  1. There will not be a new planet and there is no increase to the level cap with this expansion. We really wanted to focus this expansion around space off of rails where you get to fight your friends (and enemies!) :)

     

    To that point, there will not be any Space based PvE content with the Digital Expansion. It is only going to be PvP.

    I'm sorry but as a subscriber and being here since early access I do feel it is BS that this is only PVP when one of my biggest gripes about this game are the stupid rails that I fly with in PVE. So what's in this expansion for me??

  2. Really, this is what you choose to complain about not having access to an expansion before it is released because you didn't pre-order. Fact the expansion releases on the 14th till then the only people that will have access to the things from the expansion will be who?? the people that pre-ordered that's who and that's how it works. Never have I been in a MMO that I expected to have access to an expansion or any of it's components if I did not order it and only on the day It released for me to have access did I think I would see them. You want to complain about something complain about a release then a patch the next day and servers down the next. Well the patch I guess I did see comin, lol.

     

    My 13yr old didn't know that I pre-ordered it for him and didn't expect to see any of it till the 18th on his birthday.

    Pretty sad the I want it now generation is.

  3. Point is each person has there own play style, I'm not opposed to grouping if I know the people but blind groups forget it. When you force a player to do something they are not inclined to do you piss them off when you piss them off they drop there sub. Bad business to force your player base to play the way you want them to and not allow them to play how they wish.
  4. Are you serious, HK is in a blasted Flashpoint? I personally hate flashpoints, Why the F can't Bioware release content that isn't flashpoint, OP or warzone related. If they would spend as much time on the ingame stuff like worlds and quests and not flash point this and op this, this game would be huge by now and still growing. YAY for the mentality that after you hit 50 all you have left is Raids and PVP lets hear it for WOW remakes.
  5. I don't hate the game so much as I am not impressed with the stories. Yea the voice acting was cool the first time I heard the planet side story but to create another character then another and go through the same quests 4 times, yuck. Lets not forget they closed a perfectly good game with a very large even though they chopped it up a bit sand box for this a game with nothing but a guided tour to the Star Wars Universe. I really don't care for PVP and don't have the time to search for ops and flashpoints. Personally for all the areas they have created for the prior they could have added a couple new planets by now for me to explore. I don't hate the game I just feel they tried to get to many WOW players by trying to create a SW WOW named TOR and I hate WOWs game play.
  6. Personally and I do mean personally I would like to say that Ops and Flashpoints take to long to complete/find a group but then again looking back I'm not a loyal customer after the issues they had back with I believe 1.2 or was it 1.1. Enough of the Ops and Flashpoints and super gear from these can't the average 2-4 hour a week player get anything truly new like a planet or local quests other than the same old daily crap? Wonder why this game is failing because people where looking for something special I for one since it was closed in part to the release of this game am looking for a SWG replacement Pre-CU preferred and this is no where close. BioWare you are great at RPG for instance ME, DA and KOTOR those 3 game series rocked but you really need to in my opinion again to re-evaluate your MMO strategies. That's all and to all of you that wish Flame on cause honestly this is my opinion I just needed to state it.

     

    In short you could have done more with 1.4 other than Flashpoint, Operation and Nerfs out the arse.

  7. I left 2 of my characters behind, showing it is not required however one thing I do think is BS is that it checked my character to make sure I dint' have mail and they where ok to xfer it did not check the destination server to make sure my name was not taken, a character name I have used in MMOs for 10+ years and I would not have moved that character had I known there is my only complaint.
  8. instead of emergency merges/xfers they want you to PAY for Server Xfers. They want YOU to fix their game that YOU PAY THEM TO PLAY! It's a crying shame. KoTOR III would have been better.

     

    I believe I read some where that Server transfers would be free in the beginning however I do agree that KOTOR 3 would have been better.

  9. That's a good bit of the endgame. You might wanna reconsider that, if possible :)

     

    People have different opinions about things i understand that but if a MMO is a game that you play for year and hopefully years how can you have end game?? My first MMO even though I had trained up all my skills I still found things to do it wasn't end game raids, PVP or operations it was running around Dathomir killing Night Sisters and Singing Mountain Clans, sitting around a camp fire getting a buff and having fun. Played WOW for a very short time and why because they where to end game drivin. I want to feel like a MMO is a second life and at 41 I'm no where near my end game content or at least I hope, lol.

  10. I was hoping for instead of new space missions a fix for space so I can fly my ship instead of flying through space on a set of rails. Space missions remind me of a question that was asked long ago in another galaxy far far away "so you just sat there and it was fun". Space can be fun I'm sure even here if it had of been done correctly from the beginning it's not a Mini Game this is STAR WARS for Christ sake.
  11. As for the OPs June comment, I told a friend of mine that beta tested with me that unless they really improve something, like space, customization and add more open world explore areas (not saying PVP because I don't pvp) that I could see TOR F2P by next April with Paid Expansions and Micro Transactions. He now has all but stopped playing and finally agrees with me.

     

    Many will leave if something major isn't' done by June and even more will leave after that, what you will have left eventually will be those that held onto SWG till the very end like myself.

  12. Personally, I like the space combat as it is. It is a mini game. They only thing I would change is make all the space missions level with the mods added to ship, that way when you have level 5 mods, not every mission is grey.

     

    So what if it is on rails, there is alot of cool rail games. I don't think the space missions were EVER advertised as anything other then what it is. An god, don't make any changes that resemble ANYTHING of SWG, cause that game really did well..../sarcasm off.

