No problem. 'Tis part of my duty here. Obvious is obvious. And a wise Dev never gives an ETA.

If you get bored waiting for in-game CSR to respond, please post a screenshot of your Quest Journal missions list as well as your current area mission description ui + area map markers ( It's very hard to remote troubleshoot on forums without seeing videos/screenshots tbqh )

aw thanks. i chose those words intentionally/ironically, since it was best way i could say what needed to be said without getting a forum *warning* . Sure would be nice if humans didn't deflect and could instead just simply read entire threads ( at least the shorter ones ) for contextual awareness before posting, but oh well it does keep things more interesting for snarky jerks like myself. Being truthful & transparent can be sorta risky & scary sometimes, but it's also a far more rewarding ( and respectful ) method of interacting with your customer$ imo. Heck for bored beta vets like me, just seeing JoeS's rare dev reply made me actually look forward to what was otherwise a very lackluster SWTOR patch.

May the Post(s) directly above yours ^^ serve YOU.

./facepalm , i can't believe i didn't recall her phrase'ing ugh, i really have been here in SWTOR realm far too long if i didn't even remember that. i deserve to be temp-banned into Suggestion Box section for 24 hours. So sorry @JoeStramaglia and i shall make this up to Lana on the pending *Date Night* !!

hi @JoeStramaglia, THANKS so much for the info and obviously it's always nice to see actual DEV ( coder ) posting here on these official forums; especially nowadays with SWTOR's current perplexing EAxistence. Anyways, please could you ( or someone at BioSword ) offer us GSF pilots some semblance of *hope* that u guys might actually spend one dev cycle on GSF expansion? ( it hasn't been paid any significant attention since around 2018 , which means one half of 'STAR Wars' is totally ignored in a game about Star Wars. ) hmm, i've never heard anyone say that ^ with the word "Serve" instead of the traditional "BE with" version. Any particular reason for the change?

Here's the actual link with official info--> https://forums.swtor.com/topic/933982-game-update-741-building-a-foundation-coming-march-12th/ for those people who don't spend much time on these forums yet are still following this SV thread.

Someone else already used that duh-dum-cha joke earlier--> https://forums.swtor.com/topic/933950-welcome-to-march-when-is-the-741-update-sv-transfers-and-new-gs-starting/?do=findComment&comment=9802862 And i already provided the link above--> https://forums.swtor.com/topic/933950-welcome-to-march-when-is-the-741-update-sv-transfers-and-new-gs-starting/?do=findComment&comment=9802891 which shows they had already posted date before your belated attempt at "humor" . smh

Yeah, how 'bout it? --> https://forums.swtor.com/topic/933982-game-update-741-building-a-foundation-coming-march-12th/

Funny because i feel the same way about YOUR impatient posts toward BioSword. Regardless, you're free to post however you want. ( within rules ) I'm free to REPLY to your posts however i want. ( within same rules ) Forums 101. No one is "gatekeeping" anyone here.

OwenBrooks already told you --> https://forums.swtor.com/topic/931517-fizzy-voss-grass-texture/?do=findComment&comment=9782603 Maybe just keep waiting? You know, the same way i keep waiting since 2018 for ANYONE at BioSword to commit Dev resources toward significant GSF expansion.

That's because it isn't a bug in code. It's another example of the *de-sync* YOU are having, which causes your game client version of the 'corpse' to de-sync from the server's Z-axis terrain detection. ( see how it's on a HILL side? ) Doesn't matter how many times you spam "reports" . It won't ever get fixed , because it's a problem with the nature of Online MMOs + the original SWTOR 'Hero' game-engine. Also, please reply to your other thread--> https://forums.swtor.com/topic/933891-loading-screen-from-h3ll-continues/?do=findComment&comment=9802173 just in case you might have something worthy to help the DEV Team.

