Since this is the only part I can remotely consider myself to counter with any decent knowleadge I will... Honestly, this is the same for any game with a level up system and PvP, me and most of my friends PvP from level 10 to 50 if playing a new class while questing, why? Because getting used to killing mobs in PvE and players in PvP are very different, and as such I need to learn how to do both. Leveling PvE for 49 levels and then complaining that you suck in pvp, well there is no suprise there, you got 0 experiance, of course you will have a bad time. Also on another note, if you play an MMO and expect not to repeat content over and over again, then you're in for a baaaad time, that is the nature of the beast, there is no way developers can put out fresh content at a rate that nothing is repedative

Why I left? I left because my friends got back into WoW and I wanted to play with them, and most of the people I played with back around the inital sub drops left because of similar reasons. This game is stable, as of right now the only bug I've ever experianced is warzones not finishing properly, 2 times, in over 5 months, also not being able to unify colors on my companion, thats it. Im sitting on a 350 euro rig, its no beast, and I can still on custom settings mixed between low and high run this on 90 FPS, lagspikes I only get when Im trying to watch videos and play at the same time, but that is cus of my horrible internets. Try out The Secret World, that is a horribly unstable game for you. This game runs smooth as hell compared to alot of other MMOs, The only ones I've played that can compete are the other bigs, namely WoW, GW2 and RIFT. Also, just for your information this is currently the 2nd largest MMO in terms of active users after WoW, so drop the ******** doomsaying already, the game has no more issues than any other MMO out there.

This is the 2nd largest subscription based MMO after WoW, I know... Crazy right? But its true, despite all the doomsday and crap about this game, its still in 2nd place with rift and gw2 following behind. So yeah.. the few diehards, might be hard for you to grasp but me and my friends actually play this game because its fun, not the story, not the setting, but the gameplay feels fun.

Sorry for double post, but seriously dont let the door hit you on the way out, I've played since launch and not once have I had a gamebreaking bug, all the minor stuff I've run across exists in pretty much every other MMO out there. And the Life Day stuff? Every single F2P game I've ever played relase cosmetic ******** around the holidays for real cash. But yeah, an in-game event would be nice for people who like that kind of stuff, I dont however

Oh for the love of... I really hope you're being sarcastic! The mentality that you need a reward for your gameplay is what is wrong with people today, its a GAME not your work, you play it for fun. What did you get out of playing super mario? Nothing, the game and character is the same strenght, start to finish and yet its still a very popular game and franchise, or... Call of Duty, FPS games, there is no reward besides the stat screen. Or the myriad of people playing GW2 PvP, sure you get new looks and armors, but the strenght is the same. I PvP for fun, I truly enjoy PvP in this game. Gear is a nice bonus, but its far from the reason I play PvP, anyone who plays PvP just to get gear to own "noobs" probably should look for other venues... Like dynasty warrior games, there you butcher thousands, and if you say its not the same because they're not real people that can feel the shame of defeat, then you my dear sir are on twisted person

Basicall it dawned on me today, it would of course be on the level of an expansion due to all the new content etc that'd be needed. But yeah classes are actually really easy to solve, no new ones, just mirrors of the existing ones. Now I know, but jedi and sith are bound to their factions! Ofc they are, but you can make a similar class without force powers no problems. Sith Warrior/Jedi Knight - > Blademaster, uses vibroblade and heavy armor along with some nifyt wristmounted gadgets to take care of the force powers, grappling wire, cryo etc, most animations already exists they just need some altering. Inquisitor/Consular - Techsavant, uses electrostaffs, have ion generators, explosives, shield tech etc, seismic charges, I could make out each ability and its new version but that'd take forever, Im just showing that logically it would work. As for bounty hunter and agent mirrors, there are a gazzillion possibilities and no real need for specifics

" - Abuse or exploit bugs, undocumented features, design errors or problems in the game. " Right there, in the terms of use, EULA, whatever you want to call it. This is a design error/ Undocumented feature So yes, they are breaching the terms.

this is my experimental spec, its doing OK... Im still getting used to it, one thing I can say tho. I have a hell of alot more moveability and adapbility than I used to have running this one. The mechanics are easy, instant casts and lightning barrage has priority, fill with lightning strik/crushing darkness/force lightning as you yourself please, if they interrupt your channel, well guess what? Lightning strike is buffed up and usable. http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#201ZbsbrdRbhZcrzRsMz.2 But as I said, it is very much so experimental and in early stages, but it might work well for someone else as well, I usally dont share this stuff, or read other peoples builds for that matter... kinda want to find my own path, but as I dont feel that I suck in pvp, I thought I'd pitch in.

Okay seriously, Bioware / EA, THAT GUY, the guy who wrote this, should be running your cash shop, he would make you billions!

Please ignore this sad person who hates on a game he is paying for, I havent seen him post a single constructive post, ever. Complaints are fine, but atleast back them up with some semblance of intelligence.

Please, PLEASE go to work as a game tester, programmer or game developer and then try to get it right in the first place. Even if a patch works perfectly in small scale, its impossible to know what might happen once you go large scale, its just the nature of code, at times it even feels devoid of logic! Oh, and this all at the same time while having your consumers yelling at you what a horrible job you're doing... No wonder bioware hardly replies on the forums anymore.

