I personally do not have a pvp bone in my body. Whenever I am faced with pvp I make the decision to go do something else. I am glad the game has so much to do. I do not want even a taste of pvp. It is so easy to get flagged and so hard in comparison to get the pvp flag removed. If I understand the rewards correctly pvp players have superior gear available to them compared to the rest of us. And this game is so gear centric the advantage is all pvp. The ease of getting flagged and the gear advantage make the pve player fodder. Who wants to be that in a game? Please allow myself and others like me to opt out.

I am not a pvp or raid player. And I understand that limits me in a pvp game. Being able to craft gear is quite a feature. I can do this without being in a group or running quests. The way it is sold it is a very complex thing to master. The way it is sold a player character has to be matched to the right crew skill to get the best use of companions. The way it is sold you can get the best rate of success from gathering by giving your companions gifts. However after doing all that with my four main crafters I find out all that enhancement stuff is not really in the game. I have seen other posters refer to that as being broken and not going to be fixed. That is just swell. The drop rate for materials is low. I am an older fella and this is not my first game. I understand grind. Grind is not the word I use when I am trying to get materials. The fun aspect is becoming less and less with this game. I know my options and I will chose one someday.

I am not happy with this nerf. One reason is of course the scoundrel did not deserve a nerf. The statement that pvp had nothing to do this nerf does not hold water. The devs expecting us to believe such a statement bothers me all by its self.

I agree. Crafting is a pain. As this is not my first mmo I am aware of grind. The grind associated with crafting in this game is over the top. I would be happy if they took crafting out as all it does is fuel more frustration than this game is worth.

I am 61. I find I am glad to be here. I play with The Wife and the Elder Son. We missed being founders over at ddo by about a month. We played there until they got stupid. Came here with a guildie as founders and we now play as a group of four three or two. My reflexes and memory preclude me from doing anything solo or outside our grouping. Heroics? Flash points? Pug groups? Oh heck no. Although we finally did earn our HK 51 droid. The Wife and I are proud of our altoholic tendencies. It gives us a real feel for the whole game. We will play as long as we can have fun.

With the HK in the ea store I doubt anything will be done to correct this bug.

I am happy for you and your guildies. However there is nothing in my storage or logs to indicate I have the item. I suspect the change maybe to support sales as the HK is now in the ea store.

We have completed FE twice now with out a HK drop appearing. All CS can do is tell us to run it again. Although everything points to running it until it pops is going to be the only option, doesn't mean I'm happy about it.

This being where suggestions are made, let me make one. The persons who are resposible for the 'One time password' system need to be 'disiplined'. I would further suggest that their disipline be on the severe side.

The Wife and I both have founder in our title selection. We started a lot of alts. One reason was to experience what the game had to offer. With experience we also wound up playing alts so we could sent credits to the character that needed some help upgrading one thing or another. Now you have upped the cost of living so much people coming into this game are going to have a short play experience before leaving. Let me also put it this way. 2.0 has had some serious costs in continuing past level 50. Your crafting matrix has already drained me credit wise. Now this? I understand some people in this game have more credits than EA. Its to late to worry about them. You better worry about keeping players that play the game as an adverture game. Not limits to players that play as a investment banker.

Ditto

I do not do pvp. Not in this game. Not in any game that has pvp. I do not act in that fashion in real life and I do not see a need for me to do so playing a game. I do understand however that some people enjoy pvp as an additional feature. And I do not mind if people who enjoy that that kind of game play get together and have at it. I find that in this game pvp players have an easy time pulling pve players into a pvp situation. And once there pve players have to inconvenience themselves to get the pvp marker dropped. I want to be able to switch off pvp as a option. And I want it to stay off. This is my opinion and all I have to say on the matter.

I want whom ever came up with this level 50 gets it free to know my thoughts. Its cute...But its WRONG! If nothing else it has set up an elitist group by simple default. After six long years at ddo, putting up with all the lame ideas fostered off on us, I have a short fuse here at swtor. So you know. This isn't about the money or the free time. It is about respect. We came here as a guild. And we may leave as one.
