  1. A while back, i read that they where going to change conquest a bit, because there weren't as many people doing conquest, as they wanted. So i thought id give my perspective on the matter, as a player. I'll start of by saying I have been doing conquest lately, but I think ill stop again, as i don't really feel im getting enough out of the time i have to invest in it. I might change my oppinion again. But here goes. 1. The reward: The rewards you get seems to be for people who craft. I haven't bothered much with crafting so the rewards didn't have much value for me. I recently startet doing a little crafting, which is why i did do conquest again. But with the amount of mats i need, i have to do conquest with alot of chars each week, so its proberly just easyer for me to buy the mats. Then there is the achivement's. I have already gotten the onces you get for doing the various conquest types: titants of industry, death mark etc. But the guilds im in aren't that big so we don't have a short for the nr. 1 spot, so i can't get those achivements either. This week i think we got to second place (atleast when i looked) and we only had ½ the number of points as the number 1 spot (we had 1.2 million when i looked, they had 2.4). 2. Another reason is I burned myself out with them, because i did it with way to many chars. I could of couse have saved some time if I had bothered with decoration my stronghold, but that requires decorations and some time, if you wan't them to look nice, and not just add stuff randomly. I visited some random persons stronghold, and you could just see it was just decorated to increase the persons conquest points % gain. It had speeders in the hallway. This brings me to the point of strongholds. I find them dead and boring. They are practical, but that is about it. Who actualy spends time in them, besides RP'ers. There is nothing to do in them. When i beta testet Wildstar (im just using this as an example, so no flaiming or say I should go play that. I don't (for now) play Wildstar, im using it as an example to show more can be done with them), it had some jumping thing. Where, if you reaced the spot you needed to, you get a reward. What the game also had (of what i saw in a video) you could get portals to the various raids, and you would get a buff, if you used it. Im not saying if such a portal was added, it should give a buff, but it would be nice if they were more then a place, just to go and drop off/get some stuff. And the more stuff you had in your house, in your plot, the more rested xp you would get, when you sleept (was afk/logging of while you where in it). Then there is the future of conquest. With the change of HC's its going to be harder/take longer to get the points. A big reason I bothered with conquest, was because that you could get a decent amout of points, and a little fast, by doing HC's. With the comming expansion, that is not going to be the case. As i said earlyer, the guilds im in, dosen't have that many players, and they aren't that active. Plus i normaly play doing the earlyer hours of the day, where there are even fewer online. That will make a pain for me, just to do the HC's. So with the way HC's are being changed, I doubt i will do much conquest, when they activate it again after the expansion has been released. And i know that you get some mats by doing it, that is required for some crafting gear, but as I said, i don't do much crafting, or bother to much with endgame gear. And i can emagin that with the HC change, others will also stop doing conquest.
  2. this is going to ruin conquest. Part of conquest was that you could gain points by doing some hc's fast. Now it will just not be worth it
  3. I really hope the add/added this: http://dulfy.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/swtor-datamined-items-outer-rim-explorer-pack-6.jpg
  4. The video looks awesome, and when i first heard/saw it, i got exitet about it, and thought it might rekindle my will to play this game. I still look forward to the expanion, but after i read that there will be no more class missions, and the class will only have a slight effect, i fear this expanion will be like the rest, and offer very little in replay ability. This expanion might have a little more than the other expanions, but i doubt it will be enough for that many. I can emagin there are quite a bit of people with about 8 classes, because they wanted to try the different stories, just as i did. I have still only leveled 6 of my 8 chars to max level. Worked a bit on the 7th, but it just so boring. I fear the next expanion will be the same.

  6. First of, this is my personal opinion. Some might agree and some won't. I have been here since beta/pre-release, and have leveled one of each classe (8 chars). When Makeb was added, it took me quite some time, to bother leveling all my chars, because there where no divecity in the process. When you had done one faction quest chain, it would be the same again. The reason I have 1 of each class, is because of the class story's. now with the latest expanion, there isnt even a difference in the faction missions and story. The only difference is a few cutscenes, and a single class mission that takes about 5 mins, which could have been much longer, considering how they did the original class missions. I feel partial forced to do both rishi and yavin 4, just so i can get the class mission, and level my chars. The process is just so mind-numbingly boring. I have leveled 6 of my chars to 60, and worked on a 7th, but I just can't get my self to it, because it is so boring. And it is not if i havent had the time. It feels more like a job. I get the creating class missions is alot more work, but going to easy path is a bad idea. There are so many mmo's out there. It makes me think of some of those motivation videos "If you won't put in the work, someone else will". If they arent planning on creating more class missions, then atlease give us different leveling areas, like there is in every other mmo. If they create another expanion like this, i will be completely convinced that they donøt care about the players, and think of us as fools, and i guess that would make me cancel my subscribtion. I am thinking about it now. I have just put so much time and quite a bit of money into the game, and i have played if for so long. Its the mmo I have played the longest... And its Star Wars
  7. There have been some talk about, basic commendations are pretty much pointless. What about some decorations that you buy with basic, elite, ultimate commendations. There are already those you can buy with pvp commendations
  8. I think it is a bad idea. Then it becomes like some other mmo, where it is about picking the right race for the right profession/class, and people would ask for free changes of race. I like how i could/can make a char, without having to think about what race is the best for the class.
