Same here but I'm reserving judgement until I actually see what sort of games start coming out. No one really knows how this is going to affect the Star Wars games franchise at this point but consumer trust and loyalty has to count for something rather than just the quality of the games themselves. If EA manage to get this right they could start building that trust again which would be nice to see. Time will tell if they bother to do that though or if they just treat this as another cash grab like SimCity with no regard for the consumer.

Good grief, those IGN commentators are awful..

This. Really from level 1-20 I would just delete the character and start again if I didn't like the look of it... In fact, I've done this many many times already

Where are you going to use the video? If it's for Youtube you will get a copyright flag for any music from this game that is in your video, however, it won't stop you from publishing it. You will just have to acknowledge that it contains copyright material and ads will appear on the video. If you making a video to publish somewhere else.. that may be a bigger matter.

Actually Wildstar is being mad by ex WoW developers. That's why the art style is similar. Looks amazing and I'm definitely going to give it a try since it's sci-fi fantasy!!

In reality if someone is kicking you do you just lie there and let them keep on kicking you? Perhaps, but I choose to fight back and try to stop them from kicking me.

Here it is again for you then: Right here Go to 5:05 where it's stated: "It's basically the biggest NON EXPANSION PACK piece of content" And here http://www.examiner.com/article/ea-and-bioware-go-back-on-promise-to-release-makeb-free-to-subscribers

Right here Go to 5:05 where it's stated: "It's basically the biggest NON EXPANSION PACK piece of content" And here http://www.examiner.com/article/ea-and-bioware-go-back-on-promise-to-release-makeb-free-to-subscribers I knew that inane post would follow what I said so I had it ready for you. Enjoy.

Makeb was only made an expansion when F2P was announced. Before then it was always planned to be a free update. But seems people have short memories, or weren't in the game when it started.

So your saying expansions aren't content.. which makes no sense. So who is grabbing straws now?

Need to look at your own posts. I was just quoting what you said and said exactly this: And yes, subscribers have free access to all content and all new content.. Subs don't have FREE access to ALL new content, such as expansions. Your statement is false :rolleyes:

Except Makeb. :rolleyes:

I'd say I fall into this category and which is why I don't think a sub is for me. I don't do end game stuff since it seems repetitive but I like to level new characters with a couple of friends and see the storylines for them. That too can be repetitive in this game but at least there are some new elements like experiencing new class abilities and the story.

I've decided to try the game on preferred status whilst paying $9.99 a month for 1050 coins and see how that goes. If I find the limitations you describe as too frustrating then I will consider subscribing again, though that does feel like I'm just going to be paying to NOT be frustrated.. which seems odd for a game.

Not really sure why your still badgering me about this... as I stated you helped me decide and thanked you. Those other things don't interest me (titles, colors and so forth) but thank you again for your contribution.

I have already purchased most of these things. Extra character slots, Section X access and equipment authorization. I don't do space missions or pvp but have done some Ops now and then. You may be right in that subbing is not something that is worth it for me at this point, which is what I was trying to understand. Thank you.

Which validates the point that getting free coins a month means nothing when you can unlock everything you need via in-game credits. So why subscribe?

Everything can be unlocked via the GTN. You don't have to spend a single coin to get to the same status as a subscriber. I realize your trying to insult and downgrade people in your posts but that is beside the point. The only real reason to subscribe to this game is to show your loyalty to the product. It's not because it's 'better' to do so.

The base amount is only 500 for having a subscription. You may have a security key or other stuff.. not everybody is you.

Why should I pay $14.99 for two months to get 1000 coints needed to unlock Cathar when I can just be F2P and pay $9.99 once to get more than that amount at 1050 right away?

1050CartelCoins = $9.99 USD ... or be a subscriber and wait one month before we give you only 600 coins (if you have a security key otherwise you will have to wait 2 months for 1000 coins) and get Cathar for $14.99 ($29.98 if you have no key) instead. Your much better off not subscribing to the game but simply buying 1050 coins per month for $9.99. You get more coins to spend on packs which you can then just sell on the GTN to unlock all the stuff you would be getting as a subscriber.

Unique to this game is the voice acting that come with the toons. I specifically chose to pay a female Trooper because it's Jennifer Hale.. why would you want to play the male version?? I think players who are 'relating' their characters to themselves, or real life, probably need to start playing less video games and start experiencing some real life socializing for a change. It seems to me they are projecting far too much of their real life emotions and values into these games if they can't understand why someone would chose to play as different sexes in them. I mean, people roleplay as far weirder things in real life in their own bedrooms at night. And now if you'll excuse me, I need to find where I left my Scooby Doo outfit before the missus gets home.

Yay for giggle! Even though the annoying tech sound is still there along with it.

Have to agree with this. There are no real incentives to remain subbed once you have the few unlocks you need off the GTN. There needs to be some real benefit to being a subscriber, because the benefits we have at the moment are rapidly diminishing.

Woah.. 15 hours is way more than I had expected. That's pretty awesome for $10. Tomb Raider Underworld wasn't that long and I paid $89.95 for that in Australia.
