I agree, I'm really not seeing what the appeal of this planet AT ALL is, except that it puts 5 levels behind a paywall that you will HAVE to buy if you want to stay competitive. That's it.

Exactly, I can't speak for everyone but I don't want just another questing planet. Level up 5 more levels on a planet I'll never visit again, great. Afterwards I'll be sitting back on the fleet queuing for the same wzs and running the same hm and ops. They should have held out longer and produced a real expansion and not a new quest zone....blah.

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.
If Pizza Hut started selling random large pizza's for 3 bucks they'd sell like mad. You can always take off the crappy toppings.

This expansion is the same. It's a big enough value that only 20% of it needs to actually be decent.

We have three days left to meet the deadline and the only things we know about what we are purchasing is that it has 5 more levels and a new planet. I believe there will be more to it than that, hopefully new Ops, FPs, and WZs, but for all we know there won't be.

How can you expect us to fork out money on such an unknown quantity?
who cares,
u 1st day know EA?

Yeah right that is how the game turned into one big mess like this ....

Do we need another expansion , when all the old bugs are still not fixed ?
Well if 20% of the new expansion works , means 80% of the expansion causes you to crash to desktop ...
You think that is good enough , wow I want to hire you for 20% of the salary , expecting you to do 180% of work .

Since you are so easy going .

If you are complaining about 10 dollars I'm not sure you're ready to be a PC gamer. You might want to stick to XBOX or PS3 where the kids are.

If spending 10 dollars on something is as painstaking as some of you make it seem I can guess then that your computer must be cheap like you are. I bet you blame the lag on bioware with that awesome Dell of yours.

10 bucks is nothing for an entire expansion. Don't want to pay it? Too late, enjoy paying 20 when the rest of us are enjoying the content.

Like you said 10 bucks is nothing , nada zip , I smoke more then 10 bucks a day ... That is called a luxury .
And if you want to play a elitist game where money talks ******** walks ....
2nd life that way , spend 10k please or even beter a couple 100k ..

then come back complaining about others being cheap .
Majority of the gamers 10 bucks is nothing , infact 50 bucks is nothing a month ..
So you pay 10 , I can wait for the content to be released and judge if it is a glorious pile of dung , or the next messiah .. And pay 20 .

What the crack are you on? I only said 20% of it had to be good. That doesn't mean the other 80% can be a crash fest. It means it can be mediocre and still have value.

Mediocre is good nowadays ... I don't think you understand the word good anymore ..
let alone the word mediocre .

boildown of swtor after 1 year of swtor

Story and Idea , excellent .
Game engine mediocre
Execution and support poor
Community mediocre with grandeur of selfimportance .
Gameplay good
Class balance mediocre
Stability poor

So what part of the expansion you consider good ?
The gameplay is good , so everything else is poor or mediocre already .
So for you nothing changes , for me I rather have a wait and see attitude .
