  1. I'm back after a 3 year hiatus.

    I liked how they got rid galactic command crates.I really hated that as it was a total lottery so I quit.

    I quite like the gearing system now.Seems a lot fairer.

    My main gripe is swapping out stuff.It costs way too much.If you own it surely it should be free no?

    The cost of augments is ridiculous.13 augs at 5m a piece 65m.Do it maybe 4-6 times and your talking silly money for alts.

    In the patch today a new level of augs,rinse repeat above.So you know what,I'm not going to bother.

    I've been back 2 weeks and I've had enough already,sub cancelled.

  2. You did not list examples you gave opinions about things you did not like. Then you capped it off with a No True Scotsman. Like so many "true Star Wars fans" who have vociferously expressed their dislike for the sequel trilogy you have presented your opinions as facts, you have offered nothing substantive, you disregard precedent, and show little to no respect for anyone who's opinion differs from your own. What is quite obvious is that, like so many others, these movies did not hold up to your headcanon. You, like many others, have created in your head an expectation of what Star Wars is, who these characters should be, and anything that does not meet to that exacting specification, and anyone who does not agree with your opinion, is to be derided and mocked. The problem is that nothing is going to align with your headcanon expectation.

     

    The sequel movies are just as flawed as anything Lucas ever produced. And let us not forget what Lucas revealed as their original plan for the sequels during an interview for James Cameron's Story of Science Fiction. Yes George, let us turn Star Wars into Innerspace and go into the microscopic world of the Whills and dance with midi-chlorians. Everything about Star Wars is flawed. There were flaws in the first movie. There were ideas presented in the first movie that had to be retconnen in later movies due to a change in direction that created plot holes that fans are still trying to gloss over. Then there is the love-hate-love-still hate-acceptance relationship with the prequels. Have you forgotten how no "true Star Wars fan" liked the prequels when they were released? Twenty years later and nothing has changed. So you do not like the sequels. Oh well. You have 20+ years of fanboi nerd rage in line ahead of you. Next in line is someone who hates the colour of green used for the lightsabers in the prequels.

     

    People like what they like and dislike what they dislike, and sometimes one's opinions and views on something change over time. There is no problem there. The problem is that people who dislike something feel that it is their mission to proclaim load and far their dislike, to convince anyone who's opinion is different to join their opinion, and to proclaim how wrong everyone is who does not agree with them by belittling and mocking them.

     

    I don't really have a problem with the prequels.All have bad and good in them but still felt like SW (Jar Jar and the horrible cgi in the first two).Revenge of the Sith was a very good film and it probably should have been left at that.

    Do something new,not a rehash.

    The Last Jedi was a gamebreaker for me.I went to the cinema in the 70's and was hooked after seeing Star Wars.After I seen TLJ there was people actually booing at the screen,most where laughing at it.I've never left the cinema enraged at a movie but I was with that.

    The fall out after it dropped,the calling fans man babies,phobes and bigots because they didn't like it was a huge mistake for me.I've supported SW with my money on games,books and dvd's for 40 years,so yeah I'm invested in it.

    I just felt it was a huge FU to people like me.

    But,hey if you liked it power to you.

    TROS was slightly better but after Rian Johnson had subverted our expectations there was not much Abrams could do.You do know there was a Lucas cut don't you?Apparently the head honchos at Disney seen it and it was so much better than the version we got.They where appalled that KK discarded it and she's been stopped from doing any future SW stuff.

  3. Sequel Trilogy is far from ideal. Tons of flaws but i disagree completly that it should've treated the OT cast as sacred cows. Nostalgia should be used sporadically, not drive the filmaking procesa. I enjoyed Luke's arc in Last Jedi and I view the backlash as little more than a tauntrum from old fans who wanted Luke to be a boring Gary Stu who can do no wrong, grow or question anything as a character

     

    Also, name those example WITHIN the movie where "KK's man hating agenda" shows and is part of the plot.

