  1. I usually group to get more Social Points... I want to buy all social clothes in the game... I'm only rank 2 right now,.. its a slow going process

     

    social is very slow going. especially when you come back to turn them in and the NPC basically says "thanks" and you have no interaction with it...and they send you on your way. you ran around doing whatever with your group and get nothing but xp and a little useless item. we should at least get a social point for running with a group.

    but thats just my thoughts on social points :)

     

     

    running the Esseles (republic) or the Imperial equivalent (can't think of the 1st flashpoint when you get to the fleet station) will give you on average 160 social points with a 4 person group ...

     

    run that once a day and you can level up your social points VERY fast. if you outlevel the quest no big deal, you still get the social points and you can do it within 20 mins ...

  2. i run the Esseles flashpoint for the social points really ... you listening to the conversation over and over get boring ... i look for or advertise that i;m running it for social points, those joining then expect that it will be a quick run through ...

     

    BUT if i'm helping others who have never done it before, i wait for them to enjoy the story and never rush them. after all its the experience they are looking for ...

  3. ok i find space combat somewhat fun and a nice diversion from the traditional MMO quest grind ...

     

    but what i do not like is that fact that the space missions have a time limit and that controling the ship is extremely limited ...

     

    wheres the free controls for flying your ship around?!?

     

    wheres the ability to focus on 1 target until its obtained?!?

     

    whats up with the time limit?!?

     

    i'm currently trying to complete Hydian Way Blockage ... and the speed at which i fly passed the mines and minelayer is way too fast and its Constantly circling around in a wide circle which takes forever to return to the location where is was trying to disable a particular minelayer ...

     

    this is not enjoyable at the least ... the time is too short and it seems to take forever to destroy parts of the minelayer. hell i can destroy parts of the imperial destroyers and dreadnaughts in other missions quicker than i can destroy the engines on the minelayer ... and i have all level 5 equipment on my ship, so i don;t know what the problem is ... except for the 3 above unexplainable questions ...

     

    you want to know what was a fun star wars space combat game? X-Wing, Tiefighter and the pinnicale game, X-wing vs Tiefighter ... these were star wars space combat games done right. free flight controls, missions had time limits but with the free flight controls you were able to focus on what exactly was your mission, and not have to worry "oh how many more times am i going to circle around until the time runs out" ...

     

    come one BW ... you really have not done your research on this too much, and if you though of limiting the flight controls was a good thing, well then you were wrong ... SO WRONG ... look at all the awsome flight simulators out there, almost all of them (that mattered) had free flight controls ...

     

    GIVE US FREE FLIGHT CONTROLS IN SPACE COMBAT!!!

  4. Anyone else feel like the Collectors Edition was a waste of money?

     

    The reason why i ask is because well lets put this way the speeder bike only lasts till 25. The Mouse Droid isnt the best looking companion in tor and again can be won in a raid just with different looks. The Holodancer doesnt last long. The Holocam is pretty much screenshots and the Targeting thing can be bought in game with a different visual. And also pretty much all in the CE digital items was buyable in the Digital Deluxe eddition.

     

    Also the Collectors Store is the biggest waste of time ever there is 1 armour set which btw if you arent a pistol or rifle user looks stupid, There is Only 1 companion Customisation kit for your first companion unless you are sorc then you got 3 and all the Companion kits look rubbish except Khem Vals.

     

    Also the fact that the Digital Deluxe was £60 and had every digital item except the collectors store and the mouse droid just pretty much shows that we have been ripped off.

     

    Because the Non Digital Stuff isnt worth £90 for example the art book id say is worth £8 the Statue is about £40pounds the CD id say £7.99 and the Authenticator is prob worth £5-10 and the Map is worth £2.

     

    So thanks alot bioware the only reason i Bought the Collectors Eddition because it was said that the Collectors Store was Suppose to have items and Visual Looks that you cant get anywhere else in the game? So bioware if you do intend to make the CE actually worth the payment Upgrade this please or maybay even give us a Speeder bike for All the skills not just training 1.

     

    May i also ask what anyone elses opinion on this is?

     

    why did you buy it then?!?

     

    it was clearly laid out what you were getting for the money ... the DD clearly laid out what you were getting as well ... so you should have gotten the DD.

     

    if you pre-ordered 6 months earlier ... why did you do that, when you know that you can order the EXACT same CE the day before or the day of the release ... hell i see the CE sitting on the shelves at Best Buy.

     

    i bought the CE because i always buy a CE of something i look forward to playing, i could care less about the color crystal, and all the other junk they gave you, except for the speeder bike. and whats wrong with the speeder bike?!? i;m level 50 and still using it, and i;m glad i have it cause the cost for buying the skill to use the higher bikes is CRAZY ... i'm not a money maker so i'll be using my bike for a long time.

  5. ok so whats up with the loot system?

     

    haven't done many Ops but i have done quite a few FPs and it seems the loot system is a little sketchy.

     

    could you incorperate a Smart Loot System into the game?

     

    Everquest 2 introduced a smart loot system to there raiding portion that would drop loot that was specific to the classes involved in the raid. now if you had every class in the raid, then naturally it would drop anything. but if your raid makeup was missing, lets say an assassin, shadowknight, or a berserker ... then the chances of loot dropping for those classes would be a 0% chance.

