Did you even read my post? That's okay, I already know the answer to that question. You /could/ apologize, but I wouldn't expect that kind of display of maturity. Anyway, I'll probably get bored of asking, I already am. I'll switch to weekly updates to this question instead of daily. I'll see how long I last. At least six months, I suppose.

Day 2 of asking for an official explanation or adjustment to this quest.

Is there a good reason why this TUTORIAL quest requires a victory rather than just a completion to finish? Imagine being a level 10 new character, and you pick up this quest. You que up and, hopefully, get into a warzone match after less than an hour of waiting. Your level is equalized to end game and your team is down a player or two, making the match a 3v4 or a 2v4. You get completely stomped with no hope of victory - because you're new and only level 10 to 14 - thus wasting an hour or so of your day. Rinse and repeat a couple times before you finally give up. This frustrating scenario is exactly what is going on presently and for people like myself who are completionists, leaving a quest icon unfinished on the map (that isn't a repeatable quest) kinda sucks. Can someone from the team please explain to me the logic behind the decision on making this quest victory-only rather than just based on completion? We all know the days of big warzone battles are over, so you're lucky to get thrust into an imbalanced best two out of three arena anyway after nearly an hour of waiting in the que. I just want to complete this quest so I can move on and never look at PvP again, much like most of the community.

Why does the Introduction to Warzones quest require a win and not just a completion? Since there doesn't appear to be any sort of segregation between low level/new players and end game, it seems frustratingly counter-intuitive to require an actual win to complete the initial tutorial quest. As a completionist, having no interest in playing warzone-after-warzone because I'm inexperienced and can't seem to drum up a win to complete this abhorrent quest, just to get rid of the quest marker on my map, am I essentially crap out of luck? At least the Starfighter quest only requires a completion, not a victory...

Ohhh, shoot, yeah, I didn't even think about that. *shakes fist* Damn PvP, ruining things since Ultima Online and Asheron's Call. But on a serious note, it's true that there are "twinks" out there, WoW comes to mind for example - but doesn't the bolster system sort of make twinking moot? Either way, good point and noted (albeit unhappily, heh). On a sidenote, I've actually done stuff like that too (related to the Mandalorian Armor) but on 1-player games. Anyway, thanks for clearing that up. Kinda disappointing because I'd really love to be able to continue being challenged as I progress. But it was a nice thought while it lasted, heh. Juggling gear and powers...ehhh, just isn't worth the trouble to try and hold my character back.

Basically, what would be ideal for me is to be be able to create a "cut off" limit on experience gain so that when I proceed to the next area, I haven't already out-leveled it (while also out-leveling the current area I'm in). For example, let's say the world after Coruscant starts at...level 20. (Again, just throwing a number out there for the sake of debate.) But to complete all the stories and missions in Coruscant, it would take me to, let's say, level 25. So now when I get to the next world, I'm already way over leveled for it. And all I wanted to do was experience every story. So, with that example in mind, now I suggest putting in a way to stop your experience gain so players who want to can halt their gains until they progress to the new area. So they can still experience every story that they want and continue to be challenged by the game. Now, this improves my "quality of life" in the game and other like-minded players. It does not directly effect anyone else negatively or positively. You argue that this is untrue. So I ask you, how does this directly effect your game play, quality of life, and/or gaming experience? Because from my point of view, it doesn't. So if you could please elaborate, perhaps there is something I just haven't thought of that could directly tamper with someone other than the person choosing to turn his experience on/off. In which case, well, it was good idea to me, but just an idea. Even that aside, I fail to see how this could be a bad idea. But that's why I posted my idea here, so that people can tell me why it's a good or bad idea. So far, you've disagreed, but you haven't told me why. Unless you were intentionally not going to explain yourself. I'd imagine that'd just be counter intuitive to the point of posting in this thread to begin with though.

Speeders - That is very, very cool. Quite happy with that change. I always said (when the game first came out) that they ought to cut the requirements down a bit on the speeders. All anyone wants to do is ride those hover bikes anyway, lol. Myself included! Legacy Gear - Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh (continue this for awhile as it just hits me) hhhhhhhhhhhhh...So it's gear that isn't bind on pickup, but bind to your account. I get it. Sort of like uh, oh I forget what it's called, but I get it now. Very cool! It sort of saves you the trouble of having to hunt for equipment as you go the second+ time around.

