People who defend the position that MMO's are really all about grouping, just don't understand. Its like they have a blockage in believing we solo'ists, we adventurers, we happy band of brothers, They think we're pulling their leg or something LISTEN: If you think MMO's are strictly one, or the other way of gameplay..(grouping, soloing) you'd be wrong. We both can co-habit a game, and play the styles and ways we want. I didn't buy into this game to "put up" with people telling me I'm wrong about what I like or don't like. Ta, very much. Join your group, instance out of sight, and we'll be traversing the World, happy playing the way we want ..... Capiche?

what you have now is an Action MMO feel. Rather than a well fleshed out history, and story line. Start thinking of your next big upgrade NOW, so the story can be filtered in to the current game, and wont feel like we didn't see their arrival coming, but with ddread...See the great story line ? Come on guys, it feels like you just pulled most things out of thin air, and never added any weight to them. Keep trying, seriously, The game is still here, and salvageable. We will forgive this once.

The suspension of dis-belief has gotten harder to do. I said in game chat, that I felt it reminded me in a lot of ways, of when SWG was put to death by their big, "Reset combat and everything else" upgrade. "Star Wars Galaxies". The exact same comments are being made now about this "expansion". I wont go into details about what I personal feel. But I feel very safe, and on board, with what the OP was trying to say, that this is a huge sucking chest wound, to the life of STWoR

90%..hm interesting. Give my your source for that info if you don't mind. Seriously, pulling supposedly fact statistics out of the air, is a bit silly.

Lets all take a step back, and really dissect what they've done. Personally, It started with a bad tasted in my mouth, and continues today. I just don't understand some of these changes? What are the Dev''s thinking?

I call the update a failure. Its got the same feel to it as the total screw up of Star Wars Galaxies. Why have they done these changes that feel like we're developing backwards. Oh man. I waited for this for so long and now I couldn't care less about this game now. Any emotional type attachments that made the game more alive, ie: companions, NPC's..etc are fudged up or gone, or you get unwanted comps back??? Why can't I choose? You can't tell me how to play. Don't give me something I like, and then rip them out. Done!

I think this has given me the nudge to bow out gracefully and move on. I have been here since the early start. Always play, "subscriber". What is so frustrating is I really believed we'd get the Star Wars MMO we wanted down the road a bit. Not happening. They seem to be trying to develop this game, while up to their necks in muck. Not that today I was to have all the rewards, didn't get one. Didn't get my hologram working on my ship, either. Thanks, appreciate it. Do not ever ask me for money again.. Its not just this so called expansion, its been building for a while.

Jaded gamers . Sad to read.

What a bunch of hypocrites some of you are. Some are busting the op's chops because he obviously loves SWTOR If that's not why you're here, you are just trolls.

Intangibles. It gives you the chance to play over again with no back door help from your stable. It sounds dramatic because it is. And that's why people do it. They "have" to level a character now, with all your characters still playable you're not really starting over. I've done this in many MMO's. It can put life back into the game you love playing but has gotten a little predictable. Its the intangibles that make doing this seem fun and exciting. To each their own play style.

Vanguard...A delight to play. Go full on dps, or a much needed Tank, With a tank spec on a Van I never died once under 20 levels. And if you have the urge to play the bad guys, Go Powertech.

I don't get their goals for SWToR. I mean not a mention of a new class, new advanced classes. Nothing in the road map to indicate anything about character progression, and story driven leveling. Just forget about the space side of things. Its too late. You had a chance with it at the beginning, now just let it go. Put your eyes totally on terra-ferma and give the folks what they want. Why wouldn't you? Honestly, there was nothing in what I read that got me hopeful in the slightest. And you layed it out for the year ahead. What a downer. I've been staying a subscriber because I believed we'd get more class, skills, story, 5 more levels at least,. I have a feeling that the developers have stopped trying to get new players. They are doing the m inimal to keep the die-hards around. What a shame.

If you like circle dancing in a fish bowl then I can see how you would like GSF. Its nothign more than a simple arcade game in a very limited area,

And now I know why the ignore list is a concern of yours.

This is a MMO. The space update is not. The update belongs in the genre of arcade shooters. Why do we get all the development time and money spent on something that has nothing to do with being a part of a MMO. Its like, need a break from the MMO? Jump into a cockpit - less space toy and float around shooting anything that looks red. Its really a bad update guys. Is this best you're creative minds can come up with? We are treated more and more like moron's who will buy anything you're selling. No more subbing. I've been in this game since early head-start. If I play after sub runs out in a few days, it will be on a free to play account. After the hundreds and hundreds of dollars I've given this game , and stupidly spent a large amount at the Cartel. I'm taking the "I'm a sucker" title off my back . The King is naked.
