Yeah, we've seen this bug before, and we will probably see it again in the future. It's not surprising for an MMO to have old bugs reappear. I've seen it in just about every MMO I have played. So, once again, I can't get too worked up about it. I'm not excusing it, I am simply not going to let it dictate my enjoyment of the game.
When you find yourself surrounded by hostile Clowns... always go for the "Juggler" first.

Which means it will get fixed faster then "soon"

If we had old bugs that wouldnt be so bad, last time it was just implants, this time they went the whole fubar, get tagged by a mob or a player while on a speeder, you are pretty much screwed because your companion is useless.

They improved the bug this time, and you're still complaining!
Real Star Wars space combat please, not Star Wars Fox! Maybe some PvP and flight too?

I played WoW from Vanilla to TBC. Played Rift for about 6 months. Can't remember this happening in either of these games... especially on something as big as this.

Anyone else also notice that any Presence you may have is also gone? And since my Presence comes from all of the maxed out companions I have on alts there is no "re-equip" fix for this...
"50 Grades of Shae", a heart-warming novel about a Mandalorian that delivers beat-downs and assigns grades to her victims.

Not noticed that, but that would have a BIG effect too.

Sadly, you are likely right on this. I find it ridiculous that this isn't on the standard QA test list, especially given the number of times it's happened in the past and the impact it has on the game.
