I can't take the pointless travelling between planets...

Great post! I agree that traveling is very painful.

All I think we need is a way to fast-travel directly to our ships.

I think I could take the run through the generic spaceport if I didn't have to do it twice each time I had to get to another planet or the fleet!

I am not putting words in your mouth. You simply missed the entire point of the reply.

It's just to point out your purpose here. I mean, you've claimed to have not paid a "cent" past buying the box yet here you are still posting.

Haters gonna hate and all that jazz.

+5 to the OP.

The starports should be nuked into the ground. It's fine to have big one on the capital worlds, and perhaps even well-settled planets like Tatooine... but when I visit the Republic reclaimation project on Taris, why the hell is the only significant building in the entire base a giant, stupid starport?

since when can we shoot lightning out of our fingers?

we play games for fun, not boring *** time sinks.

I'd like to add, it's the load screens that cripple this system. The number of steps wouldn't be so painful if they weren't all broken up by a 30 second load timer.

for the OP....
God and Jesus had nothing to do with the game... can you please leave their names out of it?
Thanks.

I understand the need to make you feel like you traveling from planet to planet, portals and the like just make the game feel small.

Why couldn't they have a cool space travel cut scene between planets, they could make 2 or 3, keep the landing stations the same if you want, just add snow for hoth etc...far better than all these loading screens.

Outside the planet load screen, which ones take 30 seconds?

I like this suggestion. Like, if you wanted to make the cutscene take 3 minutes or whatever, I'd be fine with that. At least then I could walk away from my PC while the game chewed on my video card pointlessly.

I remember reading the beta forums and all the anti-progress hardcore MMO nerds were testing the game.

Someone would bring ideas like a LFG tool/duel spec/faster travel times etc...and the majority of people said something like:

"No Bioware, we need to have pointless time sinks in this game! We don't want this to be like WOW!"

So Bioware listent to them and now the game lacks a ton of features that would decrease pointless travel time considerably. Bioware listened to the wrong people.

Either that or they needed to substantiate their 200 hour per toon leveling experience.
