If they did that it would be like getting an achievement in WoW!

this is a cool feature, but is blatantly poached from other MMOs.

it would be great to see bioware either start coming up with something a little bit revolutionary, or just plain fixing the game we have now.

are the rewards worth the long grind efforts? or is it just another time sink to waste weeks of gameplay or longer just to get a stupid mod'able hat and a title that nobody cares about?

It is unbelieveably poor marketing to release a blog like this introducing a new grind without even trying to incentivise the community. Sort it out.
^ I'm with this guy....unless their are un-lockable mounts or gear -- no deal (even then I may not be interested given that I already have a pretty sweet mount & gear). Beyond that...just give us the new world event & FoTHC already.

Lol, this actually DOES make me want a faction that wants me to do some long list of bizarre things. Or a faction that's quest line is basically some other slowly built up joke, like in Deathspank.

@ Bioware:

Wouldn't the time spent on this have been better utilized creating real content or fixing bugs? I don't mind that this system is being added, but it just doesn't seem to improve the game in any way.

Deathspank you say?

Yay more currencies... terrible trend in mmog's of late... swtor already had a problem with it. Time to at least consolidate planet comms.

I agree, unless you have the option to use it as either a normal title or a legacy name/title.

Limit the reputation gained by week is the best idea ever.

Because i don't want to compete with anyone. Please BioWare, put a time limit to spend in Operations. For the same reason. And also, put a cap in the number of times you can send your companions to do crew skills. Because if a person spends 6 hours playing he can make more money than me.

NO CAP. I'm a suscriber. NO CAP. Freedom for the people.
