How would I determine if it's gone bad? Model is a Corsair TX750. Edit: This is the error message I get when the game locks up and crashes... https://imgur.com/pA8VH3b

Bless da frick up. Got me coins and transferred my character. You made me happy now.

It's good to finally see some representation from mods on this hot topic. I really hope my CC's will be granted to me before the week has ended. Bright side is, at least I have some CC to use from my subscription and plan to unlock a mount through my legacy unlocks now...

Funny how a third-party distributor is more reliable than a (mostly) direct source. Let that sink in.

I wouldn't hold your breath on the fix - you might die. The reason why I said that is because they have such a skeleton crew working on the game if something really complicated happened that required either a) a large patch or b) sophisticated programming to fix the issue, they would be backlogged for an eternity. And while you are right about the ToS/EULA, I'm positive there is some sort of legalese in there that can make them vulnerable. Remember - this company is based in America (EA Games) - the country where you can sue anybody for just about anything. Edit: Let's not forget this fiasco! EA has been in trouble for something (kind of) similar in the past. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/gaming/news/hawaii-crack-predatory-loot-boxes-video-games/

Given all the issues with account/subscription status and how slow they are to fix even the smallest of problems related to this game... we could be waiting weeks for a cartel coin fix.

You're telling me man. I don't know if it's incompetence or what? They can't seem to understand the most basic concepts surrounding business and how to retain customers. Alex Becker would have a field day with SWTOR/BioWare/EA. At this point we must ask ourselves... what's the difference between ignorance and apathy? I don't know and I don't care. Neither do the people in charge of the cartel market. This is what the process has more or less turned into. Try giving their EA support a call.

Nope. Not beyond the typical automated response or the Dev tracker. Garbage!

TBH, they probably won't even give an apology. Let alone any kind of compensation. "The game works? Okay, good." That's about what you'll get.

The sad reality is this: they are going to take the route they've always taken on this. Which is that they will play it off as no big deal, take ages to fix anything, and then wonder what gimmick or cartel item they can make to pull people back in with. The only way we stop this crap is by voting with our wallet. I can tell you after this fiasco with cartel coins, I will not be giving them a cent more than my subscription fee. If I don't get my owed coins within the next week or so, I might even cancel that. Terrible customer service and game support will be my reasoning. I will copy and paste the transaction information and the extremely poor experience I have had as my reason for leaving. ^^^^ Pretty much this honestly. The example isn't the best, but the idea is certainly on point.

Amen brother. They have more excuses than someone on parole caught with contraband. And frankly? I'm sick of it...it's dishonest, unethical business, and morally bankrupt. I hope that they take a lesson from this (but I know they won't EA Corporate are the most greedy people on the planet). The customer service will continue to be sub-par and this trend of not solving problems quickly and efficiently will continue. This game will continue to be manned by a skeleton crew that produces the bare minimum to keep the game afloat (as the EA overlords demand).

BioWare/EA has the most pathetic customer service on the planet. They have and never will have a sense of urgency for the people playing their game.

36 hours later. Nothing.

I think they should have to give us 25% off our purchase for the mere inconvenience.

Some people claim to get them, but the majority of people I know have not. Despite multiple purchases. Buyer's beware.

24 hours later, no cartel coins. Credit card charged for purchase. So tell me again, why are we waiting this long?

Neco thread! This has been driving me INSANE lately. Has this or will this ever change?

Negative, doesn't happen with any other game. None of my problems happen when I play any other game. I can play a game like Farcry 5 on max settings with 60 FPS, zero problems with frame rates or this new screen flickering thing when I parse with SWTOR. It's sad that you guys have been more helpful than the devs in problem solving this with me, I really appreciate the community's help.

I'm gonna take the advice you guys gave, but a new problem has started. While parsing on a dummy, my screen will turn grey, my monitor resets and I lose my entire parse. Is my graphics card possibly failing? All temps are within acceptable ranges and all drivers are up to date ... I don't understand what the heck is happening. Again, I have (zero) problems when playing other games. Only SWTOR.

This problem is OUT OF CONTROL for me right now. The game is unplayable in all events with more than just myself (but fleet works fine for some reason?) Despite having interwebs with a ping of 40 M/S 99.9999% of the time and specs like these: Processor: Intel® Core i7-3770K CPU @ 3.50GHz, 3501 Mhz, 4 Core(s), 8 Logical Processor(s) Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 Any suggestions or help with this cluster&*#$?

Too bad their game optimization is utter trash. Despite having Tier 1 internet and a way above par gaming PC, my frames rate sucks and this game crashes constantly.

Anyone having this problem lately? It seems since the last update, every single time I try to sign on the very first to third attempts, I am always booted from the game at the character screen. The program gives an error and failure message. It's becoming incredibly annoying.

Finally someone with the fortitude to say what everyone else is really thinking.

One of Murphy's Laws: "never sleep with anyone crazier than yourself." Especially if it sires children out of the ordeal.

Clearly the results are rigged! I think the Electorial College has struck again...
