  1. I'm a returning player who last played the game when it was first released. Was just curious as to which classes are looking good in duels and 1v1 scenarios.
  2. They could balance the classes better

     

    Not that complicated

    Then tell me why WoW is basically a runaround where each class gets it's 15 minutes of fame every patch until they're nerfed in the next one and a new flavor of the month emerges. Balancing can still be worked on, it's not like they had one shot at it. Also, that's not really a solution. How would you suggest making balance changes? You're not really being that constructive.

  3. To be fair, the game revolves around dialog. Your choices mean very little.

    That's true I guess. What I was trying to say, was that having the possibility of being able to chose if you're going to kill this guy or save him is quite exciting. It may not change the entire environment, but its still a nice touch. I just don't see why people buy this game and react in horror when they realize features known from the beginning would be in the game.

  4. You heard it here first :)

    I've started to skip every conversation at lvl 22 and pick my answers at random now, only paying attention to good / light side points.

    Everything you say will be pointless after the conversation ends. Everything! I have yet to see a consequence that adds more than more voiceover and in the rarest cases killing one insignificant dude. The stories of the sidequests have the quality of a c-movie at best.

    And this is where the major part of the budget went? Sorry, but this makes me laugh.

    Will the decisions change your quests? Nope.

    Will the decisions change the world or parts of the map? Nope.

    Will the decisions change following decisions? Nope.

    All they do is adding more pointless, boring textlines.

    Will parts of your gear change based on a soulless number of how good or evil your decisions were? Well yes, I have to give that point to Bioware.

    I'm finished with this boring, pointless abomination called a story.

    I really hope the gameplay gets better, but honestly I don't have much hope.

     

    This is an MMO, let us write or OWN stories! Not follow a pointless path some underpaid or just plain bad writer sucked out of his fingers.

    If I want a story, I'll go watch a movie or read a book. Gameplay is what counts in a game.

    No sympathy for you. If you weren't living under a rock for the past 5 years then maybe you would've realized this game revolves around choices and dialogue. I think the story is quite good, and I'm sorry you cant manage to pay attention to it. If it bothers you so much you can continue playing your conversation version of Russian roulette.

  5. my friend is 3 levels under me and has 150k already at lvl 29... im sitting at 32 with f'n 8k to my name after buying all the new training skills i needed.

     

    something wrong here?

    I have slicing in the mid 300s right now, and I have to agree. I have about 130k at level 32 right now, but on my level 24 jedi knight, I never had more than 20k at a time. I think Bioware went a little overboard on training and repair prices, but that's just me.

  6. 1) A female romanacable compaion who doesn't make me want to throw her out of the air lock.

    2) Some better crowd control

    3) A bonus to healing, make it quicker and better

     

    4) A free ranged attack is also kinda needed as we dont use light sabers past about level 12.

    5) Somethins I could have in my hand other than a light saber but give a stat bonus. It seems stupid I have to turn it on just to throw lightning.

    Speaking of companions, I feel like you get your 3rd companion (Counting the ship robot) really late in the story. On my jedi knight I got my third companion at the end of courscant, but I had to go through belmorra and tatooine to get my third one on my inquisitor.

  7. Simple thread, just post what you would want to see for a future sorcerer update. Keep this within reason though! To start off, I would like to see sorcerers getting the ability to use double bladed sabers. I just prefer them over single bladed sabers on the account of looks.
  8. im sending aric on professions like crazy... i currently have armstech>scavging>investigation

     

    should i wait because its really breaking my bank

     

    also will my armstech tell me i can go to my trainer to get new designs like how my abilities tab tells me i can get x abilities whenever i lvl

     

    it would get annoying to just go back once every so often to my trainer just to see that i have nothing new to train

    you can also try slicing, apparently it gives you a load of cash

  9. Really? It's flat out impossible for you to believe someone couldn't be having fun?

    This, I understand the community being unforgiving to actual trolls, but... Come on guys! Hes not doing anything wrong, he's not bashing the game or calling out Bioware. Hes just asking for help on how to make his game experience better.

     

    On topic: Maybe you can try a different class if you want to, but this game may not be for you. Can you tell us why you're not having fun? Do you feel like the game is too easy, slow, difficult, etc.

  10. Is like a well written novel.

    Critics are raving over Faulken's new hit novel!

     

    "Five stars, an absolute master piece!"

