Your major SwToR buzz kills - and can they be fixed?

I can think of only one thing that made me want to uninstall the game:

Datacron hunting - http://www.swtor.com/community/showt...640056&page=73

1. Gearing: while levelling up I have to stop levelling every four or so levels in order to completely remod my entire character and their companion, else I start dying too often and can't complete tougher missions. And it only gets worse once you get to 50+ where the sheer grind of gearing up for OPs becomes overwhelmingly insane.

2. Bugs: this game still has bugs in it from day one. FFS, fix that ****.

3. Voices: the voices are so specific to each class that I find myself unable to make certain characters. The male voice of the sith inquisitor for instance, simply doesn't suit a macho type. I want to make a tank, not a wizard. Same for the female trooper, only in reverse. The voice is very butch and really doesn't suit a more petite type. I want to make a medic, not a lesbian (I'm kidding, sheesh, lighten up).

4. Decision wheel: OF DOOM! I'm so tired of having to ESC out of dialogues because the choice I made is entirely misrepresentative of what the character actually says. It's so bad that I've noted several times where the result of a choice is almost the polar opposite of what is chosen.

The biggest thing for me is the weapon restrictions, particularly with the blaster wielders. Things I want that should be standard but I cannot have:

-Standard ranged Trooper with a blaster rifle. You just lose too much by trying to not use an assault cannon with a Commando. Vanguard just doesn't seem to feel like a trooper to me. I almost feel like it was just adapted as best it could be to accommodate for the PT.

-Blaster rifle with either BH. In the original trilogy every single BH you saw at meeting with Vader had a rifle/carbine. It was an iconic look and many of the BH's you see in this game that are NPC's have rifles as well. This is something that should have ALWAYS been able to be done. I don't know a lot about programming/coding but how hard could it be to give a rifle to a PT that has 2 blaster attacks? One being the standard rapid shots and the other Unload (full auto animation would work just fine)

-Single pistol wielding ranged Smuggler. I love the idea of the Gunslinger but I would much rather just use a single pistol. Again Scoundrel doesn't exactly fit the ranged standard Smuggler that we see in Han Solo.

Three standard iconic Star Wars weapon/profession type combos that are not available in the game. Many threads supporting more weapons types have been created over the course of this game and we never get an official response on them.

I know it's "technically challenging" for some classes, but not everybody has to get a new weapon type at once. It would be fine by me if they released them over time for different AC's (even if it's just one mirror class at a time) starting with some of the easier ones but I do think something like this needs to happen.

1. agree the loading screens are a pain not to mention when you see the game has loaded but then it goes to the laoding screen.

2. ship flying off. why is it every time i get into my ship i take off and leave planet?? what if i just need to get something off my ship and run back in?? noooo i gotta leave planet then when i leave my ship i have to fly back down to the space port B^(

3. boring races... i don't wana be human... nor do i wana look sorta human. B^( this bugs me the most!!! humans are boring cockroaches B^(

4. NPCs repeating them selves.. that crap bugs the hell out o me!! yes you told me i need to go here and kill these things and grab that thing, yes you told me 3 times now i don't need you to tell me again!!! please just shut up and let me goooooooo!!! B^P

those are my top 4 buzz kills for me in this game and all could be fixed but will never be fixed

^^^^^^^^ THIS ^^^^^^^^

i am sooooo glad im not the only one that thinks this!!! i cant believe i forgot to add this to my list!

that ticks me off to no end as well. MANY MANY MANY times has it said the complete opposite of what i picked, or what i thought it would say from what i picked. that crap is so annoying!!!! also there are times where you choose an option that is kinda wordy (as in long) and then your toon just says "yea ok" or some other one or two word statement and im like "W T F mate!!!"

To echo the OP: My major buzzkill is the long loading times. I have a pretty decent computer and they are still horrendous. This is the part when I take a bio break or grab a drink, do laundry, run to the store, etc

Some buzzkills which are not unique to SWTOR but worth mentioning anyway:

Fleet chat.

Terrible players I encounter in pugs.

Gold spammers.

I had a good chuckle when I saw this.. know it too well, especially if you're on a slower/older computer like mine, and trying to play on max settings, where everything is just that bit more slower as you're working you machine overtime, .. and you just keep missing those jumps. ofc it helps sometimes to just turn down the settings, speed up a bit, but some of them..haha.

but don't you get the sense of satisfaction when you eventually get them?

yeah..that is kinda annoying, it doesn't happen that often... but then i chalk it down to a language thing, i often realize most of them could be interpreted that way, but makes me wonder if the writers did not realize that it could be read the exact opposite way too.

Soon™

I'll go with this one. while it doesn't make me uninstall the game, it certainly discourages me from pvping as much as I'd prefer. I mean... they are not as bad if I'm queueing with a guildie, but I don't always feel like pvping at exact same time as my guildies and then there's a matter of still leveling characters and just... blerch.

although... now that I think of it, that endurance datacron on Makeb did piss me off mightily. and when I finally got it, I didn't feel satisfaction, I felt like the the giant boulder fell off my shoulders and I told myself... never again. never, EVER again. hell, if I weren't with friends at the time? I wouldn't have even finished, they convinced me in voice to keep trying. I did come pretty damn close rage quitting the game though. my god, that thing is awful.