     

    Pre-CU it did do very well, Server lag was caused by to many players not poor coding. Cu pops dropped but it was still very busy, it wasn't till LA and Smedley jumped in and said they wanted a WOW that it failed and there was no coming back from NGE (Negative Game Enhancements). As for rail combat yes there are several games with it and 2 of those are Star Wars games I believe that Bio had something to do with called Rebel Assault 1 and 2 which I recall where flops. Fine I'll go on a limb here and do the pissy thing and say if you don' t like it don't play it so they should leave it as is but they will loose many players if they don't change it which looking at server pops now is something this game can't do. I was there when SWG players griped there was nothing but ground combat and after about a year they added space and the rush for mining, PVE and PVP space missions began.

     

    Most of the current missions if it was off the rails could be done in no time at all and in most cases my ship wouldn't even take any damage. You do space because you like it, I don't because I feel it sux. to each his own but I'm seeing a trend that says you are a minority, sorry. Perhaps Bioware should start posting votes in game say on the stations or major planets to ask the community what they want and base future releases on those results.

  13. Im a little confused,,, Why cant a hvy armor wearer use the light (Event) armor??[/quote

     

    You can but even if the armor can be modded the light armor still takes a hit on the armor rating. My BH has a Heavy modded chest plate and since I was about 6 lvl's above the mods I was fighting I put on a mod-able bikini top and it was a 50+ armor hit with the same mods I had on my chest plate. Hope that explains the issue

  14. guess what

     

    the rakghoul plague is content.

     

    I'm guessing this is your first MMORPG? this isn't a single player game, if you don't like dynamic world events and just want to stay in your own little bubble stay away from all populated areas

     

    You're given the option to not die via the vaccine, you're also given the option to make a load of cash if you don't want the unique vendor items.

     

    This is why we can't have nice things and why games don't evolve, you just want the vanilla base game by the sounds of it

     

    True it is content, it is an event however and not part of the core content and thus I can choose to or not to take part in it. As for the vaccine, if I want to spend my credits I will on something I want in game not something that has been forced on me. This is not my first MMO the list is rather long but for starters, SWG, STO, Lotro, DDO, CO, COH, COV, GW, AOC, Tabula Rasa and a few others, not once have I been forced into playing or doing something outside of what I wanted. This has done so with the fleet spawn campers. As for a Vanilla game no this has a lot of potential however I see them not getting very far if they try forcing things on people. It's like this I only pvp with 1 of my 8 characters I have tried with the others and sucked, if a quest forced me to go into a pvp zone I would not want to do it unless it was with my 1 character that I pvp with. It is all about choices and my choice to participate or not was taken away from me when I died do to a plague quest I did not want to participate in.

     

    Add all the Content you want BioWare just remember forcing people to play something they do not want just ends in disaster.

  15. I don't understand the whiners

     

    my level 15 has 300k, 2k is nothing.

     

    get infected and die, gives you 5 dna samples, they can be sold for 50k.

     

    so the first time the whiners got "griefed" why didn't you sell the samples and buy 25 vaccines?

     

    Why should we have to, if I don't want to do something in a game then I shouldn't' be forced into it which is what is happening, I don't' even have 300k on my lvl 37 but I don't play the auction game which is what I'm guessing you do. I pay to play the content I want to not what others want me to.

  17. They don't need to extend this one, they need to pick another planet, have it get infected and make it so everyone can partake for starters 10-50, make it last longer, keep it off the stations and say something on the launcher window this time instead the same message I've sen since the 12th about people with active subs get a Taun Taun that you can't ride or fight with, lol. Talk about Bio dropping the Ball a bit, there PR staff need a good talkin to from where I'm sitting.
  18. I'm surprised and sorry you died on the quest. You must have rotten luck to get infected the moment you logged on. My suggestion is not log off at the Quick Travel point. I'm not familiar with Black Talon... does that take place on the station? (or is that an Imp Flashpoint?) The one thing I forgot to add in my post and came back to say was that log off/log on or traveling to a new planet seems to stop the infection. Twice I've traveled to a planet after getting infected and never advanced to Stage 2 after hours of play. Had to use a vaccine (and then cancel it) in order to continue the infection part of the event. Also, when I logged off on the station while infected and then came back a few minutes later I was also bugged and never went to Stage 2.

     

    It was in a way forced, I used the fleet pass and when I got on the station thx to all the campers I lagged out so bad I crashed, after logging back in I got out of the area as fast as I could be it wasn't fast enough. I lag a little on the station from time to time but never had a crash till everyone starting camping the fleet spawn.

  19. People on Fleet aren't "griefing". It's the fastet way to not only complete the one-time "infect 10 people" mission, but also the fast way to collect DNA samples to buy the special color crystals. I don't understand all the whining, especially since it's so easy to avoid getting infected. See someone with green tendrils around their body? Run away.

     

    Having said that, I'm enjoying this event, but will sadly not be able to complete it. One week is not long enough, since you can't do all the dailies in one day. You are required to do them over a period of 5 days, which is impossible for a casual gamer or someone with a job who can't play every night. A second week to this would be very nice.

     

    Try my lvl 11 that spawned on the station to run Black Talon, got infected and dies in the middle of the quest. the crystals are 31 and up and I'm not high enough lvl to partake in the rest of the quests, and oh wait not enough creds for the stinking vaccine so these people need to go elsewhere so the rest of us can play. To your second point, I have a job, I play when I can and since there is no way i have the time to even think about getting the crystal with my higher lvl characters I am not partaking in it and don't wish to be forced into it by some idiot that can only stand at a spawn point infecting other players for a laugh.

     

    Don't get me wrong, the quest looks good from what I have heard and I did try 2 dailies with my lvl 37 what I found was to little reward for the time spent in quest. Prices from vendor to high compared to rewards in quests and the quest time should be a month so everyone can have time to play it not a week so only there LOYAL customer base can partake.
