  1. Hello. Quick question. I re-subbed and looks like I should get the new content (and expansions?) with a sub so I am asking do I need to download something or will it just unlock once my launcher updates the game since it has been awhile for me? Thanks!
  2. Ahhh so you mean why didn't they keep it pay to play and not go f2p? The core game as a sub is exactly what it is always been. All of those you just mentioned come with a sub. If you are thinking of going preferred status and have to purchase those unlocks, well that is tough. You are playing the game for free. So now to answer the question again now that I understand a little better at what you are getting at, I still don't feel like I got screwed over at all. I continue to pay $15 and I continue to get everything I did then.
  3. Nope. I pre-ordered the CE and never regretted once. I didn't buy it for the in-game fluff and vendor. I purchased it for all the other things that came with it. It was a one time purchase. Why should I feel entitled to more stuff now when I bought it 2 years ago? To add, and not trying to be rude so hopefully it won't come off that way, but I have no idea what you are really trying to say. Your paragraphs were hard for me to understand the way you worded things along with grammar issues which I was trying to figure out. So I replied off what I thought you were trying to get at. Again, English may not be your first language and everyone has typos or grammar issues, but I just had a hard time trying to get what you wanted to say.
  4. Please don't speak for me. They already have my respect because I love the game and I respect the job they have done so far. If they don't make anymore classes I would still love the game and be fine with that. I love all these armchair developers who think they know what's best for everyone and what everyone wants and what everyone should have. I especially love how this poster says they don't have "our" respect (since they are posting for all of us I guess) unless they create 4 new classes. LMAO
  5. I agree some, but I guess I am one of the only ones but I never really felt any laginess on any of the planets you mentioned along with load times which I never really noticed or took long enough to notice. That's why I would like to see more in depth planets again. Those felt more like a planet to me then Makeb did. But I am fine with any route they go.
  6. I don't think they will release a full blown expansion imo. It will likely be how RotHC was as I am sure it showed success. I would like to see a more in depth planet though in the next one like how one of the original planets were with a couple operations, new flashpoints and wz. Heck, maybe they are working on a full blown expansion too which would have a couple planets and a 10 lvl increase. Who knows though. I wouldn't hold my breath on a big expansion though. Not that it is a bad thing but just saying.
  7. Not really. Maybe take a business class son so you can understand things better.
  8. You should actually do some research first instead of posting through the SWG rose tinted goggles. First of all, SWG at its peak couldn't pass 300k subs and there wasn't even WoW out then. Didn't have tons of competition except mostly from UO, EQ and a couple others. Secondly, SWG was a sandbox box. It has nothing to do with BioWare and their version of SW. Completely different games other then both had lightsabers. Why not compare WoW to CoD? SOE did NOT make a mistake in pulling the plug on SWG. It did it for a reason. Maybe the 10-20k people left, if that and didn't feel the upkeep was worth it due to not making money. That was a smart business move. People seem to think that SWG was the almighty and had a strong player base when in fact it didn't. The majority of the people prefer theme parks vs sandbox games. If you don't believe me then how many active ones are there along with the active accounts? ToR at it's lowest still was way above SWG at its highest. Let's see how The Repopulation does as it is a full sandbox game along with EQ Next which may do okay because of its fan base but I bet Eq1 and EQ2 would still do better then EQ Next. The majority of the people want to see rewards for their efforts and completely hard end game bosses for gear is one way vs getting excited over farming gas with your harvester cluttering up the area and crafting a gun. Don't get me wrong I loved SWG because it was SW but mostly because it was my first mmo (other then UO which I only played for like a couple weeks because I didn't like it). But what made me love it so much was the community. Without them I may not have stayed as long as I did. I look back now and all I did in SWG was defending our guilds or allies bases during vulnerability, sit in a cantina and socialize, or go out and level new skills since you could change your skills in a matter of a couple days.
  9. So if let's say England, had a big name mmo. Do you really think they would cater to everyone else's time or be on their own time? I would say the latter. Also I would bet money that the majority of the active accounts are from players in North America vs Europe or Australia.
  10. I hear ya on that. I just wrote a letter to Topps and cc'ed the BBB, Michelle Obama, and the parking attendant at Knott's Berry Farm because I purchased 40 packs of baseball cards and didn't get the one I wanted along with a few packs had broken gum sticks. Such BS!!!!!!!
  11. Heh, it doesn't matter if they are stickyed or not. People seem to not see any thread right in front of them or there wouldn't be so many identical topics a lot of times. (Not just ToR but all other mmo forums this happens too)
  12. Nope, I'm not. They described exactly what a sandbox is. Good try though.
  13. You are talking about a sandbox version of SW which I know you are hinting at SWG. Already been done and bombed. They couldn't even get 300k active subs and this was before WoW and all the other mmo's after. No thanks to another sandbox SW. For me anyways.
  14. What is funny is even pvp based mmo's (claim to be) their pvp is even worse. Warhammer, Aion and GW2 were all supposed to be pvp focused and they all were horrible. Heck, GW2 is more about pve now then pvp. You would think the title alone Guild Wars would actually have some great pvp going on. So yeah, I have yet to see any hard core pvpers really happy with pvp in any mmo.
