Unfortunately this is the case for WOW, and wow clones where the game is easy to level on quest rewards and crafting is extremely easy. Try some harder mmorpg's and you will find that is not always the case. Sometimes it all comes down to whether it was a crit-crafted or normal.

All that 2 people of the opposite faction have to do is have a "duel" near your companion hitting it with a aoe. When your companion retaliates you get flagged for pvp.

Eariler today I was playing on a PVE server fighting a few mobs when a person of the other faction came by me jumped off of their speeder and aoe the mobs I was fighing to get on my companions hate list. Soon as it happened I quit fighting and before I could put companion on passive, yep it attacked the other person, flagging me for pvp. If that is not harassment and griefing i don't know what is. This was supposed to be fixed in 1.2. It wasn't and people continue to grief others because "THEY CAN' they know BW will do nothing to them. Even better is the response from BW: I am Protocol Droid A0-K9, Human-Cyborg Relations. We are sorry to hear that you have encountered issues during Player versus Player (PvP) gameplay. While we can understand that actions such as those you have reported may seem dishonourable or unfair, we would like to remind you that PvP servers are specifically designed to allow for open combat between players of opposing factions. In the case of Outlaws’ Den on Tatooine, the game allows for combat against anyone, regardless of faction. An on-screen warning advises players who select a PvP or RP-PvP server of the consequences of this choice, and as a result our Customer Service team will not intervene or assist in resolving any PvP encounters or situations that take place on a dedicated PvP server. If you are playing on a PvP server and are experiencing difficulties with PvP encounters we would generally recommend that you ask your friends, guild mates or fellow players to assist you in the battle. If you are on a PvP server, and feel that conversations in PvP chat, general chat or whispers have gone beyond the generally accepted ‘smack talk’ of competitive gaming, then please see http://www.swtor.com/support/helpcenter/1880 (You can check your IRL email for a clickable link) for information on how to report this as harassment. If you are not on a PvP server and have activated your PvP flag, you can reverse this by going back to a zone controlled by your faction, right-clicking your character portrait on-screen and selecting the option to toggle PvP off. Please note that once you have toggled your PvP status off, it will take 5 minutes for the change to take effect and the status to be removed. If you require further assistance with this or any other issue, please do not hesitate to contact us again. Galactic Support is our Specialty...

My only issue with credits is the cost of moving mods from one set of gear to another. Without cosmetic gear slots, I keep changing gear around and at 22k a mod it adds up fast.

I want harpoon back, Corso usually pulled the mob so it was in position fo me to do my stuff from the rear:D Now Corso goes flying to the mob and by the time my body type 4 sawbones gets to the mob I am exhausted. BW sure did suck a lot of fun out of this game with 1.2.

Hmmm, NO, it is working as intended and BW wants to suck the fun out of this game.

I am not to sure about the new schematics. However, the old ones have on tool tip right-click to reverse Engineer and then when try to reverse engineer it get the message "That item cannot be reverse engineered". Either it is a bug or BW found a new way to stick it to crafters.

Welcome to the modern mmo community: Don't ask questions in game, look it up online.

For the best suggestion of the year, I should flag you so that at least somebody in BW will read your thread. However, that person would probably find your thread offensive and remove it.

I am very happy with this patch. With this patch I now now that for me, crafting is dead and there is really nothing to do in spare time here. With each patch, nerfs and misleadings, and patch 1.2 was the patch to fix all. Now if I could just get a refund on my sub, I would be extremely happy.

Nothing new here, every "craft" has always had items that npc's items were buyable and better.

Lol, its a gathering skill argument. Hmm, why does a scavenging (gathering skill) rich mission that costs 2025 credits yields 12,800 credits worth of materials?

Finally got a crit on mission "Mysterious Funds" got two shematics for augments (one for armormech the other armsmech) Got the armor one re into a purple, which requires 4 advanced neural augmentor, only got 3 of them on the crit mission. These are going to end up being very expensive to make. Has anyone got new materials from the onetime 340 missions?

So what is the purpose of slicing missions now? Just for fast skilling up? Can skill up fast enough on world lockboxes. Running a rich scavenging mission for 2025 credits will yield materials worth 12,800 credits.

The planet I was on today had 9 people at most, a few times it dropped down to 7. On that HUGE planet I never did see any of the other 8 people, could not even /wave to anyone. The other day rerolled on another server (the fatman), it had lots of people, so many people that it felt like a mmo and not a single player game. Now I think it has Zero population.

Picture or it didn't happen

I see no reason why BW should be given a pass at all, BW released swtor earlier than first announced. BW was happy with it's product enough to release it early, they should get no free pass.

I agree with the OP, many things were left out of the game for its premature launch. I know no reason why I should pay MY money for what other games already have. In all "honesty" these forums are more entertaining than the actual game.

Depends...

Please don't give false information, entering or leaving your ship does not reset your missions.

People play P2P games to have a bug free game experience. Mmo's have bugs, most mmo's hot fix bugs within hours of a patch to fix the bugs, not wait over NINETY DAYS to fix bugs. If you don't mind BW lowering the standard of a P2P mmo then you will continue to support and defend them for their bug infested game. I would rather pay a company that fixes bugs in a timely manner.

Happens to me often, it is sad that three months after this game came out this bug and numerous other bugs still exist. I guess BW does not realize that this is not a single player game that they can release a patch whenever they feel like it. People play a P2P mmo to have a bug free game experience.

Keep up the whining, starting new unnecessary threads, and BW will cave in and change it so that you will be able to change your class. Since the beginning of this games release a short time ago, BW has shown that they will cave in to whiners. You go bro, make it your goal, get the game changed, get BW to change the game for you.

Nothing in the Patch notes that I could find about a change to crafting. Either you are having a bad run of the rng or trolling.
