I agree, it is pretty small but I think they priced it correctly for the size and the content given. So kudos from me for that as it would have been easy to try and charge another 5 or 10 squids for it.

I capped my weekly Rishi rep just before I hit Yavin as I still have a pile of items to turn in next week, so if I missed anything it can't of been much. I did find it odd that I was so far away as I had taken my time because I enjoy the story. **not a spacebar commander** Anyway, as I said I ran daily's and FP's for a couple of session's until I dinged. My gripe was the culmination of a good few, avoidable bugs, that have marred would could have been very very good IMO

I have no idea why you would insinuate I would be lying? Why would I do that? I mean it is not like I am the only one reporting this, I have read many people the same. I ran all quests I could right through to The Enemy Within where I was halted. I ran solo the whole way with a 25% XP boost (used 3 major ones in total iirc). I finished at 57.5. Now could there be some other bug at play? Who knows? I wouldn't be surprised

Well the 2 levels you got out of Forged Alliances that I didn't have access to would have put me at 59.5 when I got halted at the final boss and then the difference would have been probably your 7% guild XP! Having existing toons being 2 levels behind the pre-determined levelling arc prior to setting foot on the first planet, (even 1 level behind), on a 5 level arc is an issue.

With all due respect, I would not describe this expansion as huge. There have been some wholsesale changes to characters and combat, but it isn't "huge". Overall I would have given it a 6.5 out of 10 however if these bugs and problems had not occurred, which were wholly avoidable, it would be a 9 out of 10 for me. I'm still playing but it has left a sense of disappointment

Selling the packs on GTN is quick and easy

I'm loving this. You uber founders do realise this is a leisure product right? You do realise you are customers? To run somebody down because they voted with their feet on a sub par commercial release is a lolathon. It's a game, not some sort of vocation.

Before I start I want to make it clear this isn't a throw my toys out the pram, I quit thread. I'm a a guy in my 30's, I grew up. This is just some hopefully constructive criticism via my experience with SoR. When I saw the expac announced, and the x12 XP, I thought to myself "lets give the game another go". It had been a while and the x12 XP really sold it. Whomever thought of that needs a major pat on the back. I enjoyed playing again so much I resubbed. I dropped cash money on Cartel Coins. I was looking forward to early access. I was running OPs and Flashpoints again and was even looking around for a guild to join on The Red Eclipse. Early access begins and I was loving the story, I had already completed forged alliances prior to early access so my appetite had been whetted for the story, unfortunately unbeknown to me, this would come back and hit me hard later. The ability delay was back and reminded me of launch but I played through it then till it got fixed so I knew the same will happen again. No biggy. I worked my way through Rishi, ran with the 25% XP boost the whole time, ran through Yavin doing all quests available until I got to the Enemy Within and the memories came back as to why I left. The culmination of an excellent storyline. The option to run it solo. I was thinking Bioware have really thought about things nowadays and haven't gated the ending of stories behind Ops and then BLAM. The finale of an excellent story incompletable due to hideous bugs. OK I thought, this isn't my first rodeo, this happens. Annoying it is THE big fight but hey ho. I then note I am in fact only level 57.5 even though I did every quest available to me and ran with a 25% XP buff the whole time. It took me 2 days of grinding dailies and Flashpoints until I dinged 60. I didn't like that. What I did like was I had enough basic comms to buy a full set of 186 gear which opened up all the content for me. Another pat on the back. Until I ran a Hard Mode flashpoint and noted it didn't count towards my weekly. Hit up the forums to discover this too is a bug. I then also discover the final bosses of the Ops are bugged and not dropping loot properly, so there is another piece of content off the menu for me until patch day, and to top it all off I discover the post saying from now on all training costs will be free, after I had spent several hundred thousand credits training my new skills. So : Finale boss fight bugged Ability delay Not enough XP even with the boosts Content completion not counting towards weekly goals Loot bugs Training cost debacle Bugs are bugs. That's fine, as I say it isn't my first rodeo, I can live with it but there NEEDS to be better communication. I wouldn't have spent the credits on my training had this change been better communicated. The message in my launcher is still about last weeks downtime! There is no excuse for that. C'mon Bioware, you were so close to something very very good. The game bugs would have been discovered in an open beta. I know you want to protect your story but I am sure we would rather have a working game with some spoilers. Sorry for the wall text crit TL;DR

I wouldn't worry a great deal about gearing if I were you. Makeb is the last levelling arc zone. Oricon etc are daily zones. The new area needs to fit into the levelling arc so you will be vectored from Makeb, to the new area. Therefore Makeb gear should be enough to start the arc in the new zones otherwise when you level a toon from 1 - 60 there would be a huge, highly complained about, gear gap between Makeb and the new place. If you are sitting on 156 Oricon basic gear you will be golden.

You in the market for a bridge by any chance? I happen to have one for sale. PM me.

50 million? As in 50,000,000 or should it be 50,000,000.00 ??

If anyone "needs" these changes to enable them to not buy things for way overprice on a very clear marketplace I suggest their ability to leave the house unaided be reassessed. There will be far greater dangers they will be susceptible too if this is an issue for them.

There is no scam *waves hand*

In a free and open capitalist market place? It most certainly does.....

Another vote for the Naga. There is a learning curve to it, but they provide handy little raised rubber temporary stickers to train your thumb to hit the right button. Once you learn it you will literally not be able to play without it. Having 12 buttons under your thumb is a game changer, literally.
