  1. It sounds easier said than done. I'm not a programmer, but whenever there are significant issues with the events it seems like they have to wait until the next round to resolve them. - Arcada
  2. Server population on Ebon Hawk seems healthy. However, I remember the days of Shien dying so whenever I see people on fleet I'm like "game still surviving!" . Haven't had an issue with pops though. Even GSF... - Arcada
  3. Okay, I've actually not encountered too many bugs over the years and have found the SWTOR Customer Service to be quite helpful so I'm going to give this a pass. Not threats of unsubscribing . However, I just want to point out that this is not an Early Access title. This is the first time I pondered how much I've put into the title (as a subscriber since launch, I'd guesstimate over half a grand?). Given that these events are now becoming meaningful in terms of the new expansion, this is the first time I've actually geared up to participate in an event as opposed to just stumbling across it. I'm a little disappointed. So that is to say A) good job on making old content relevant again, but B) players are really going to notice these screw ups now. Well, I guess they always noticed but I think they have extra reason to be annoyed . - Arcada
  4. Eric... I've been subbed since launch so am not a novice, but I had no idea that this was the intent for companions under the new system. I dunno, how about a daily to take your companion or weekly to take out a rotation of companions to complete missions? In my mind: Heroics or Flashpoints = grouping with other players. Companions = planetary content that I can solo when I'm not feeling lazy. - Arcada
  5. Well, what is a casual? I log-in weekly for a play session of about 5-7 hours, sometimes more than that, and I do hit my weekly fairly often. I have sets of armour for PVP and PVE, and usually am just attaining the top-tier gear when they come out with the next. Am I casual? In terms of Heroics, I respond to calls to group periodically. I don't feel awkward about testing the waters to do them. I also try out Heroics by myself (2+) every once and a while to see if I can solo them . - Arcada
  6. I essentially agree with you, but its possible they have an ending in mind in terms of a confrontation, etc. but haven't quite figured out the specifics of how that will play out in terms of the future universe. Breaking Bad is an example of a show that seems to have an arc, and certainly the writers had an "idea" of how things were going to play out but they apparently didn't figure out the specific ending until they started writing the last episode. Which is a good way to do things if you care about fan reaction; you can really tailor the experience to what people like. - Arcada
  7. I'm thinking you log in like normal, and then there is a random chance every time you you walk out of your vehicle that you trip and fall into liquid carbonite while untold legions of Eternal Empire troops storm the landing zone and kill everyone, including your companions, who stream out of your ship, all to . - Arcada
  8. You know, I really like the Bad Feeling Podcast but they make some sensationalist claims sometimes. Previously they suggested that the pre 60-65 planetary content is going to be deleted or significantly altered to reflect the new story line (which I find extremely hard to believe). Most recently, they've suggested that certain achievements are going to be deleted come Tuesday, and after the expansion, you won't be able, for example, to achieve certain companion achievements, etc. They've even suggested there will be no fleet! Is there any documentation to this effect? Sure we've been told of changes to the crafting and companion system, but if we were really headed towards being locked out of content you think they'd have an entire advertising campaign of "LAST CHANCE TO DO X, Y or Z". Personally, I'm sort of picturing a "phase" with all the new content but still being able to go the old planets, Makeb, or Fleet. Why the heck would they delete pre-existing content when the concern is not enough content? Are they going to be writing chapters as quickly as we can complete them? Seems to me that is where they got burned in Year One! Thoughts? - Arcada
  9. Hmmmm... I'm sure the writing team has a pretty solid idea where the story will go, maybe not the final moments of the final episode. Honestly, they might be interested in seeing how the player based responds to the initial chapters before ending it. If we buy-in to this storyline and people start subscribing they may take their time wrapping it up. If we don't, they might wrap it up sooner and go onto the next master plan to make money . - Arcada
  10. Unless you wait for all the content to be released and then sub; then it is relatively inexpensive. Personally, I have stayed subscribed since release and have no plans to change. - Arcada
  11. Yes, and there is a new loader for the game now. I guess they are (smartly) preparing for 4.0 . - Arcada
  12. Have you ever had a conversation with someone who went to an all-girls school? They have this crazy look in their eye.. - Arcada
  13. I was about to say you are full of it but it does actually have a striking resemblance to the Fallout 3 Power Armour of the Brotherhood of Steel. Cool. That's not a bad thing! - Arcada
