Every server merge or change, has systematically caused my preferred name to get taken, by an obvious griefer. To the jerk who keeps taking it ....GET A LIFE. To TOR, please stop letting people take a name, in server merge, when someone ALREADY has the name.

this is what you supposedly have to do: I. Launcher Cannot Patch Itself In order to resolve this issue, we ask that you follow the below steps exactly. If they are not followed in this order, the file may not execute correctly Open your task manager (Ctrl+Shift+Esc) and ensure all SWTOR and Launcher processes have been shut down. Go to http://cdn-patch.swtor.com/patch/Lau...lity1_74_7.exe. A window will open asking if you would like to save or run the file. Please select save. When the file has been downloaded, please copy the file to your install directory, the file is located by default in: For 32 bit Operating Systems - C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\BioWare\Star Wars - The Old Republic\ For 64 bit Operating Systems - C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\BioWare\Star Wars - The Old Republic\ When the file is in your install directory, double-click on it, and select “Run” and then “Extract” when prompted. When asked if you want to “replace” files, say “yes too all.” Once the installation is complete, please try launching the game again. Note: This is simply a self-extracting archive that installs the latest versions of all the Launcher components to eliminate the need for the Launcher to patch itself. We’ve seen a number of users who consistently are unable to patch the Launcher successfully and this is a workaround for that issue specifically. REALLY???!!! (SARCASM intended) When you do an update, your CUSTOMERS shouldn't have to do stuff like this

sub cancelled 6 hours of every trick i know of to get game to launch. NEXT TIME>>>>TEST YOUR UPDATE>>>>BIOWARE/EA

After uninstalling my game, and downloading full game, and then trying to log in, i still can't. it just sits there, then login screen goes away, then nothing. what was wrong with the previous login? streaming login? really?!!! i got the multiple instances login error, and nothing fixed it, so i tried this uninstall, and re-install and its nothing.

This happened to me, last year, and i never did figure out what was the cause. *** is it trying to launch multiple instances? I can't get in long enough to see what the error is, or to even get on the game. The FAQ's are useless, as its the launcher, that does it. I have tried the diagnostic, and repair, and nothing fixes it. I have tried everything, except, uninstalling. I tried that last year, and it didn't help. i tried to log on the next day, and it let me login as if nothing was wrong, so, ***, is this? Will i log in tomorrow just fine, and why is this doing it. I've had just about enough, of these little bugs. I have made no changes, since yesterday, so why is this happening? Still on the phone waiting for service

We need a bit more options for Guilds. The XP gain, was an excellent idea to build guilds, but we need options that keep people in guilds, and bonuses for being in larger guilds. 1) Decreased CD's(cooldowns) on quicktravels, according to every 100 members. For example: tier 1 (1-100 members) 10 percent decrease tier 2 (101-200 members) 30 percent decrease tier 3 (201-300 members) 50 percent decrease tier 4 (300-400 members) 70 percent decrease tier 5 (401-500 members) 90 percent decrease 2) Instanced area with a Quicktravel for Guildmembers, with a fast CD. Make this area a generic area, like any group quest,but have GM be able to choose from any of the planets or a new space on fleet, as location for guild. This new space could be a lower deck below where the guildbank is, or in center where there already is an elevator, just add a floor for guilds, or the elevator levels in fleet cantina. If no instanced area, then at least a Bind point, that a GM can set, for guild, anywhere. 3) We need Guild Email from GM. This will allow GM's to effectively communicate in game to his guild's membership. Charge 10k for mailing, to keep guild emails to a minimum. 4) Reduced costs for repairs / vendor purchases based on the tiered system,listed above. This would be another reason to belong to a large guild, thus reducing the number of Guilds and guild names in use, thus helping any data server lag issues. 5) Guild Vendor tab on any Vendor, that can access Guild bank. Reducing the amount of time spent going to the fleet,is always good, reduces area population issues, and would make it very useful, to deposit unwanted items, that might help other guildies. 6) GM Remote Guildbank with full management options Us, GM's, are busy, and running to the guildbank, on the fleet, all the time is annoying. Thanks for your time.

smuggler has same skills. all classes has same on each side.

