*update* I was recently contacted by one of the Customer Service droids for a chat while I was in game. I'm not sure if this was a person or a chat droid, I'm leaning towards the first (although the person would be limited to pre-written company lines to make sure they were polite and didnt give anything away). Anywho, while my initial conversation was about how my companion is always unsummoned when my taxi lands, they asked "is there anything else?" and I mentioned this forum topic. The basic response was. "Oh, thats interesting, I cant make any promises but watch for future patch notes on the forums." So basically they just acknowledged the fact that I made the claim, not that the problem exists. But it appears they ARE listening to our bug complaints.

My friend gets them with treasure hunting... seems a little unfair that he only has to spend a fraction of what I do for affection points.

I had 10000 affection WAY before I proposed, and its pretty much stayed there the whole time. -Drekos

yeah, cantinas are still only desolate areas sparcely populated with npcs where players only go to log out or go afk.

Currently I am a level 50 Powertech with cybertech and maxed out UT and Scavenging. I've been able to craft for myself an earpiece and a full set of armor, but I can only make mods for...EVERY CLASS BUT MY OWN. I know that the lack of tanking mods (mods with +defense/shield/absorb stat) has been put in "known bug" lists, but I was wondering if this has been acknowledged by Bioware or if this is just something the community is assuming a bug that Bioware has knowingly (maliciously?) left in there. There have been dozens of patches with this being a "known" bug, and it seems a little rediculous that 1/4 of the 4 person party dynamic is screwed over in terms of player-crafting for cybertech. I couldnt find anything in dev-tracker so I'm assuming the answer is no, but I was wondering if anyone else knew differently. -Drekos

So a while ago I proposed to Mako. Then through a series of mail messages she went through status of being engaged to married...by hacking marriage registries. While hacking things is "in character" for Mako, it still felt like a cop out, or corner cutting measure, on Bioware's part. They should know from a story telling standpoint that major plotpoints should happen on screen, not off. There isnt even an "on screen" acknowledgement between the two characters that they were married, which you at least get that much of with Vette. I hope future expansions give a little more content to this relationship than those 3 measly messages I got.

What about for Imperials? Is that ALSO left of house organa?

thanks!

Hi, there are a few questions regarding gear that I've been having a hard time finding answers to on the forums. Is one intrinsically better than the other? Do all orange/custom items have the same base stats for their type? (light, medium, heavy armor etc.) or do some of them have better base stats than others? If I have an orange/custom item with all purple mods of the same color would it be better or worse than a purple item with purple mods of that level? Do all items have orange versions? Should I strive for having my ideal end-game look through the use of orange items? Thanks in advance.

You can change the settings that you find when you press the "esc" button and go to preferences. Try going through the list of things in the preferences menu until until you find the things you want to change. That's always a good start.

I'm not sure if not knowing the difference between the words "purple" and "yellow" qualifies as color-blind or dyslexic. Also OP: you should read up on the lore for Ilum, just a thought.

Pretty obvious that you havent even stepped foot on it yet. LOLOLOLOOLOLOL

WOW @ this question. Did you really expect them to make voice and dialogue trees for every droid that you "made" as a cybertech? Or even if you didnt think you built droids, that they would somehow give companions based on crafting professions instead of class?

no, devs have gone on record saying that there is no cross-faction trade. while this is annoying for things like credits and crafting materials, this mechanic has to be put in place to prevent sending faction-specific gear. also from a story perspective it doesnt make much sense for republic to be helping empire and vice-versa...

I made certain assumptions after you showed us that you didn't know the difference between "worse" and "worst". After reading your post, those assumptions have been verified.
