I don't mind Starports. It's the Orbital Stations. Also, I don't really understand the point of the mailbox. Why not have a hot key that opens your mail? Now this doesn't really HAVE to be changed in my opinion, my soul isn't crushed because of it and I can live without the changes easily, just wouldn't mind it if they were implemented

This. You shouldn't be able to instantly go anywhere in this game. Makes no sense.

You mean like TOR's death "penalty"? Or its super fast leveling to 50? How about when it put in carebear mode raiding and THREE difficulty levels?

It's amusing to watch people pretend this is hardcore. Try playing EQ sometime.

Erm, OP. we have a fleet pass with a cooldown. Use it ? and stop whining.
Nxt thing you know, you want a port to every quest area, since ( hey ! who cares about the running... we're able to fly in space and yet i have to RUN ?)

or an FP that just has that 1 BOSS we all care about. Skip all the running and mobs.

then you want to be able to create a max level character at the start. since thats what everyone is, why not just make it happen.

I , for one, enjoy that little sequence (stars zoomin pass my cockpit) whenever my starship goes into hyperspace. That little 1-2seconds was just so .... aaaah.

Kudos to you, Bioware.

yes, more loading screens (which are way too long to be acceptable) really makes the game real immersive.

Yep, the annoying orbital stations are what I hate. And the long hangar/spacedock walks (do they think you're going to have a party in there or something?) It should just go straight from spaceport to ship and vice-versa without the intermediates.

Im sick of games that cater to a bunch of whiny babies who have nothing better to do than nit pick about immersion details that will cost them all of 30 seconds to work through. A fast paced travelling system between widely seperated points does not make the game any better. If anything, it makes it so you never have to actually see a lot of content. you never have to journey anywhere. You can literally auto que your way through everything.

Thats not a game. Its a service at that point, and a terrible one.

For instance, I may not play it now, and I may return to it, But take the example of EVE. It is one of the best MMO's out there, and what makes it so good is that its designed for a certain kind of player and it does not compromise for the carebears. It has something like a half million dedicated players, and its that group and type of player they are going after. They have self respect for their product, and they will not change it willy nilly, and make it easier to satisfy the core group off spoiled brat mmo players who are all sitting in Warcraft trolling trade and whining about how the game should be even easier than it is now.

I wouldn't listen to you idiots either.

I think we just have a culture that demands instant gratification. We seem have become gluttonous in our cunsumption of content to the point that we just can't even wait to travel. "Feed my appitite for fun, non stop and I will never be satisfied but keep shoveling it to me." Like a big super size pile of fries, just shove it in and dont breath....just consume.....and complain.


I like it the way it is, thank you.

This has nothing to do with the game. Your computer sucks.