We are now recruiting Experienced Operations leaders and PvP Players. We still are recruiting, and have a member base over 400. We have a republic guild for our republic alts.

We have a 25 Slot Mumble Server, and currently have at any given time, 10 to 25 players on. With around 300 plus members, there is always someone on.

Get the max bonus of XP and Reputation, and you will have your mains and alts to capped level status in no time. We have lots of players, multiple voice servers, and a 2 vault Guildbank.

Dark Ops is recruiting Casual Mature players and Ops players. We play for fun, and to do everything. Please see me on my Characters or email me if I'm not on. I am a Pacific / Mountain time zone player, as such, can be contacted personally in the evenings, in these time zones. I am on Blastfield, Max-Damage, Heartkrusher, or Blade-kill. Contact Me, or any of my Guild Officers for Invite: Vhey'ghas, Katleeah, Buckeyeslayer, Hollinger, or L'ucia We run Ops/Fps groups at night, and often do PvP.

I was wondering what is the best voice program, or maybe i should ask, what is most used, among players involved in Flashpoints or PvP?

still happening

i am getting running multiple instances error, then it closes the login box, and i can't do anything about it

Thanks TOR, I'm getting error code, then it closes the login box, so i can't play. I get error code about running multiple instances, WHICH I AM NOT. I guess they want me to reinstall everything, which i will not. I will cancel my account, if only solution is reinstall. Nice Fail, TOR.

Please make an Account Wallet, for all toons on same server. Unbound items and credits available to all toons. Emailing them, is just a cosmic pain,(pun intended).

Amazing post. I support the OP's idea. Instance everyone of these planets, clone, all the current,planets, change a few things, use maps, from other planets. It should be easy. Make a few notable planets part of new stories, and flashpoints. Make some, pure sandbox style content, and possible future planets for player housing(if they ever add that.) Just make some planets, endless mob/loot/exploration places.

We still need Guild improvements. 1) A Guild Email. This will allow more direct communication within the game,within the guild. 2) A guild bindpoint, designated by GM and any rank the GM allows ability, with checkbox. 3) MOTD needs more space. 4) Separate info box in the MOTD, for Guild's Website. 5) Chat Tab should have a 3rd default tab, of Guild Chat, but make it the second tab. 6) Lastly, we really need a IN GAME Voice ability, primarily, guild voice channel. PvP Improvements 1) A quick Spawn in open battlefield, much like Planetside 2. Huge epic battles. 2) Put Huttball in seperate que. 3) PvP battles in epic buildings and places. a PvP battle in a space station, or a whole iconic city like Kaas. 4) Make offhands automatically, replace each other, when switching from PVE items to PVP items. 5) Allow both pvp and pve suits to be equipped. The game should be able to autodetect which applies. 6) Auto load weekly missions,into mission journal, but don't put them,on your hud. ie, remove need to go get them from npcs. Maybe do that with all dailies,too.

just came back to game, resubbed...then bam....thought my cable had gone down till i tried to relog. maybe i just wasted my 15 bucks

The issues are these, not just losing a name:: 1) Twice, alot of us, had to change names, in less than 3 months. 2) it was not up to us, to be forced onto a new superserver 3) There is apparently not much of a policy, as to what toons, got preference, on names, and why. 4) The answer made, was vague, and designed to be evasive, and discourage discussion. 5) These people, keep failing to understand basics, of an MMORPG, and revert to FPS. 6) Failure to understand that we are, CUSTOMERS. Same mistake SWG, made with CU, the NGE. These guys, clearly need to learn the rules of business. First rule in business "The customer is always right" Second rule in business "Understand your customers needs, and cater to them." Third rule of business " Make everything right, if customer is wronged"

Since your going to allow Legacy names to no be unique, Make first name not unique. Save us alot of time, when trying to create character names, and solve the issue of a beloved name being taken
