[{Bug?}Jedi KNight Story quest unplayable.]

Did you try a client repair?

[New Event]

So here's my idea for the next big event, working title "Pot Luck". It's an attempt to streamline the current Spoils of War event, taking out some of the slack while retaining all of the thrill.

 

Upon entering the central area of the fleet, a player gets an additional button in their inventory, right next to the credits display. Upon pressing the button, a random amount of credits or commendations is removed from the character. If the amount removed exceeds some limit, there's a (very) low chance to obtain a mount.

 

A bit cynical? Maybe. Functionally equivalent? Hell yes!

[Welcome to Game Update 2.8: Spoils of War!]

I couldn't eat nearly as much as I'd want to throw up over the "quality" of this "event", and the update in general. This is seriously starting to make me think all those people who were accusing Bioware of blatantly ripping off the players may have been on to something

[Kartellmünzenkauf mit Paypal nicht mehr möglich ?]

Freu dich schonmal drauf, dass demnächst alle 5 Käufe durchgehen

[kommen noch events vor 2.8?]

Die Events sollen "alle" zwischen 2.8 und 2.9 nochmal laufen, im normalen Zyklus wäre davor keins mehr dran. Das nächste reguläre wäre die Kopfgeldwoche in KW 24 in der auch 2.8 erscheint wobei die letzte KGW auch eine Woche verspätet stattfand.

 

Doppel-XP und Gree sind sehr unregelmäßig (3–6 Monate, Doppel-XP meistens zu irgendwelchen Ereignissen wie US-Feiertagen oder größeren Erweiterungen), und die Rakghul-Tournee wird wohl ein Lückenbüßer dazwischen werden.

[Warzone coms - would a minimum of 100 stop you leaving games?]

thats a bit difficult maybe, you could just not buy any ccs...

 

Then no quit button for you

[Warzone coms - would a minimum of 100 stop you leaving games?]

I maintain that it should cost something like 5 or 10 cartel coins to leave a warzone.

[Schurke oder Revolverheld?]

Gegen die übliche unkoordinierte 8er PvP-Horde reicht das zumindest, mehr behaupte ich nicht

[Schurke oder Revolverheld?]

Der Schurke ist als DD ein extrem mobiler und nerviger Nahkämpfer, der aber auch dem Spieler einiges abverlangt. Probleme? Kampftarnung, 2× rollen, zwei aktive defensive Fertigkeiten mit geringer Abklingzeit. Nur wenn man halt in der Masse steht muss man sowohl die Bewegung als auch die eigene Rotation im Auge behalten. Stoffis ohne Tank sind damit sowieso weg bevor der Stun aufhört.

 

Der Revolverheld braucht als FOTM-Klasse IMAO zumindest in den "normalen" Kriegsgebieten in den meisten Fällen nicht wirklich einen fähigen Spieler, weil sie immer noch viel zu oft ignoriert werden, und der CC-Immunitäts-"Bunker" ist auch gefühlt permanent bereit. Man kann sich damit gegen zufällige Gegner irgendwo auf den Acker hocken und Rotation abfeiern. Wenn jemand zu nahe kommt hat man ja einen AE-Knockback mit gefühlten 10 Minuten Root, und danach noch einen für ein einzelnes Ziel.

[Sincere Question about MMOs and Subscription Prices]

Most likely because some marketing "brain" once decided that the amount of USD 15 (or EUR 13 or whatever) is some kind of psychological threshold above which too many customers would consider it "too much". It's basically a trade-off between the number of people paying for a product and the amount each of them pays. Such a psychological notion is much more persistent than market reality, since (1) people hate change, and (2) people tend to be pretty stupid when it comes to numbers.

[Juggs/guards are destroying WZs]

Its mostly that they have an "I can't die button" that also heals them to full.

 

It's called "Juggernaut guards Operative". With those two, you essentially end up with a pair that

• can't die unless one of them disconnects or falls asleep while facerolling,
  
• prevents all DPS from taking significant damage to their health bars,
  
• has access to decent crowd control, and
  
• is agile as ****.
  

[huge perfomance issues in pvp.]

Warzones have always been a hog, some more than others. IME, the worst offenders are Voidstar (especially at the first door) and the Makeb arena. Things also get markedly worse as you move through the PvP tiers, with level 55 PvP sometimes being nigh unplayable in those warzones. It also seems to me like some classes make things even worse, e.g., an abundance of marauders/sentinels.

