics HAVE to be showing this! So why do you deny it ? You know it and we know you know it. Do the majority of power techs face tank and fail ? how about the majority of marauders? in IMO marauder is a much harder class to play optimally then a deception assassin and even the bad ones do ok in pvp. You can't just blanket statement the assassin community and say L2P which is essentially what you have told us to do Mr. Peckenpaugh, quite frankly its rather insulting. Its not an L2P issue, even at our best, even when we are doing exactly what we are supposed to do, other dps classes fill our role and have better utility and survivability. Deception assassins need better burst, or better escape/utility/defense to justify their place in rated teams ( or even regular warzones) . Madness Assassins ( and Sorcerors ) Need more burst so they can also be included in rated teams. You openly admit that this spec ( deception) but I would also claim madness falls into this same category is not a team player. ( madness is more of a team player, but their survivability is almost identical, and even with the kiting and dots your essentially doing what a Deception should be doing, waiting for an oppertunity to finish off weakened classes because your Burst isnt enough to burn down most targets from full to zero before back up comes ) Yet the only pvp that is offered to us is team pvp, that requires teamwork to be successful....so you must make this Lone wolf class, Either less of a lone wolf... or make it ACTUALLY a lone wolf... a Lone wolf who CAN make kills in just a few globals and then vanish again before he gets noticed. ( you dont have to increase damage for this I would say a reduction in force usage would do the trick) Listen to the people who are playing your game and paying your salary, the assassin class needs work. It is Blatantly obvious Mr. Peckenpaugh
  13. Good Dps - Follows directions well. Never pulls aggro. Has situational awareness. Has learned the fight. Tops the chart while doing all this. Bad Dps - No idea whats going on/ Hasn't learned the fight. Pulls aggro then apologizes for being awesome. Dies in the Fire and then blames the healer.
