Gut that write for Massively agree with you guys

Another paper cut, @SWTOR. The chair is a 15 second channel... So RPers still can't use it to sit and RP. #SWTOR

Did it ever occur to you that maybe the chair is a test item for actual chair sitting so Bioware can check on clipping issues?

It didn't, did it?

It's easier to fix one item rather than fix an entire world. So how about you test out the chair and report any problems you encounter, rather than complain that it's just a healing item?

I agree that there should be chairs that RP'ers can sit on, but this thread is kind of funny.

First I ever heard any talk of the portable chair.

Did someone really expected it to be a real chair? I think it was fairly obvious that it is a regen item, it is named Portable Relaxation Unit, for Yoda's sake

Yep another slap to the face. Lol how anyone could defend this is beyond me. Chairs are a feature people have been begging for since beta and this is what we get? These developers just don't get it. . .

No one said...but really, what else would you use it for. Seems kind of stupid really. For roleplaying it made sense, but to only last a few seconds is dumb.

Then again, that's how its getting to be with this game. They show something, you get your hopes up, and then find out its a total let down.

Then finally when I saw the portable chair, I thought prehaps for once we were being listened to, but AGAIN I was wrong. I made the mistake of buying a few of the new packs to get the chair, and to my pleasure I did in the third pack, only to be extreamly let down when it turned out to be a 10 second animation/regeneration item like the Carbonite/Bacta tank item. So folks, if you were like me and thought we were getting what we asked for, then don't bother, these are not the droids that your looking for..
Umm, yeah, pretty much everyone knew this to be true even before it was released... it was highly unlikely that it would be anything but a health recovery device...

So hardly a SCAM! as you put it, but more like you building up an illusion in your head about what it would be before it was even released...

Disappointing? Yes but surely not a Scam.

Yet another BioFail. Won't be buying any packs this time around.

For RP players, this game is just one let down after another. Chat Bubbles, Hood Toggle, Armor Dye system, nickel and dime recustomization...

Throw us a bone here guys!

And stop trying to defend these stupid regen toys! Carbonite Chamber, Kolto Tank, and now this Chair, all should last until canceled, not a pathetic ten seconds.

All the best things they could have ever done for RP in SWTOR, pissed away on some idiot's stupid idea.
