Pretty much my thoughts as well.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AWMBeLrZoyw IMO this is the basics of F2P.. if bioware tries to do another money grab because EA wants it, it will only sink this ship further.. I just hope EA/bioware are listening.

1. the game is broken, with many many issues. I know my self and others have addressed, I know for a fact that even some bioware employees had agreed and posted about in the beta forums before launch. While it looks stunning, you have failed to understand the wants and needs of MMO players. And the idea of a deliverable product. 2. If you think that statement is true you should really retire now. as YOU clearly have no clue what the player base wants as players. While I know F2P can be a good thing. If it is controlled or structured by EA, its going to end up like so many other company's they have destroyed. in the trash and completely useless. the real issue is you served both customer service and game play at a substandard. Sorry the excuse that it was a *new game* and a freshly launched game is not a good enough excuse. You say you have a couple games under your belt and have been in the industry for 12 years. You would think with the amount time in MMO games and with the amount of MMO games out there you would by now understand what they want. And with the technology level be able to at least produce a game at the current fielded level of the MMO gaming not take steps backwards. WoW wouldn't have 10million subs. EQ, L2 would not have lasted as long as they have. SWG still had subs until its forced closer. Other games that while they sucked still held on to subs and are able to continue functioning. And Eve one of the most brutal games out there still using a sub and slowly growing in players. 3. Again. You seem to be lost. It was not the issue at all. The problem was the content you put out was substandard and in some cases completely broken. I wont get in to the fact that what *bioware* said was going to be released and what was actually released was 2 completely different things. On a side note. Instead of focusing on continuing to turn this in to a money grab for EA I.E. turn the game in to F2P, you should have been focusing on fixing the issues at hand and listening to the customer base that you forcefully shunned and pushed away and fix the game at hand. PS. maybe you should have been the one in charge of the art department as the top tier gear is ugly as hell.. And by looking at your tattoo(or your tattooist) you have a better grasp at what looks cool then the current art department. Also the BS about developers leaving and what not is just that BS. its better to not say anything at all then to put out false statements. it make us think you think we are idiots or tools and don't actually follow whats going on behind closed doors. Some of us live in austin and know bioware employees. And it bothers me to hear from my friend about the truth and then see lies posted. Your *awards* mean nothing if the game is failing.... (PS: i apologize of for grammar errors and spelling.)

At first i was like troll.. then i saw your sig. and i was like. he played SWG.. he knows what a game looks like when its a complete and utter failure.. While SWTOR has issues. its not as bad as SWG .. yet.

This thread is awesome Even with its fail in before lock/delete because the mods have no sense of humor.. green tea, and mash poootatooo's.

I returned my to walmart.. i had 2 unopened boxes, i ordered online. problem solved.

Shh gamers are posting.. We obviously care more for the game then you. or you would be voicing your opinion of what needs to be fixed.. *Im not saying to cancel or stop liking the game. Just realize its not to what was promised or advertized nor up to par with the gaming standard. So instead of posting this why not just ignore the forums.. problem solved.

Not soon enough..

yes because this is still 2004, and haven't seen countless other mmo's rise and fall to learn from there mistakes. So by all means, lets launch a game going the same mistakes as others. Its funny, i hear how everyone complains about WoW, don't compare the game to wow its been out for 7 years. its not the same. but the second you say what a crappy start this game is you all go crying and scream how fail wow's launch was... So while i could understand some small issues, but even rift was smart enough to put in idea's from wow to keep them from looking like wow year one..

I like this, if only it was suggested during beta, or the FFA forums or even discussed by bioware before, it might have happened.. even though it had a hugh following. along with not making a cyborg race.. that should have been an option for current races.. I do hope they actually put it in. but i wont hold my breath.

what consequences? you mean the extra credits i get in the mail.. yeah, those are some serious consequences..

No i unsubbed, im still waited to get booted form the game and forums. /shrug Mind you hope they get there head out.. but right now its not looking so good to me.

If you are having trouble coming up with 2$ more a month for a game, this might be a sign to prioritize your life.. goals, work, family.. I could be wrong.. but its just a thought..

honestly id wait to reinstall.. the game is broken. the CS/forum mods are broken.

Thank you, bought 2 online(unopened), but i think ill return it to walmart. at least there I can return it for gift card and buy groceries with it. =) *edit; the first 30 days come with the purchase that IS NOT free. I paid for those. If it was free then i would not have had to buy the game in the first place.
