  1. I will be really annoyed if BW start allowing AC respecing. I've got several characters with the same class but different ACs. I'm already pushed to my limit with this game, allowing this would push me overboard and off the SWTOR ship for good.
  2. To avoid people stealing your account, you could transfer ownership of the account to a new email address whilst logged in as the owner. Just have the process require a reentry of the password and Bioware will not be liable at all for any damage as it would be the account owners fault for leaving his/her password exposed.
  3. It's like trading in your old games when you're done with them. I'm sure lots of game companies are now quite annoyed, but they make enough money so I'm not too bothered about them losing some of it.
  4. Why don't forum mods merge threads together instead of closing them? It would make lots of thread creators who get their thread closed feel less like they've just been ignored by Bioware. It's a bit more complicated than just checking a box to close the thread, but the forum moderation ability exists within vBulletin.
  5. What about new class quests in the game after expansions and patches? Some class quests can't just be started at level 50 onwards, as you will have contacts and allies who will be acting like your friends which will make no sense if you never completed the original content.
  6. Bioware have already started banning people for hacking. I do remember reading that the SWTOR anti-cheat software was not enabled and that people could really do whatever they wanted although this has never been confirmed. It's very easy to manipulate the game, especially the parts which are processed client side however the servers could detect things like this and automatically kick and ban players... unfortunately Bioware has either chosen not to hire programmers who know enough about security or else have just chosen to leave the security part out of the game.
  7. I would too like this, however I see two main problems: Development: This would be far too difficult to implement, with class stories and abilities etc. It would take at least a year (maybe more depending on the dev's skills) to analyze, design and implement a system to achieve this. Players going mad: It would completely ruin the whole concept of this game if players were on both factions five times a day. Defection would need to be a one time event to stop the game getting out of control.
  8. I think it would be much more fun (and realistic) to have my companion ride alongside me in a mount. It feels like my companion is a pokemon who just goes into a little ball to be put into my pocket whilst I travel and then comes back out when I arrive at my destination. Would also be nice to see larger mounts suitable for holding friends and their companions, or even a group!
  9. I've been quite happy with the game graphics actually, and I'm normally hard to please. I would like to see some things changed of course, however for the most part I'm quite happy with the graphic quality. I am running everything on maximum settings though, it makes a huge difference.
  10. I was extremely angry at Bioware for all the maintenance they were doing, however I would be happier getting assurances that everything is now working fine and that there will be no more emergency maintenance 3 or 4 times a week. I don't care about getting free time, as long as the time I paid for allows me access to the game.
  11. Can someone just clarify this for me please... I already transferred all my characters to a destination server. Does this mean I'll get the rewards even though I transferred weeks ago?
  12. I think at level 50, players should be given the ability to change their companions. There are some companions on my main that I really do not like, and as a Darth, I would be quite happy to flush them out the airlock because they just irritate me so I wish I didn't have to tolerate them. Maybe a system where you could evict, kill or have your companions arrested would be good and then you get a holo call from Mr/Mrs X saying that there are some people who have expressed interests in joining your team. I understand the whole companion story lines etc etc but I would like to see a system where we (the players) can decide what companions we have and which companions should be kicked out.
  13. Haha! That's a brilliant way to describe how he runs. Definitely not very Jedi like. I'll just play Smuggler instead
  14. So I made a new character today, a Jedi Knight. After a few minutes I found myself running with my weapon out and I think he looked really stupid, needing two hands to hold a lightsaber. I already have a Sith Assassin, Sith Juggernaut and a Jedi Sage and have never had a problem before but I decided to delete the toon and make a Smuggler instead. Does anyone else think the Jedi Knights running animation is a little stupid? I would prefer him to run the way Obi-Wan Kenobi runs as he tries to catch up to Qui-Gon and Darth Maul. He's running quite fast and holding the lightsaber in one hand. It looks much more smooth and doesn't look as though he's struggling to carry the lightsaber.
  15. So because you are too lazy to read all the times, you'd prefer them to list only yours?
  16. I have unsubbed now. I would urge everybody else to do the same until Bioware learn their lesson.
  17. I'd imagine a lot of Bioware employees will be sent packing once shareholders see how many subs they are losing due to the inability to organize maintenance, manage the game and even listen to customers who warned them NOT to deploy 1.3.
  18. I still think Bioware should donate $5000 to charity every time the servers go down for unscheduled maintainable. Of course my "suggestion" was locked by customer services even though it violated no rules. I've lost out on 3 nights this week, I renewed my sub 3 days ago and haven't been able to play since. I'm phoning CS to ask for a refund now.
  19. I'm not trolling. I'm a customer who thinks Bioware needs to be a bit more responsible when dealing with their servers.
  20. I am patient, but I'd like Bioware to accept responsibility. When a shop is closed they don't make any money, why should SWTOR be any different?
  21. I think Bioware should donate (at least) $5000 to charity when any of the following occur: Unscheduled maintenance Maintenance (scheduled or otherwise) is cancelled without 48 hours notice The servers experience downtime that was unexpected due to technical problems I think at the moment, whoever is deciding when things like this happen have no consideration for the customers that play this game. Maybe if Bioware have a $5000 penalty every time something like this happens, they wouldn't be so quick to start screwing customers over and deciding at the last minute what to do with the servers. I don't think $5000 is much to ask, for every 4 hours downtime Bioware has been paid 5 pence from customers to play for those 4 hours which we don't get anyway. Give all the subscription money for that four hours to charity and at least that way, customers will know that when you bring the servers down for an "emergency" it really is an emergency and not some last minute half cocked decision which will later be canceled, and then reinstated and then God knows what else. I was told there was emergency maintenance on the 28th, then it was cancelled, then I was kicked off the servers and they went down anyway... Unacceptable Bioware. Give money to charity every time something like this happens so that we know you are accepting responsibility when mistakes are made and its not just your customers losing out!
  22. I was under the impression BW fixed any problems on the PTS BEFORE releasing this. I'm wondering why they are now having to fix things that went live.. surely it shouldn't have gotten this far.
  23. I really hope its something absolutely essential, because the servers were down when I woke up and were still down when I went to work five hours later... now they're doing it all over again in the morning... I miss my SWTOR mornings.
