Aside from starting planets, CZ-198, and Ziost I won't do heroics on a non-stealth class. Even with 326+ gear it takes entirely too long and drains all the fun out of playing. On top of that, seeing a level 30 mob withstand my attacks better than anything at level 80 breaks the immersion.

Bugs that are not on the fixlist?!!
TheGreatHambino replied to Florrentius's topic in General Discussion
I've noticed that when a bug is reported, Dev replies have basically said "Congratulations, you've found a bug that we've been aware of. Now that it's been found we'll add it to the published list of known issues." It would be great if they'd give us a more comprehensive list that way time isn't wasted reporting something they already know about, and we know what should be avoided in-game. -
Cannot pick up Republic Balmorra bonus series quest
TheGreatHambino replied to MeetraOrdo's topic in Bug Reports
There have been quite a few responses like this from the Dev team. It's possible I'm missing some information somewhere, but shouldn't the Known Issues list be a list of problems that the developers know about, and not a list of issues that have been found by players? I'm sure people would like to know there's a problem with something they're about to do BEFORE they lose time, credits, materials, or gear because of the issue. -
It's hard to be upset with issues in an 11 year old game being run by a minimal crew, but this one is extra special.

The game just downloaded an update and now I'm stuck on the Onslaught loading screen. I was able to play earlier today without any problems. Is anyone else running into this?

You forgot the post-match whispers from the elite PvP player calling you garbage, blaming you for the loss, and telling you to never queue again.

2019 content delayed to 2020 due to great feedback
TheGreatHambino replied to LordAppius's topic in General Discussion
You mean like they've done for the past 3 - 4 years? Look, I think OP is way off base, but let's not get ahead of ourselves. The devs have a LONG history of abandoning their renewed focus and efforts (Class Representatives, anyone?). Harvey Keitel had a great line to Vincent and Jules in Pulp Fiction that absolutely applies here. -
Not having to produce new content means fewer staff, which allows the community to get to know the 4 remaining BW employees on a much more personal level. We all know Keith, Eric and Charles, but I'm really looking forward to learning more about Ted, the Operations Developer / Combat Developer / Environment Developer / Artist / QA Tester / Network Admin / Janitor / Receptionist / Intern.

I don't tend to be a contrarian but this isn't correct. There are Job Developers, Business Developers, Program (not software) Developers, Relationship Developers, and a number of other "Developer" titles. All of them have nothing to do with coding but most certainly have a hand in the cultivation and growth of a business.

When SWTOR finally shuts down, whether it's 6 months or 6 years from now, there will invariably be the "confession" posts on places like Reddit from anonymous former developers. What questions would you want them to answer about the life of the game? Personally, I'd like to know how many people were actually working on the game after 2016, and how heavily EA dictated development.
-
I was just about to post a link to this article. If it's true, the nosedive development and communication have taken after Keith's promises to re-engage makes a lot more sense, although it's fairly obvious they're working with a near skeleton crew at this point.

I was being a smart*** in response to that part of his post. West coast servers no longer exist, therefore nobody is playing on them.
-
I know for a fact there's nobody playing on west coast servers. And there's no patch that can be installed or configuration that can be tweaked to change the fact that the servers have moved 3,000 miles. Geographic distance is not a bug. They MIGHT be able to eliminate a hop or two, but west coast and particularly APAC players are going to be negatively impacted by this.

I think this best describes by feelings about what was written here.
