People expect too much of MMOs.

Just treat it the same way as any other game. Like COD.

Play the single player, beat it, play the multiplayer a few times until it gets (very) repetetive and boring, then play it some more just so you can get some new stuff.

This is where MMOs start do deviate, in that they somehow make you keep playing, for whatever reason, either to be the VERY BEST person on the server in terms of gear, or...something else. I don't know, that's why people seem to play these games.

Me, I prefer to just run another character to see a new story. It's still the same combat, but at that point running a new character becomes the equivelant of playing an expansion pack, which isn't all that bad.

So, why do people play MMOs after they've been through the most of the game? To get the best gear, of course. I don't understand it, but I bet a lot of people here do.

Here's the thing, if you have a guild, and came here with a raid group to play with, you're fine. If not it's the same damn dailies everyday, and nada.....no way to find a group, period.

uhhh EV was so 2 months ago noob. L2Play kk ty.

Your statements would only be valid for a n00b or a new lvl 50.
For us original players with 50s for a long time, most of us have full cleared EV/KP on HM and NM.... sad part is, our servers are DEAD now and cant try the new operation.....so uh yeah, NOT FUN. No one to play with ffs.

break it down to basics

the carrot on the stick

there is no carrot on the end of the stick here at end game. there are few choices to even concern yourself with gearing endgame, if any at all. The amount of content once you hit 50 is redundant in a matter of days, save for the raid lockout wich forces you to come back another week or two to fully experience it. Anyone who games knows there is HUGE void at endgame here, forget for one second the IP and pretend this was a noname title......even a blind man could see the non existence of content

This shows how hilariously out of touch Bioware is. Most people I know have done few, if any, of the HM FPs--they skipped them. The fix to give people something to do is trivial.

Up the ante for doing HM flashpoints. This would add huge incentive to do flashpoints. The HM daily quest reward should be scaled to the difficulty of the heroic completed, and should include Rakata and Black Hole tokens as appropriate:

The Black Talon: Keep as-is, "LFG quick daily BT HM" in General Chat makes my stomach turn
Boarding Party: Add 1 Rakata token
The Foundry, Directive 7: Add 2 Rakata token
The Battle of Ilum, The False Emperor, Kaon under Siege: Add 1 Black Hole token
Lost Island: Add 2 Black Hole token

This fix to give people something to do is trivial. It would take the developers a few days to implement. To anyone who "dooms and glooms" this idea, well...bye bye--you don't WANT to do anything, so shut up.

plenty to do in this MMO but giving out end game tokens in easy dungeons is pretty stupid and so is your idea.
