Last night there was literally one tank queuing. (me). I dropped from a group for various reasons and got the exact same group on the group finder for the next hour. Eventually I ignored the healer and got another group almost instantly.] So not enough tanks for sure.

Just wait until the rest of the population actually catch up and I'm sure there will be plenty of people doing the quests. I know I never have any trouble getting a group for the Section X heroic.

I think the cap on high ranking commendations is ok, it's the planetary/classic ones that shouldn't be capped.

Add +10 to the GMT time (+9.5 for South Australia). Pretty easy to convert.

I hope people read the fine print at the end of the trailer and aren't confused by the giant flashing "PLAY FREE NOW" part.

Well if it wasn't done at that time then everyone playing the game in Europe and Asia wouldn't get to play RotHC this weekend. As it is that means the game will be down from 3pm to 5pm for me, so I get to play the expansion on Sunday night... which is better than nothing.

What is it exactly about the pvp that is frustrating you? Can you not work out how to remove your gear to run free and naked around the PvP area? Naked PvP actually seems pretty balanced it's just naked vs. clothed where there is a problem.

A better question would be why is every male Twi'lek in the game a fatty? Especially male Twi'lek smugglers for some reason.

I think most people understand that. It does seem a little mean to release it on a Sunday though which means most people in the world won't really get time to play until the next weekend... well except those nolifers with no jobs, but most of them will already have been in early access. Personally, I might get an hour or two late Sunday night, then I have to work Monday-Friday, then I have next Saturday to play then I'm away on a business trip for 3-4 days so in two weekends time I might have time to sit down and actually play through.

Very unlikely to actually get something useful though. I've run couple of dozen now and only got a couple of upgrades over my tionese gear.

I think it would be better if you could still level to 55 without having to buy the expansion. But apart from that I see no issue with charging $10 for the new planet.

I have 2 level 50 character, both who got there in the past month thanks to the 2x xp weekends. On my assassin I have 4 pieces of gear I've got from flashpoints (chest, legs, earpiece, and helm) and one (offhand) that I've bought with commendations. As I see it the current best way for the level 50 character to gear up is to run hard mode flashpoints over and over for the new drops, it's especially good if you are a tank. Then use commendations to fill in pieces. The flashpoint gear has similar stats to the commendation gear, but lacks any set bonus.

It is low, but you can do it on multiple characters. So cap one, move to the next character and cap that.

Interesting, so they are.

Playing my scoundrel healer I did a 5.6K crit last night (and a 7.4K heal as well) which means I'm getting a lot more dps medals than I used to.

Yes did this myself, had 28,900K life and 58.5% pvp damage boost.

Well just tested running naked with a gun with no mods in it. Clothed with bolster I have 20500 life and 53% pvp damage boost Naked with bolster I have 23600 life and 59.31% pvp damage boost The only thing that is lower is my armor rating.

Hmm, well I'm going to take off my gear and see what happens.

If you take the shuttle to Section X you can catch a shuttle from there to Belsavis I think. At least that's the way it appeared to me, I didn't try it however.

The individual starship hangers? Because I can't see it.

Yes there is a 2nd part of the patch. It's about 3 gig all up. Took me approx 1.5 hours to download and install.

I'm in South Australia and I'm getting around 650 kb/s most of the time. It's not running as fast as it could, but its ok. How big is the patch by the way? I've downloaded the first 2.3 gig part and I'm nearly done with the 2nd part (around 500mb I believe).

So people are 55 already, big f-ing whoop-dee-doo.

Certainly good finder tonight doesn't seem to be getting any bites (as a healer). 2 hours without finding a group so far. And as I say that I get a group.... always the way isn't it.
