  1. When I played WoW it seemed like Vent was the only thing anyone ever used, so for years I only had Vent and was very resistant to DL anything else when ToR came out and I met people using TS and Mumble. But then I realized they take like 2 minutes to get and set up, and there's no point in not having all three. If I WAS going to arbitrarily refuse to get one of them, it would be Mumble though, not Vent!
  2. Shopping the CM is not a playstyle. It's an online store. Sure you can use things you buy there in game, but if your 'playstyle' is 'I buy outfits/speeders/pets on the CM and drive around fleet with them' you should probably look into Second Life. You can say that 'casual' is a playstyle, and sure, I think some mounts should be made available through casual play (and there are). But you're just being entitled to demand all the mounts when you refuse to participate in all parts of the game. Besides, if this mount were actually on the CM you wouldn't care about it. It only seems cool because very few members of the player base have access to it, so when you see someone with it you know they're awesome, and then you want it to. If every mouth breather with a credit card could get one, it would lose 80% of its appeal.
  3. If you have max affection with vette and you've completed her companion missions then yes, you are locked out my friend. If you haven't started Act III yet, then there may be hope.
  4. Yeah as far as cutesy girls go Vette knocks Mako out of the park. More funny and less whine. But we're all beautiful snowflakes, my favorite comps are Jorgan, Gault, Andronikos, and I'm more confused about Vector but just listing him anyway.
  5. Hmm I believe I see what you're saying, though I'm not sure it's necessary. The lore-conscious player will likely level through every planet's story content, and as such will experience every bit of story content sequentially until they hit 50. At 50 it admittedly gets a bit confusing, maybe. The end of the class quest leads you to Ilum. In real time they later released the Black Hole, and then later Section X. Honestly the 'story' of these zones is pretty insular - as long as you do Black Hole after you did Corellia and Section X after Belsavis, it's fine. They don't really compete with Ilum on a timeline if I'm remember them right, so not being sure which 50 daily area to do first won't really mess up any continuity even if you do them 'out of order.' Makeb however does need to be completed after finishing Ilum (and thus the class story)(also Battle of Ilum and False Emperor) if you don't want any holes. I would think someone interested in the storylines would do Ilum (and the connected FPs) since the class quests really do funnel you in there. Although I know there was an issue with your ship's holo giving you a spoiler-ridden quest to go to Makeb when you hit 48 or so and unlikely not done with story. If they haven't fixed that yet sheeesh. I can see some traps for those not wanting spoilers via the LFG system. If you queue for an FP while finishing your class story on Corellia you could very well get BoI or FE. I have no idea how your toggle idea could even work, but I'd suggest BW marking those FPs, as well as BP, Foundry, etc. as 'story FPs' or something, and then defining a story FP as one that is a continuation or culmination of a plot begun by quests planet-side. Most people would ignore this, but the lore-conscious person who doesn't want to be confused or have things spoiled wouldn't.
  6. You're asking to not have to do any side quests? I believe that option is already available.
  7. Gave this thread 5 stars. The higher level players get no XP from the mobs of FPs they get randomly put into (seriously why can that even happen), and their mere presence robs the lower level players of the XP they'd otherwise get. Lose lose here! Tighten up the level windows so no one is fighting gray mobs, and loosen the level range where XP isn't nerfed.
  8. It's just a shameless ploy to get people on the facebook page. I suppose it's annoying, but I still went because I was curious (although I DID check dulfy first because I'd rather not indulge this sort of thing, but dulfy wasn't up yet). Pretty uninspiring, as someone else said, but these packs usually are. So yes let's let BW know we think they're being annoying and stupid, but no need to get so frothy since dulfy is up to date now if you're on on such a crusade against facebook you won't even give them a hit.
  9. I love long epic quest chains, but epic weapons in this game would probably be pretty underwhelming. I mean, Snipers, Commandos, and to a lesser extent Operatives and Vanguards are the only classes that use weapons even big enough to be noticeably cool looking or eye-catching (which come on, is the main selling point of the epic weapon). Lightsaber hilts are pretty boring, and cooler color possibilities for the crystals are guaranteed CM items. As for blasters, honestly I don't care what my PT uses because the thing's barely noticeable. Also any cool-looking weapon idea they come up with (just look at that Cathar War Staff thing) is going on the CM. They'd probably consider using the coolest design they could come up with on a weapon that should be very difficult to get and (hopefully) sub only as a waste when it could be a on the CM raking it in. But epic quests for comps I'd like to see more of (like HK but longer and less... boring)... maybe one to get a new spaceship would be cool... even just a title and I'd do it.
  10. Either a DA or an ME MMO... I'd pee my pants in excitement.
  11. For people filling chat with nonsense I prefer report spam. In my dreams maybe some punishment will befall them. But for the people that make it on my ignore list, I don't really care how big it gets or if I have to wait any longer in queue (though since I'm either tank or heals and I overwhelmingly ignore DPS, I doubt its affecting me), because as someone else said, I'd rather not play at all if I have to play with them.
  12. It was 2.1 for me. I went from never waiting for anything to load to growing used to waiting for the bank, mission terminals, and the worst offender, the customization kiosk, to appear. I imagine new players are confused about a lot of fleet amenities. As for people missing the advanced specialization mission, in an ideal world if you show up on Coruscant/Kaas unspecialized you get chewed out by Zash/Barus/Keeper/Crysta/Garza/whoever for not being more observant.
  13. Yeah I saw 5 seconds of a video of her speaking and I said no. I think literally any other species and I'd get it. And damn the poster above for me for mentioning Ortolans! Now I'm just depressed.
  14. You basically said you hoped anyone who gave you words of caution wouldn't be so bitter and angry anymore about their own failed romances. Perhaps passive aggressive wasn't the right term. More like condescending.
  15. What? If a minimum gearcheck is not casual-friendly, then the 55 HM FPs themselves are not casual-friendly. Gearcheck would be a lot more friendly than votekick actually.
