  1. Putting the idea over here wherein someone might see it as an active suggestion.
  2. Assuming that the character has passed a certain point in the story (defeated Arcann), let the terminal in Odessen allow us to re-summon Darth Marr... but in a certain way. Basically keep him with the combat lines he has from Chapter 1, but is a blue-glowy companion (force-ghost) that stays a force-ghost until he actually does an attack (then he can reappear as normal for the attack). Lore: remember, originally *George Lucas* was going to let the force ghosts pop in and back out of ghost status temporarily during his sequel trilogy... a bit of a nod to that with this for a popular character that a LOT would like to see return (Darth Marr) would be a great once-off companion. If the terminal is not doable... have it as a GS or PvP track reward/companion for those who are past the story point. An off-season "season" thing that can be earned by the whole legacy, but only usable by the characters past a certain story point.
  3. Appreciate the new server hamster, Bioware. Seems like we can get back in now.
  4. Seems to be ALIVE again! Please remember to feed that new hamster!
  5. Eh, it is probably the segment that handles star forge (edit)logins(/edit) itself (the ones tasked to handle eastern us shards). Interesting element is seeing the decaying pattern of days between each round; feels familiar.
  6. Admittedly, though, the problems appear to be in the login server itself, not the actual gameplay nodes.
  7. Someone please remember to feed them daily. Seems someone keeps forgetting to feed the ones that are running that little wheel for Star Forge. Dangit, this is three down in ONE MONTH. Third grade classrooms usually figure out feeding schedules better than we see... uh... someone feed them, please. *points left and right whilst looking innocent as possible*
  8. Someone... PLEASE make sure you feed the server hamster AT LEAST daily. Poor guy, running his heart out on that little wheel, trying to keep the server running... we could, at least, make sure he has enough lettuce to get through the day. Maybe even a carrot. Some borshcht... a little kombucha... some nice peppers, you know.
  9. PvPers get "we have still not blown up yet!" every time they hit a map. Be hilarious to visit a smuggler summer resort sort of event wherein the banners are all "still here, even if the planet is a ticketing toxic bomb!" "Enjoy the batha sliders, only two Markeb credits while we last!!"
  10. The PVP screen is now based on the same metric as the Galactic Seasons was... but it has a display issue on how to figure out how many days are left to earn a season's worth of PVP points. Basically a *very* minor offset means the math possibility will not work out for a minority of people. Because there is a weekly limit to how many points you can earn, it is theoretically possible to have stayed ahead of the credit buyout but still be about fifty to a hundred pvp points short of being able to earn all 7000 before the end on May 6th due to the thousand max limit per week. Suggestion: modify the display on "daily" limit until the end a bit closer to the actual limits of how the pvp points can be earned for future seasons, as anyone used to the pve GS system will likely not be crunching (earnable) point numbers vs. reward vs. purchasing. Essentially, the "weakness" of the calculation happens in the third to last week, depending on how the points are bought, earned, or figured for a launch (if you have three thousand outstanding). The display looks like you are still ahead of the purchase game to level 15, but there is a combination of purchasing / earning that leaves a detriment of upwards a hundred points no matter how you do the derivative on the earnable curve. A minor adjustment to the buyout curve (or adjusting to when it starts "counting down" by a day or two instead of the straight line of GS's estimation) instead of (end-date minus days left) for the counter would help with the mental adjustment of those not mathematically orientated. Whomever did GS' point curve had a good idea (and I approve of their work on the curves; they got the relative minima correct), whomever adjusted it for the PvP points is just a minor day or two off (this is why your applied calculus professor wanted you to pay attention to that first half of the first semester when talking about relative minima and maxima during a first derivative analysis of a function).
  11. Nautolan Inspector from the Banking Clan. Character has been mind-tricked into only wanting to surf ocean worlds instead of tracking down credit slicers out in the world. At least three of your former GS companions would comment on this from different points of view... this agent has been one heck of a forensic accountant in the past. Past the intro quest, companion tricks you into a surfing thing/swoop thing on Manaan. Then you get the idea that a force compulsion is at play (the swim trunks on a character that is basically an IRS agent could also give this away to us, the players). Eventually when you get him to companion influence 50, you get a quest to see the person who mind-tricked him... none other than Gus' old master, Isaac. Tracking Isaac down on Nar Shaddaa after a convo, he agrees to one of three results: free the agent, lock the agent into surferdom, or agent's choice. Get a different achivo for each of the three results, with a different outfit (MiB suit, surfer shorts of another colour, or normal-ish SW toon). Which means a legacy has to get the companion up to influence 50 on three characters to get all the achievements.
  12. SHE BE ALIVE! Someone remember to feed the server hamster the good lettuce
  13. Or, alternatively, where you can tell it not to autolog this time. When one sever is down, sometimes it takes a while before the server select screen to realize it should be giving you an option of the other servers. So, an option on the launcher for when the human knows the auto-launch will hang to tell the launcher just to go to the server select would be handy.
  14. Normally I gave updates and eta as I knew them... but sometimes even the best guess is in the wrong solar system. When I did not, it was because it was either five minutes away, or I did not want to say "f*ck if I know, this line here is just changing between a dot and a star whilst I want for the kernel to finish this command." Incidentally, a LOT of my various script files have "put in good notation sometime" or "you should put comments in here telling yourself what genius coding this was meant to be sometime" and "I know we do not drink, but what is THIS scribble of code supposed to mean?!"
