For your own account protection? Yeah, I can see where that would be a bummer ... They give this as a perk, just as Blizzard does, for getting something that will protect your account ... It is a great investment if you don't have an iphone/android, which I don't .... $6.and change .....

I honestly don't know why blizzard even bothered putting in zones other than raid/dungeons and just have a port to each of them ... People's are lazy .... P.S. and thanks for posting this thread, it just reminded me I need to buy some more Fleetpasses

Security vendor is avalible to those who use authentificator system. Authentificator system is avalible to those who use Idevices or androids(for free afaik). It also exists as small physical thing (for price afaik) which seems not to be avalible to all the countries, that may OFICIALLY buy and use this game. It is not mentioned among goods for my region, neither on the site (swtor.com), nor in origin store SWTOR page - client and timecards are all they offer. So, following the simple logic - unless I buy myself an I-device\android device, I'll NEVER get an access to important in-game feature (Fleet Pass). Though I pay same subscribtion. And we are talking not about some rare mounts or pets or holodancers or special outfits. We are talking about NEEDED in-game feature here. I also found that they said that odd, to say the least. Considering the many posts I've seen about problems with Security Keys and the many people (myself included) who refuse to use them, I can't believe they would consider that (the Fleet Pass) a standard item that all players have access to. Hello, BioWare! Assuming everyone is using a Security Key is like assuming everyone bought a Collector's Edition. It's simply an unrealistic assumption. Make Fleet Passes available via regular vendors and then you can say that Travel is not a problem. Until then it remains an issue. Okay? Okay.
Only the meek get pinched. The bold survive.

If they didn't think it was an improvement why would the mention that those with Fleet Pass don't need it? As was mentioned earlier, to point it out to the people. A question is being asked about an alternative means of transportation and they bring up another such means already in the game. BW did not make any statements about the quality of the travel system, nor did they say QT to ship or the fleet pass is an improvement to the system.

Run up to my pilot chair, open starmap and find Fleet. Select it, brief load, run to back of ship and load Fleet. The whole process takes about 10 minutes. 10 minutes everyone has to wait on me. If I had the 60 min fleet pass, i could be there in 2 mins or less. Or you could take the mission shuttle located on the planet and save about 10 minutes of your time, but that would take away the reason to complain about a fluff item available to people who have an authenticator or download an emulator for free. time difference if quick travel is available, assuming you haven't used it, is less than a minute and with quicktravel used it is the ride time to the mission shuttle.

i just cant see how on earth someone could see this as required. the best you could say is "i lose a couple minutes now and then" as your gigantic penalty, and honestly i doubt its even a couple minutes. 10 seconds to port near ship, 20 seconds to run to ship... yeah.

In no way is anything being said about the quality of the traveling system. But aren't I entitled to EZ mode for everything from travel to PvP to OPs. I should travel anywhere I want instantly, win against every class 1v1 and be able to solo OPs for the best gear.

I hated my iPhone security key. I ended up not playing a lot of the time - now thats security! I'd do it if I was in a raid guild or something. But as a casual gamer playing a casual game, if I get hacked...well...I'll casually exit the game stage right... Or start a new account...

All they bring in that situation is an extra layer of time and some potential problems. If a 1 hour Fleet Pass is a carrot on a stick, then the travel system itself is the whip. And 1H Fleet Passes still aren't NEEDED to play the game I didn't even use one until well after I hit 50.
