I will try them to see if they are hard as "1.2 LI" if they are. its a good way to test and teach people for hm raids but pugs tend to have little patience of learning their class. They are really hammering on about refocusing on group content next year, well they have till January to tell me what their plans are because my sub runs out in march.

I would like to see something they did with WOW with WOD, going back in time alteering the mandorian wars. It would be awesome to visit that era officially.

You have a point there. Personally I run ops for the challenge, one thing that gets me interested that new ops could have a third difficulty again but we have to wait and see.

another potential problem when/if they release new ops, everyone will have the best gear for the most part. The dps check will be non existant, they need to either put gear in expert/master ops or make the mechanics really challenging.

one way they can do it too, is have the sm ops not drop anything and then have expert and master ops have drop the best gear.

Not only that...But I fear any new group content they add will be less important...unless they make the new group content really hard, why should we repeat it? On the plus side, we could be seeing a new diffcullity in new ops (master)

to be fair KOTET launches dec 2 for everyone and according to a rumor, theres going to be just nine chapters, we have to wait at least one month after it launches to see whats going on.

Also, notice they didn't say anything about rescailing the old ops either...I think we need to wait for the cantina before jumping the gun.

to be honest every MMO company seems disconnected with their player base even blizzard. the mmo seems to be doing good right now is FFXIV thats because they fell hard and made a great comeback, with listening to their players more. I feel that every MMO company should do a poll halfway through the current expansion and give players like 10 options of what they would like to see in the next expansion then the dev team should focus on the top three winners for their next expansion. we will get group content at some point, after all LOTRO is getting a new raid this summer.

Does it seem very strange that that the force awakens and the chapter on the emperor are coming out on the same day?

fair enough man, I just hope this thread will raise enough awareness for them to mention it in the April Livestream.

since it seems they only mention hot topics in their livestream, I would like to see this thread take off by posing a simple question...Where's The New Operations? Now I want to ask the community three questions. 1. Whats your favorite memories/moments from operations? 2. Why do you personally feel that group content is important? 3. What would you like to see in the future? as for me, 1. I wasn't much of a hardcore raider when the game launched in 2011, in fact this is my first MMO ever. I did casual raid though. The feeling of that hardcore progression came with 2.4 with the release of the dread ops. I wanted to be one of the best, and I have gone through several guilds to reach that goal. I learned how to be a better player. My favorite moment would have to be where I personally beat corrupter zero HM for the first time before 3.0, I tried for six months with several failed groups to get him down. Finally I got him down two days before 3.0 and the feeling was great. 2. I feel that group content is important because it promotes comrade and friendship between some players. That feeling you get when you down a boss after weeks of trying. The funny and wacky conversations you have during raid time. The need of improving yourself as a player and a sense of accomplishment by doing that. 3. I would like to see something added for raids every six months and maybe something similar like NIM added. So BW I would like to know, where's the new ops? This is not a bashing on BW thread or anyone else. Please discuss the topics related above.

yeah same thing, it took me 12 hours just for PTS and 30-45 mins for the live game.

How do you exactly do it without uninstalling? thanks guys.

Umm...can you explain what it means exactly....will it help ques?

Honestly guys, If this game is close to dying, I can see Disney dumping alot of money to save it and make BW release a expansion that has ops, pvp, gsf and story. Maybe that's why the dev team seems too laxed at this point, because they know Disney will bail them out if they get into serious trouble. that is IF there's not a new a MMO in the works anytime soon. Out of curiosity do they get funding from Disney now?

That's true. but we did get details about the new warzone being king of the hill and on oddeson. and what the eternal championship exactly is. Granted, its not kind of information that people might want, buts it's still information.

hmm...new new information huh? What do you call the new warzone and eternal championship?

Honestly I think this movie serves as a set up to 8. They are just world and character building in this one. I think we get the meat of the story in 8. It does feel like A new hope but it did its job setting up the characters. And I think some of the things will be explained in future books in the new canon which sucks for non die hard star wars fans.

Let me ask you a question, how would you handle a episode 7? Would you bring elements in the EU?

by the way. I enjoyed your latest episode and i agree on alot what you were saying about the people we play with. I met some great people here and its one of the reasons why I continue to stay. We need more new content to make memories with. I guess I have until March to ultimately decide to stay or to go. I hope you stay for a little a while longer to how things progress but I understand if you don't. This was my first MMO and its hard to just let it go lol

While I'm happy that PVP is getting something new. it shows you haven't completely abandoned the group aspect. But I would still like to know if a new operation is being worked on or at least being planned? please give us something. Thanks Eric

6800 average? I hope that's in 224 BIS.

I like the story content, its great actually but we really need new group content. So can we at least get a timeline of new ops/wzs? I dont want to leave.

is this a bad thing tho? If anything it means there will be new ops early next year that will require 224 as SM, IF not, then I don't understand BW's thinking.
