Waiting. The way I see it, this ''expansion'' should be covered in my monthly fee. I bet anyway sooner or later they release another ''expansion'' and you'll get this one for free if you buy the 2nd expansion. Buy 1 get 2 deal you know...

Cartel market, Cartel market, Cartel market. And considering how little we do to fix bugs and help people with problems, we can continue to do that as well, since they seem to be satisfied".
Ah! If they had prioritised bug fixing more than content you would be here QQing that theres not enough content.
Thats why most of my previous guild left. Bugs were annoying, but lack of content is unbearable.
Besides, different teams have different jobs. More bug fixing doesnt come at the cost of content.

I think its high time to smart up and realise that different people have different jobs. It wont do you any good to put the 3D animators, the writers or the designers on bug fixing duty. You would just be paying them to do nothing.

I see from several pages the original poster just created this thread to pounce on the opinions of others. Super mature. I think you were a TA at a university I attended.

As for the expansion:
Not getting it. I never found Hutts very interesting and tried to slug through their bit as quickly as I could in KOTOR 2. I'm sure they may do something interesting later in the game that requires the expansion, but who knows it may be available for CC at a discount by then. So I guess to summarize: not unless I have to, to get to something interesting.

I'm waiting. I'll continue to support this game via subscribing but I am not giving them more money until I know it's worth it. It will also go F2P eventually so im not sure there is a point in paying for it.

I paid around £15 for the digital upgrade pack which is now something like £2.99 since F2P hit. Im annoyed about that because you don't need the digital upgrade pack to play the game but im more annoyed at myself for buying the game then buying the upgrade pack separately.

But I digress. This to me isn't an expansion, its a content patch, a big one but a content patch nonetheless. I'll probably just wait until it goes free because even though it's £5 they are bound to do something with the content patch which is going to anger those who payed for it and I don't want to repeat the above mistake I made with the Digital Upgrade Pack
. Never Forget

I'll get it so long as it is not open world pvp; that is not my taste at all. I do wish they'd give more concrete info on Makeb. yes, they gave a little which sounds appealing to me. But I really want to know a bit more yet. The added skill points and abilities sound fun.

I know nobody will read my reply among hundreds of others... but i grabbed it as soon as i found out.
My time card ends on December 5th. I have no intent to subscribe, let alone play, after i have completed all 9 episodes of KotFE. Likely i will subscribe for a single month to finish off the ''season'', play what remains and then say good bye to SWTOR until the END of the next season. Enjoy Bioware!

Not Buying it - at least not right now.

More Information would be nice

- New FP/FPs?
- New Ops ? - probably impossible. if F2p get the "Patch" (I refuse to call it Expansion yet) they wont have access to ops anyways so why should they spend money if they cant get into those without a weekly Access Pass. Same for the mentioned question of FPs
- Really new skills or just Reworked animations. Ive seen it within other games.. u spend 2 points for 20% crit chance or whatever.. after the "patch" u spend 4 points to avoid tree changes and spend the new points.
- No mention of a new race? Disapointing in a Galaxy with Million Specias.
- Maybe a quick overview about the Size of Makeb. U guys already showed us u can create awesome Trailer for Patches or Intros. Show us something.
- (Now i am getting Greedy) I Preorderd the CE. Do i get something special for that or just: "thanks for the money and **** u!" A new CE only Mount on the CE Vendor. maybe a Unique Piece of Clothing.


1 Planet and 5 LvL.. tell us more

(Flame if u like, but thats what i want to know before i get this "patch". I can have fun Ingame without him aswell)

Didn't pre-order yet, but I'm seriously considering ordering it before the early access offer runs out. I'll probably wait until the first week of the new year, see what info is available then, and then pre-order anyway. There'd have to be some pretty strong deterrents to keep me off it, such as everyone having the world PvP flag forcibly enabled on Makeb.

But for BW is more: More content means more bugs to be fixed.
Fix the game/bugs first THEN release an Xpac and by xpac I mean a real xpac not some added content.
