Wow... I raid 3 nights a week from 6:30 - 9. Sometimes only 2. Day 1 is Nightmare KP and EV. Day 2 is Story Mode Denova, followed by 1 or 2 bosses of Hard Mode denova, day 3 is cleanup of anything left over, and the rest of hard mode denova. A entire team in PVP/Tionese mix of gear can clear Hardmode EV and KP if they are competant, and know what the definition of a "skill rotation" is. We had a full rakata Merc that always seemed to be performing badly, and we never knew why until we got the ability to check parsers, and come to find out while we are all pumping 1300-1600 dps, he was putting out roughly 700. Turns out he didn't know what a rotation was and was very quick to understand when we explained to him. He played nearly all day. I gave you the polar opposites of examples there. Very little time played, yet almost full campaign gear, and skilled, and play all day but suck and still get gear. Either way.. nothing in this game is time consuming... at all.

How do you figure legacy was hyped at all pre 1.2? Nobody knew what it was for or what it was going to bring, and when details started to trickle in, people still didn't care. I am legacy 36... 36! I have everything that was auto-given to me and refuse to spend credits to buy something else. First thing I bought, the ship droid upgrade vendor thing. That was 1 million credits. Then I figure I would have access to all the upgrades and such for free since I just dropped 1 mil.. NOPE its 100k ea item? Holy donkey... that's just silly.

Another week of 90% of the questions being pointless and already answered on the forums/somewhere else. I swear.. I think the devs don't randomly choose anything, they pre-screen and pick things that are easy to answer because they are... already answered a million times. Why has there not been ONE contriversal (sp) topic, or request at information not found anywhere. The ONLY thing I have gotten out of all these QA sessions, was that with 10k affection my companions get +10% crit chance on craft/missions. That's it.

No it is not working as intended, there have been 2 posts recently by developers stating that it was wrong and they were going to fix it. Recent update said they fixed it.. yet I am still getting less returns than it costs to send them out, by far. The multiple silent nerfs to slicing have finally caught up and made this horse crap of a gathering skill. On a side note, 1.8k spent on retrieving power crystals, 28k profit made from result. Yes, gathering skills are very balanced.

Oh sorry, You just got 30 days free and a free taun taun pet for literally nothing. If they would have said "In honor of May 4th"... would that have made you feel better? This isn't even a real holiday, so why expect some kind of event. We didn't get one for xmas, valentines day, or any other holiday, so don't expect to see any for them for a while.. Bioware just had it's first real event recently, and it wasn't that amazing honestly, just spat in the faces of crystal crafters by giving some to people that look 10 times cooler than what is currently craftable.

Ultima online... You find a spot anywhere on the map, build your house, lock the door furnish it etc... Ultima online had the best player housing system of any game... ever.

What did you freaking expect...? May the 4th.. i mean really? It's not even a holiday, you just fell into the hype that others attempted to start on here and assumed there would be an event. Any long term MMOer would have told you that you were wrong.

My grandma said... lawl...

The old thread I made got moved into the sniper sub-forum. I am not sure why, and it really upsets me. Cover is a imperial agent ability, not sniper. It is not unique to sniper or operative, we both use it, thus this should be in the IMPERIAL AGENT FORUM, not the sniper subforum. The fact that the original was moved just proves that moderators of forums do not play the game nor have any idea of what is going on inside... ************************** I am not sure if it has been since 1.2, maybe one of the last 2 patches, but 80%+ of the cover found in game, my agent will roll to, then come out of it automatically. This happens a lot, and once i find one of the spots, I can reproduce it nonstop, moving, standing still, in combat, out of combat it doesnt matter that spot just DOES NOT WORK.. I am not the only one, others I have talked to in /1 experiencing the same problem, as well as a few other people on this forum. Can bioware PLEASE look into this and fix it? It is really gimping every sniper especially (Since we have to be in cover for most of our abilities). This would not be a big issue if you could just TURN OFF the auto-go to a physical cover spot, but naaaah you cant'. If you are targeting an enemy, and are within range, you will automatically go to that stupid cover spot even if you dont want to. That itself is a pain in the ***, add in the fact that they are mostly not working and throwing you out of cover just means your going to die now in warzones and while leveling up. I seriously want to know who is testing these patches for you guys, I use to think it might be a chimpanzee ... but more things would be found if that was the case. Are you guys just changing values in code and then updating it? It's like you change things that aren't anywhere CLOSE to being mentioned in the patch notes ANYWHERE, (Silent patches..?) and it breaks, and we have nothing to blame it on because there was no information about it in patch notes. Please fix the take-cover ability.. this is just getting stupid. You can't hope to continue to bring out more and more new content if you just keep breaking earlier and earlier developed content, something needs to give!

Why was this topic moved to the sniper area? Its a IMPERIAL AGENT ability. Why would you move this? Operatives go into cover as well... Who is running these forums.. honestly!

We cant "crouch" that is a default action if there is no cover around. If there is cover, it auto goes into it. So.. no.

Try being on a server where everything sold/bought on the GTN is practically at default price if not lower. There is no economy on my server, Anyone over 2 million credits is one of the top 5 richest players there is. Our fleet peeks at 30 players. The only form of currency comes from doing dailies, and even then thats 50k and I can sell the mod/armoring for 5k on the GTN. 20 days later ill have 1 mil, maybe...? Throw in repair costs and thats about gone already. At least your server HAS an economy, to where you can go out and farm some items, or sell your loot for more than default prices. Got a friend playing on a relatively populated server, he sells his 2 belsavis item mods for 180k-300k total, and i envy him. DNA event, know how much our DNA went for? 300 ea. Fatman.. 30k ea. Shows you the difference in economy to population. No people playing = no money being generated on server = no stimulation on crafting = no point in gaining money. So repairs, modswapping, all that stuff, is practically impossible without grinding dailies for 3 weeks to swap some gear from 1 set to another, and thats only if you dont wipe 20+ times in that 20 day period or your money is gone.

