  1. I don't understand why general chat has to be turned off to begin with. Like I said earlier, I just ignore it. As in, I never read it because I know it's just full of trolls for the most part. Occasionally I'll post something to ask a question, and usually someone will whisper me a response.

     

    Very rarely I'll participate in some of the trolling because I have a dark sense of humor and it's all in good fun.

     

    The general chat in most MMOs is an all out assault on your brain, so it's best to just ignore it. But I guess I do see the point that some folks don't even want to see it on their screen at all.

     

    Edit: And to the poster above me that said general chat is doing irreparable harm to the game, just no. Quite literally every MMO in NA has a general chat that is unbelievably toxic. It's called the internet. In fact, SWTOR's general chat is way, way, WAY more tame than WoW's or many other MMOs I play with bigger popluations. This is normal. And anybody that plays MMOs knows this.

     

    I'm not saying it's right. Just that it's normal. So, what you are seeing in SWTOR you will see in any other video game, only on a much larger scale..

     

    I really can't listen to this " It's the interne t" crap anymore. It is not the internet, it is disrespectful people. And the problem is: It is "normal" .. .. I think people showing respect to each other should be "normal" not that BS that is going on in chats... across games.

     

    some people here or in other games don't even know how it was back in the day .. meridian or UO.. Anarchy online and DAoC .. there was no need to turn of any chat because you wouldn't see what you see today.

     

    if a newb asked a question , he got helped , he got answers in a matter of seconds... if you died somewhere in the world and you needed a rezz ..you would whisper a person that playes a heal character and that person would walk 5 minutes to get to you to rezz you... sometimes would even stay by your side till you finished your quests etc...

    this was a time where i met many friends where i joined my guild and today... 14 years later i am still in the same guild with mostly the same people.... and today? some people run through guilds like i run through my underwear.... and like i said before respect for others is gone.. but hey: It's the internet... again: NO its people being jerks.

  2. Always cracks me up when people play an MMO but don't like any of the MMO aspects of the game. Maybe stick to single player offline games.

     

    i used to be a peoples person and liked grouping etc ... but people changed that for me... first thing i always do in MMOs is turn off all chats, if i am ready for a group or i need to have one to complete a quest, i do it in the groupfinders... i am not here to make friends or to be social with people i don't really want to know... BUT i do like MMOs because i like seeing living worlds and an MMO will get new content, i can hop on hop off how i see it fit... and don't worry i play many single player offline games.. but mostly one play through and done, were i can spend many weeks/month/years on an MMO...

     

    your motivation of playing an MMO isn't necessarily other peoples motivation.

  3. Go to interface editor, move the circular minimap in the lower right of your screen, the toggle is beneath it.

    Move the toggle somewhere else. No, I've no idea why it was put where it was.

     

    well, thank you so much !

    sure didn't think about to use the interface editor because i didn't think they would "hide" the toggle behind something... on the other hand... i guess i should have known :D

     

    thanks again :)

  4. Can anyone tell me where i can toggle dark light allegiance?

     

    If it is that symbol on the bottom right, next to the minimap, that does nothing for me. i can't click it or toggle it and it shows dark which i never selected ...

     

    i am a bit confused how to set my allegiance.

  5. How is it a fix? It doesn't drop anything other than rep. It took me four hours just to get the Jawa junk etc. It went from 2% to 0.5%. Now I am not sure what it is. But it isn't giving anything other than useless rep items. If this is suppose to be a fix. It's a really bad joke.

     

    sorry to say, but: working as intended. i remember back in the day when people complained about drop rates being so high.... and knowing that bioware never finds a middle while nerfing things....... well.. that's what we got now....

     

    i don't think they will ever ever work an that machine again...

  6. This sentence I do not understand- WHY is it that if people like where Bioware is going with things, and likes the new stuff, they're automatically fan boys? I mean, for ****'s sake, if you're not a fan then why are you playing?

     

    Yeah, I'm a fan of SWTOR and Bioware games. It's why I'm here playing- Useless to waste my money and time on a game I don't like.

