  1. My 2 cents:

     

    Preordered the CE and have subbed since headstart, but this new event just showed me how bad this game is at it's core, and I really don't see them fixing it. Might not even be possible with the cannibalized version of the Hero engine they're using.

     

    Added to all the broken promises and outright lies(removing the grind my ***) it's just not worth playing any more.

     

    If they ever make it so you can level solely from class quests(which are the only part of the levelling experience that isn't a grind packed in VO) or make the world feel alive, and not just like a static background, I might return.

     

    But I really doubt that's going to happen. They've shown time and time again that they're unwilling or unable to make any good decision. And now with the F2P mixed with EAs greed I don't have any hope for this game.

     

    This game should have been so much better.

     

    RIP Bioware and Star Wars MMOs.

     

    And shame on you BEAware for turning the SW IP, Bioware and a mountain of cash into a broken, stuttering pile of s**t.

     

    EDIT: Forgot the 40% of unsubbers unsubbing because of the monthly fee line.

     

    Everyone who bought this game knew it had a sub fee and were prepared to pay it.

     

    And saying this game isn't worth 15 bucks a month isn't the same as saying they'll return if it goes F2P.

     

    A bad game is still a bad game even if it's free.

  2. 1. Bad leadership

    2. Hero engine

    3. Broken Ilum(Hero engine)

    4. Ignoring beta testers

    5. No character copy to PTS for 5 months

    6. No communication

    7. Bad community manager(Wasn't he allowed to communicate or didn't he just feel like it)

    8. Lack of dungeon tools

    9. No cross server for warzones

    10. Pvp imbalance

    11. Releasing a beta

    12. Lingering bugs

    13. Same bugs still there even if claimed they are fixed

    14. Way too many servers

    15. No transfer option until it was too late

    16. Static world

    17. Pulling rated warzones 11 hours before the patch

    18. EA

    19. Jeff Hickman

    20. Teams of stunlocking operatives

     

    Pretty much this.

  3. Down to a standard population at 10:00 pm eastern. That should just tell you the whole picture there EA. LOL I told you so 450k subs and counting down

     

    Nono. This game is doing great. Going F2P after 8 months is just the way the way the MMO-industry is going.

     

    Just wait and see how BEAware will churn out new content every six weeks with less subs and less employees !

  4. Unless you reduce the cost of extracting mods substantially. Having to grind half a million credits for the "privilege" of equipping cool looking gear that is useful is going to cost you potential sales. Use your brains on this. My logic is undeniable. Reduce the cost of mod extraction and increase your own bottom line.

     

    Don't worry. Extracting mods will be available in the cash shop.

  5. Everybody thinks that the Legacy System was a letdown, a supposed reward for high legacy level players turned out to be a credit sink

     

    Don't worry. It will all be available in the cash shop.

     

    Which is most likely why the credit prices are so high.

  6. Maybe sometime in the future a developer will be able to make an MMO worth $.50 a day..

     

    Imagine how much money and years of development that would take! :eek:

     

    It would also take a brain and a tiny bit of integrity. Which are very hard to come by these days.

  7. You know, I have to agree.

     

    I was thinking about that this morning as I rode my ice cream unicorn into the sunrise. I too drew the conclusion that the only thing stopping this game from far outpacing the MMO juggernaut of our time was that it hadn't yet been turned into an infrequently-updated, poorly-supported, pay-to-win crapfest by one of the most notoriously gouge-happy and anti-player corporations around.

     

    I want an ice-cream unicorn :(

     

    Do you get one automatically if you say this game is doing well?

  8. "Out ideal situation is for people to enjoy a class all the way through (untill you finish the story,hit 50) and then GO BACK and open another class as there is an entierly another story there"

     

    To be fair this was my plan.

     

    Then I found out that 85-90% of the quests were the good old "kill 10 boars"-kind only with voiceovers.

     

    Don't really care how much they messed up the rest of the game, but they promised to "remove the grind" and then made it ten times worse by dangling awesome class quests in front of you, but sticking hours of grinding between them.

  9. And once all those freebies play through 2-3 class stories they'll leave too, because the rest of the class stories might be good but they have to wade through the planetary and side quest lines AGAIN to be on-level for the class stories and that's boring as hell.

     

    That's what the "boosts" in the CS will be for.

     

    I wonder if they'll even bother reducing the exp you get to prolong the grind and make people buy them.

     

    IMO it's not needed because Taris is gonna slap anyone who's playing Rep in the face soon enough.

  10. no there isn't a profit in P2W. Can you name a P2W game that didn't die out? Can you name one in North America that is popular? The second a P2W item comes the game would be dead. People would leave faster then they did after launch.

     

    and thats my point. EA wants big profits. P2W does not give that. If it did we would have seen EA doing that in Battleifield 3, Warhammer Wrath of Heros or any of the other games. Pay 2 Win would be in every single EA game.

     

    It's EA. Check my signature...

  11. Well, actually, EA painted TOR as a failure, referring to it as both a "miss" and a "disappointment" during the conference call.

     

    No !

     

    This game is successful. It has more players than... most games that cost 1/5 of it's budget !

     

    BEAware will fix everything when it goes F2P. Just wait and see.

     

    Am I doing the whole fanboy thing right?
