I just finished this after dying many many times and reading the work arounds i still can't do it as a lvl 29 sniper, i had a friend from guild help me. As someone who defends bioware this really is inexcusable this is a MAJOR bug. I sent in a ticket and the response is we know wait for next patch. this is a class quest that cannot be skipped or bypassed and is near impossible for a large percent of players. It has been know for what 5 months. I understand things take time and some bugs are easy some are impossible to fix but 5 months for a major class breaking bug really is unacceptable, bioware I thought you were better than that.

I have been thinking about this for a while and you put this better than I ever could have hoped, amazing review agree 100% I would love to see a boarding type pve/pvp scenario similar to star wars battlefront 2. Nothing huge nothing to take away from the main game but a small side game that envelops the star wars spirit of space combat and gives a bit of something new, fresh, and exciting.

Most impressive

I would have gladly done that, but at the time we were specifically told there would be a grace period to cover us, while waiting for the game to arrive. If in July BW would have said there was no grace period you need the actual box to play on opening day I would have happily drove down to game stop. ps many of you with "boxes" waiting at these brick and mortar establishments may find out they over-extended themselves or there may be an error in shipping / receiving, be careful with your smugness...

Dear Bioware/ EA (I know this is long but I promise it is worth it, also sign if you agree) I have been following this game and a regular viewer on this forum for at least 2 years and have waited with baited breath for its release. In July you came out with pre-order information telling us that the sooner we pre-ordered a game, none of us have played, and with no specific release date the sooner we would get a undisclosed amount of early access. Many of YOUR most loyal future customers in good faith of your company choose to get the Collectors Edition (of a game we honestly knew little about) which contained several extra features with a premium price of $150 (US dollars). Many local stores had no clue what was really going on so many of us went to Amazon who seemed to be giving out early access keys faster (remember you created a frenzy as to getting them earlier gave us earlier access to the game and many selling out). We knew Amazon would have to ship but we were implicitly told there would be a grace period from the time to ship to the time we got our game where we could still play. We trusted you, we put faith in you, you told us Bioware was a good company and we believed you, we believed you would have our backs as loyal customers who took the first plunge and believed in a unknown game. We were finally given a release date of December 20th many of us made plans to have time off to play this game with friends. I myself took vacation days to play this and plan on playing the early levels with friends. Now we are told because we believed in you and trusted your word, you are turning your back on us. We can't play till we get the physical game in our possession which during holiday season can easily be a week, with the millions of things Amazon is selling that week along with the huge amount of mail being delivered. I agree several days isn't a lot and in the scheme of life and this game it is nothing. But now my self and many others like me will not be able to play on the first few days of actual release. Tho we get several days in pre-release (which we are thankful for) we will still be missing a large part of opening of a game many of us plan on playing for years (honestly if I didn't believe in this game I wouldn't have gotten a CE) None of us are asking for any special treatment, nor do we want free days and will happily pay the monthly fees from the 20th till when we get our hard copy. We aren't looking to play 5 days early access then get a few days and cancel our subs / games which is a silly idea since many have already put down the money and have full intentions of being with you for a long time. We just want to play our game that we bought from a company that we thought would have our backs when things got bad, cause honestly many of us have had your backs. Few are going to rage and cancel their orders at this point that is silly. It is common knowledge that opening day and launch for ANY product is crucial to long term success, whether it be movies, music, restaurants etc. No one knows this better than a MMO community, and you yourselves have repeatedly said how important launch is to the success of this game. This puts a major mark on launch for me and is not something I will forget, nor will many other members. Remember we are the ones who paid the most, first. We are the ones who will line up willingly and are financially able to for expansions (after this I will not get a special edition), books, and micro transactions. And we are the ones who have to decided month after month if we want to continue that $15 automatic debit from our accounts. Whatever reasons you chose to do this to us is for money we aren't stupid, but by being able to collect in the 10's of thousands you are going to be paying 100's of thousand to millions in poor public relations, hurt feelings, and sooner canceled subscriptions to some of your best customers. I am ashamed I have to write something like this I thought Bioware was a better company than that. Please don't turn your backs on us. Thank you very much Steven
