  1. I liked 6.0 it was a great time! πŸ˜‚ There's not a whole lot of upside right now, but I will say I'm a fan of most of the people on the forums these days. Its nice that while the Devs bury head in sand, people articulate well about all the issues/offer solutions. Most MMOs its a dumpster fire, Lost Ark shut off their forums for example. Its a pretty awesome community despite how badly the Devs treat them, they somehow find a way to optimistic even when all the signs point to more problems, they list issues on PTS even knowing its going to be ignored. So the best thing about Swtor right now, in my opinion is all of you guys. You deserve so much better but I respect each of you for maintaining composure in the face of such unprofessionalism & someone destroying something you love. Cheers to all of you who keep trying to make the best of a bad situation, esp one you have no control over. Godspeed out there.
  2. What a horrible waste of resources to redo something that's not going to be an improvement. I've not had this feeling since....πŸ˜‚ Imagine redoing the GTN when you're bleeding out your player base. This IMO is just further proof things will only continue to get worse vs. improve. They've not learned from the 7.0 downgrade at all it would seem. And c'mon they're not gonna listen to any feedback they haven't ever listened to PTS responses. You know this lol.
  3. To each their own though, the variations were precisely what most of the people I ran with liked the most. Gave us something to do/sense of reward for re-running content. Getting an extra bit mastery or power here and there was a nice bonus anytime you saw a good R series mod. Never gonna make everyone happy, but 6.0 to me was a near perfect version of the game. Gear/Actually having meaningful loot was part of the reason why. I respect its not your cup of tea. Some aren't into the loot style systems and hate RNG, I'd of been cool with them making a system to work around that in conjunction. Now we have the worst of both worlds, no loot & a bad gear token system. But what do you expect from Devs who don't treat the player base with basic respect.
  4. I think its more normal to be concerned with any change at this point, its just paying attention to track record. Its one thing to modernize your games but they're so far behind on fixing core aspects of the game, its telling that this is an area of focused resources. Then you add in their low success rate of implementing changes without breaking other things... Its potentially a disaster, but good news is they've only got about 10k or so players left that will notice. Just another sign of awful leadership decisions in a long list of them. Go look at GW2's rest of year roadmap in comparison to this & the livestream. Look at ESO's roadmap compared to it. I mean even Lost Ark is trying various ways to ADDRESS THE PLAYERS CONCERNS. We got dye announcements & lightning changes, its the epitome of smoke & mirrors to cover for poorly done jobs. Its embarrassing the way they conduct themselves imo.
  5. They know the market they haven't alienated yet at least. πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ But it is frustrating from all sides seeing them both trying to appeal to and take advantage of players like that. Rest of us simply have years of experience to know better then to give any benefit of the doubt to this dev team.
  6. If we could go back to how the game was at various points the population would be 3-4x higher. They've been downgrading the game visually & mechanically for 3+ years now. From UI to Reward Systems to outdated graphics being made worse... No one is safe. πŸ˜‚ Also they're "fixing" lightning in an update so be prepared for all manners of broken things having to do with light lol.
  7. Everyone: "Address and fix the problems" Devs: "We're adding Dyes!" I mean.... We're basically fools for even trying to have adult conversation at this point. Why they want to tank their game for cheap cash grabs instead of having sustained revenue & customer satisfaction is beyond me. The game is not in an enjoyable state, but hey least we'll be shiny. Respect for trying to keep pushing logical points of view, but they're just not listening or receiving it at this point.
  8. Just another announcement of them setting the bar as low as possible. While every other MMO under the sun releases content, overhauls, or expansions.... Swtor is getting Dyes and more of the exact same things it doesn't need. Didn't have any expectations but this was just another "Swtor is still going to suffer the 7.X era style dev decisions" announcement to me.
  9. They didn't really say anything which is better then being dishonest lol. With this being the same Dev team that brought us 7.0 it is very much not a hopeful outlook when comparing Broadsword's other titles. I would have loved a harsher more critical response that was filled with brutal honesty about Swtor falling short of players expectations in recent years, but I don't know if I would have believed it amount to anything. This dev team has their work cut out for them to undo about 3 years at least of bad design decisions, destroying the morale of the community, and overall disappointment. Anything short of "we're sorry for 7.0, here's how we're undoing the biggest mistakes" just feels like further burying their heads in the sand vs. progress. So we'll see but not optimistic about it at all.
  10. 120ms has become the new normal vs. 30ms. Its Swtor though so not expecting any fixes or even for it to be addressed. Not exclusive to PvP but does seem extra unstable there, have seen a lot of teleporting/freezing/dc's since the move.
  11. I feel it, I used to enjoy 30ms or lower. Haven't been below 100ms since the move. What can you do though, its basically good enough to do story missions which... Seems to be all they care about.
  12. That would be most of the UI changes, esp the past 3 years. Break what wasn't broken & making things more difficult then they were before, and not add the requested features. Welcome to Swtor, has to be the easiest job to have on the planet bc things don't even have to function correctly or make sense.
  13. I mean I'm entirely ok with Xalek just occasionally killing people in the background of cutscenes. (After some thought: same thing for m1-4x)
  14. You're trying to learn something, that's a good thing. Its never kind to correct people publicly like that unless its asked for or part of the topic of discussion. Sorry people aren't more understanding or patient about it. Still you're getting there and most don't even try to learn a second language. If people aren't respectful of it. Just block em and move on. No sense letting strangers on the internet bother you or put you down for trying to grow.