Did they change the levels at which you can get vehicles/mounts/speeders? Or was it always 15/25/35? I can't seem to remember.

So if it's not something I should be concerned about till 50, why are there vendors in places (I.E. Coruscant - sorry if I murder the spelling of that world!) for lower level players with items for sale marketed to said lower levels? Sorry, this is a bit confusing for me. When looking at the items in the store, it shows tiny little icons in the lower right signifying how much it costs - the problem is, hovering your mouse over these little icons doesn't tell you what they are. So you're left guessing (if you aren't already familiar with them) what in the world you need to buy the gear.

Did you even read what I wrote? (Rhetorical question, the answer is glaringly obvious.) It's not about being barred from accessing content. It's about the freedom to choose when you gain experience and when you don't so that you can access all the content on an even platform rather than "roflstomping" through the content because you out-level it so quickly. It's not hurting/harming/effecting -anyone's- gameplay to add an option to switch your experience gain on and off. So why not? If this were to get implemented and you didn't like it, you have the freedom to NOT utilize it. And at the same time, your gaming experience doesn't change at all. At the same time, the gaming experience of the players who'd appreciate something like this improve at no cost to anyone else. So I'm mystified as to why anyone would have a problem with it at all.

They'll never get rid of it. It's a shame. (I seem to recall once upon a time during beta when they promised they'd never make the mistake of inputting a PvP stat.)

I am a true RPG player. I love stories, I love immersing myself in the worlds that I am allowed to explore. Because of these loves, I don't like missing -anything-. I'm what is commonly called "The Completionist". "Someone who, when playing a video game, has to collect all of a certain item, or complete something in the game 100%." In most games, this works out very well but in MMOs, it tends to punish you, in a way (bare with me, I'll elaborate). You'll notice that the more you do, the more experience you gain. Therefore, the quicker you gain levels. The inherent problem, in my eyes, is that you out-level content. So, you may ask, "Well, why is that a problem?". Good question! Allow me to go into detail. When you out level content, everything becomes easier. *You may or may not want things to be easier. If you're like me, you enjoy a challenge or at least a danger of consequences for poor choices. When you do everything and you begin to out-level content, that fear of danger goes away and things become redundant and just not fun. *When things stop being fun, the immersion corrodes and you stop paying attention. *Sometimes you may want to take a break from questing and try out PvP - or Flashpoints. The problem here, is that you still gain experience from these. (The problem as it pertains to the Completionist, not the game in general.) After a Warzone or Flashpoint, you're even closer to that next level than prior to "taking a break" to change things up from questing. In a way, you're being punished for wanting to try everything. Now, before everyone throws up their arms and cries "He wants to get rid of the many avenues for leveling this game has!" That's not the case at all! Here is what I am suggesting: Allow an option to turn off experience gain. That way, you can, in a way, set the difficulty to your gaming experience by choosing what level you want to be at to confront content. You can still do everything in the game, thus satisfying a niche group of players (like myself) without directly effecting the gameplay of others. I am not very good at "debating" on the forums, I'm not a frequent flyer, as it were, so I hope I've stated my case for this pretty well. I'm already a paying customer, I bought the game when it first came out and I love Star Wars (as any true nerd should). From the standpoint of someone who has never worked in game development or code or any of that, it seems like an easy decision to include something like this. I truly hope someone who represents Bioware will read this and take it into consideration. Thank you if you took the time to read this. TLDR version: Add an option to turn off experience gain so we don't out-level content as we do Flashpoints, Warzones or just simply want to experience the entire area of a planet and all the missions/quests/events that it offers.

I'm not familiar with the old daily hubs. Are these places I can get to at level 15?

What are "construction kits" and where can I find them? I noticed there are Legacy vendors and they sell pretty awesome gear, but these kits are required...

The joke is on the OP. Bioware still squeezed 60 more days of paid game time out of him. Sorry dude. I'm not a PvP fan, but you've pretty much hit the mark. Damn shame too, but I doubt they'll even give you the time of day with an official response.