Bingo ^ yep. However , in their defense ( since i personally SOLO queue 95% of my playtime for WZ's and probably more like 50% for Arenas ) , you have to also remember there is a large segment of legit casual$ who understandably have limited schedules + waning interest; and therefore can't really commit to a weekly planning of consistant hardcore teams. Furthermore, because there's not much else to do in SWTOR "endgame" , many people like me enjoy SOLO queue'ing just to test other ALT Classes with various templates & rotations & such. Not that easy to experiment when you have a group ( friends or Fleet-randos ) relying upon your focused heals or damage/tank numbers. QFE ^ such a great analogy! Don't expect certain types of PvPouters to ever listen though. This is what happens when you attract seasonal Fortnite-freeloaders into SWTOR after BioWare painted themselves into a code corner with conflicting Combat-styles, which then caused their skeleton Dev crew to just hastily throw out the Ranked baby with the "toxic" bathwater. It's possible BioSword could have enough metrics ( population ) to warrant splitting the queues again if/when they merge ALL the servers into one giant 'cloud' megaserver. Until then, however, there doesn't seem to be enough players to fill 2 separate queues anymore sadly.

It was indeed mentioned here --> https://forums.swtor.com/topic/931783-74-gtn-preview-live-on-pts/page/5/#comment-9784332

Yes i'm aware, since, as i already mentioned earlier above in this very same thread, i'm currently playing 'Jedi: SURVIVOR' right now. ( truly superb game btw , in my opinion ) i never said anything about having Mandos as "playable class" though. All i said was: somehow combine/incorporate 'Mando' stuff into the new JEDI game, since some of that 'Mando' game Dev Team is being re-assigned. Exactly. Hence why i mentioned the possibility of somehow merging the 2 games. Obviously, it would have to "make sense" . Sheesh. eh i dunno, they're already doing a "bad GIRL" game here--> https://www.starwars.com/news/star-wars-outlaws Plus i mean, the original 'Force Unleashed' game did pretty well actually. ( the 2nd one was awful )

uhh, they do a lot more than just "publish" --> https://answers.ea.com/t5/General-Discussion-Technical/bd-p/star-wars-the-old-republic-en Did you even read the link and entire article ? Yeah it's very odd , but maybe by some miracle they will somehow combine/incorporate the 'Mando' stuff into the 3rd JEDI series game ( sequel to 'Survivor' ) . Also makes me wonder what the heck is going on with--> https://www.starwarseclipse.com/ as well.

hi NeoBlakkrstal , i sympathize with your frustrations but actually what you're experiencing is better known as a connectivity *de-sync* ( from the server ) . Not a "bug" in game CODE. You may want to check with your own ISP ( Internet Service Provider ) , as well as double-check your Firewalls & Windows priorities relating to running SWTOR. In the meantime, if you have a moment, please answer the following important questions ( details ) ... Which SERVER are you on? Are you playing thru 'STEAM' or thru the regular game Launcher? How long were you logged into SWTOR prior to getting that stuck 'spinning' loadscreen? Were you frequently alt-tabbing between other programs ( or browsers ) at all before/during your SWTOR game session at all? Do you swap between different characters & servers often during your typical SWTOR game sessions? Have you by chance searched *EA Tech Support* section, including possibly related topics like here: https://answers.ea.com/t5/General-Discussion-Technical/SWTOR-loading-screen-stuck/td-p/5237948 *In case there is indeed something code related triggering your loadscreen fail , those ^ questions will help BioSword to backtrace server logs.

i hate to be the bearer of bad news here....but, UGH--> https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/digital/video-game-giant-ea-layoffs-1235839026/ *This is probably also not exactly the best news for Electronic Arts' running of SWTOR either tbh. ( Also makes me wonder what Disney is up to with their "future" SW game. Obviously, my hope is for SWG-2 or at least another SW MMO. )

Exact same can be said about YOU too. Adapt or un-sub. Simple as that. lol "everyone else" , eh? You mean the 2 or 3 people left posting in the thread? GSF certainly isn't "dead" on STAR FORGE server. But these forums def. are.

That's literally what i just stated in my post lol Amazing.
