  1. The just learned how to alienate their community in the stride for more cash... which we are seeing here.... and its a given they know how pissed we would have been because they never posted anything about these changes...
  2. there is no presence bonus, you go through this with totally new/different companions. The guy is right it is totally easy mode, the companions are WAY OP, the only challenge i felt was when i tussled with Arcan and had to whip out the reserve on him.... i have crap gear and breased right through it with no issues, the only time i died was when i wanted to.
  3. ya same here, i didnt have them then ran some silly quests and picked them back up..... guess we are both wrong then...
  4. Guessing it was so you have to buy the companion customization thingys.
  5. Right on spot.... they didnt put anything in new besides the 2 hours of story line and then they threw the lvl sync in so they wouldnt have to make new content, toss us back in the lower areas with a "lvl sync" on it so its new OOOOOO nothing new you are doing the same old heroics you did before except now you do the exact same thing for EACH planet....... and each planet you have to free it from the battle station which is the same instances for EVERY planet and ya we have to look forward to paying for the same thing again,,,, 2 more hours of story line and then send us back to the old areas to build rep up again....
  6. Once you start doing missions for the new xpansion you return to the old worlds to do so this and that. I think it was done to cut down on work, its a lot easier to make the lvl sync then send you back to places already made and instances that are already created........ to do piddly ****. Really i would just like to have HK-55 back he was the best thing about the xpansion and he is dead
  7. Reading this it makes it sound like everyone will get him the only difference is if you subbed then you get him at the start instead of later on. Of course they never said he would be available to everyone when they were pushing the sub thing.....
  8. So i logged in today and it has been a while but for some reason all my saved ui profiles are gone and characters that i had moved a while back are now back on their original servers. Anyone have any idea if my ui files might still be around anymore and why were my characters moved after i had already moved them prior to this. Thanks.
  9. Would be neat if for the zabrak female they gave us a nightsister.
  10. My understanding was Ubese was just a type of armor like what leia wore in return and in swg is was armor also.
  11. Iam at the same place you are. I logged in lastnight for the first time in weeks, the graphics seems prettier but everything else was still boring, nothing to keep you involved. I have multiple alts on both sides and logging in to all of them was just boring.
  12. This was a known bug in beta and after launch that i thought they had fixed.
  13. You reply solidifies what i was talking about. You have no idea what iam talking about.
  14. What your missing is that the player created the content, you did what you wanted and killed what you wanted. You were not required to do a story line or even quest to lvl. There was tons of content you just used your imigination and played how you wanted not how it was dictated to you. The emu for example is packed most of the time, thats saying alot when people are playing a emu that will be deleted and is buggy as heck just to be able to have a sandbox. 1k people a night says a lot for that situation and setting. If they hadnt of borked swg i would put money it would stll be going today. The day the nge came out there was a mass exodus, i lost over 300 people in my guild that day alone. i always said if they had the pre cu swg with the quest line and dungeons added in it would have been a rocking game. Best of both worlds, sandbox and the ability to do more uniformed game interaction and not losing the social aspect alot of people are missing in todays games.
  15. (about the quote on lairs, the only time that came up was when the village came out or you were grinding jedi, was the only reason to spin lairs, but you wernt required to at all, you could kill and level just like anyone else did without spinning) It didnt feel like a grind in swg though. You wernt locked in to just one profession and you could change them in a afternoon pretty much. You did what you wanted, no dev was telling you that you had to go here and there was no purples or gear sets, you found the best crafter and u purchased the gear from them. Was a totally social community. Which mmo's are not like that now, the whole theme park setting has smashed that. Yes you ground but the grind was getting a group of 20 people and going on a rancor hunt. Was totally social,most of the time you had a ranger and a dancer of some sort in the group and you would pop a camp and get to dancing to get the BF down, players now days just care about the ubber loots, as u will see from reading the need greed roll threads, you have to be geared a certain way or you are left out. There is no imigination in mmo's anymore, devs control everything with these theme park settings. Just try going off the grid on swtor and you will hit a invisible wall. Anyway the older mmo's gave a player more room to play the way they wanted and with the advent of wow that all went out the window. Now we have nose leading quests, max amount on raids, gear sets, eliteism running rampant, no community interaction short of your own guild and then you still have the looking for x amount of hp and spec for run, daily quests which are pretty much required at end game for your "gear sets", no room for players to play the way they want to, all class's now are cookie cutters and yes they have abilities that you spec into but it creates a FOTM which to be accepeted you have to run it or your not accepeted. All that i listed above makes mmo's boring as heck. They become jobs and not games. Be honest who enjoys logging in everyday and running the same dailies over and over just to get a plus 2 upgrade on a gear score or stat. Think it was said it would take 16 weeks to get a full set of gear from running dailies everyday. Tell me that isnt a grind and boring as hell just to be able to be accepeted in a end game raid that is limited to a certain amount so more then likely you will be on the sidelines incase someone has to leave, O but you still get dkp lol. This so called story in swtor is cool the first time through but after the first 15 lvls or so its spacebar time. I know we will never get freedom again in a mmo becasue of the wow generation and how they have been spoiled and have the entitlement idea of wanting everything given to them. Yes there are a few sandbox's out there and the companies are lacking, some of them to say the least, in funding and devs. Most of the wow generation wont buy them or if they do wont last becasue they are too "hard". Maybe iam just too old and enjoy the immersion of the older style of mmo's (no i dont RP lol) when they wernt worried about the fast buck but about players actually playing the game and enjoying it. But here iam still trying them out hoping they will get it right one day but really i think ill be gone before that happens again.

