  1. 2016 has been hard on Star Wars. First Admiral Ackbar, then R2-D2, now Princess Leia. Devastating.
  2. Wow. Just picking my jaw up off the floor. I guess they finally have came out and said it, that the uncustomizable companions that have appeared since the launch of KOTFE, was not a fluke, but rather an intended design decision. I speculated that was the case, even as BW remained firmly entrenched and silent on the issue, but apparently it's ok to let the dogs out now. Woof Woof. Proof positive ladies and gentleman, that they don't care what we think. They don't care what we say. They don't listen to requests for product improvements and they circular file all feedback. Choices matter they say. Well, they made their choice, and clearly it matters. Now the question is, will their choice to be lazy (or conversely not to be lazy, but rather to restrict) will affect their bottom line. Now that I know we will never get to build the look for anyone new, I have no more use for the Cartel Market. Armors, which are the foundation of the Cartel packs, are no longer needed by me. My personal looks are set, and are very unlikely to change, and since I can't control the looks of who tags along with me, I have no reason to spend. Thanks for making the choice easy for me Bioware! My wallet thanks you immensely.
  3. It's not a Lightsaber whip. It's a Zingaran Slaver's Whip, as seen in Star Wars: The Clone Wars. Here
  4. That set is Imperial Trooper Armor. It already exists as an exclusive for Collector's Edition owners, such as myself.
  5. I really need an Ugnaught, who I can roll as an Assassin, thereby fulfilling the deranged rantings of that crazy man on the Big Boom Run on Ord Mantell. I'd also roll a Rodian, a Weequay and a Mon Cala. If they ever give them to us. Which I doubt.
  6. If Bio-Mal-ware continues to give it's loyal customers a gigantic middle finger at every turn, I'd say no more than a year. This game is at the point of needing server merges (AGAIN) and yet Bioware still doesn't value it's customers. If it weren't so ridiculous, I'd say they are purposely trying to tank this game...
  7. The monetization has been especially strong with this one as of late. Looking at the contents of the new box, the majority of it is reskins and recolors, or outfits assembled from existing parts. Most of the mounts are rehashes too. And the color crystal isn't particularly inspiring. I'm really at a loss for words on this game right now. Games like STO, sure you have to pay money for the good stuff. New ships and what not, and they have their lockboxes too. But they actively put into their game as well. Even when they do a leveling event (last year's Delta Recruit, this year's Temporal Agent) at least they give a bit of content to go with it, and they give some pretty outstanding rewards not only to your new character, but they give stuff to your old characters too. I just can't fathom why they seem to be shoving this game into maintenance mode, when Star Wars as a consumer product is more popular than it's been in years.
  8. Bioware is taking the summer off. Basically, in order to have their vacation, they needed something to keep us chumps busy. So, they have asked that we start the game over, completely, from scratch, until they get back from vacation. Enjoy! PS - They might send us a post card from Oahu, if they can drag themselves away from the beach.
  9. They increased the price of Hypercrates? After looking at the contents of this box on Dulfy (and being anything but impressed) the idea of raising the price, for a bunch of reskins and recolors...is laughable to say the least. I'll be honest, the only thing keeping me here at the moment is that it's not July 6th yet. Once STO's next expansion drops, and I can have a TOS themed adventure, I'll be out for much of the summer, and the girlfriend has been talking alot lately about a return trip to World of Unknowwhat, so if she prevails (and let's be honest, usually what the girlfriend wants, the girlfriend gets, am I right guys?) well I'll be letting the sub lapse, and I'm not sure if I'll be back or not.
  10. The Kelborn Legacy Ro-lan Kelborn: Mandalorian clansman of Clan Kelborn. Yates Ironstar: An homage to Rowdy Yates of "Rawhide." Apprentice Äcastus: An homage to the most evil villain of "Stargate: Atlantis", Acaustus Kolya. Jedi Master Dalen Tohr: Just made it up. Padawan Gar-wan Tohr: Son of Dalen Tohr. Agent Titus Cordd: Just made it up.
  11. You guys and you theories... I'm very much looking forward to the end of this chapter and what it means for our intrepid heroes (and villains!)
  12. The GF and I moved off Bastion to Harbinger this weekend. It was a ghost town over there. The GTN economy was a joke, either nothing sold or there was nothing to buy unless you had millions and millions of EC to spend. After just two days we knew we had made the right decision. Added bonus, we get to take a trip around the block once again, with all new characters.
