Like the title says, forcing players to play on both factions is detrimental to the game's experience. Not only has their been more of this sloppy "content" , but its salt in the wound considering the abysmal amount of content released with 7.0.

How long has the player population been asking for more playable races? How long have they been asking for more planets? Time and time again players post on the suggestion forums and they are ignored. I really hope Disney pulls the project from EA and BioWare and gives it to a more capable company.

I would also like to point out that he OP is using an MMO with a different layout. LoTRO is completely different MMO with a completely different fan base. The argument that "most mmos are like this" has no validity. If you want an mmo where the raiders and pvpers are the majority, EVE. There you go. Now I personally don't care if you are casual or hardcore as I have been both. However, I dont think that players should be just given the gear when they hit 55. I am a founder, my level 55 Shadow is in full 168, at one point he was in full 162s, I never had a problem DPSing and rarely wiped. I grinded tmy 162 set doing dailies and random queueing for FPs. With the x2 xp events more and more players are rushing through their characters, not taking the time to properly learn how to play their class. When I get grouped with someone who has never run a FP and they are level 54 and wont listen to the more experienced players, that is when I get angry. (was grouped in a KDY with a guardian that was leader, we had to kick one member because they wouldn't attack anything, and then this guy wouldnt requeue or pass lead) What everyone has to remember, especially on the forums, is that people pay to play this game. While it is not necessary to play the game it does unlock features and settings that are not available to the F2P. That being said when I go into a warzone or Flashpoint I expect people to not be completely undergeared and to know how to do the role they have chosen. I personally refuse to tank, because i am bad at it and i don't find it enjoyable. i just got my 55 sentinel fully pvp geared, while i admit he had some greens and blues i never once queued for ranked and i always warned those in my warzone that i was undergeared. I wasn't expecting to be carried but I knew I wasnt contributing all that much.

I don't understand why BioWare has put a level restriction on buying pieces of gear. It really makes no sense. I have a 55 Shadow, a 54 Sentinel, a 47 Sage, and a 46 Commando. My Sentinel is my pvper and I am capped with WZ comms. I want to buy his level 55 stuff before i hit level 55 so i know that i have it and i dont have to worry about farming at 55 for the gear. It is the same for PvE gear. If i do a whole bunch of level 50 ops before i hit 55 i should be able to buy my 55 stuff before i hit 55. All in all putting a level prerequisite on buying gear only slows down the transition from leveling to endgame.

best idea i have ever seen on this forum /signed.

In response BioWare do not dtop developing Endgame or guilds wont matter because the game will be dead.

This entire post is either a Troll or the OP is just very angry that he/she is wrong, imho.

Stop using Ad Hominem and actually tell us why players should be punished for farming chest? Just because you aren't able to do it doesn't mean others should be prevented from it. And anyway why does it matter if they have more creds than you? I make 500k to 1mil every time i go to do my dailies so why are you complaining? Farmers put into 10 times the amount of time you do so shouldn't they get 10 times more credits?

All of these ideas or game breaking. Farming is a part of EVERY mmo, people who choose to farm do so to make in game currency, if you don't want to farm that is okay. However, what you are asking BW to do is to punish people who put the time and effort into farming. I get that there are bots but a farming cap will not stop them it will only harm the players. And tying mobs to chests is just dumb why should i have to fight a group of mobs if i get to a chest without having to fight them. It falls into the category of punishing players for ingenuity.

your complaining that a cloth wearing, caster is squishy. nuff said

Verain fly something other than a bomber. Do Bombers need to be balanced: YES! no one here can deny that bombers are op in Domination and underpowered in TDM. Bombers are the only ship in which the SECONDARY weapons have an unlimited use.The "Mines have CDs"argument is not valid because all secondary weapons (i am excluding railguns as they require the shooter to remain stationary AND charge their weapon to fire) have CDS, on top of which other ships also have ammo restrictions. I personally am in favour of ammo restriction on mines. I also realizes that most people complaining about this purposed restrictions are bomber pilots who dont want their advantage (However, slight it is) to be removed.

So I have been doing GSF on various characters and I have a Clarion and a Pike however I've been leveling a new alt and am now torn between getting the Pike or Clarion first. I just wanted to get other peoples opinion on each ship.

They also said after their evaluation, that how their servers are setup and run do not allow for cross server PvP or any cross-server queues for that matter.

simple solution is to just always need. And you do need certain amount of rep to get gear and crafting schematics.
