Except credits are good for very little right now - you get your gear by playing the game not spending credits.

100% with your percentages. Especially given the absolutely ridiculous distances the quest make you travel, mount or no mount.

Back and forth to the opposite ends of the map only to go to the same place you just were is lazy development. Period.

Fast mounts to compensate pl0z.

Next complaint will be about the 1M VIP room entry item being too expensive...
Yea... because the VIP room and mounts are in the same ballpark, oh wait they're not even remotely close.

He's not talking mounts in general, he's talking an extra 10% speed. That is a luxury.

i am in CORELLIA ATM. have done everything with my lvl25 mount.
i am not gonna pay 210K cr. for a lousy 10% increase. even if i was swimming in crredits. it's ridiculous.

i always wished i would zoom on my speeder like luke did on endor forest... turns out i was more like bart simpson on his skate and even he seems faster than this crap.

i told myself, well, it's normal, first mounts are slow... WRONG, turns out next one is 10% more and last one 10% more. yeaaaaah right. not gonna spend credits on that.
not becaus ethe price, but because the speed sucks.

as said, i am in CORELLIA and having taxi services all over the place on every planet, and taking into account you actually have to STOP to kill stuff, the first speeder is more than enough.

once i hit lvl 50 i will probably sitting my *** off on empire fleet anyways, so why would i need a faster speeder?

that being said, give me a 200% or 300% speeder and i'll gladly pay 10M. if needed. even if i make my graphic card and the game server crash xD

Is it really about how much it cost or the speed percent upgrade. I always thought it was about the higher you went in level, the better the speeder you could obtain looked.

I bought it and wish I didn't, the difference isn't noticable. Don't bother until you get one of the 160% mounts later at end-game.

They need to double the speed of all speeders tbh, they feel extremely slow and not what they are actually like in starwars.

I don't know that I'm going to spend my credits on that. Anyone else on this bandwagon?
No, because I had 1 million credits when I hit lvl 50.

Also, the 110% speed mounts break from damage slower, so you can get shot at a little on your mount before falling off.
