Are androids and Iphones declared as "required" for playing this game?

May I ask way the hell is a fleet pass? I have the security key fob from my collectors edition, but i dunno what a fleet pass is. I know stupid question right?

You can buy the fleet pass from the security vendor in-game (there's one on the fleet, for example). Using it will instantly transport you to the fleet.

Statistics are made up on the spot 75% of the time.

I can do the same with the Emergency Fleet Pass, so there isn't an improvement.

You didn't even read my post.

Really, now ppl are crying about the SV fleet passes?

Pro Tip: You know you that you can board you personal starship and fly to the fleet!

Instant travel to the fleet of your faction.

Everyone has the inate ability, (look under you general abilities) and the security vendoer sells extras for 1k credits.

sorry OP but we PAID for our access or we got it for free using a phone we PAID for, if your live in a country that cant accomplish the same things 90% of the planet can then how is it our issue?

you complain you cannot buy a key at all, ummm i am sure there are dozens of people who would gladly send you a key if you were to prehaps payal them the 4 usd. well to be honest maybe more like 10 usd to cover shipping.

you dont have a smartphone? neither do i.

the stuff in the security key vendor is a bonus for people who USE A SECURITY KEY, it is not for people who do not use a key. how hard is that to accept?

i guess the collectors edition folks should nto have vip passes to the top, while the rest of us need 1 million credits to get our passes?

or those people who get the pre prder crystals should not get them because you didnt pre order?

sound to me that OP is making mountains out of molehills and trying to really argue that the security key vendor fleet pass is a needed item. oh wait i forgot WE ALL HAVE FLEET PASSES, if you are always in such trouble in game you need emergency passes then find a way to get a security key fob....period.
otherwise the fleetpass you got is pretty much all you need, that and quick travel.

this topic is almost trollish, almost, i am sorry not each and every single person in the world can purchase the things i can, that really sucks but not really a problem for the community. sigh i used to think my first world probs were such a big thing, then you read about second and third world issues like not being able to buy a security key chain for a video game sheesh thought i had it rough.

Assuming you've activated it, you can go to any of the security token vendors there's one on the 'bank' level of vaiken spacedock and one just outside kaas city on drommund kaas for example. One of the items they sell is a 1000 credit fleet pass (req level 16). Consumed on use, or consumed when you start casting and even if you cancel it the item is still used. Stackable.

Using it teleports you to the centre of the fleet more or less, and it's I think a 60 minute (might be 30 minute?) cooldown.


I don't see how they are 'required' as per the op though. They're a value added convenience feature to try and get people to use a security authentication system. Also, expect to see the security tokens available in more countries as time goes on, but there are export restrictions around cryptography products that make it a nuisance to sell them everywhere, and it takes time to get permission for all of that.

There has been talk of shortening the cooldown on the Emergency Fleet Pass ability to something more reasonable.

when this will happen is unknown, but hopefully it is soon.

wow you really can't read can you. the OP said he lives in an "unofficial country" and can't buy one. try reading next time.

Sorry but I just have to laugh whenever someone complains about travel time in TOR. Spending 5 minutes to get to planet from planet is not a significant time drain. Those who complain otherwise has either never played another MMO where traveling is truly a chore or they just have no sense of time, period. In fact, I just timed myself the other day. Getting from the Combat Training section of Imperial Fleet Station to the Shuttle landing pad on the surface of Ilum took all of 2:56 seconds. And I don't even have a top of the line rig to lower the zone loading time.

This isn't Star Trek. There is no widespread "beam me up" option. Fleet pass is not an essential part of the game since traveling is not that time consuming in the first place.
