If you fail to realize what the issue is, you're not playing nearly enough and don't really have room to comment.

Unfortunately no. If your companion starts as a trooper, he'll remain a trooper. If your companion starts as a Jedi, he'll remain a Jedi. That isn't to say that your story won't have affect on your companions to some degree though, but I won't spoil anything. Hope this has answered your question!

May not be what you want to hear, but reset the quest (from your quest log, by pressing L) and start over. It may not be ideal, but it's better than wasting more time waiting for a glitched drop.

I have yet to experience this myself, but it appears that this isn't intended. I'd submit a bug report in-game thoroughly explaining the situation and why you believe it should be fixed. This could potentially be one of the biggest issues in the game, and I'm sure if it hasn't been fixed yet, it's because it hasn't come to the attention of Bioware. I'll try to reproduce the problem and submit a report myself, but I suggest you do as well, in case I can't get the same results as you are.

They do have a purpose. The mods that come with a lot of equipment are mid-ranged mods for the appropriate level. A lot of mods that can be crafted are reasonably better than anything you'll find in a drop. Does this apply to every situation? No. But for the majority, crafted mods for the appropriate level are better than stock modification components.

I like ketchup, it's my favorite condiment. On a serious note, commendation rewards can only be bought with commendations from that planet. They can be obtained through quests, or dropped by certain mobs. Have a very Merry Christmas! -Tenneth

For future reference, you can respec on the republic/imperial fleet. In the combat training vendor area, you'll find a Skill Master who can reset your skill tree. The first skill tree reset costs you nothing, after that I believe it costs a certain amount of credits.

No matter what happens, whether a LFG system is implemented or not, you'll still have to travel to the fleet. So I don't see what you're getting at.

I agree wholeheartedly. I believe that if someone is too lazy to assemble a team, they aren't worth my time. I like the current system, and the lack of some standard mechanics makes this game all the more fun. Played WoW, didn't like it. Playing TOR should be a different experience, and I hope Bioware doesn't appeal to all of the WoW heads out there but rather the average gamer/mmorpg player.

I can build stuff out of lincoln logs for you. Other than that, no.

You obviously didn't read past the words 'World of Warcraft'. Go back to school and perhaps your comprehension skills will improve.

What you, and others need to keep in mind is, World of Warcraft did not have all of these features at launch, and some of them are more recent. TOR has had the best launch for an MMO that I've ever seen, and I've witnessed quite a few. While there are some minor issues with bugs and lack of basic mechanics, the things that really matter to the average gamer are already here, or not far down the road. We'll continue to see your list diminish to nothing within the next couple of months, and I'm sure people will be surprised as to how fast development will pick up in the coming weeks after Bioware recovers from this launch. It's always nice to hear everyone's opinion, and I'm sure Bioware will be correcting and implementing overlooked features soon.

Hey Vataire, If you're looking to create a guild, you can talk to the NPC underneath the Senate Tower. He's between both of the vendor areas in the back by the Galactic Market terminals. Hope this helps!

This is a major security flaw and shouldn't be used.

Do you have your receipt? If so, check it. Some retailers provided the code that way, if I remember correctly.