     

    Because in some peoples mind, you have to HATE changes, if they don't like em. If you do, you are a fanboy.

  7. actually , i would love to have choices that matter...

     

    I would love to have 2-3 options which gives the story a different path / outcome..

     

    something like : choose option A and it will trigger Story line A m which in itself is going to trigger different options .

     

    I think most of you know what i mean... and then some brutal choices:

     

    You are fighting alongside Theron and Lana (just an example) enemy XY pushes them of the rooftop .. .they can't barely hold on and you will only be able to save one of them... one has to die.. and i mean DIE.. no coming back, no resurrection... gone, bye bye, rip .... let's say you saved lana, she will have an forever bond with you ( i am playing a Jedi ) .. and as your actions and decisions go on throughout the story she will finally decide to give herself to the light side and become a jedi. But of course, throughout the story you will have to make many decisions that can alter the outcome.

     

    Now, if you choose to save Theron, you will face problems with sith/imperial compenions like Xalek , Drellik and so on.. they will start to doubt your actions and so on and so on... i think you guys know where i am going with this.

     

    Would be awesome...

     

    On the other hand i think, there are many people that actually don't want to have a choice that matters... because if they loose a companion with 50 influence they are going to rant about it all day long how they spent credits and gifts....

  8. Would be nice if you changed your Thread Title a bit and ad a spoiler to it.

     

    Not everyone has finished or started that chapter .I did but i think it takes some of the "fun" away if someone who didn't start or finish yet, sees a hint or a spoiler...

     

     

     

    Besides: I do not think we are going to fight along side him.. He has to be punished for what he did

     

  9. people hate Koth because he disagrees with them. People seem to be under the impression that companions should just take their word on things even when they just met said companion.

     

    "oh hey guy i just met! what's that? you say the emperor i grew up under is a big old meany even though by the standards of MY society he was a good person? Well sure! Why wouldn't I take your experiences over mine!?"

     

    Not at all, my companions can disagree as they like, but koth ...

    the moment he opened his mouth i was like "dude, i have to show you the airlock, from the outside!"

    i can't stand him. In 5 years my Jedi has not earned any dark points, but it is about to change the moment i can get rid of him. Gonna kick him out the Airlock and then use the Omnicannon on him.

  10. i am still waiting for us to be able to customize the companions (all of them) ....

    i wouldn't even mind if they slip in their original dress while in cutscene . we have so much armor, all of those collections , i would love to personalize my companions.

     

    and i would love if they could finally get rid of that annoying "companion naked in the stronghold bug"

  11. Are you talking about credits only or credits, crystals and commendations? If its just credits, whats the point really? It's as simple as mailing credits to whichever charatcer you need it on. If its crystals and commendatitons, then I can see the reasoning.

     

    you are right, it's easy.. as for me , i know how much credits my characters have +- a few credits.. my mainchar is holding all earnings. whenever i craft something with an alt etc or i sell something on the GTN, i mail the credits to my main char and leave some on my alt..

     

    but i get it that some people have like 40 chars and would like to keep track of it without having to switch through them all... so , a legacy wallet wouldn't really hurt imo .. or maybe show the credits a character is holding in the legacy family tree, next to the character profile...

  12. i have a few hundred million credits... buying crates and selling the items. had 2 unstable light sabers out of cubes last month... they sold for around 40 million each... (drop luck).. like someone said before.. that ONE item out of crates is all it takes... as for me.. i would never spend more then maybe 5 million on an item, no matter how much credits i have or how badly i want that item. i just put it on my "watchlist" and check it every day.
  13. i said it before, i actually like the chane cubes.

    remember how it was before they where introduced ?

     

    you had like 15 bronze rifles, 10 bronze blasters, 10 bronze sniper rifles and of course 20 boxes of the same bronze armor.... the cubes replaced the heavy drop of bronze items which i like more, because sometimes i get really nice items out of the cubes.. never gotten a unstable light saber out of a pack, but twice out of cubes :D

     

    that said:

     

    i agree that the chances to grab better items should be a bit higher and the drop rate of the cubes a bit lower