[(Optional) Locking quick bars automatically in combat.]

Voted for excellence.

[3 Bugs with "Hightail It" (Gunslinger roll)]

You do know that bumping threads is violating forum rules, right?

[We will need a server wide chat channel when housing is released]

Oh Goat, the spam, it's everywhere

 

WAR had such a channel, and unless there's a horde of CSRs permanently monitoring it and immediately kickbanning spammers, I don't see anyone having it enabled for extended periods of time.

[Dye Removal Kit]

If it was priced much lower than a (or any) dye module, it would severely impact the market for dyes. It's an explicit design choice that dyes can only be used once, seeing how dye slots are the only place from which you cannot remove an add-on without destroying it.

[Wartungsarbeiten werden vielleicht angepasst....]

Also ich finde die Wartungszeiten mit meinen Arbeitszeiten gut vereinbar… wenn man die Zeiten "besser" macht, beschweren sich die Amerikaner, die Australier, oder die Schichtarbeiter.

 

Das ist ähnlich wie mit den Autobahn-Baustellen: es beschwert sich zwar "jeder" darüber, dass die in der Urlaubszeit stattfinden, aber irgendwann muss es gemacht werden, und es wird dann gemacht wenn es insgesamt möglichst wenig Betroffene gibt. Man empfindet das vielleicht anders wenn man mit 'nem quengelnden Balg im 30km-Stau hinter einem LKW mit leerem Tank steht, aber im Schnitt würde es im vollen Berufsverkehr viel mehr Opfer geben.

 

Und außerdem: wenn man es nicht aushält, dass man alle drei Wochen mal 3–5 Stunden nicht zocken kann, dann braucht man ein zweites Hobby.

[Verbally abusing players who arent good at pvp. What's the point?]

The point is to make people play PvP with the ops and ops lead chats disabled. Try it sometimes, it's a thoroughly enjoyable experience. My personal policy is to also just /ignore people after around the 3rd line of empty flaming without any content.

 

Now if only the ignore list would also automatically disable healing the affected players

[Huttball: give the ball the "hindering" debuff]

No. If people can't use techniques to evade or defend themselves, they're just fodder.

 

They wouldn't be "fodder" any more than they are now. It would mostly disable the more ridiculously overpowered abilities for the ball carrier with no downside for any other player in the warzone and no effects on anyone outside that type of game, while promoting a more dynamic style of gameplay.

[Caps lock detection is needed for game and website sign in window]

Capslock detection on a website is a PITA. Just saying.

 

AFAIK WoW circumvents the issue by having capslock-agnostic (not case-insensitive!) passwords, so if your password is "SekkRi7", then "sEKKrI7" (but not, e.g., "sekkri7") would also be valid input. That only reduces password strength by one bit, so it's not a security issue, but I'm not sure if implementing it would save enough embarrassment to be worth the effort.

[Huttball: give the ball the "hindering" debuff]

Instant effect: no more rolling with the ball, no more sage/sorc bubbling without ditching the sucker, no more accidental "oops **** wrong key" combat stealth SNAFUs, and passing becomes much more vital hopefully making the game more dynamic. The effect would be exclusive to one type of PvP match so no cross-playstyle side-effects.

[Removing PvP from SWTOR: Positive or Negative Effect]

Seeing how PvP is pretty much all I do, I'd call the effect negative. YMMV.

[Boss auf Ord-Mantell]

Von den Champions gibt es mehrere, die gehören zu einer normalen Heldenquest.

[pick a light side choice and get darkside points instead bug]

Did you maybe collect 100 light side points immediately for something, and another 100 dark side when handing in a quest later? From what you write (although it sounds like a lot of autocorrection was going on in there… "lifestyle choice" ) it sounds like you got both 100 light and 100 dark points from a single decision?

[Jar'kai Sword PvP Thread]

Wie war den der Name der Gilde

 

Wenn das der gleiche wie im Chat war, dann war der Name "Hoe's for the Empire", wörtlich übersetzt in etwa "[Diese] Gartenhacke ist für das Imperium".

 

Warum man das anstößig finden sollte ist mir auch irgendwo schleierhaft.

 

(Für alle übereifrigen: bei der horizontal orientierten Profession lässt man normalerweise das "e" weg, und der Plural wird ohne Apostroph gebildet, soviel nur am Rand. Romanes eunt domus!)
