  1. The heroic missions still have the same issues as the normal space missions - combinations of ship and mission that have your laser weapons with the same color as the enemy ion trails so you wind up targeting your own shots, fires and smoke that hugely obscure target areas (which are like pinpoints on the screen sometimes anyway), the targeting reticule vanishes into the background colors, proton torpedoes that take a long time to lock but break lock in a millisecond, etc. There just isn’t any room for error in the heroics.
  2. When I played EverQuest through a couple waves of server merges, they were very explicit about telling the players that, though the server retained one of the two names, it was considered a new server, and the players from both old servers were merged as equals. I’m on SS as a result of whatever merges occurred while I was inactive. I had three or four characters get new names, and one that was flagged as needing a change but it cleared without letting me actually change the name. A forced merge is the only reason I’d leave SS, mainly because I don’t play multiplayer and I don’t want to move characters piecemeal - I want the whole legacy moved at once.
  3. I’d be more willing to use tokens to buy additional Jawa intel items if they didn’t run on a continuous timer. I think they should run 60 minutes of game time, not clock time. That said, I’m in the 400s now. While the drop rate is low, the Jawa intel seems to about double my rate. I’ve used three, I think, while doing some long flashpoints.
  4. The last time I used it (at the GS5 launch), it was in the Account page at the very bottom of the page. It’s a link, and it can be hard to spot. Edit not the account link from the forum page, but the SWTOR.com page. My swtor, then my account, then sign into your account. Should be bottom of that page.
  5. I’m sure his “we stuck a fork in our customer base” letter will go over well.
  6. The Copero SH should have a PA announcement every 20 seconds for “House Inrokini!” No reason to leave that soundtrack in the flashpoint. Make the ability to turn it off one of the later reward track payout.
  7. I had a CC failure when the card renewed with the same account number, but a new security code. The account interface for SWTOR allowed for updating a credit card number, but not a security code. The last time I had to update to a new card, I wound up having to delete the old card and enter a new payment method. That caused all sorts of issues and reset my account status to new, so I hoped the payment would go through. The next payment failed because of the change in security code, so I had to completely change my payment because of the code. If your card renewed, that might have been your issue.
  8. I’m not big on the romances in general. I like the Revan era Lana, so several of my characters pick up on her, and I also like Theron’s voice acting and dialogue. But yeah, I don’t know what it is about Major Anri - maybe the voice, the accent, or the projected confidence but I like that character a bunch as well.
  9. I did the classic “see the GS6 announcement, sign up and it’s too soon” bit. Hopefully it will go soon. The only character I’m actively leveling is almost ready to start Corellia, and the only good thing about Corellia is finishing it.
  10. If they were listening to just a few forum whiners, they’d have responded to the dozens asking for a chance at Altuur.
  11. It’s interesting that they had to take down all the servers to move Leviathan. There’s obviously some cross connection between the systems. If they were fully independent, whoever is running the show could stop and restart each of them individually. As I recall when Star Forge needed attention earlier this summer, Satele Shan was bounced as well. Any word on performance changes for Leviathan? Is the latency improved?
  12. My understanding of the official seasons (if there is one) is Spring lasts from the vernal equinox to the summer solstice, then summer lasts from the solstice to the autumnal equinox, when fall begins. Fall lasts from the autumnal equinox to the winter solstice, and winter lasts from the solstice to the vernal equinox. Then it all repeats. Here in south Texas, practical summer lasts from mid-May to mid-October. Spring and fall are variable, and winter lasts about 6 weeks in January and February. If your garden isn’t planted by March, the sun will likely burn it up before harvest is done.
  13. I played the first 18 months or so, starting at early access. Going from a memory more than 10 years ago, there was a large thread early in the game where the developers were taken to task (fairly severely as I recall) for too many very revealing outfits. The developers agreed to back off the skin and provide outfits that covered a great deal more. As far as the outfits Steve detailed, I don’t think many are generally available. I think they cycle rarely through the CM, and are otherwise on the GTN at extravagant prices. I’m sure he knows the availability much better than I. I find the slave girl outfits a little too skimpy for running around in public, and much of the rest not all that attractive. I’d like something sexy but not too revealing for my female characters, but I couldn’t really describe exactly what I’d want to see.
  14. I play solo on SS and probably wouldn’t take anything less than a forced transfer anywhere because I don’t want to. I play irregular times and durations, and I tend to log in to do something specific. It’s hard to be group oriented when nothing you do in game flanges up with group content. Of course, I’m also not posting for my preferred play style under the guise of “best for my server”, either.
  15. Short of mergers, it would be useful for whoever codes this game now to offer an account move (or legacy) at a reasonable price. The per character charge gets pretty high for someone who wants to move everyone and everything to a different server.
