Well, let's see, the ability to chat, to have your character's avatar walk around, buy stuff, give stuff to other players' characters, to do custom emotes, to do other emotes (some more RPish that others, no argument there), invite other players' characters on board the the character's ship.
Just off the top of my head.
Perhaps you should name them and provide evidence of your claims, so you don't wind up looking like you're just making it all up.
The Bioware defence force makes me laugh out loud sometimes.
Stating the ability to chat in an MMO is catered towards RP'ers is probably the dumbest thing I have ever read on this messageboard.
-
I'm starting to think Bioware should change the companies name. Maybe to "A later date" or "No guarantees"!
You're killin' us Eric. You're KILLIN' US!!!!
I know right.
I also can't stand how they wait until a day or two before the patch comes out to tell you the stuff you've been looking forward to isn't coming for possibly another 2 weeks to a month.

I have an i5 2500k at 4.5ghz, 8 gb ddr3, and a single gtx 480 and I easily clear 50+ fps in warzones max setting 1920x1080....something else is wrong because this rig is very similar to your buddies.

I think its terrible at this point for this game that players come onto the forums and give a suggestion on a feature that could make them allot of money. Its terrible because this is the only way they ever do anything for this game anymore. If it can't make them more money they don't want anything to do with it, in fact the last free content update we got was hypergate? You could argue the gree event but that was just junk and offered no new end game.
cool story bro go kick and scream somewhere else if you're not gonna add anything productive

Definitely. One of my favorite things to do in Kotor was the swoop racing, it was so fun.
Definitely would like some ship modifications too so I can make it feel more homely. Trophies, pictures, etc.

The appearance of the mask is fine imo, the only thing wrong with it is that its far too large (or long rather) for the face, it basically covers your whole neck which is definitely not to scale. http://imgur.com/EBfh5Mz vs https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/--2GqAhKQwCk/TgRx65nrg9I/AAAAAAAAANA/s1m74ilHAO4/s720/vlcsnap-2011-06-24-20h44m57s7.png

Does it. Are you sure about that?
Lack of delivery access can be for security sake. There are a few MMOs on the market right now that restrict delivery access by devs for security reasons...to create a secure delivery system for the user.
In one game almost the entire cash shop system is locked out except for listing new items and making adjustments. The only way to get access to the systems code is to pull the code in downtime and work it on another server, then reload it to the frame. There is no direct access from the server into the secure transaction system.
At any rate, this is quite a few calories burned in a seemingly silly exchange. Let me summarize.
....I'm not sure why they are having a problem. Maybe they can't get into the bin.
...are you crazy? Of course they can.
...Not necessarily. Depends on how it is designed.
...That's stupid. Anyone that designs it that way would be stupid.
The back and forth over one small element of the discussion reminds me of ice skating uphill. My dad used to have a saying...dont complain that the water was cold when you just jumped in without checking it first.
So maybe you guys should check the water next time before you belittle other community members posts.
Let's try to loosen up a bit, shall we?
I never once belittled anyone, feel free to point out where.
I also don't think its a stretch to say that restricting yourself access to something you created is silly as ****.

