I've never liked the idea of perma-stealth classes in any game, and I'm glad to see more games moving away from it. When I was leveling my assassin I never even had the ability on my bars. And I never had a situation where I really felt like I needed it. Why sneak past mobs when all it does is cost me XP/loot?

The worst Jedi Mission; Lovers and Secrets
Koolthulu replied to RocketeerRaccoon's topic in General Discussion
Look at how crazy "love" can make people in the real world. Then imagine those people with super powers. Yeah, the Jedi have it right. -
PvP in the Gree Event... Thanks Bioware!
Koolthulu replied to Ocho-Quatro's topic in General Discussion
My Gree Rep is still 0. I'm glad the PvPers are having fun. But I rolled on a PvE server for a reason. -
How do people not get how moddable gear works when there is a quest that explains it? It's not even one that you can miss like the AC quests.

I don't even think about augments until I hit 55. And then I only do blues. The difference in price for the purples is crazy compared to the very minor stat difference.

What would you think of an Open Space Galaxy?
Koolthulu replied to Julius_Caesar's topic in General Discussion
This isn't Star Trek. Nothing happens in hyperspace, so why make it take any time? -
Traditional Jedi and Sith Robes are here!
Koolthulu replied to DarthDymond's topic in General Discussion
Blame Lucas for that bit of brilliance. I always imagined the Jedi wearing something more like Luke's RotJ outfit to a fight, instead of the bathrobes. -
"Quick you must stop the evil bad guy from destroying the planet! But first could you go pick up my dry cleaning and get some beers from the store?" Yeah, the side quests really do kill the story flow. Personally, if someone does make another SW RPG, I hope it is set way in the future. Set it a couple hundred years past the Legacy comics or something.

Minor XP boost granting 20% XP gain instead of 25%
Koolthulu replied to jasoneth's topic in Bug Reports
So the XP Boost doesn't stack with the Sub boost? Sure sounds like a bug to me. -
So everything passed level 50 is required paid content.
Koolthulu replied to PunisherAS's topic in General Discussion
Yeah let's compare a $50+ expansion to a $10 one. -
Then don't buy from the market. How does someone spending real money to get something make your game less fun? And guess what, your definition of fun may not be the same as someone else. So just stop worrying about what other people are doing and keep playing the game your way. And people please stop with the "Everyone is going to unsub" thing. First off, they aren't. And second, if BW was making that much off subs, they never would have went F2P in the first place. Subs are a drop in the bucket to what the market is making. Oh and can we please stop using the words "achievement" and "accomplishment" when talking about video games?

One thing I really hate about the LS/DS choices, is that it is always a DS choice to make someone actually do their job. How is it a LS choice to let soldiers desert and leave their base undermanned so that their fellow soldiers have to work harder and are more vulnerable to attack? Or, "Oh no, don't send the elite highly decorated commando unit into the base, I'll go alone instead. You guys just stay here and play cards or something." Or, "Oh I know I'm supposed to be training you guys to defend yourselves, your families and your homes, but one of you may get a splinter during this fight. So you guys just sit here and I'll go alone." I know the player is supposed to be the "HERO" but some of the quests get a bit ridiculous. When I play a Republic character I really start to feel like they deserve to lose. Anyway, I stopped worrying about LS/DS after my first character. When I make a new character I come up with a basic idea of how they are going to act and that is what determines the choices I make.

Call me greedy...entitled.. all you want..
Koolthulu replied to Ayelinna's topic in General Discussion
We grasp that concept. BW couldn't do any single thing that would have pleased everyone. This was probably the best compromise. When I make a new character the first thing I do is go to the mailbox and delete all the pets, fireworks and other items I have no use for. I appreciate BW giving them to me, but I have absolutely no use for them. For me at least, the coins can go toward something I will actually get some use out of. -

Koolthulu replied to Ayelinna's topic in General Discussion
I'd rather have the coins than a pet I never use. -
I've always been amazed that none of the F2P games I've played offered this. Does anyone know of one that does? Considering that there has always been a market for paid power leveling services, I would think companies would want that money for themselves. I'm the opposite though, I love leveling more than playing the same couple of instances over and over and over at cap. I'd pay for slower leveling.

Your CPU is fine. As others have said it is about the best gaming CPU for the money. Play around with your driver settings. I was getting horrible fps with the Nvidia default settings. Here is a good place to start: http://www.mmo-champion.com/threads/1290218-Nvidia-Guide-Getting-Smoothest-Gameplay-The-Laymans-Guide I'm running with these settings plus 4x AA (set in drivers, not in game) and I get a pretty consistent 60fps (except on fleet with a lot of other players around).

Posting in a thread about playing video games being an "accomplishment". Man I wish I had thought of this stuff when my mom would get mad at me for spending so much time and money playing Pac-Man at the arcade.

Level a new character (or at the very least get your other characters to 55). Just do the class story and enough planet quests to keep you at the required level. Can easily be done in about a month of light playing and should give you well over 10 legacy levels.

petition for the ewok to be buyable via CC
Koolthulu replied to astrobearx's topic in Suggestion Box
1 million per character. . Looks like I'll pass on this companion like I had to pass on HK. Wish I was rolling in as many credits as BW seems to think I should be. -
Tharan Cedrax at your service! - Summon dialogue
Koolthulu replied to CommanderKeeva's topic in General Discussion
Yeah this is really annoying with someone like Khem who takes 10 seconds to say "Hello". -
When I first started playing, I got the dancer outfit for Kira because it was the easiest and cheapest orange gear I could get for her. I spent the rest of my leveling wishing BW had implemented a real wardrobe system.

Remember that Free Name Change? I do... heh.
Koolthulu replied to JaceMatai's topic in General Discussion
They aren't doing it for each character though. They are only giving out one rename per account. Which wouldn't be a big deal if you could only have characters on one server. Just send a Bind on Legacy rename to one character and then you could mail it to whichever one you wanted to rename. But what about people with characters across multiple servers? Personally, I think just giving each sub 1K CC is the best way to go right now. And why is everyone getting so worked up about it anyway? It's a safe bet that the first 10 names you want are taken. If they had done a name purge on older inactive characters, then it might be something to get excited about. -
RotHC anyone else bored with it? (serious question)
Koolthulu replied to Suromir's topic in General Discussion
I have ran one character from each side through the story and to me it was one of the better planet stories on either side. But the lack of class story and the huge amount of enemies grouped close together really make me not want to go through it again on my other characters. Still for the price and all the other features it adds, I'm satisfied with the expansion.
