Patch 1.2 sprint

I’m not all that worried about the "slap in the face"

it isn’t that, if that bothered me then I would be complain about the lower of the cost for speeder licenses.

It is that when playing a new character there are "big moments" that you look forward to.

There is one around 10th ( light saber for light saber users for example ), another at 14th, another at the end of the second planet ( ship ), and one at 25th

I wish they would not take away the one at 14th by handing it out at 1st

but the abilty to RUN should not be one of those...
if every living being can only do about three things, one of those is running.

Then call it something else if the word "sprint" bothers you, because you can already run ( and turn it off and walk ) at 1st level now.

no, no...
the only current options available before lvl 14 are a painfully slow walk and a leisurely JOG.

You still have something to look forward to. Now instead of sprint it's the temporary speed boost.

I also think Speeder skill should be available to purchase from your TRAINER at level 10 IMO (same prices)

New players wouldn't be able to afford it right off becuase of the 40k pricetag... but alts would.

Hate not having my speeder until 25. Once was enough.


Luke Skywalker had a speeder while he was a level 1 farmer.

Wow.... just WOW

This reminds me of Game Testing when they said "We are going to increase the amount of XP from levels 1 - 10" and people went nuts saying "You're making the game easy mode..." Geez.. it's levels 1 - 10 it's not the end of the world.

I have been playing on the PTS and since I can't copy my character across, you have to start at level 1. Even though the starter planets aren't as big as some of the other ones, it makes the running back and forth back and forth so much more easy. It doesn't seem as tedious as it did before. And anything to make the game less tedious IMO is a GOOD thing.

And the only reason people were looking forward to lvl 14 was BECUASE they were tired of all the slow running. There are plenty of other abilities one can look forward to as well as new skill tree's for advanced classes and NEW abilities

Making the game easier, is not makeing it better.

It is too easy now

Oh, this troll post again...
Seeing a few of these around trying to brew up a flamefest.

Don't feed him folks.

I list a valid complaint, and one that every single person I know personally that plays the game ( talking several dozen ) agree 100% with

I am not threatening to quit, I am not demanding a change.

Just expressing my disappointment with this change

You need to grow up, it is ok for me to express disappointment with a change.

I have complained about very little else with this game as I consider it by far the best MMO on the market today

Not everyone that disagrees with your position is a troll
