  1. So because I had a Tuesday off that just happened to coincide with the day the expansion dropped my argument somehow lacks merit? Okay.
  2. No suprise or shock there. Truly a shame, they could have capitalized on the new movie and revitalized the game, but they took the easy way out it appears. @ the Battlefront content and "value" comments.. Value is a very opinionated thing. One mans value may be considered another mans trash. I'm not saying its ALL trash. I'm saying it feels like more work could have been put into it. @ "They're never happy, you can never please them! Such a game for you does not exist!" Actually turns out WoW has these things called raids, encourages group content with massive amounts of in-game events (one of which is called 'time-walking'). Plus I found a nice guild to help me and whatnot. For all the scoffing and hawing at WOW these days, it sure seems like I know a lot more about their upcoming expansion than I ever did about KOTFE's. You know, now that I think about it....it kinda feels like Blizzard's proud of the upcoming expansion. That they don't want to hide details of it in shame because they know players will talk about it on the forums. Another thing that causes me great pause is Bioware's recent censorship of critics of level-sync. Again, I have to wonder why. And to instinctively reply to those of you saying "Why don't you go play WoW if you dislike the new expac! Gosh!" Well, unfortunately I made the choice to do a long-term subscription to SWTOR prior to the expac's release. I trusted (hesitantly) that Bioware would provide a substantial amount of content to enjoy. I did not expect a storyline that could be completed in one evening without even trying. It would be awesome if a Customer Service Rep got in touch with me via PM's so we could discuss the possibility of a partial refund of my six-month subscription and cancellation of my account. I don't want to be here anymore than you guys want to see my posts. But...until then, I shall make full use of the features available to me on this forum as a current subscriber.
  3. So basically you're the customer Bioware wants to cater to. You don't do group content, you perfer nothing but story. Thus enabling to put in minimal effort for maximum profit on an MMO.
  4. Honestly I simply feel like I'm no longer the target audience for Bioware in this MMO. I feel like I've been left out in the cold, and the fact that my guild pretty much died off for me when my GM quit killed almost any motivation for me to continue playing.
  5. As a review: The expansion is a fun little story that one can knock out in one evening. That's it. Just one evening. Kinda bad really, especially the pacing. The story and the "bonuses" themselves were not worth subscribing for. In fact I would higlhy recommend that if you are here for the story that you unsubscribe and enjoy the story as a F2P. Frankly what has been released (including the lack of group content) is no where's near enough to justify a subscription anymore. The story telling has improved, and the cutscene's look much better and flow alot better as well I will applaud Bioware on that at least. I don't know if I will subscribe again, I really don't. The announcement of KOTFE releasing without new raid content to challenge caused several of my closest friends and my guilds GM to quit and leave for another game thus effectively killing my guild. Sigh what else...oh, the lack of actual changes in the galaxy or new zones post-SoR or KOTFE is laughable. Sure you hear bits about it in the story, but you never see changes to any of the core worlds. Also the companions being taken away and scattered throughout the galaxy to re-obtain is straight up ********. After experiencing it firsthand I can firmly state that it is one of the WORST decisions Bioware has ever made. One final note, as fun as the story was...it feels so far detached from the Star Wars mythos that it might as well be its own random space opera fantasy MMO at this point. Sure they are wielding lightsabers and crap, but the factions are so flat out bizarre its bad. Knights that use the Force as a tool for justice, random seers that use the force to forsee the destiny...bleh. Just feels wrong. Oh well, I've wasted enough time on this post. Plus there are at least 20 or so other posts on why this expac is bad so w/e. Bye Bioware. Maybe someone will think of setting up a private server for Vanilla SWTOR, cause the new expac feels nothing like the MMO I originally signed up for.
  6. I hope that raiders from guilds that enjoy raiding content show up and ask you some hard hitting questions on your plans for group content going into the new expansion. Questions such as: Why did Bioware think it was a great idea to remove Nightmare Mode Content? Why did Bioware not create at least ONE new Story Mode raid for the upcoming expansion? How does Bioware intend to improve group content for guilds interested in end-game PVE content such as raiding or grouping for "challenging group content"? Will end-game PVE raiding content suffer the same disdain and disregard as PVP until it dies out from Biowares silence? How does Bioware propose to continue calling this a Massively Multiplayer Online Roleplaying Game if in 4.0 your main focus is on nothing but single player story so far? Will there at least be new tiers of gear for the recycled raid content you are pushing out? What types of new group activities does Bioware have planned for SWTOR at end-game if any? Will there ever again be challenging end-game content? If there will be challenging end-game content, will Bioware actually have players test the Story Mode raids in unoptimized entry level raiding gear? Will there be new flashpoints at least with the upcoming expansion? WIll those flashpoints have a new Hard Mode? My guildmaster and several of my fellow friends and guildmates have unsubscribed from Star Wars: The Old Republic thanks to Bioware's current take on raiding come 4.0. I would like some form of justification or excuse to continue playing Star Wars: The Old Republic as a raider. But I fear I won't recieve any, and shall most likely get trollish / defensive replies from well known forum members once this post circulates.
  7. So your allowed to rage and throw a hissy fit about something you don't like, but when the community immeadiately turns on you, spits in your face and then tells you exactly how to bypass the 12x xp you suddenly ask for Community Manager intervention? You know what? I hope they leave the thread open, you deserve nearly every word that has been posted in this thread. Maybe next time you'll stop and think before you throw your own little hissy fit over something without researching.
  8. Bioware? Working on a new class, laughable. They'd actually have to create content and not reskin something then!
  9. As an Agent, I went to Korriban to hunt Datacrons and lore. Datacrons were the easy bit of course, however SEVERAL (at least 4 total) lore entries were locked behind: a) Class quests b) LOCKED planetary quests What is the point of having lore at all if some lore is only obtainable by certain classes at certain times during certain quests? That is so gosh darn asinine its not even funny. Edit: Gosh Darn as an auto censorship? Jesus, I'd rather have the asterisks than that.
  10. Why would they bother fighting each other? The Sith Warrior just while the Inquisitor just got done . If anything they'd be in the academy cantina sharing drinks.
  11. The better question is, will SWTOR survive KOTFE? Cause uh, sure as hell doesn't look like it. Unless of course your one of the anti-social "I hate guildz cuz dey r elitst!" anti-group content carebears, apparently for the carebears this expansion is gonna be FANTASTIC!
  12. As a cat owner, I appreciate this image. I also need to de fur my keyboards now.
  13. How DARE you attempt to counter my antagonistic rant with a well thought out, logical and well written paragraph! How dare you!
