"OR needs to be in EVERY legacy unlock. Legacy level X OR 5mil credits (or whatever). Thats the whole POINT of the legacy system (i thought). You raise your legacy level just like you would any level, you advance through the levels and gain access to certain abilities, bonuses and benefits. Some of the legacy unlocks, i can tolerate, things that cost under 10K? fine.. thats not all that big a deal, but 100K and up? thats just unacceptable. You have to work hard to get your legacy level to some of these ranks, and then you also have to lay out credits, basically doubling the work you have to do. I can only feel its an attempt to drain credits out of the economy and i (hope) they didn't think it was totally reasonable

More options. Why can i only have one option on either direction? Why can't i have a fan of connections all around my character, instead of like 3-4? Different/more connections. Why can't i just assign a connection line, pick an icon, then just put in a text box what this connection means. "Cousin" "Apprentice" "Lover" "Spy" "Old Friend" instead of the ones we have, which are pointless anyway because you can't see what the label is you just have to remember what the icon means Connecting with other people. Right-click, apply to link legacies, they say okay, and you can add in where you want their characters to go. Then they approve it and bam, you've just connected your legacy to someone else. As it stands, the restrictive connections (in amount and type) ruins any sort of varied race group. Not to mention the whole thing is entirely pointless since as far as i know there is no way for anyone else to see this legacy tree so it is entirely a masturbatory exercise and does nothing for anyone but yourself, and even then it means nothing and isn't even fluid, its blocky and restrictive. I'm actually fairly disappointed (for me the best part was the UI manager, how sad is that?), the legacy unlocks are underwhelming (and most cost far too many credits), the legacy tree itself is pointless and a waste (how long did they actually spend on that? seriously..) The unlocks for maxing a race to 50 are okay, unless you happen to have two of one race and since you're locked to 8 characters you'll have to delete on to complete other races and.. yeah. Underwhelmed. its not awful but i see a lot of wasted potential i hope they build on. Connecting legacies with other players, better legacy connections, a better tree. the one we have now is really awkward, it needs to be more free, click and drag where you want things, then click between two portraits to create a connection, then name the connection whatever you want, as is it, its very awkward and blocky and restricted. But like i said above, its entirely moot because no one but you can see it anyway and it doesn't connect to anyone but your own characters so its entirely an internal thing. I just had to also comment on this. "Why should i play a character i don't really want to play" The answer is you shouldn't. Making character classes fun to play is paramount, but more than that, you can't make everything something everyone loves. What you shouldn't be doing is grinding through class stories you don't even like just so you can buff the hell out of the character you DO like. If you like all the classes and class quests, thats cool, go nuts with it. But at the same time, that doesn't mean that you should use those classes that you don't like as a treadmill to grind buffs. This has the side effect of basically meaning if you have the time and inclination to spend hours and hours grinding (and it IS grinding if you don't really want to do it) a whole class to gain (in those examples) incredible advantages. That seems to go against the spirit of the 'fun of the game', when it just becomes a chore, and a job to grind out levels on a character you don't even like for end-game bonuses.

it could just be early art assets, that is, at some point there was a model that looked like that and it was used for the loading-hints and was never changed later in development.

I assume (Note, assume) That like all other legacy bonuses that originate from the character these are tied to the account, and not the character in question. Think of the options as a tick box in your account server-database. Everything starts unticked but as soon as you got that level 50, it got ticked and regardless of the characters your delete that tickbox will stay on. Same thing as if you delete ALL the characters on your account, on that server, your legacy and everything attached to it will remain the same until the end of time. That legacy is always going to remain (and update) regardless of the characters on the server (unless you move the account to a new server like with the AP transfers)

Thats what i was thinking, i would have thought that they would have opened up at least a couple of servers for a lot of the transfers to go to, people who didn't have a lot of people on one of the servers, ones tht just wanted to play on a local server. But the server transfers have to be submitted within one week (by April 24, 2012, 2:01PM EST) so obviously they aren't going to be bringing out any new servers for it and you can't exactly wait to find out. I find it strange to see the servers under 'Heavy Load' during peak times, but they are just letting the influx of transfers go to those servers, it seems a recipe for long queue times, and then they might bring out new servers, but its too late by then. I'll probably end up transferring SOME characters, like all my empire characters to be on the safe side, but it still seems silly. I was just wondering if anyone else had noticed this or if i was just being overly cautious

I searched around for this but either its lost or i just can't find it.. or i'm the only one thinking about it. With only three AP servers, and (apparently) a lot of people really excited to move, myself included, i have one small question, and concern. often i see the servers as 'heavy load' or 'very heavy', since i've been checking it recently, and thats fine. but i've been told by people that the servers are sometimes FULL. If they are sometimes full already, and they are going to get a big influx of players, aren't they going to be full more often now? I don't want to transfer my characters over so i can play with all my friends only to find myself stuck in queues or something and not be able to play at ALL What do people think?