  9. damn the drop rate for those data packet is a joke. I have spent about 2½ hours, and i only managed to get 1 of them. I find it ridicules that I have to spend so much time to get achivements (I also do it for the stats, but the achivements is a big part of it), that I should already have. But due to bioware not being able to implement anything without it bugged, people who had done it, when those datacrons where added, lost the various achivements that involved getting them. I find it "funny" how they can punish people for cheating a little, but when we waste our time, nothing happens. And how much time havent the players wasted due to their bugs. How many times havent players wiped in operations due to bugs... double standards. I guess bioware gives a rats-"butt" about the players, as long as they keep paying for the game.
  10. funny how people are only not enjoying the game when they are losing. just had the same person leave pvp matches, 2 times in a row. But it wasnt until we where sure we where losing. And this is not about elitism, i don't like elitism, its about selfish kids who arent mature enough to handle a lost fight
  11. The lower fald of the Exumed headgear. It looks so nice with a hood on. Unfortunet the cap piece (or some of the top) of it, will stich through the hood. Same with the antenna thing on the ear. And on top of the head, there are also some places it goes through http://i61.tinypic.com/23kdgeg.jpg
  12. Ha ha , i like your "I CAN KILL STUFFF!!!!!" gave me a smile But guess some people cant enjoy PvP, if they aren't winning. It can be in the start of a wz, as soon as we get a little behind, a leaver or 2. In most wz's where we get behind, are losing, seem to lose, there are leavers
  13. I do get the point of people sabotaging it
  14. But i guess it just shows what kind of persons bioware caters to. I can't mention what type they are, as they might cause a warning...
  15. Never said this was wow, just said how i recall it worked in another game, to show that it could be done in another way. I also startet out, with not mentioning it at all. I did mention in case i remembered wrong, as it has been years since i played it, and if i was wrong, someone might correct me. And just because that is how it works in tor, doesnt mean that is how it would have to work here.
  16. it has nothing to do with elitism. It is about the selfish people ruining it for others. I have done mistakes and said "my bad", and we moved on. I have seen people say it is their first time in the ops, fp, as tank etc
  17. what a sad person would do that. And if you figure that out, you ignore them back. the feature dosent have to show all the names of the chars you are ignoring. I recall in wow, you just ignore the account, that was it. It was only if you added friends through account, that you would know all their chars. I have the feeling that those that dont want it, are the onces that know they are going on ignore lists. Ninjas, leavers etc
  18. It would be nice if you could ignore an entire persons account/legacy with your entire legacy/account. I'm certain it can be done, as I recall they have/had it in another mmo, years ago
  19. sometimes people have to learn. And if it is the bad things, people can kick. I can see people pvp when the match was almost over. I have seen people leave FP's because of 1 wipe that was a mistake (at times their own)
  20. Something seriously needs to be done with the leavers of PvP and pve. I know you can put them on ignore, i just dont feel like that is enough. They affect the game in a negative way, for other platers. I get that you leave a fp if you constantly wipe or after alot of them. But after 1 or 2 wipes. Come on. Sometimes people makes a mistake. I just had a pvp match, where 1 left just shortly before it was over, just because we where losing in the end. Its not the end of the world to lose or wipe a little
  21. I would like to see the: Rishi maze pummeler's MK-2 chestguard, with a hood. It is the same as Massassi pummeler's mk-1 chestguard, just without those things on the shoulder. And with a prober hood. The one on the massassi, with a helmet oh, the helmet will go through the hood, in the top
  22. it wont let me pres the panels fast enough. I press as just as i reach it, but because of biowares retarded implementions, i cant do it. Because of some retarde "activation time" I just end up dying, even though i use heroic moment.
  23. Im curious if people have been able to get the onces from Ilum, Makeb and Corellia? Is it me that is unlucky, or have been Bioware just done what Bioware does, and give the datacrons with the fewest options of dropping (atleast when it goes to the one on Makeb and Ilum), the lowest chance of dropping?
  24. What i read and did, with the quest datacrons, was go to the planet and buy the crates ( cant recall their names, but they cost like 8 or 10 commendations. There are 2 variations, and its the one that cost the most.) But it has to be from the mercent on the planet, you buy it, not from the fleet
  25. I think it is funny how they are able to "fix" the slotmachine what was working as intended, right away. But are sure taking their time/having issues with increasing the loot drop in the new operations. I doubt very much that it can be harder to do
