TonyTricicolo Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 (edited) In light of unfortunate news regarding primary style being locked for many players, I would like to formally request Bioware consider adding a third combat style to help alleviate the problem. This action would go a long way to improve and foster a better relationship with the player base. Thank you for your time and consideration. Yours truly, Tony Nova from Star Forge Edited December 4, 2021 by TonyTricicolo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrixxieTriss Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 +1 make this happen BioWare, it’s the least you can do. With this announcement saying they now can’t do X,Y,Z, they should open up a 3rd combat style as compensation. We already suspect they had/have plans to offer it as a CM paid item later next year. If that’s the case, then it should be free to subscribers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadDutchman Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 It's almost a certainty that a 3rd combat style or a combat style change will happen, simply because they could sell this on the CM for good CC Obviously they bit off a bit more than they could chew technically with the change, hence the change to be restricted at launch. I can't imagine they'll abandon the idea altogether though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Savej Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 Add flexibility. Let us change our style choices occasionally. Do you want to compete with modern games like FFXIV or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starschwar Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 This would be a good way to mitigate the lack of a do-over for an existing character's original advanced class. Everyone can get the two they envisioned when the combat style system was first announced. I don't see a downside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strathkin Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 (edited) I'm technically glad that your Character's at least keep their original Combat Style. While new Character's at Launch may choose something entirely different, I'd still want to have the CORE of the Class Maintained. Some won't care however... Still remember Commando, has a passive for Blaster Rifle as Trooper, and Cannon as well currently. But perhaps that will go away with 7.0 in the default Combat Style? Still Tech users have far more choice, Cannon, Blaster Rifle, Sniper Rifle, Pistol, Dual Pistol. I'd likely suspect a 3rd Combat Style likely be unlockable with COINs, perhaps in the future or down the road. That would make sense for those who want it.

Why do you consider FFXIV to be "modern"? It first released in 2013, so it's already more than eight years old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike_carton Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 (edited) Absolutely. The entire Combat Styles thing is a "Bait and Switch" for existing characters the way things stand. Giving 3 slots to existing characters is the right and proper way to make this good. Edited December 5, 2021 by mike_carton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IramUnleashed Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 Agreed. +1 to this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordpitt Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 This. Would be a nice gesture from Bioware. I leveled a trooper to 75 and completed all the stories to make him ready to roll Sniper/Operative. Now I will only be able to choose one of both. A third slot would make my plans possible again.