Ok, so you are telling me that they are going to open it up to choice? So 75%+ of the population will just transfer to the same 2 servers... I seriously doubt that will happen. There will be so many restrictions, that it will HAVE to be a merge, or a fake transfer. If they tell everyone on Naddist Rebels server that they can now transfer to 1 of the 3 listed servers... thats practically the same thing as a server MERGE.

You mean.. server MERGES? and when did you see anything about summer? I must have missed that post.

Too bad for all the people that expected a event of some kind.. I don't know why everyone got so excited over it... lol The event is... 20$ off star wars from amazon and stuff! AWESOME!

Less focus on the storyline aspect/single player of the game, and more focus on the MMO portion of it would make me resub 3 months.

The paid transfers are quite some time away I'd imagine. What people keep saying server transfers are mis-speaking. It will be server MERGES first. Then the paid transfers, and that would be when you can pay for EACH character to transfer over to a server of your choosing, more than likely losing your legacy level in the process.

Good story, except that last little line there... You see, When the server transfers come, the first phase will be forced merges. This is the only logical choice, and it will be a group of servers merging onto one. After that is done, shortly after, they will allow Payed Transferes to servers of your choice. That is the one that will probably cost 5-10$ per character you wish to transfer over... PER CHARACTER. Making the game focus on legacy was a pretty good gimmick for this as well, since I have 5 characters, and will probably have 6 or 7 by the time the paid transfers come up. If I am wanting to transfer them, I will probably lose my legacy levels, due to it being a optional paid transfer, and not a merge. The logic behind this? 15+ years of MMO experience, as well as EA trackrecord and biowares inability to get anything done without kicking subscribers while we are down. This will cause fury, rage etc, but bioware won't respond to that, and just monitor the forums and delete each one they see.

Yeah this is stupid... even standing still doesnt work all the time. My sniper is getting wrecked in PVP now due to me not being able to cover. I have to hit ESC, deselect everyone then hit cover and hope it goes stationairy with my own cover, or else im screwed.

Every spec for any class that focus's on DoTs is currently outparsing other specs. Annihilation for marauder, Madness for sorc etc etc... It's just... DoTs = high dps due to you being able to move around and still have damage going off on the boss at all times. Just the way it works. I do agree though, I believe that Carnage should be the HIGH DPS spec for marauder, Annihilation being a higher survivability/mobile spec, as well as marskmen being the big DPS winner for sniper and lethality being a closs second with survivability/mobility specialty. Oh well.. Bioware follows WoW... and WoW likes DoTs. It is what it is. Pro Tip though. Using things like "Herp da Derp" is quite stupid... I see it very often on this forum and I shake my head each time. It makes you sound like you are 12. If they were real idiots they wouldn't be able to say things like that, they would just drool and press their faces on the keyboard.

I am not sure if it has been since 1.2, maybe one of the last 2 patches, but 80%+ of the cover found in game, my agent will roll to, then come out of it automatically. This happens a lot, and once i find one of the spots, I can reproduce it nonstop, moving, standing still, in combat, out of combat it doesnt matter that spot just DOES NOT WORK..

20$ off the game... HAHAHA I never thought there would be an event, but BAM there it is. Awesome. Glad you guys were proven right (Sarcasm)

I have done tons and tons and tons of purple 340 missions, and have only gotten 2 pieces and both were from diplomacy. Both were the same exact piece... pants. Now, I really like what you are TRYING to do, but whats the point of that? You already made it very difficult to get, and the stats aren't much better than a purple at that level to begin with, but why make it pointless to have in the first place. Can you please consider upping the "find chance" or perhaps trading in 2-3 inheritance pieces for 1 birthright token something like that? Another thing, I love that it is bound to legacy, that's great... but I don't understand why after I use it on my... let's say sniper, I can't send it to my next character for them to use as well. They should be universal tokens that you can re-trade in for a different class's slot with as rare as they are. I have gotten 2 pairs of pants.. 2. What do I need 2 for?

Quite honestly, I think you guys really need to get a team together and figure out how to take out a lot of the LINEARness that this game entails. Going through the same exact path on 4 characters is grueling. Now I know I can level by PVPing, but you guys have said that PVP is not your focus, so I feel I shouldn't spend any time on it at all if you arent.

1. No, The ability shouldn't even be in the game if its obtainable at level 1.. makes no sense to even have it. 2. No that's silly. Time = money 3. Would que for cross server as well as spam. The spamming will never stop. 4. I expected it to, it should be the norm. The fact that it didn't, nor were the tools available for a 3rd party version was quite sad for 2012. 5. Ummm.. no? It would make me want to play it more. If they are going to attempt to create a Theme Park MMO (A genre of MMO's made famous by WoW that several other companies attempt to re-create), then they should have had the same features available pre-launch. Excluding content of course, that just comes with time. 6. Of course not, as stated above the "Bar" is always going up. Bioware failed to meet these standards. I had nothing else to play and am currently subbed. 3 great games coming out very soon that will draw me away guaranteed, and I may come back to here in a year or so when bioware is finally out of the BETA phase. ***** The thing that IRKS me the most, is FF14 Launched and was bashed for missing a ton of elements that a game should have at launch. Soooo what did they do? They admitted to their failures, and made it free to play until they could re-do and add everything that should have been in at launch. Why does bioware get away with it? Because EA is known for doing this, and people/companies have gotten use to these kind of turds rolling out from EA, whereas SE is a very respected company in Japan, and for them to do something like that was a big hit to their stocks. Stocks = money, less money = bad company. If we could just be more like the japanese... lol
