Yes there is. They switched them to bind to your character so that they can charge us Cartel Coins in the Collections Tab to unlock them Account Wide. I'm pretty certain that's exactly why they switched them to character bind.

i do not see why they wouldn't... it sucks but it is 100% cosmetic it has no effect on gameplay. It is the ideal thing for the cartel market. I know for one i will buy the new hair styles...

I HIGHLY doubt i will buy cathar as the only 2 races i have any interest in playing are Human and Togruta. However i give them a monthly sub and buy cartel going when they add something decent to the market...

I think they are only costing themselvs money with some of the ugly CM sets... why is there no Mando inspired set yet...

I know we all knew it was coming but what a disapointing update, all it is is a load of stuff to spend real cash on. No real game improvements or additions.

Oh I'll buy the new styles too, I really like that long hair style the character in the video had. And I'm not gonna get overly upset about it because it won't change anything, and it is, like you said, completely cosmetic. I'm not even surprised they designed it that way. Basically, like I said, I'm just surprised that the people that have been most vocal in opposition to this not being free for subs aren't on here screaming about this now....or maybe they just haven't read or realized it yet lol.

holy shyte... are people really this damn dense... they have NEVER said this patch is more then a CM custimization patch. It is EXACTLY what they say it is... to claim to be disapointed with exactly what they said they were going to deliver just shows you as a cry baby who is never happy with anything.


just because your mom gives you everything without you ever having to earn anything does not mean that is how everything int eh world works.

I think you are right about this.

Oh I understand THAT part of it.

I meant logically, in a way that will at least make customers semi-supportive of it, it makes no sense.
On the Internet, you can be anything you want. It is strange so many people choose to be stupid.

its like a couple of things that have been requested for a while now combined with a buttload of cartel market crap...I wish BW would just use a patch to actually fix in game stuff instead of adding in more crap to the cartel market...swear they are overstuffing us with the CM and going to end up burning out their customer base with new cartel market crap every 6 weeks while long time bugs go overlooked or say something like the codex which is still broke to hell...even their new achievement system is broken as all hell and the only fix they offer us in this patch is that they finally fixed the counters for the pvp kill achievements...Im disappointed yet again.

They gave up on ranting on this boards and are raging on several other social media. No use to complain here. It's not like EA/Bioware cares.

Hallelujah to that lol, everyday it was a new thread about the same complaint, this should be free, that should be free, let them go whine on Facebook and save the forums for bigger concerns I'm still excited for 2.1, all in all I think it's great progress.
