  1. Ever since the patch, I seem to have a problem logging into the game. I can enter my username and password (and authentication) and then it goes to the "Shadow of Revan" title page and just sits there, if I click on it (windowed version) I'll get the "Not Responding" message at the top. I've already removed and re-installed the game and rebooted a couple of times and it just keeps happening the same way. Is anyone else having this issue?
  2. Just curious as to how YOU determine what is of the "most importance to a game"? As has been stated before there was some kind of indiscernable references about hoods and voice modulation, but how do those classify as MORE important to the community at large than growing the number of subscriptions, thus bringing more money into the game? And also, why does it have to be one or the other? Why can't they all be implemenented? Are you so upset about hoods and helmet voices that the idea of any OTHER features becomes threatening?
  3. Also, there are always situations where you, as the higher level guy, can't log on the same night as your friend, so they play alone and out level your character. Then it ends up going back and forth with one character not being the right level to play together. And you have to play a low level alone to try and catch up. It's unnecessary. It has nothing to do with what kind of "friend" you are.
  4. In City of Heroes and City of Villains, they had both "side-kicking" (bringing a lower level character up to YOUR level for the few abilities they had) and "exemplaring" (bringing the higher level character down to the level of the lower character so you could run their missions without affecting their XP). They also had a "debt system" when your character died, you would have a certain percentage or amount of your XP bar that would gather XP at 1/2 of the rate until the "debt" was paid off. "Exemplaring" didn't get XP for the higher level character doing lower level missions, but DID allow them to work off the XP Debt they may have incurred, so it benefited the higher level toons to run with the lower level ones. Personally, I have attempted to join my friends in their favorite MMOs, but with me having lower characters, we couldn't play together, so my desire to keep playing quickly left. I think it does make it difficult to try to keep a lower level character JUST to play with a friend if there are circumstances when one can get on and not the other, one of them always tends to out level the other and make it difficult to play together! Isn't playing WITH your friends one of the most important things to keep all of us playing and bringing in new players?
  5. I have heard talk of implementing a system that would allow high level characters to run missions alongside low level characters, similar to the "sidekick" system from City of Heroes/City of Villains. I think this would be a fantastic idea and it would definitely make it easier for us to help YOU guys (Bioware) grow the game by bringing in our friends and being able to play WITH them without having to delete a character on a full roster to re-roll a new character we possibly wouldn't want to play. It's a benefit to those new players who are coming in and want to play WITH their friends and it would also be a benefit to your established players who maybe have no real interest in re-running a story mode they may have already beaten once or twice (if not more). Although the story mode is fun and helps reate immersion in the game, once you've run it a few times, it tends to lose its charm. Aside from being able to help our "lowbie" brothers and sisters, it also allows us higher level characters a reason to roam the lower planets and possibly gather some crafting supplies or maybe we can think up some other benefits to "high levels" helping the lowbies (if playing with their friends isn't reward enough). I'd love to hear some ideas by other players on making this a viable reality. I think it's a VERY necessary tool to help grow the game. Is there any progress on Bioware's side or an approximate timeline on implementing this?
  6. I'm not sure if the apple version is the same or if anyone else is having this problem, but I can't log into the game with an authenticator key if it's going to constantly show the numbers in BLACK on a BLACK background. I have called customer support, have uninstalled and re-installed the authenticator multiple times and it will work a few times and then go right back to showing the numbers in black on a dark background. I have to try MULTIPLE times every time I log in to guess what numbers I am looking at. I have literally JUST TODAY called customer support and removed the authenticator, uninstalled it on my Samsung , reinstalled it, re-activated it and was able to see the numbers in orange for a total of ONE log-ins. Even if you can't rework the code to print in the same "easy to see" color on a consistent basis, you CAN at least change the background image to something brighter so we can see the numbers either way. We are talking about less than 10 minutes work and we all just download an update. Please fix this.
  7. Yeah, I actually put a red/black dye into it before I noticed the issue.
  8. Update I was getting a lot of people telling me to "repair" my files in my launcher. That's not it. I tried it and nothing changed.
  9. Is having all 3 (or more if incoming replacements make the same choice) abandon the group you are in because you are too under-geared to be of benefit to the team any less "humiliating" than being kicked from the group? I personally have no problem running flashpoints with people who are trying to learn the game, however, once you are into the realm of "Hard Mode Flashpoints", that ONE person can cause the entire team to wipe if they cannot handle their role in the group. While I agree that it can be upsetting to be voted out of a group, your friend needs to understand what is expected of him in a Hard Mode Flashpoint. If he doesn't have the capability to perform what is needed of him, he shouldn't be in the group. If you want to help your friend, help HIM/HER become a player capable of handling their responsibilities (through getting the gear needed) and stop asking everyone else around them to bend over backwards, compromise THEIR game experience, and make all the effort to make the game more enjoyable for the one person.
  10. I'm having a similar problem, but the funny thing is that mine is on a MALE toon and it seems to be giving me the "chest strap" that's supposed to only be on the female version of the outfit. My graphical glitch covers my entire upper body in a solid color under the straps so it shows as if I were wearing a spandex long sleeve shirt. I have the costume on a different server (Harbinger) and it's fine. I re-rolled the character on Bastion and I get a different version of the top after paying to release it to my entire account. Here is the side-by-side comparison of the two servers I'm really hoping they respond to this issue pretty soon. I've tried contacting them in several different ways and all I seem to get is silence. They even closed my bug ticket without responding to me.
  11. Thanks for the assist guys. I'll post the info to the devs and see if I can't get it fixed. Thanks much.
  12. I hope so. I really liked that look for this particular character. Darth Narcyss has to look like he is VERY happy with his appearance...hehe
  13. I inserted a link to the pic in the original post. But here it is again: http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c229/Jaavik/RelaxedVestments_zpsd343c8c1.jpg
  14. Right, but what I'm saying is that I have two male characters on two different servers wearing the exact same top, but one of them is a full shirt (or colored body) with a strap of cloth across the chest. Possibly it is the female version, in which I'll report it as a glitch. Hopefully it will be fixed, but I was initially under the impression that the outfit got "censored" or something. I'll try to post a picture of what I'm talking about.
