Unsuscribe already ? Top 2 things that would had made you stay

I've pretty much decided that I'll be sticking around for the indefinite future, but there are a few things I'd like to see improved as the months go on.

1) Armormech (and I'm assuming other crafting skills as well) seems very cluttered and unorganized. I really like the idea of Reverse Engineering, but I feel like the UI and entire process could be more organized and could enable greater sorting/filtering.

2) More data! Let it be known that I thoroughly enjoy all the X series of games (spreadsheets in space), and I think EVE could be the most amazing PvP oriented MMO ever conceived if the leads got their heads out of the clouds. Still, I remember fondly doing the stat calculations for warrior tanking in WoW, and really enjoy the challenge an MMO can provide in the form of a puzzle or computation. I'm probably nuts though.

3) Player community. I started TOR because a couple buddies finally talked me into it, and I really enjoy playing with our small group. I've also had some fun chats in general with randoms, just goofing around and shooting the poo. The one thing I have yet to experience though, is a friendly community. In general, even people I run by while questing seem lost in their own world. Only occasionally do I get a /wave or /greet in response to my own. I think that is how communities grow, emotes are exchanged, parties are formed, quests are shared, poo is shot, and guilds are grown. Yeah, I'm definitely nuts...

People expect a game with seven years of polish right out the gate. Completely unrealistic yes, but fair weather customers are always going to be fickle.

WoW was nowhere near this good when it launched, it didn't get popular until around six months after release.

The problem is the people that got into the game when BC, Wrath or Cata came out. They have absolutely no idea what a **** hole that game was for a very large part of Vanilla. It was a long, long time before Blizzard got their **** together and that game started running smoothly.

TOR is like a Lamborghini next to a Pinto as far as launch months go.

In fact, I'd go as far to say that judging by WoW's launch, the only reason it didn't sink was because of the over all abysmal state of the MMO market at the time. That's the only reason Blizzard lasted long enough to get their legs back under them and running.

#1.

This is killing my gaming experience. I'll be havin a blast listenin to my quests and seeing what I need to do, and then bam... combat time.
I can't start up the game right now. I just can't make myself play through that, it bothers me that much.
As soon as that gets fixed up, I'll be back.
Really no other complaints.

You got that right. This game is buggy but its also really good. It has more features than wow ever thought of at launch. Not to mention pvp was 3 shots your dead. There as no sprint buff it took hours to run across the barrens lol man so bad now that i think about it.

hey fixed your post, you're welcome

-me.

edit: bought a 6 month sub for this game. I have faith they'll be fixing everything soon enough.

No problems on my end, except for one time when a commendation went into my inventory instead of my list of currencies, and it was a DK commendation (read: who cares).

Otherwise, smooth sailing, and I'm loving this game.

some things I would like to see to make me keep subbing are:

1. A way to advance your character besides the gear treadmill (legacy looks to possibly be able to provide this)

2. More customization in crafting. I want to be able to make things that are unique, not the same blaster pistol that everyone else can make.

3. More variety. I understand this game is new, but once you get to 50 doing it a second time is pretty much exactly the same minus the class quest differences. There nees to be choice of whether you want to visit one planet or a different one that is the same level.

4. Better LFG tool. I understand they do not want to destroy the community, but I would like a better way to find groups for FPs when I am out and about doing dailies crafting etc. maybe a galaxy-wide channel if you are LFG or something.

I am sticking with the game for now to see where it goes. I know it is new and I know that they need time. They have stated that they are listening to the community so I just wanted to put my 2 cents in.

And where the hell is the wookie homeworld? I wanna kill me some big furry chewbacca looking bigfoot wannabes.

1) If they would have listened to the testers and put back the "match colors to chestpiece" option that was in the beta. I refuse to play Trooper without this option because half the time my Commando looks like a clown.

2) If they had put the planetary GTNs back.

3) If they hadn't increased the difficulty from the beta. Some enemies have way too many hitpoints.

4) If they had eliminated the orbital stations. Why can't I land on a planet?

5) If they hadn't pulled the cancel account scandal.

I would have stayed.
