Ah, but snap angle platypus to stainless steel bib, keep smiling like happy horse on shiny apple day!

Made sure that all my toons had HK. Soloing those HM flashpoints may be a tad difficult after levelsync.

Your opinion on the sound is simply that, your opinion. We all have different opinions on what sounds good and bad and varying degrees in between. If we didn't, there would just be one weapon sound ingame and everyone would be happy with it. But we do. And there isn't. And we're not. The fact that you failed to check which sound your pistol made before you paid to unlock them account wide was nobody's fault but your own. The sound you so disliked was there from the beginning. It did not change suddenly after you purchased the item. After checking all the attributes of the weapon and then purchasing it account wide, I don't think it was an unreasonable expectation by myself that, unless the weapon had a direct adverse affect on gameplay, there would be no reason for those attributes to change. Although, now that it has been changed, it does appear that you've come here to gloat. Not too sure if that's aimed at me or the guys that originally whined to get the pistol changed? This is true, although if you truly accepted everything that BW did you wouldn't have had a problem with the original sound effect.

And how much more gutted would you have been if you'd actually checked all the attributes of the item, then paid to unlock them account wide because they were just what you wanted, only to have them look like a pineapple on a stick after the next update. Hey, they still fire, right? Just now they look like a pineapple on a stick. Dave likes pineapple on sticks. Oh, and all that armor you saved up for? Sorry, Trevor didn't like the way the shoulders looked so, sorry, now it all looks like the white junk gear you get on the starter planets. Trevor likes junk gear. It reminds Trevor of the orphanage and Trevor can't be arsed to look on the markets for another set of armor, or maybe wait for a new armor to come out, so, basically, **** everyone else, their armor has to change for him.

The slot machines had a direct impact on gameplay, I thought the nerf was overkill but understood that some changes had to happen. No, BW didn't do good this time. The RK Starforged blasters are cosmetic shells, they have no impact on gameplay whatsoever, so why change them? If you disliked the original weapons attributes you simply had to pick another, as you do with all game items, or, if you simply had to have that weapon design, ask that the next version released had a different sound. How many have they released now? Four? Why not one more? That way they wouldn't p*** off those who'd equipped and liked the original design. I can see it now, "The new RK Pedant: for those whose blaster must go Pew Pew"

Yep, that would have been great back in December when I got the weapon and paid to unlock it on all my toons because I LIKED THE SOUND, doesn't help me now though. So why couldn't you guys accept and endure the original sound? This.

Why would I be looking on the forums for complaints about something I was quite happy with? I can't see the logic in changing something that doesn't affect gameplay because of complaints. They must realise that there were players who are quite happy with the original sounds. You know what i do if something that's purely cosmetic doesn't appeal to me? I don't winge about it, I use something else. If someone takes something away that I was more than happy with and, in the case of cartel market items, paid real money for, then I winge about it.

I they had complaints about the old sound then why not make a NEW blaster. Don't destroy something that those of us that already equipped actually like. I think they forget that for each player complaining about looks/sounds ingame, there may be dozens of players quite happy with how things are. You don't normally hear from us for that very reason.

Why have the sounds on the Starforged Blasters been changed? I equipped them on my elder toons because of the unique firing sound they made (definately not because of their looks and enormous size) and, as they now sound like any other blaster, I'm gonna have to pay to strip out the mods etc. I do wish you guys would stop messing with stuff that doesn't affect gameplay.

Agree, just shelled out 3mil for a landing platform I can't place ships on. To say I feel conned is putting it lightly

Just did the exact same thing. So sad

Well put. One other thing, would js/pad support encourage or deter new players from trying the game? As I'm not a mind reader, I can't say but I'd guess that, if you were to come to the game fresh, a full range of options for control device wouldn't bother you but, if your prefered device wasn't covered, a limited list of options might be a turn off.

Wow, aggressive much? You have the traits of the common forum bully, anyone disagrees with you and bam, abuse. You still believe I told you not to post on the forums, and chide me for such, and then tell me that my opinion ON AN OPEN FORUM is worthless and to keep it to myself. You want a private conversation about an open discussion, take it to PMs. I'm done with you, to continue this would be to empower you, not to mention annoy the other posters that have a serious topic to discuss. Congratulations, you are the chess-playing chicken.

First, please don't put words in my mouth. How, by SUGGESTING you think before you post AGAIN, am I TELLING you not to post in the forums? Second, I would argue that your initial post (that I replied to) wasn't a statment of observable facts, it was an interpretation of opinion. Third, cute? (sorry, does that need the two eroteme for effect?) Cute is sweet babies and manga chicks, I'm too old and far too ugly for either.

[quote name='MajikMyst']Wow really?? I bet you think you are pretty cute with that don't ya?? Well.. Here is to thinking.. Perhaps next time you will do that before you write a post.. :rolleyes: To clarify for you.. I was not speaking for other people.. I was disputing his comment with some observable facts.. There is a huge difference.. :D[/QUOTE] Erm... by stating that "people aren't that upset" you are, in all actuality, speaking for other people. This is an "observable fact". If you don't understand this straight away, I suggest you go away and have a good think before you post again.

Yes.

Speak for yourself, you say? How about you lead by example

Easily and ergonomically. Sticks and pads have evolved slightly since the old Atari one-stick-one-fire-button setup

I did. Didn't help. I simply don't find keyboard controls to be a natural setup for free flight. As I said, it's a shame because apart from that it's quite good.

Damn, was really looking forward to this. Logged in today with a few old guildies who, like me, hadn't been on in weeks/months and bam, no pad/stick support and controls that suck. Played a few rounds, and I must admit I like the space combat, but I can't get round the terrible keyboard setup. Sad. /puts-SWTOR-back-in-the-unused-icons-folder
