If you are gonna talk about how you reached level 50 and now you are bored then take a step back and think. Bioware made a story based MMO so when the story halts at level 50 then of course there won't be much to do. That is why they made EIGHT different classes with EIGHT UNIQUE AND DIFFERENT STORYLINES.

If you play this game and story isn't a major factor for you then this MMO isn't intended for you. But for the rest of us story matters and there are 8 different ones to experience and they are not short either. So unless you have played through all 8 stories then a lack of content really isn't a valid complaint. I am currently playing through the Sith Inquisitor storyline and when I reach level 50 I will be more than happy to play through as a Jedi on different planets with a different story.

and as far as saying they aint short.come back to me when you find something that isnt short for the non casual in this game cuz ive yet to find it
Sad You are missing out on great content by being stubborn and sticking with one character. I am on my first one still but I plan on playing all of the characters till the expansion pack rolls around and they up the level cap and expand all the stories. But you can sit around with your level 50 waiting. It is your time you are wasting and noone elses.

Go run your nightmare mode FPS/OPs for high end gear. Your end-game content is right there.

I couldn't agree more with this thread. Just because you're some high school student or just an adult with no life so you can spend 5 hours daily does NOT mean you can troll in this forum on how the game lacks content. Especially since it's not even 6 months old for the love of god...
You need to learn how to put boundaries over yourselves and play at reasonable amounts of time!
I like to compare it with electricity - you need to keep the power up for just the right amount so that the resistor won't burn. If you're playing for 5 hours per day and became bored with it - well buddy that means you BURNED YOUR RESISTOR (your 'fun').

Lack of content is a valid complaint. People have opinions that differ from yours. There is a severe lack of content before 1.2 and it didn't fix many issues by not having Ranked WZs available. People don't complain because overall there is a lack of content. It's in the area that matters to them, there is a lack of content.

Not everyone enjoys rolling alts. I personally have completed Bounty Hunter, Imperial Agent, and Jedi Consular storylines. And from those storylines (Imperial Agent was excellent as a side note), I don't really care for another lackluster story. Some people enjoy that. I don't.

While it's not as bad as some people make it out to be, end game simply lacks time sinks, there's nothing to really do if you don't wanna PvP and it's not time to raid. I find myself running circles around the fleet half the time while my companions are on missions and crafting.

Since when did "END," or "GAME OVER" mean, "Oh, I can do more stuff now!"?

End means... it's over. You're there... you're done. Go buy a different game (ie, a new toon, new experiences, etc.)

Here's an idea - for End Game content, they delete your character, since you're "too high leveled" for the general world story line, and you are forced to start over! THEN, your toon is a legendary part of history to be remembered - not played (they are at the END remember?)

This is a Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game. Not something single player like Mass Effect.

TOR entered a niche market that involves competitors that provide endgame content. Right now, 1.2 added plenty to do. But give it a month. Actually should be enough time for rated. They're still in good shape.

As I said before. Lack of content isn't a valid opionion till you have played through all 8 campaigns.

First, SWToR has billed itself as different from those other games, from day one. Second, do you really, honestly, expect new content to arrive as fast as you can finish it?

I mean, at what point do you recognize the meaning of the word "end"? When your toon is a recognized God, has replaced the Emperor, and can use dev commands in-game? At some point, it has to stop, and you have to be reasonable with your expectations.

Real life doesn't have end game content either (depending on your religion, but nobody doing end game content talks about it much, eh?)
