Launched the game earlier today (2016/11/05) and the Launcher performed a quick patch, and when it reached 100% Install, did not allow the game to be launched. I have the orange bar at the bottom indicating a successful install was completed, and the Play button does not activate. Everything else on the UI is active, just not the play button. Ironically, I played the game on the desktop in question the previous day. Before you ask, it is a Streaming launcher, and I have tried the trick with deleting the bitraider folder to no avail.

Coming into this "argument" late, since I've been playing events on ST:O for the last 10 days... Translation: "We don't want Sorcerers or Sages soloing PvE anymore..." I don't know about anyone else, but having a 25% pin rate for the victims of my force quakes and force storms is about the only thing that keeps my characters alive in some situations. So much for teaming up being OPTIONAL. In my case, I don't specialise (I hate the new skill "system"), I JOAT. So this means instead of playing my character the way I want to, I now have to play it the same way everyone else does...or else. I play to have fun, not run rotations for ideal damage output. If they keep this up, 'bot programs are going to become more popular than they, unfortunately, already are.

Sarcastic Reply: So Quit the game. Realistic Reply: The game is SET-UP to be playable Solo. You prefer to socialise when playing, others prefer to play. In short, you play your way, and you don't like people that don't. ..TOUGH. The game doesn't REQURE team-ups, which is why 90%+ of the missions PER PLANET are not Heroic. Some people play PvE until 10th level and then go pure PvP. (Personally can't stand 'em, 'cause they whine more than a lonely puppy at 2am.) Me, and many others, play PvE and don't PvP. Then there are the PvP players I actually respect...they play the game AND PvP. (Several friends go this route.) Then there are the "The only content worth playing is End Game content" . (Can't stand these idiots who think 75% of the game is there ONLY to get them the XP to play the "real game.") Caught on yet? You play your way, let me and everyone else play the way WE WANT. As for Random Invites? Welcome to the /ignore list. Protocol: Whisper, accept, invite. Oh, in case you didn't catch it...I approve 100% of the OP's spleen vent.

1) I'm not crying... I'm ANNOYED. 2) I've never sat a queue yet on Darth Scion, luckily have yet to sit one on Dorga's Pleasure Barge, and never seen one on Telos. 3) Depending on when I log on, I'm seeing FULL severs...research is easy...just go to the server page. Heck, when I logged out of Droga's on Saturday the 7th (July), it was FULL! And to top it off, Bioware(?) has locked all the "transfer from" servers that I can tell Like I originially said, if I wanted a HEAVY server I would have rolled on one in the first place...and dealt with the lag issues. I went to medium/light servers to AVOID having to twiddle my thumbs waiting for different sections of fleet to load. It's bad enough I'm using Nar Shadda for my hub, but the lag is getting worse there too!

So you're telling those of us having single faction server accounts can't get him... Thanks.

Having finally received the prompt on both servers I frequent, I checked things out...and am NOT pleased. If I wanted a VERY HEAVY server, I would have rolled on one in the first place. A larger population is fine only under two situations...1) The community makes it worth it, and as of right now, I know nothing about Droga's Pleasure Barge(?), nor Jedi Covenant, so I'm going to have to visit those forums. 2) There is no queue to log-in. THIS is why most people that chose a light to medium server chose one in the first place.

And a site unrelated to BW and EA has exactly what to do with it?

Telos Reconstruction Project and / or Darth Scion... Oh, wait... Nevermind

No, laughable is the presumption that a LINE SOLDIER has access to the best of the best. The average soldier has essentially second rate equipment, because the Government can buy five times as much for the same amount. Any Goverment who's military relies on the newest and shiniest toys is a Government who's military doesn't have a clue as to how to use the equipment they have, because by the time they know HOW to use it, it's replaced with something newer and more expensive! Think about WWII... Specifically the Commonwealth forces. They were issued STEN guns...cheap garbage that after 4-5 clips had to be tossed-out. Why? Because they were cheap like Borcht, bought in mass quantities, and easily replaced.

100% agree... Boba Fett survived (albeit at the integrity of most of his Mandolorian armour) a Thermal Detonator blast at essentially contact range to escape the Sarlaac. Despite what we see in the Sacking of Aldaraan vid, a trooper holding a Thermal Detonator in his hand might survive, but he'd be minus the hand, and most/all of his arm. The average Hunter is little more than a street tough who got lucky a couple of times... The elite are the functional equivalent of the elite of the elite of the Military skill and survivability wise...since a fair number of them are just that... Retired/Cashiered Military elites. (If you've played Mass Effect, think Kai Leng. He was an N6 trained soldier that was cashiered over a bar fight.)

? Three Disturbances to get the max stacked force regen is counter productive?

And? Do I have an issue with it? Depends on how it's handled. As for "X" crafting skill being "useless"...I'm pretty sure that most servers pops are still not mostly 50's, so that means the profit is made selling items at critical levels for people coming to that level, and for outfitting companions. NOT selling to 50's. Make a whack of the level 20(?) lightsabers, crit crafted or not...people will THANK you for it! (Even if the thanks is an anonymous e-mail with money attached.) An arteficer on Telos that I know makes 100 creds on 20-40 stuff for every cred he makes on 50 stuff. He's (almost) literally seen mid level crystals vanish from his sale inventory before he finishes his item posting!

A repair bill that can generally countered in full by the MONEY you receive for participating. However, for the OP...if you were NOT part of the Group (i.e.: the boss' health bar was grey), *why* are you expecting a reward other than a "Thank You" from the group?

Re: Rested XP... Rested XP is WONDERFUL!!! Please note, Quest rewards (and Holocron rewards) is ALSO doubled...and unlike Combat XP, does NOT diminish the amount of Rested XP. I also levelled to 50 before reaching Corellia...heck, I hit 50 somewhere on Hoth if I recall correctly...and as with you, I played zero PvP.

Not really...since my Synthweaver has critted multiple times on both Archaeology and Underworld Trading since 1.2 dropped. No schema. In fact, since almost daily play since pre-Christmas, I've found somewhere around 10-15? schema, and fewer than 3 of those were for synthweaving. My Arteficer (different server) has YET to see a schema from either Diplomacy or Treasure Hunting. (Yes, I'm at the mercy of the GTN for my mats...)
