How the hell am i going to get any codes when i am lying in my bed asleep as it is late here in Europe, time here in Finland is 22:15, and i have wasted enough time waiting for this screw up to be fixed. So, Eric, how the hell am i going to get any codes?

WOW, just WOW, so 8 hours total of downtime, before testing, then a probable additional 2 hours before rolling out any fixes. To top it all, the EU has lost an entire day of gaming, and yet again, will receive the square root of Sod all in any form of compensation. EPIC FAIL.

Way ahead of you on that front. About to open my 4th beer.

TBH, i never received the 5.4a patch, never downloaded anything, just the normal launcher screen.

Granted, you have discovered a major flaw with the recent patch, and are taking steps to rectify these issues. However, this is happening on an all too frequent basis, and again it happens during EU prime time play. Why can you not release all patches onto the PTS before releasing it to the main servers? It would save much agro from the fan base, and allow those of us in Europe who subscribe and pay good money from losing out again and again with zero refunds or bonuses.

To be absolutely honest, this game went downhill fast when 4.0 came around, I have been playing since pre-release, bought the CE of the game (First waste of money here) Subscribed forever, and bought Cartel coins for that extra edge in levelling. But now i see no point in playing anymore. The challenge of doing NiM no longer exists, mainly due to the insane grinding of Cxp, even 16 man TC HM is impossible to complete these days unless you have a group with tier 3 gear. Even then it is probably a challenge, but i wouldn't know, as i am still using 220 armourings for the set bonus because these crates keep giving me earpieces and implants, which is very useful NOT!. Gearing use to be fun, it use to bring guild members together, It use to lead you into endgame content. But alas, those days are gone now, will they ever come back? I for one am not hopeful. PvP is a joke now. Expertise no longer exists, and unless you have a solid 4 man team you are doomed to enter Ranked at your own peril. 4 out of 5 times you are paired up with people who do not know their characters, and other times you are up against an impossible foe to defeat (4 snipers) and your team consists of 3 sorcerers. Gearing as a PvP'er is a complete joke, and a waste of time. Alts no longer exists in my gameplay, having reached tier 2 stage, after a long grind of uprisings and PvP on my main, the thought of having to do that hard long grind again for an Alt is depressing. Why gives us the incentive to complete 8 story classes, then banish our Alts to the pit? It does not make any sense? I love my assassin, he is deception DPS spec, but i also love tanking with him, alas something i can not even comprehend doing without the gear needed, and again, there is a problem. BW/EA need to focus on the gamers, they need to listen. Since 4.0 came around, I started to lose faith in the game, and mainly did PvP. Now that excitement has gone. 5.0 ruined that for me, and now 5.1 is the final nail in my proverbial coffin. I for one of thousands have decided not to subscribe again, when my sub is finished (2 months left of a 6 month sub) I will be following the rest of the guild, and leaving this disaster behind. If something isn't broken, don't try and fix it. Maybe BW/EA need to take a good long hard look at these forums, realise the frustration this gaming community is going through, and actually, for once listen.

Ohh please, pretty please can you make gear grinding more along the lines of impossible, I think you left too much fun in the game as it is. While you're at it, can you ensure all maintenance is done during EU prime time, we don't want the Americans to become annoyed. Thanks for the 1 hour notice.

Let's get one thing straight, I love this game, been playing since pre-release, however this gearing grind is absurd. I play most aspects of the game, PvE, PvP, FP's, Raids etc etc. But this new gearing method is putting a damper on the core objective, which is to reach end game. PVP tokens are low in comparison, 5 for a win, 2 for a loss. same in Ranked. If you solely play pvp, you have to complete over 1000 wz's, and win all of them for one character to gain tier 3 gear. That is an insane amount of grinding. Ops, final boss guarantees a loot drop. Ok, fine, but in an 8 man raid, the other 6 players are screwed, then they have to wait a week for a chance to gain loot in that raid. Last night for example, EV HM, KP HM, TFB HM, all completed and zero drops throughout all 3 raids. I understand that it is the roll of the dice, but seriously? If you are not able to gain anything, how can you progress. Opened over 100 command boxes, and finally i have a golden piece of gear. One, yes one single piece of golden gear. Gearing is a pain, it is lengthy, and it is boring, and very very monotonous. We are now restricted to a single toon for gearing, which is counter-productive when you like playing various characters of either faction. Who ever thought this was a good idea needs to be fired, have his clothes removed, given a small needle and loads of thread, then told he has to "gear up/sow an new outfit" before he can walk out.

It seams that people arw only focused on one aspect of my original post. Ok then lets focus on that. The whole point of this dates back to people crying out for guild capitol ships, and go raiding in a pvp scenario. Have those plans been scrapped altogether? We were told that those thongs were coming, aand would be here by now. No such luck. Is here any point for a guild to pvp when you can't pvp together? I was a pvp'er until the 2.0 changes ruined my armour, since then I've been soley a pve'er. But this latest patch isn't really inviting me to pvp again,. I fully understand that people will space pvp for the time being, because it is new, however it will probably not last long if the subs are not getting what they want. There is already a drop in this new content due to the lack of guild play-ability. Or am i wrong?

Please, do you honestly think there is only one guild out there that has tried to queue 12 v 12? I understand what your saying, why not ranked groups like normal pvp

In my view, BW have done an OK job on GSF. It's ok, but not great. They seem to have taken a few leafs out of oher games (sw battlefront 2 being one example) I like the maps, i like the ships and the ability to advance in geaing/equipment. Now for he bad things. Mouse sensitivity is terrible, it is fine if your a gunship, however as a scout it is horrible. Evasive manoeuvres are non existant. If i want to do a sharp u-turn as a scout i have to upgrade first, then to make it worse, it catapults you into boost. In a dog fight, i don't want super speed past my chasing target. Only to take ages trying to lock onto him again. 12 v 12. Who can they mess this up? You create an ops group, queue as 12 man only to find that everyone on your TS is in another instance or a different map. Why did the designers leave this out? Why is there no capital ships that you can land on? It happens in every SW film, so why not here. I seriously hope the developers read his
