Are androids and Iphones declared as "required" for playing this game?

The security key is either free (mobile phone app) or sold at cost (keyfob). They don't make a profit on it. Pull yourself together, man. Just use the fleet shuttle.

Except your entire argument is that the fleet passes off the security vendor are the 'required' part of the game, not that the key is the required part of the game.

His suggestion is perfectly valid, and completely nullifies your complaint.

You know where society stands when convenience and luxury items are considered mandatory...

The person you quoted is not the OP.
And i kinda agree with the OP. In a game where it is hard enough to get groups to begin with, forcing people to buy their security key thing for fast travel to the lfg chat is a bit backwards.

Except you're wrong as well.

Noone is forced to buy anything. That's the whole point. Even IF the security key is 'required', you can get it free with the android simulator.

So again, this argument is completely specious.

They aren't forcing anyone to buy anything. Everyone can use the Emergency Fleet Pass once every 18 hours. There are also shuttles from planets to the Fleet that don't cost anything and have no cooldown.

You do not have to buy anything. If you have a smartphone, use it. Otherwise use the program linked above.

No cost. Completely free. Less QQ.

Exactly.

This particular answer was definitely not very ... diplomatic and the reaction to be insulted by this because you don't want the security key understandable.

The bright news:

This will definitely be a quicker way to get to your ship and would have been a better answer to the question.

Let me think. I have bought this game via russian-language interface 4.01.12 for RUR on origin store, I've got a ru-page for buying this game (and timecards) for RUR on swtor.com, and I've seen game boxes in local stores. So you tell me, is that part of EU-release or what?

They sell this game to me, but I don't have same support and content as US player does? Looks like I'm not asking for anything extra, am I? And I don't think rest of EU world uses just I-things and androids also.

And I, probably, wouldn't even care, if official person, person in charge, did not point me out, that there's no need to worry - all I gotta do is buy a pass, relax and enjoy.

Don't think I need to repeat what was already stated in my previous posts. Problem here is not that pass itself is not avalible to everyone, but that damn tool that is needed to get the pass (which is showed as a "solution", not by me, not by random player) IS NOT AVALIBLE. Unless user goes for emulators etc. It's pretty same as if they did it, let's say, for linux-users only, and told you - enjoy, you can always use emulators. It's NOT right.