Dark and light is NOT about serving the empire or republic, its about morals, dark choices are always morally "wrong" and light choices are correct. Killing someone is dark, regardless of whom he is, lying is dark, etc... You dont seem to grasp what the system is based on at all

Im sorry what region are you in?... I came back about a month or so before f2p went on, not once did I see anything below standard besides 4-6 am in the mornings, in fact during the day most servers were heavy or full

I had a perfectly valid argument, but my entire post seems to have just been ignored by you oh great naysayer, was it because what I wrote was actually on key and accurate and you found it hard to debunk? Seriously, I've spent 5-10 minutes on the general forum and you're everywhere trashing the game, if you dislike it that much don't you have better things to do?

Its working fine for me, One thing I can say, spamming keys will make you character jerk about it you have abit of lag etc. One thing that helped for me was lowering the delay in the options to 0.25 instead of the basic 0.5, there is a slight delay still yes, and it is visually noticeable... But its smooth enough for me to atleast enjoy the game, however if they can improve it, they really should because it would make the game feel and look much better.

Oh please, spare me the ********.... It's an mmo, no matter what game, however they make it, you will be repeating content. Thats the very nature of the beast, its an endless game, and as such, you will repeat content. I used to play WoW, I maxed everything out, every class to level cap, twice, both factions, all crafting skills, rare mounts, raids, hardmodes etc etc. In the end, I still repeated content, sure there was MORE content to achive before hitting the repeat button, but eventually you will always get there. I play this game for its PvP and it's story, yes I actually like the PvP in this game, regardless of how many claims of unbalanced classes or broken mechanics some people might have, I enjoy it. If you're not having fun, then yes, you're wasting your money playing MMOs, because all of them will have content that you repeat in some fashion or another. But I love em, and they save me loads of money, why? Because I only need to pay 15$ a month to play, not buy a new game every other week to keep my sparetime etertainment up. I hate it when things end, so 8-10 hour games are awful for me. I mean, I repeat the content because its fun, not because of the armor piece at the end of it, I dont need a reward for doing something that is fun, but it seems most gamers today do need that illusionary reward.

simple, if its near or above 40, dont use an ability, try to keep it at 40 or below at all times.

If my level 20 powertech with 10 points in Adv Prototype can score 130k ish damage in a warfront without even really trying, and also gaining the 2 easy protect medals using guard.. Honestly, not to be rude, but unless you like zergrush in huttball, not getting the 75k medal shouldnt even be a possibility, you're doing something wrong in that case.

These issues are already reported, and the devs are aware... so if people could be less butthurt and instead focus on learning to play the game, we'd all be happier. But as with all games with some sort of PvP action, some players just have to blame everything and everyone around them for their own failure or inability to be the number one super beast, I've outdmgd people of my own class 30 levels above me on several occasions, why? because they are out in the blue on how to use their abilities, and I see it everytime I pvp, I just need to look at them go about it... Is this some case of needing others to tell you how to do it or?... I mean, some guy yesterday spent 15 minutes talking to me about which specc he should take, all while obivously not even reading the skillpoints for himself at all and using some brainpower.... It's saddening to see how many people need copypaste builds and rotations and are incapable of making their own.... So instead of blaming everything else, focus on the real issue at hand, the fact that you cant accept that you.. well... need to learn more about your given class, period.

Sorry but no, Even as a lvl 18 vs lvl 50s in pvp gear I dont feel bursted down in no time, sure if more than one jumps me, but thats to be expected. The only time I feel any kind of burst that I cant react to, is if a operative/scoundrel or a sniper/slinger, catches me in the open, giving them plenty of time to unload before I even located them and countered, and even then I feel more like its a L2P issue for me than anything else. I love the feel of PvP atm, and while somethings need abit of tuning, overall, its the most fun I've had in pvp for a looong time.

... After having played republic to level 50, tropper none the less, then switching to bounty hunter, because I found out some friends played on another server. The few things of faction imbalance that you so prettily mention, does not exist. Both sides has classes whose animations are quicker than the other, try comparing pulse cannon from the trooper to the flamethrower of the BH, the cannon animation and timing is far superior and easier to handle, and thats just one example. Just because some things have been blown completely out of proportion, does not mean intentional faction imbalance, so stop with the paranoia... I mean really? Alot of concern I can understand, but this one is just down right silly. They are looking into the animation issue, the rest of it?... Leave the silly conspiracy nonsense where it belongs, on wierd websites where people look way to hard for connections.

what backwater server are you on? :s I've been pvping all week, started at level 10 currently 18, taking it slow because I only have a few hours a day at most to play on. And Im usally alone as a below level 50 player in pvp, at the most maybe 1-2 others on my team and equal numbers on opposing team. More often than not more than half the teams are level 50s. Tbh, Im more worried about the que times for below level 50 :s

Dont want to tell anyone how to play but... seriously, get rid of unload if you're a powertech... Stationary, and deals poor dmg for the heat it costs, just get in there and smack them instead ^^

Simple, remove the freaking ledge. Problem solved, no more whining needed.
