So we are supposed to run HM TfB and NMM Denova at level 55 too? That's a surefire way for them to lose their entire raiding population.
Unsubscribed due to no new Operations.
I am happy that there will be a renewed focus on story, I love story, its why I picked this MMO. But I picked an MMO, not an episodic single player RPG that I have to pay a subscription to receive the episodes.

I expect so, yes. If there were going to be a new operation, I assume they would have mentioned it when they did their mini overview of it. The fact that they DIDN'T mention it, leads me to the conclusion that there will NOT be any.
All warfare is based on deception If his forces are united, separate them If you are far from the enemy, make him believe you are near A leader leads by example not by force

If that is the case then it definitely is a scam. Why do I even need 5 days of early access if there won't even be a new Op to get ready for...

That's simply to thin people out, not for any Operation prep.

Bioware's plan for avoiding issues: Do something the next day that makes people even more mad so that they forget what they were originally mad about.

Ya wanna lay that info out for us?

First, no one said new "big" planet. They just said new planet as of late. They also said five new levels. Ok, so how do you go about getting those five levels? What do you do after that? Is there new end game? Is there new pvp for those levels? ....and where did they say "tons of new goodies", or are you doing exactly what marketeers hope for, extrapolating on your own so as to justify your trust and forking out more money?

Look, you are entitled to your blind faith if you so desire. No one is arguing that, but we have people that spent 10 dollars on space mission upgrades that were promised daily and weekly missions that cannot do them because the entire system is broken. We have people that sought out cartel packs for particular amor that has been suddenly changed.....after they paid their money....are are being baited again for more money. We have advertized colors not matching the actual items, etc. etc. etc.

.....and you are writing with full pomposity, arguing that we are what, cheap, for not sending them yet another 10 dollars on good faith, based on limited information?

First, give it a rest, its not working except to paint you as less then astute on this issue. Second, if its only 10 dollars, then send me ten. Right? No big deal. I'll give you my PO box, you send me 10 dollars.....because its "nothing". ;p

I'll add some 50 grams more stuff on your perfectly round Pizza for 15c, what a bargain, isn't it?

If it turns out that's 50 grams of ham and you're vegan or muslim, I don't think you'll be that happy.
The only thing measured in grams over on this side of the pond is white powder. Vegans wouldn't have a problem with it. Muslims might.

It isn't like you aren't going to buy it, so suck it up and pay for it now. If you are still playing the game you will pay the 10 bucks for the expansion if you are a sub regardless of how little it adds to the game just because it raises the level cap and adds a new area.

If that is all that this expansion offers you'll still pay for it because anyone still subscribed to the game won't want to be left behind to rot at level 50 while everyone else is 5 levels higher and running around on Makeb.

If you are thinking about un-subbing then by all means don't pre-order. The only thing you get with pre-order is 5 days early access and if you are already thinking about unsubscribing then those 5 days won't matter one way or the other.

Regardless, stop whining about something that isn't going to change. You'll get information when it's available and not a moment sooner and you really only have about 7 hours to make a decision on it anyway.
This is a mind projection fallacy. I will not be paying for it, "anyway". If my sub is still current, and I see that the expansion is another space mission blunder, not only will I not pay for the expansion, I will no longer be a subscriber.

Now, you are attempting to paint us as stupid, but who is the bigger fool, the one that blindly hands over their money not knowing the product and has therefor paid whether it flies or not, or the person that holds both his expansion money and subscription money firmly in hand until they prove it to us?