    -The Rolling Stones

     

    "I was instantly captured when Faulken conveyed his emotions beautifully with the word, like"

    -The Washington Post

     

    "A jaw dropping story of sorrow, compassion, and happiness. A must read for the end of 2011!"

    -The New York Times.

  11. People were actually planning on staying after the initial first month? Hahah NO way! After the story is over subs will fall and EA will panic. SP fanboys wont stick around either, theyll be more then ready to move on to the next big thing.

     

    Youll see, this one raid, a few lagg invested bgs wont carry this game for another 6 months before Bioware can finally release some worthwhile content.

    Where is everyone getting these fantastic crystal balls? I must have one! :rolleyes:

  12. Any of you can go check out AoC if you want to see what happens when a GOOD game (as opposed to mediocre like this one) has a botched release. F2P will be coming eventually, although I give it more than 6 months.

     

    Yes there will be bugs on release, but between the buggy play, maps, quests and the horrific queues, this has reached a level of absurdity. The game was not ready for release. Period.

    Don't know what you're talking about with buggy quest and all, so I wont comment on that. But queues will happen for every MMO release, as long as it's popular.

  13. alot of the negative posts are just that, negative. Like others have said, most of these posts are structured around typical threats to unsubscribe and insults to berate the game. People seem to think that all criticism is constructive, this isn't true. Just saying that the combat is bad is not enough, maybe they should try to go into detail about what they think is wrong with combat, and even try to help find a solution. Instead, these posts are usually empty complaints.
  14. With each planet I've come to I'm always 3 or 4 levels above the enemies. I haven't been doing any pvp, just mainly quests and working on my crafting. I know Bioware wanted us to feel heroic but being over leveled is just not as fun or challenging in my opinion

    I'd suggest sticking to story quest then if it bothers you that much. It seems that all my friends who are doing just the story quest stay in range of the zones they're questing in.

  15. yes please, addons meters, dual spec, make it even more like wow, its what the kids want

    See, this makes people arguing against dual specs look silly. Calling anyone who wants a dual spec a kid... Really? I get that you may not like the idea of it, but trying to berate your opposition isn't going to get you anywhere. Addons and dual specs are two completely different topics, and I agree that addons should remain out of game, excluding custum UI addons.

  16. Don't really care about dual specs either way, but they would probably do more harm than good. Players aren't "missing out" on stories with dual specs. It's not like you're going to be able to switch between two classes, so nobody will miss out on the stories of other classes. Personally I'd rather be able to have two specs for tanking and DPS, rather then having to level up the same class again. And then that forces me to gear up two different characters at the same time. Right now I'm having a blast though, so it wont really change my opinion on the game if Bioware adds it in. If you don't want to dual spec you don't have to. Don't worry about what others want to do.
  17. Sincerest apologies, Jordan.

    -Tortall (Swiftsure)

    Im sorry my good tortall, I have to argue with your points. I myself have played two games of counter strike, and I have also obtained one nuke on modern warfare 2, not to mention soloing hogger, I believe I am more experienced then you.

  18. I'll get into my concerns about the old republic shortly, but first, a little about me. I've been gaming my whole life. I've completed the campaign in starcraft 2 twice now, My xbox live profile has over 1000 points, I can beat all my friends at Tekken when i play Eddy. I remember playing bioshock 2 when it came out (so you know i'm old school). Needless to say, I could go on, but put simply, i know what i'm talking about.

     

    Here's whats wrong with old republic.

    1. It's not the old republic. How can it be old when everyones wandering around with lazers? that sounds like a future thing!

    2. Where is the story bioware kept talking about? Whenever i log on and click on quest-givers they keep talking at me. I don't want my questgivers talking to me, i just want their talking to be over so i can go and find the story!

    3. When you jump on enemies, it doesn't seem to register, let alone do any damage. This feature has been a standard of gaming for the last 5 years and bioware were silly not to include it for launch (fingers crossed for first patch!)

    4. pvp is unbalanaced. My Jedi has this sword thing with a light on it and everyone seems to have guns or lightning spells. swords vs guns definitely needs some adjusting

     

    It's a pity really because this game came so close to curing cancer, now it will end up abandoned in 2 days just like other MMO's like System Shock 2 or Spyro the Dragon

    Haha, my friend. I see what you did thar.

    :cool:
