  1. I don't understand how game breaking, progression halting bugs are treated as, "We know about them, we'll get to them when we can." Subs seem to be charged without any delays. People stuck in KOTET are supposed to do what right now? Keep paying to not play?
  2. They should add it to the Legacy system. Lv50 Legacy and something silly like 5 million credits for 12x Class Exp 1-55. You don't wanna make it a permanent 12x exp for class quests because in the future if we get more, people may not want the boost at the time.
  3. Can anyone direct me as to where i can pick up the class quests? I have finished Act 3 and Ilum/Makeb on Consular and Smuggler and would really love to see more class story for them, however small it may be. And please add me to the list of people who is all for more story. I'm more excited about these stories than the other expac stuff.
  4. Are you guys seriously going to charge for even subscribers to play as a Cathar. And then based on the number of people who play as a Cathar, you will decide if actual wanted species will be playable down the line? I stopped playing in the summer last year. Resubbed for a bit, even bought the expac. Stopped again till the expac came out and have resubbed again. But if literally everything in 2.1 including the new species is locked behind cartel coins, I really am done. When Makeb was first announced, it was not supposed to be paid for extra. Cathar wasn't. I have no problem with modern F2P MMO's. Many of them are done well. You can subscribe and get all the benefits. but if after buying a CE, having an active subscription and buying the expac, if I'm expected to still pay more for a new species and an appearance customization feature which I can get in other MMO's without paying extra, I am seriously done. Call it trolling, call me unreasonable, whatever. This is just over the line.
  5. Yeah, I was actually gearing up an alt and had gotten 2 WH pieces so far. But, now I get the feeling I shouldn't bother because why get a WH set when in a few weeks it will be obsolete? Might as well just store my WZ comms right?
  6. There is no reason to world pvp in this game. Until Bioware adds stat tracking, valour gains, etc. killing other people is essentially a waste of.time. At least out in the world. There aren't any objectives to fulfil by killing them, no bonuses to gain, no goal to work towards. It is literally you going out of your way to prevent another player from doing what they are trying to do. Some people may enjoy that, but I get the impression that the majority of MMO players nowadays don't want to kill each other for the sake of killing. Specially in a timed event area. It simply makes more sense to just get your quests done rather than waste a session killing other PC's that will give you nothing more than a feeling of, "Haha I annoyed those noobs." I really think Bioware has no interest in encouraging actual world PvP. Its nice that after over a year, we are at least getting common questing areas for both factions. Although lets see if its just an event thing or if Makeb will continue it. But they really need to give people a reason to pvp.
  7. People spend money on the cash shop to compliment or enhance their experience of the main game. If the game ends up severely dropping in quality with all the focus just on the cash shop, people aren't going to keep buying cartel coins. It's fun to buy a new outfit and speeder and see them in action in fun content. But if that fun content starts drying up, are people going to keep buying the cosmetics?
  8. I have unsubscribed too. I held off for as long as possible, but its time. The second guild I was in has broken up due to lack of people playing anymore. I don't see what the point is of hyping and releasing another tiered raid as the highlight of a content update when I have barely done EC story mode once. Other long standing issues have got me tired too. Story is hyped to be a big selling point, but one of the key story features, the codex has so many bugged/missing entries. After months of reporting, we finally got word that they will be "addressed" in the future. But we are coming up to a year now for the game and having the codex still being so broken is just silly. Titles were hyped as a big thing prior to launch and yet most planetary titles are unavailable. The little things bother me too. We have /dance but every race, male or female does the same one. May be silly to many, but I enjoyed and still enjoy the various racial dances in other MMO's. WoW, GW2, LotrO, heck even FFXIV can have racial dances, but its too much for TOR. We don't have any achievement system, unless you count the broken codex, despite them saying "We love achievements" over and over in Q&A's. Oh and one of my biggest issues is the unnecessarily convoluted and very user unfriendly mod system. People wanna wear cosmetic outfits, just freaking let them. Why create so many roadblocks with the stupid mod system. Let us just have cosmetic slots. Not this pull mods, put them in a new outfit, pull them again, put them in somewhere else everytime you wanna switch crap. Pay to do so every time, so if you wanna switch your look around often, it will cost you. If I see an interesting looking piece of gear, let me just wear it cosmetically instead of creating so many roadblocks. The Legacy system sounded interesting, but what is it? Just money sinks for minor changes. I thought we were supposed to be able to customize the way we wanna play. So I spend a ton of money to improve my exploration/story mission exp and it barely does anything. Thought this was a story focused MMO. Every other option is just a massive money sink. Legacy was hyped to be something that was going to reward you for playing alts and you could unlock lots of stuff. Instead all it ends up being is a silly money sink with very few attractive features. I won't even get into Ilum, enough has been said about that disaster. But, where is world PvP? Why do the devs keep insisting that when players ask for world PvP, we mean PvP locked in 1 planet? What is the point of PvP servers in this game when you have to go out of your way to find the other faction most of the time? Why are there 0 incentives to world PvP? The companion system is very cool I will say, however I have an issue there too. Why are we forced to use specific companions for certain play styles? This is a story focused MMO, so let me use the companion I enjoy interacting with the most instead of having to use a specific one because I need a tank. Let all the companions be able to fill any role so the choice is up to the player as to who he/she brings rather than the game mechanics deciding for you. Isn't choice supposed to a big thing for Bioware too? I have supported Bioware for a long time and will continue to do so, but I feel like I have done enough for this game at least. Its up to you guys to win me back now.
  9. People on these forums(well any internet forum) whine to no extent about the smallest thing. Imagine the level of whining these forums will produce if a couple months from now a hidden third option is revealed for an event with an exclusive title or something? After all the devs and the community team has endured from the posters here, you really think they would set themselves up for that? People who like this idea will just go wow awesome, and move on. The bigger majority will be people who go OMG BIOWARE SUX WHERE IS MAH OPTION? and make these forums even more insufferable for the next few weeks till Bioware relents and offers a compromise. At which point the original group will return and go OMG BIOWARE SUX **** YOU. Yeah, why bother...
  10. 1. More questing in common areas to promote world pvp. 2. A real achievement system with titles and cosmetic pets/speeders to unlock. 3. A more user friendly way to display outfits you want, mod system is extremely clunky and cost prohibitive. Look at LotrO's cosmetic system for an example.
  11. The point is decisions of that magnitude aren't taken on a whim and when the whole situation is in such a state of flux, its silly to think that they have already decided on what will happen and let every employee know and given the ok to let the general public know as well. If EA indeed is up for sale, how much sense do you think it makes to let the whole world know that one of its biggest properties will be shut down? Secondly, whose decision do you think it is? Don't you think the buyer would decide? And you seriously expect any potential buyer to tell every EA/Bioware employee what their plans for a property they don't yet own is and give the go ahead to reveal it to everyone when all talks of them buying are very preliminary? No, it is not stupid, its an extremely stupid question. And raging about dumb questions like these not being answered kinda makes me understand why community reps don't communicate enough.
  12. I gotta be honest, I'm a Bioware fanboy but you really shouldn't be coming out with a grand announcement of improved communication and talk of "We will deliver" and all that only for it to become a sprinkling of "We don't know yet" comments within 2 weeks. I'm sure their hearts are in the right place, but you need more for the community. I get the risks of putting even tentative dates to anything, but this whole communication thing needed to be a company wide goal, not just Joveth and his team. We've heard of Makeb and HK for a while now and still don't have any indication of whether either is coming this year, whether they will be free, paid only to F2P players, etc. I'm not one of those people who go F2P = failure, because really other than WoW today, what sub only MMO is a raging success? I get that F2P hybrid is the future for every MMO. But, we know very little about how its going to work here and that's a MAJOR thing the whole increased communication should be addressing even to the point of redundancy. And with some more solid answers than a constant barrage of "We will let you know". You still want us to keep subscribing, but right now its a lot on faith. Every announcement I hear says quicker content updates, yet there isn't even a sniff of anything new on the PTS. How about something like "By the end of this month, or end of September the PTS will have 1.4"? Its been almost 2 months since 1.3, which had very little new content although the LFG tool is probably the best thing added to this game since launch. I, honestly am just seeing more talk and less delivering. I will say though stupid questions like "Tell us if the game will be shutdown if EA is sold" are just that, stupid.
  13. Slave Trading on Nar Shaddaa for Republic Players is at 2456, -1552 in Shadow Town. Saw it during the Chevin event. Maybe the event caused it to appear for some reason? Not sure if it will be there only temporarily.
  14. Well, they could just not do a Q&A. Would that make you feel better. These Q&A's didn't just start happening 2 days ago. They've been around for a while. Most everyone knows what to expect from them. So why do you get upset? Just pretend they don't exist. You aren't getting your "Give me a developer outline for the next 2 years of this game" questions answered. Yet you rage every week? Seems silly.
