am i the only one who thinks the double xp weekend was a bad idea?

me too its like "run before you can walk" and there are seval points that make the player bad

+) the only good thing if you had done 3 classes be for the one that your doing now per makeb then leveling them up is a good time (for 50 to 52 any less than 52 on makeb is not a good idea for i did make at 50 when it came out Died a lot)to do so.
-)you do not need double xp to get to level 55 as I have done with out double xp if you do all the flashpoints with the social points and h2 + 4 at the end of chapter 3 with very little warzone done(valor 30)
-)the cost of leveling up so quicky a lot more to the planet that you are doing
-)crafting items will not be use full and to send you company out will cost more for higther levels
-)solo gamming become more easy and less interaction will occor taking a way from the start of SWTOR was ment to be a social playing in groups and leanig how each class works with other classes or the same as you that might play diffrenty as to you or the skill tree that who picks what as well as gear type
-)lack of warzone experince or group (H2+4)with leveling to fast has made level 55 warzones more on verygood or an absolute shambles with many pulling out at a wim dew to NEWBIE not knowing how to play the game or going of tanking like on the story mode..................

would like to see a weekend....crafting , gathering i.e. a plenat that has Grade 4,5 is now 5,6 for that weekend..so crafter can do stuff as well as double the amount that you pick up

I think they should add a legacy perk unlock for double xp. This way, those that like it can perma unlock it and those that don't can leave it off. Of course, if they did this then they would lose sales on xp potions so that probably will never happen. Maybe the reqs could be have to have level 50 legacy and have to be a subscriber.

Yeah, I've never gotten the mentality behind wanting them. Get to level cap faster so they can complain about there being no content, I guess. Anyway, I just play other games when these weekends happen.

I would have played another game this weekend BUT I was out of town all week due to a family emergency and logged on this weekend to get my "fix". I had left a level 5 on Hutta that I started as a companion for my daughter's Sorc and I wanted to get that toon to the same level as hers before she can play again. The toon was 13 before i left Hutta. Levels are coming so fast that I can't keep up with skills even at low levels.

Too bad the credit given per quest was not doubled like the XP was. THAT would be awesome!

I've highlighted the point i'd agree on here. if you have legacy 50 it is assumed you are a subscriber, and that you have a bazillion alts. Both of which are viable reasons for making this double xp a legacy unlock. I have a bazillion alts. I've done the stupid planet quests a bazillion times. I don't want to do them again and amazingly! i can now skip them because double xp. Make this a legacy 50 unlock available to subscribers. Maybe then we'd finally have a reason to be legacy 50.

People that complain about having no content at max level either
A: are stupid
or
B: Have already done the ops for the week on the one character they use and are locked for the week and need a second max level or multiple ones (which can be achieved at breakneck double xp speed!)
or
C: are just dumb

shouldnt be in game unless there is an xp off option

This is the only game I've ever played where people bish about increased xp rates. Honestly. *shakes head* I think some people would bish that the sky is blue, or water is wet.

I love the xp weekends, and like many others, would love to see them as being a regularly occurring fixture in the game.

Can anyone translate this?

Some people's children..

They give us a gift and you complain about it...

I for one am quite happy with double exp. Got my Jugg from 36 to 55 and sorc from 50 to 55.

I mean what does it matter that you're out leveling the planets? If you're playing for the storyline.. then keep doing the quests... Nothing is stopping you.. Just because you out level it doesn't mean you can't do the quest..

Shessh.
