Can we not, in this day and age, figure out how to re-scale, or heaven forbid completely retexture, resized geometry? This looks just plain gross. https://file.garden/ZdDDzgIVGzlYE8YL/SWTOR/Lazy Odessen graphics.png ...and don't dare call it efficient use of resources for low-end computers. It's 2024. It's time we grew beyond graphics like this. Luckily, the powers that be soon will no longer support DirectX 9 in any way shape or form, so either the game gets a new DX11 / 12 API, or the game is yanked once the level of support is yanked. A new DX application programmer interface is not a magical fix, someone still must go in and fiddle after it's upgraded, but at least it opens the door to better graphics. Devs did great on the KOTFE/KOTET chapters, Onderon, Ossus... what the hell happened here? Edit: I'll have to say this, just to be fair. There are moments in cut scenes and just traveling around where sometimes I suspect that the DX API has already been upgraded because some of it looks really, really. And then... some things... don't. ...and then I remember that people would be burning down the forums complaining their ancient boxes can't play the game any more because DX11 does have higher harder requirements. SO. DX aside, there's still plenty that can be done with the current geometry and textures to fix the eyesores.

That's the only place on a Sontaran where they're vulnerable. Obviously a miss-shipment in supplies has occurred.

BUG: The Light of Diplomacy (Republic) Characters.

This is way past due for being fixed. -
What is with this week's forced PVP on the GS track?
xordevoreaux replied to TonyTricicolo's topic in General Discussion
I don't do rails in space, I don't do pvp, I don't do arena, so it looks like we're in the same boat. As long as we remain picky about what we do, there's room to gripe. -

xordevoreaux replied to TonyTricicolo's topic in General Discussion
Agreed. I'm ending the week 4/7 because of it. -
opened that ultimate platinum pack

1. MMOs are sales platforms first, games second. 2. Ridiculous prices aren't unique to SWTOR. 3. If you plan to burn money above and beyond a subscription, only reach into your back pocket to buy what you can see, not a random crate. If you still wish to buy a random crate, put your wallet away and buy using in-game credits on the GTN. Purchasing with accumulated in-game credits means all you've lost is hours of your life rather than real-world cash from your pocket. -
This is what happens when you transfer characters

Inappropriate behaviour and total lack of support.
xordevoreaux replied to Halaek's topic in General Discussion
False equivalency to set the median of behavior of all MMOs against SWTOR. I've been playing MMOs since Everquest 1 came out in 1999, and mushes and MUDs since the late 80's when Gemstone III by Simutronics came out in 1988, and to this day I still play EQ1 and EQ2, and in ten hours of play in either of those games, I might, repeat might (but more as likely not) hear 1 minute's worth of the trash-talking that I hear in SWTOR, so no. MMOs are not all the same in terms of the level of trash-talk. -
And as one of my guildmates correctly pointed it out, a super-fast global cooldown doesn't matter if you're a clicker and can't click the buttons as fast as your GCD permits. You're only as good as your eye-brain-finger combo. Being a clicker, my carefully curated mediocrity lands me about a full second behind optimal GCD.

Congrats, people, always great to see people give the devs a roadmap to make things harder. Good job. /s -
Dailies achievements reset since patch

Strongly suspect this issue is related somehow to this from the patch notes: -

Tells me someone's running SQL scripts against the database and has no clue what he's doing. -
While we are at it... let's nerf this too....
xordevoreaux replied to LJ_Gibbs's topic in General Discussion
Ah yes, yet another casual fomentation of a very predictable pitchfork rebellion when the devs do precisely what 3 people say without any further input from anyone else. Good job, guys. -
Not every mission is a mission?

Bad News, Predictable Disaster, Recovery Impossible
xordevoreaux replied to MadCuzBad's topic in General Discussion
You're right, it doesn't. 15 million I have the legacy purchase of the Umbara stronghold, but every time I want to unlock that legacy stronghold on another server, I first must pay over 3 million credits to get to the kiosk where it's locked behind a door on Odessen. Now I'm down to 11.x million and all I've done is unlock 1 stronghold that I already own.