     

    here its a bit different because there aren't many different classes currently (if this ever changes i don;t know) so an 8 man Op could very well have 1 of every class or only lack 1 particular class. also the factions do not mingle while doing Ops, unlike EQ2 does (both evil and good classes could work together in raids) ...

     

    just a thought and maybe something to incorperate in the future ...

  6. yes yes yes OMG yes ...

     

    its so damn annoying ... there are very few head pieces that actually look nice but its all jacked up when its visible. i have a Miraluka, and she has a high ponytail, it cuts through EVERY time, i have no problems with the vail just the ponytail. now i'm stuck with showing no head piece at all or just using her robes ...

     

    come on BW get someone on the graphical end to work on this ...

  7. ***, I logged on 10 mins after the servers came up and there where 10 people in the fleet, this game is dying!111oneoneone1!

     

    in a word, you're an idiot ... think about what you just said, now take in to consideration what day of the week it is, the time it is, the fact that the servers JUST came back up and lets not forget that its a holiday ...

     

    get a life ...

  8. none of you people have played a disfunctional MMO before ... i have and its running pretty damn good ...

     

    patches, hotfixes, updates are all normal in the MMO universe and if you say otherwise, you're full of crap!

     

    all you people complain about bugs and problems in the game. have you ever realized that the gaming community is to blame for early releases and problems in games today? everyone pushes and pushes for developers to realease games before they are finished and then you complain that it doesn;t work. even regular RPGs, 1st shooters and others have bugs and problems, because the community always demands new games at a pace that they don;t want to wait for. look back 5 years ago (PC, 360, PS2, PS3) and count how many games that they released that didn;t require some sort of patch or bug fixing.

     

    gone is the time when you bought a game and played it without having some sort of problem with it. the public demands the games, not tomorrow or today, but they demand it yesterday, regardless if its 100% functional. and the industry knows its can make more money getting it out early, and worry about patching the bugs later thanks to an internet connection.

     

    so stop complaining and play what you can ...

  9. This is an obvious troll thread.

     

    People are exaggeratting the crap out of these bugs.

     

    I played 99% of the game without any freakin' issues.

     

    More problems are PEBKAC -- Problem Exists Between Keyboard And Chair

     

    Or

     

    They need an upgrade.

     

    agree ... i haven't a single issue with game play with any of the patches they have made, just made level 50 about 2 days ago.

     

    my friend is level 36, and so far hasn't had any problems with game play either, probably because we have almost identical system configurations and far exceed BW system recommendations.

  10. yea i just reached 50 yesterday and saw the in-combat rez ability ...

     

    dunno why they waited until level 50 to give it, well actually i do, you really need it for Ops i guess, but it felt weird not having it until the end.

     

    as for Commandos, that sucks they don;t have 1 ... whats the point of being a Medic then, i;m hoping its just an oversite.

  11. The zones are situated the way they are so you don't have dozens of hopping kids filling your background and shooting stuff while you're trying to talk with a questgiver.

     

    i have never had anyone hanging around a quest giver longer than a minute or two, and most of all the class story quest givers are in seperated spaces, away from the main flow of traffic, so again, whats the point of cutting off the area from everyone else?

     

    i'm just saying, the feel of the environment would be cleaner if those green/red forcefields would be removed.

     

    i like to explore and look around, and being cut off from a certain part of the building because its "trooper zone only" is kinda stupid.

     

    but its a minor thing and i'll get over it :D

  12. whats the point of Class Only zones being restricted to "that" particular class?!?

     

    these "green" / "red" forcefields seem pretty silly IMO, simply because in the Options you can allow others to enter your zone.

     

    just simply leave the areas accessable and leave all the NPCs inside there, i mean only the player with the correct class can talk to your NPC and get their update. and as for specific targets to be killed in that zone, simply make it targetable only towards that class.

     

    i think it would clean up and give the game a more polished look ...

     

    opinions?

  13. Absolutely ...

     

    i'm a Consular Healer and have been using Nadia ever since i got her, at first with her general start up gear it was a bit shaky, simply because my lizard was outfitted with all his latest and updated gear.

     

    but after 2 changes of gear so far, she's kick-*** awsome, she does more dps than my lizard, and i have hardly any need to cast my offensives except maybe my AoEs for group mobs. otherwise i just shield and heal ...

  14. they should give a free reset every 30 days, that way it'll give you a chance to use it for a good amount of time before you prematurely deside to reset it again.

     

    they should also include an item where you can store a selected skill set and switch it whenever you want (swap between dps and healing) ... this would be an awsome item to included in crafting, specifically cybertech or biotech

     

    make crafting meaningful

     

    could be something like ...

     

    Matrix Cube of Change

    "change your skill set, while recording and storing your current setup"

    level 50

    restriction 1 per character

    requires cybertech 400 (or Biotech 400) to make

    useable by anyone

  15. Keep "Project" (the yanking from the ground of boulders, droids, containers, etc.).

    Change "Telekinetic Throw" to something more 1.) visible, 2.) cooler.

     

    i agree ...

     

    i would make suttle changes ...

    - "Telekinetic Throw" would yank various items out of the ground

     

    - get rid of "Project" and replace it with "Force of Nature" using various effects like a cyclone, hailstorm / blizzard, thunder & lighting ... all of which i think would be ****** (imagine seeing a hailstorm / blizzard on tatooine from a distance :eek:)

     

    the inquisitors definitely got the cooler of the visual effects