This comment seems a bit odd. It seems to be a bit predatory and derisive, as if I am somehow naive. So, for the sake of fairness I will give you the opportunity to demonstrate your knowledge that they definitely have the ability to do this..explain to me how the system is coded, specifically the claim bin and how the system generates the database call for the item chosen.
I will wait for your response.
Again, this seems rather assumptive if you are not privy to how the system are designed specifically in this game. But I have to be fair, so I will let you explain the particular system in this game and how it is coded.
I actually considered suggesting the page claim idea....I think that would work as well.
At any rate, since you decided to be predatory in your first part of your post I'm going to give you the opportunity to explain yourself. Considering I did nothing to draw your ire I think it's reasonable to expect an explanation.
Think about it. Why would they design a game system that they didn't have access to or couldn't alter at will? That makes zero sense whatsoever. If this were the case, they would be the most shortsighted, inept MMO devs on the face of the planet. What if something went wrong with a transaction? You're screwed cause Custom Service doesn't have access to the bin?
-
Of course they would!!!!!! If it was client side IT WOULD BE HACKED! Do you play other mmos!? Like some of the posts I'm seeing I'm just stunned! This isn't a mystery or some complex problem with no apparent solution!
MMO A does this, MMO B does this, MMO C does this! It's not difficult!
If you're a sub, you log onto the website, into your account, and BW will make a new page where you can select your server and which character you send it too! They've done something similar before!
OR
They put it in the Unclaimed section. Done
I know, this stuff totally boggles my mind. I've never seen an MMO have to cope with the difficulties SWTOR seems to have with industry standard features.
I think what bothers me the most about all of this stuff with transfers, ranked pvp system, name changes, and legacy difficulties, etc. is that these were designed from the ground up by Bioware and yet it seems they didn't have the forethought to have these features work seamlessly before releasing/announcing them. We're still (Since 1.2!) in rank pre-season one, when is this junk going to get figured out?
-
Cool, one more person who can solve in 3 sentences a problem a team of MMO developers can't solve in 3 weeks.
HIRE THIS MAN STAT!
Because being condescending is the best way to have a discussion.
-
You haven't read my posts then. I've given examples of the types of things it could be. Also, I'm not the one refuting the devs' communication; you are. Burden of proof is on the one calling someone a liar, I would think.
Is it, or is it not, your contention that they're holding it back to screw with players?
It's clear you don't understand what I'm saying.
I wan't to know what is taking so long because, as I have said, there are multiple viable methods of delivery for a name change. The mechanics are in place and exist. I want to know why this is an issue period because it does not make sense.
-
DarthTHC makes a good point. Do you send it out to just one character on the account? They did say one free change. But how do they do that?
Before when they have sent out items like this it was to every character if I remember correctly...the fireworks, the digital deluxe items. Perhaps they do not have a mechanic in place to simply send it to one character on the account.
My solution to that? Just pass out coins. Players can do with this coins what they wish, use them to buy the single unlocks directly or just spend them on anything else.
Someone else mentioned putting it in the bin, but the bin might be too dependent on player actions. It may be something they can directly access depending on how it's coded.
It's still a trivial issue: for every subscriber account, issue one "Rename: Character Name" item and have it sitting in the unclaimed items section on the Cartel Market. Log onto your character you with to rename, claim item. I still don't understand the delay.
-
If you think that was sound logic, you need to take some classes to figure out what sound logic really is.
It is illogical to assert that BWEA is holding back on the free name changes just to screw with customers. If you can't figure out why that is, you may also need some business classes or experience running a business yourself
I find it funny that you criticize my logic, yet all you do is tell me I'm wrong and you shouldn't have to explain to me why, instead of why I'm actually wrong. Explain to me what is so complicated in issuing the "Rename: Character Name" item to players.
Please refute my point instead of just telling me I'm wrong.
-
Wouldn't work. The whole point of adaptive armor is so everyone can use/buy it. What you're asking for is more weapon types for specific classes. While there is nothing wrong with wanting new weapon types, it would only be beneficial to certain classes...and there is already enough crying on the forums
-
Why do you need a name change anyways? Ninja too many items and now you have a bad rep?
A lot of people are unhappy with their names due to the mass xfers to the larger servers. Many people settled for names they don't really like because they wanted to play but had to choose a new name.
At least as far as I know.

yeah, im about spent on the argueing deal.
Ive presented my points and defended them. I can see when im in the minority though.
The actions Bioware/EA are takeing in the next few weeks will blur the lines as far as what is acceptable and unacceptable for a gamin company to offer its customers.
This game is moving towards a disgusting shadow of what it once was. A decrepit system of corruption run by who has the most money in their RL pockets, instead of a place where people could come together and accompligh goals to acheive greatness.
If the majority of the player base is behind this move, sure, go ahead, have your cake and eat it too.
The novelty will wear off soon. Your dressup dolls will have very little actually engageing fun content to do. The story will dry up, your pvp will die, noone will know what a flashpoint is anymore.
Day after day,
Alone on a hill,
The man with the foolish grin is keeping perfectly still
But nobody wants to know him,
They can see that he's just a fool,
And he never gives an answer,
But the fool on the hill,
Sees the sun going down,
And the eyes in his head,
See the world spinning 'round.
I think you need to get out more if this is disturbing you deeply. It's a video game.

This scenario is akin to a donator on a private server, nothing in real mmo's today.
Then I guess that means most real MMO's today still aren't Pay 2 win?
Not sure where you were going with that to be honest...
-
So your theory is they're holding it back to screw the players? If so, why are you subscribing - paying a company that you believe actively decides to screw you and all its customers?
That's right, throw a fit because I challenged you with sound logic.
Just because I enjoy this game enough to subscribe to it, doesn't make me blind to stuff like this. My opinion on the matter is that Bioware shouldn't say things like this to its playerbase if it's not going to deliver.
A prime example of this is the whole 'Jeff Hickman "lying" about subscribers perks' thread I just read a few days ago on here. Musco literally said "It was a poor choice of words on our part".
Hence why I think Bioware shouldn't promise things it wont deliver, or at least very carefully consider what they're going to tell people.
-
I don't understand how they could be having trouble with this....the name change item exists in the CM. Just mail it out via in-game mail to subscribers. People who buy this "it's complicated" bs are just kidding themselves.
-
People really need to understand the definition of Pay to Win.
Pay to win is where you pay money to gain a game play advantage over another player, whom has no alternate means of achieving that same advantage without paying.
This P2W argument I see pop up every now and then is almost as retarded as the people who want SWTOR to be ported over to a new game engine (the entire game would have to be completely rebuilt from the ground up), they don't actually understand what they are talking about.

Commando named Lieutenant "Litterbox" Desann since havok squad seems to like nicknames

I dunno my UI looks pretty different from pre-1.2. http://imgur.com/OtnSfDs
It's amazing how nitpicky people are in this community.
Why hasn't the "Intercede/Force Leap" bug been added to the list of known issues?