    So this is the fix?

    There is no massive sith zerg, keep your generalities to your server, the point is the mechanics are broken and again they cater to ranged class's which are pretty much the only ones that are getting kills. So ya, look slike the daily is going to turn into a weekly quest if things stay the same.

    Nice so they warn you for commenting on there bad game mechanics, how friggin lovely. Since i cant reply to the message, how bout you mods be a little more respectfull to the players that are putting up with this crap, and when you want to talk about being respectfull how bout shoot the first reply a warning, unless trolling and being a smart *** helps to contribute with the issue of your terrible game mechanics have.

    So we have an instant kill line now that the rebs hide behind and AE us but we cant get to them? Once again you have screwed melee dps.
  19. Can take your smuggness with you on your way to troll other posts, this isnt a troll its a fact. A
  20. Assumption is one thing but reality is that people even want ranged over us to run heroics. Ranged point and click to a mob we have to leap or run over to it to target and attack. Most of the time in a group the ranged pretty much have the mobs killed before i get 2 attacks off. I understand why people choose ranged over us, they have more survivablilty and can get to mobs faster dmg wise. I shelved my marauder over a sniper and was pretty much forced to lvl it to 50 for jacked up reason, to not be able to get a raid slot and have hell getting dailies now. Not happy with this class at all.
  21. you could make the high end med packs that are reusable then drop bio, after the patch u have to have bio to use them, u cant drop it and do something else i believe.
  22. I get the same thing, from raids and doing dailies. in the process of leveling a sniper, so they can get there ranged dps and i can get into a raid group.
  23. Same for me as a marauder, i got to 43 and from reading everyones post, its gets better, it doesnt, i friggin hate marauder but i dont have a choice of rerolling because of time. My guild has a deadline to hit 50 and there is no way i can get another character that high in the amount of time left, so iam stuck with a class i friggin hate for now. A one time AC swap per account would be a god send.
  24. I literally hate hutball, so when i load in if thats it i drop. I think making a penality for people leaving the warzones is idiotic.
  25. I have a 43 marauder and i hate it. I swapped to a sniper and iam loving it, even at low teens i live longer then i do on my marauder 100 percent, marauders are way to weak and there dps ahs to be built up, you just cant dump it like sniper can. I dont think the marauder has any benefit over snipers. If your just looking at skills you might think so but they have to live long enuff to use them which they usually dont.
