Thank you! I guess i will just open boxes and sell the stuff then, since it is probably worth more than the top "planetary" gear.

I did a few searches and didnt find a definitive answer. I understand the tionese/columni/rakata/BH turning into classic coms, which can in turn be used to buy campaign gear. Are tionese crystals just going to disappear? If so I will just buy boxes with them now and vendor the gear.

http://www.theforce.net/latestnews/story/Disney_CEO_Confirms_Standalone_SW_Films_150115.asp So me and a lot of other people were thinking that Kasdan was writing Episode VIII and Kinberg was writing IX, as they were announced as writers along side Arndt who is writing episode VII. THis is great news imo, more Star Wars movies, and the fact that Kinberg is not writing an actual "episode" of the main series. That guy has the worst resume ever, he has never written a good screenplay, just crap. SO yeah, what movies do you think theyre gonna do? 1. Yoda movie, just cause its a major rumor atm. Could be awesome, could be meh. 2. "Seven Jedi", a spin on Seven Samurai. Buncha jedi team up to protect hapless villagers against marauders. The other majorly rumored one was. Sounds fantastic. 3. Boba Fett movie, was rumored very early on but havent heard much of it recently. Could be great. 4. Jabba the Hutt movie, this one popped up on my radar this week. I could see Jabba starring, but I just really want a movie that focuses on the underbelly of the SW universe, and doesnt deal too much with Jedi or imps or rebels. 5. Any wish list movies? I think a Rogue Squadron movie, or just somthing focusing on a squad of fighter pilots, would be epic. Maybe introduce the new fighters and a few characters in the new trilogy, and spin off from there. Or maybe mix that concept with an espionage angle.

Hey guys, I was playing my smuggler and was chatting it up with Risha at the bar, and I am guessing I ruined the "romance initiation" conversation. Its like conversation #5 or somthing, and I was just checking out the different dialog options/responses, and I went with dialog option #3 (basically I don't have time to charm you lady) and instead of continuing the branching conversation she said like a single sentence and BOOM quest over I am stuck with that outcome. I haven't had this happen with any other NPC and I probe these conversation trees all the time, So I am perturbed. The dialog choice I am talking about occurs at 6:13 in the link below: http://http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ULUFT264JWQ So did I permanently screw up that romance arc? I am still mad that I even let that conversation go official. I see in the next convo my character still has [Flirt] options but that doesn't mean he can capitalize on them. My guy is lightside so it would be a pain/non-rp to romance the blood thirsty Akavai chick. I have opened up tickets but Bioware says they don't offer that service

Oh My Gosh! You own a Marketing Company?! AND you were a gaming journalist when you were younger?! I should respect your opinion and acknowledge your accomplishments! Seriously, I sped read your post and thats all I got before I dismissed it. Anyone trying to make a strong argument will do it through good writing and references. Listing your (fake) resume does nothing for you. I don't even know what ideas you were putting forth, from the topic title it sounds positive towards the game which is where I am certainly, but I am not going to take the opinion of anyone seriously who posts this crap.

That guys critique of my list is entirely from a power gamer mindset of "I am playing this game just to be in max level epics and strut through the fleet because my life is empty." He seriously said operations and hardmodes are pointless. The op seemed semi casual just looking for stuff to do and was sick of questing. I made a list of stuff you can do at endgame that you couldn't do while leveling or at least wouldn't focus on. Hating this game does not mean there is nothing to do at 50. There is a lot to do, just because the guy w/o an avatar is not liking those things or the loot balance or whatever is up his butt, doesnt mean that there is nothing to do. Also 1.5 mil speeder is not useless, it is almost impossible to get knocked off it, except by an enemy player or a boss. Dude who knows everything must not have one or he would know this.

1. Pvp Grind, get to valor level 60 so you can start getting champion gear 2. Do dailys on Illum + Belsavis 3. Earn 1.5 million credits and buy a super speeder 4. Craft stuff 5. Focus on kitting out a companion 6. Max out your spaceship, clear all the missions 7. Run Hard mode dungeons 8. Open world pvp 9. Raid Operations 10. Clear all of Corellia/Voss/the other level 45+ planets 11. Collect all the datacrons 12. Grab some friends and hunt down world bosses 13. Focus on maxing out love with all your companions There's stuff I am not thinking of. I agree there does seem to be a a feeling of "lack" of stuff to do, despite what I have listed, but I am doing 4 or 5 of these things a day and it is keeping me busy. I was doing every daily every day for several days, and now I have been pvping more and hunting datacrons, havent done a daily in 3 days.

I do ok on threat, but I believe tanks could use some help in general. If I leap into a group of enemies and get cc'ed off the bat, which alot of elites in groups open up with, it is near impossible to get control of the pull. These enemies that cc should either be balanced to not use it right off the bat, or do use it on a target that isn't on top of their threat meter. I think tanks aggro generation should be bumped up about 10%, but its not awful, and doesnt need a huge tweek.

You were generally right, and I thought you were leading up to somthing interesting, until halfway through the 4th paragraph, where you accuse me of liking Harry Potter and posit that I never played Vanilla Wow. I played Wow from early beta on, and still hold it as a great game. After Lich King I just kinda resigned myself to not being able to do every single raid, too much time put in and the bar will just always be raised again. Now I will just play every expac for a month or so (cleared all of starting Cataclysm besides Nefarion/Onyxia) to see the new content and enjoy what Blizz has crafted. SWTOR is way awesome cause I actuall feel like I am playing a different game with each toon, at least for the first 3 or 4 I am sure it will be captivating each time. I am still endgaming my initial character but yeah already running out of stuff to do besides pvp. Also I win at pvp, maybe you lose despite how super awesome you are at Wow arenas, but I own people in pvp as a tank.