I don't mind the new layout, what i can't stand is the COLOURS. I do a lot of work on computers, a lot of work for and on websites, and even when i'm not working and just surfing, going from dark backgrounds and light text, to white backgrounds and black text gives me a headache and makes it hard to read for any length of time. I'm actively avoiding the forums a lot not because i can't go back and forth too much.

So, i know this is my fault, i didn't really think it through i guess, but i feel its pretty poor that in transfering servers you lose your guild, and thus your guild bank and thus the 600,000 credits it cost you to get it. Assuming i'm right (anyone feel free to correct me) but since you lose your guild i'm sure you lose your guild bank as well. Can anyone confirm is this is the case? I'm sure it is but i've been wrong before.

I'd also like to know this

I totally agree.. If anything i can't understand why you can't have your own tags. Why have pre-set options and not just an input box to put your OWN tag as to what they are.. Define an angle of the line (there is only up and down? ***?) and say "Apprentice" or "sibling" (or better yet, brother or sister) and so on. I was setting mine up, it was kinda fun.. But then i reliased you can only have ONE 'line' of connection, once you connect to either side you can only make children? Seems silly. Also.. personally if i asked for anything for the legacy tree? I want to be able to add other players to the three. Click on them, say 'add to legacy tree' (not the legacy itself, just the tree' So i can have connections to more than just my own characters (which seems kinda moot) and with other people i'm playing with. I have a friend and we have a little storyline going. I'm level 50, she's working up towards that level. So she's playing the apprentice (which is an options we want like you said), but she can't go on the tree, so the tree is only useful for your own characters and no connections to other people, which is a shame.

Why not make it the same as it takes to make a guild. Why does it have to be 12, and not 6? Is it purely so you can't just use a bunch of alts from one person and thus get the bank? I just don't get why its 12 instead of six, me and my friends can make a guild but not have a bank because we need more people so we either make more alts (making the whole thing moot) or we don't get one? Just stupid.

I believe it was, which is a little annoying since i just bought my level 50 one but, whatever, there are bigger issues (guild bank being ridiculous is just one of them)

The guild i'm in is made up of about 5-6 people who play on and off during the week, most aren't even level 40 yet. 600k just to have a guild back AND you have to have 12 people in your guild. Thats a big harsh isn't it? Even without the 600K, we can't do it anyway because we don't have 12 people in the guild, even with alts its only about 8. I suppose we could all make a bunch of alts to put into the guild but that sort of makes the whole thing kinda silly, doesn't? Whats the point of putting a limit on the amount of people in your guild? What, my small 6-man guild isn't GOOD enough for you to give me a bank account? Totally ridiculous

Count Dooku was PRETTY evil and all he looked was old.. Besides we're getting off topic here a little. If you have an on/off switch, why shouldn't there be a slider? or something to customize it at least. You cant' say "well if you're evil you have to look that way" because you can just turn it off. Plus not ALL the sith looked like that either. In fact it seemed that the MORE powerful the sith the more they were able to retain their look and NOT let the dark side of the force corrupt them physically. Asajj Ventress for example didn't look all veiny and horrible. Its really a visual choice. SOME sith did, because they were supposed to look horrible and evil, others didn't because they were supposed to look awesome or cool. (there is a red twi'lek whose name i forget ((talon?)) who was also pretty evil and didn't look like she was popping veins everywhere.)

I don't care about it being on my phone, i don't need it to be mobile. I just want a way to be able to check the LEVEL of my crew skills, so i don't have to keep logging into different characters to see what they are at. It would also be nice to be able to check my current gear on other characters so i can compare it to the things i'm crafting on another. I would like to be able to see what my Inquisitor is wearing while on my Juggernaut so i know if what i'm crafting is better or worse than what she is wearing. Or when i'm on my Bounty Hunter i would like to see what mods my Marauder has on his chest piece so i know if i can make something better, and so on. Being able to do this would be amazing and would help a lot, being able to see the skill level of the crew skills on various characters would be good as well. LOTRO has a version (mylotro) that lets you see what you're wearing, what crafting skills you have and even what quests you most recently completed
