Sick and Tired ..............

I agree and understand your frustration. Bioware should really go forward and just have solo options for all flashpoints and operations so that those who don't want to watch the story stuff and get straight to the loot runs can get what they want and those who want to roleplay and enjoy the story can do that too.

Having both time constrained loot runners (and I can appreciate the sentiment, I sometimes just want to get that boss downed or that weekly quest finished fast and get my damn reward) and people who want to enjoy the story all funneled into the current Player Party required groups will create problems as the OP's concern shows.

No, you don't. My achievement list shows I've run KDY. What it doesn't show you is that I've run it once, and that one time, my first time through it, someone insisted I spacebar through all the dialogue, so despite what you might think from my achievement list, (and that of others), just because it says we've completed the flashpoint, doesn't mean we got to see all the story, (or any of it, for that matter). Yes, I had a choice, I could have refused to spacebar, but I was trying to be nice and maintain harmony in the group, so I'm not complaining about it, simply pointing out the assumption you are making is not always going to be correct, and yes, I did read your entire post.

I'm one of those spacebar loot runners. Usually by the time a FP pops, I've already been in queue for half an hour or more, and that's after I've already spent an hour crafting across 15 characters before I even get to "play the game" (makes more money than dailies), so I just want to race through it so I can go to bed, so that I can get up early the next morning for work and such.

So I'm one of those ZOMG SPACEBAR NAO peeps.

However, if it becomes clear that the group won't spacebar, I just tab out of the game and read the forums or some such (running the game in fullscreen windowed mode helps a lot with this as the computer doesn't have to re-render everything when I tab back in). Typically this means that the rest of the group must wait for my convo choice to expire when it finally does come up. I only tab back into the game when more spacebarring is required (if there's more convo after the convo choice) or when I hear the others in the group running off to the next objective.

TL;DR: If they want to waste my time by not spacebarring, I'll waste theirs by doing other **** when I'm supposed to be selecting a convo option.

No need to make QQ threads about it.

We did read the actual post. Thus the replies. As noted, if you want to space bar, agree up front, and don't hold your breath for a "skip the story" option in GF.

There is a phrase for this kind of thinking: cutting off your nose to spite your face.

If your time truly is that valuable (which I doubt, in any event), you should not be wasting it playing a computer game.

If someone posts "spacebar plz" I don't space bar (or I may just drop group, as I have better things to do than play with an impatient toddler). If they ask "Can we space bar?" or similar, then I space bar.

your not looking yourself either. you seem more intent on your rather ignorant point being put across then you are at accepting that everyone else is stating the same thing to you that this game is a storyline based game, there isnt a mission around that doesnt have a purpose to the storyline in some form or another.

besides that, you lack respect for others players, no one is going to give you any in return.

You want an MMO without story?
Oh man, you sure picked the wrong game.

He's also coming down quite a bit in how many times ppl have seen the story he seems to hate so much. Started at 900 the one you quoted says 800......

To be honest, what baffles me is that you are not tired of the FP per se if you have done it 800 times already. I can't imagine how bored I would be if I would have done, let's say, Athiss for 800 times. Whether with or without stories. I personally think that after such an intense amount of playing Swtor, it is no wonder if people get negative feelings. Play another game for a little while, then come back, would therefore be my suggestion.

A non-story queue for FPs in a story-driven MMO will not happen. Rightfully so imho.

i dont see the difference between storyline or none storyline fp anyway, i mean all your doing is adding a few minutes, but sleeping 6-8 hours a day is also wasting time so i dont see what the fuss is there either. thats all the difference is, if you play it to death long enough you will just look at it one day and just wont return to it, storyline or no.

You don't learn how to play your class if you don't repeat the same thing over and over and over and over and over again...
