  1. I think the main problem here is that swtor actually has a story that connects each world to the last as well as the story for each planet while wow had a story for each zone and that's it. It's kinda hard to make a flowing storyline if players try to skip zones because its "too linear" for them.

     

    I for one am glad the BW took the time to actually add a storyline for my character to play through. If you do.t like it then maybe you shouldn't play a game that's supposed to be story driven.

     

    Also, as far as zones not being "open" enough, this isn't SWG with massive planets full of nothing to do or wow with its crazy climate boxes were you run from desert to tundra to rain forest with only a few steps. Each planet is different. Hoth and tattooine are very open and anyone who says otherwise is simply trolling, as for nar shadaa and the other city worlds well... Their not supposed to be open, it like running around in nyc and ************ that the buildings are in the way.

     

    TL/DR this isn't wow or swg.... Get over it.

  3. The changes are not live, why do you all think the changes are set in stone, unchangable, the will of god..

     

     

    If you don't like what you see, hop onto the test server, fill out the feedback forms, go onto the feedback/test server forum and complain, send Emails? harass them?

     

    you pay their wages, and if you feel the changes are an unwarranted nerf, or a silly change that is poorly thought out you are within your rights to complain.

     

    they have already stated they arent going to base their changes on QQ, so this idea wont work. itll just waste your time sending it all and their time reading it.

  4. What confuses me the most is that this new patch buffs and fixes the popular classes yet totally ignores Op problems like 3 talents that are out right broken just in the med tree.

     

    Can anyone explain what in hades is going on?

     

    I think someone said it best when they called the blatant slap in the face to only the operative class with note of the other stupidly OP classes a "witch hunt"

     

    pvp was ****ed and BW didn't have time to fix it all so they struck out at the least played class to show they were working on it and appease the masses.

  5. I wish people would understand that buffing and nerfing is not needed in MMO's.

    play the cards you're dealt. Play the game the way it was made, find your strengths and weaknesses and use them to your advantage.

     

    Good players will always find ways to do things.

     

    Your wrong, buffs and nerfs are needed. However, Knee jerk over the top nerf batting like 1.1.1 is not. I understand the need for balance in an mmo but out of the 4 AC I'm playing atm I like my ops playstyle the best and find him very lackluster by comparison. Not to sound like a QQing ****** we see all over but if BW doesn't actually fix the class by the time I'm done playing all 8 storylines I'm probably going to unsub as well.

  6. Oh no! Now you have to heal! What nonsense is this?! I rolled a DPS class didn't I? WHY CAN'T I TANK RAGNAROS ON MY DRUID?!

     

    fixed it for you, you accidently put a "might" in front of "have to heal"

     

    maybe thats what this really was. people couldnt find healers so BW decided to nerf the bejesus outta operative dps since it was already pretty poor to force them to go heals and fill the void. tricksy false bioware is.

  7. It seems reasonable that some people would want to avoid helping the enemy in any way possible, especially players interested in PvP. If PvP is something I cared about (which it is), why would I want the other side to have access to our medpacks, stims or gear?

     

    i suppose i can see that point of view, however, from a PvE point of view of it would be better to have them linked to make those items more accessable.

     

    They had auction terminals on most major planets on both sides in beta but they were removed, appears there was a bug and anything posted there would only show up if you were at auction terminal on that planet.

     

    I am guessing once they fix the issue they will put them back on the planets.

     

    this would be great! if people didnt have to go all the way back to fleet and deal with all the load screens and stuff to get there and back i think alot more people would use the GTN.

  8. No, there are places to find cross-faction GTN's. The standard ones should remain faction only.

     

    could you elaborate as to "why" you feel they should remain faction only? IMO i only see a possitive effect to making them server wide instead of restricted to each faction. but if you have a legitimate reason as to why they should remain differnt i would like to hear it.

  9. And what exactly is hands-on with sending a companion out on an underworld mission that last 1.2 hours?

     

    Presently I do it all the time at work now, log in, send my minions out on their hour long missions, log out...log back in collect goods, repeat. Hey, I'm not the one who designed the asinine system, don't yell at us for using it as intended.

     

    Using it as intended is fine, an app for a smart phone is not using it as intended and would be exploited.

  10. There isn't one. And I hope they don't waste any time, effort, and money on something so trivial.

     

    Pretty much this, and the fact that it would be exploited by cred farmers like no other. The ability to play the game without playing the game is always a terrible one.

  11. Other games do it. Games with less money behind them. Or are you implying that EA/Bioware is too incompetent to figure out how to make it work here?

     

    im saying that just because it can be done doesnt really mean it needs to. maybe a cross faction one would be fine without going through the trouble of linking all the servers in a stable and reliable manner to make one massive GTN. the word "overkill" comes to mind.

  12. this thread seems to be getting slightly off topic but ill give my 2creds worth on the cross-server idea anyway.

     

    personally, im against a cross-server for 1 reason only. could you imagine having to search every item on every server to find the thing you want to buy? sure they could fix the interface to make it easier to search, but everytime you hit that button you would have to go take a nap to kill time before the search got done. if they could do upgrade the engine to support it i would be down, but that would require alot more effort then simply linking the ones already on the same server.

  13. Oh, now that is a fun idea! We have instantaneous intra-galactic communication and warp travel, I think we'd have tech equivalent to an ebay app on an iphone on our space-age space machines. Fully support this! I could see it being only for viewing or bidding purposes only for the ship, might need the physical terminal to put in the goods to post up. But yeah, great idea Gao Gao!

     

    this is actually an interesting idea. i know i hate having to go to the lag fest that is the fleet GTN. putting it on the ship would definetly help in that regaurds as well as making it much more accessable, instead of constantly having to go back to fleet just to post a few items and head back out.

     

    they gave us all our own personal ships for a reason, why not give us a few more reasons to use it...... and for that matter why cant i get my mail on my ship?!?!?!? this isnt the 20th century damnit!!

  14. You might think that, but you'd be wrong. You'd be able to buy whatever you want, but you would never be able to make a profit on anything you sell. There's no incentive to craft/sell anything with cross-server marketplaces, because there's too much competition. That's not an active or healthy economy.

     

    You don't get to eat your cake and have it too. If you want the social benefits of a high-pop server (like a well-stocked AH), move to a high-pop server or wait for server merges. If you want to play with fewer people, accept the consequences of playing with fewer people.

     

    how do you figure this? yes you would have twice as many people posting items on the GTN by making it cross faction so you would have more competition, but you would also have twice as many people buy items off of it as well. the only true difference it would make is instead of 2 half dead markets, you would have 1 fuctional one.

     

    as many a few people have pointed out, some servers are on the low end of the population scale, combine this with population imbalances in between the factions and whatever side is lacking gets shafted. having the GTN go cross faction would make it so the state of your economy isnt based on the size of your faction but by the overall population on your server.

  15. just curious what you guys think. i kind of understand them being seperate but at the same time i think that it would help the games overall economy. i know im personally tired of going to the GTN and no being able to find anything close to what im looking for simply because theres not that much on there, and it would definetly help those servers with terrible population imbalances.

     

    plus, when i started leveling my alt with his armstech i noticed how i can make weapons that cant even be used by any class on my faction but its almost impossible to sell on the nar shadda one.