     

    You enjoyed Jake Skywalker?Really?LOL.

    Examples of KK inserting her agenda are plenty.The absolute cucking of Luke Skywalker,denigrating him to being Luke Supertramp and wanking off a space manatee to get milk.His pathetic death.The way Finn and Poe where made into bumbling oafs,the piss poor treatment of Akbar and his death being given to Admiral gender studies purple hair.The whole **** show on the casino planet (capitalism bad,free the space horses good).Finn being saved by the woman because reasons.

    I don't know anybody that likes this film and I can tell you I know a **** load of people who like SW.

    Any question of KK's intention to sjw SW even more just have to look at her New Republic crap.Hopefully her contract doesn't get renewed and Favreau takes over.Then we can be done with her cluster**** that is Disney SW (Mandalorian and Rogue 1 excluded).

  4. The sequel trilogy was a total unmitigated disaster.TFA was ok but after TLJ ruined SW for many fans.

    Rian Johnson and KK deliberately threw older fans under the bus to get to the new sjw generation of snowflakes.

    Who weren't interested.

    TROS was a mess from start to finish.Multiple reshoots,cast getting let go,money wasted all led to a hopeless rescue effort that was a 4 out of 10.The final insult to the OT fans.

    Disney has royally ruined SW .The only reason the Mandalorian was good was because KK had nothing to do with it.

    Everthing else she's done with SW she's ruined it with her box ticking,man hating sjw agenda ******** inserted into SW that was already diverse,had strong women in it already.

  5. I just feel Bioware are being forced to out all there eggs in 1 basket with Anthem.If that fails that will give EA the perfect excuse to close them down and this game with it.Look at their track record and all the studios they have bought and then offed.

    The decisions that they have made with the much hated CXP system and now the CQ beggar belief.Despite the vast majority of players not wanting it they just plough on regardless.It feels to me they are trying to get as many players to leave so they can shut this down.

    You guys should talk with your wallet,thats the only language EA understand.I do feel that it's already too late,I give this game a year at most with the current way its heading.

  6. Be careful,saying anything negative brings all the usual suspects here to defend this game.

    I unsubbed after a couple of days back and even if you give valid reasons you get called names,your a noob ,your a whiner,even a douchebag.Be very careful,these fanboys are dangerous and are addicted to hamster wheeling CXP.

    Let them have this dying toilet of a game,they deserve each other.

  7. The old pvp gearing at launch felt more like a gamble. How is it Hypocritical ? Hypocritical would be me coming on here announcing my departure and getting on to others for doing the same thing. I merely stated i can never understand why people feel the need to announce "hey everyone im no longer interested in the game im leaving now !"

    Well maybe just maybe somebody that works on the game may take note on why players don't like certain things and change it?If it wasn't for CXP I'd probably still be subbed.A lot of other folks I know feel exactly the same and have quit.Thats my main gripe,not fanboys,not pvp etc.I just think it's such a bad system.

  8. Gearing was an absolute joke and so was pvp along with many other aspects of the game at the beginning. The only thing i miss was the class trees at launch. If youd played since launch - it shouldnt have to be pointed out. But failing to acknowledge any of the positive changes and only focusing on the negative doesnt fit your narrative I suppose.

     

    You dont like the command system but youve reached 300 with multiple toons. Unintentionally or intentional? Either way youve reached the goal rank. Was it a painful drawn out grind or too easy ? For me personally ive done far worse grinds and depending on when you played SWG youd know that. Did you grind your way to jedi b4 nge? Did you grind GCW rank to General ? Did you grind DWB for materials for a full set of mandalorian armor? 2/3 of that you needed teams to accomplish it. Cxp is cakewalk in comparison and its soloable . Because of that ...it makes it hard to believe youre an swg veteran or youre just trying to make cxp sound worse than it actually Is - again to fit your narrative.

     

    I dont understand the fuss about conquest. I never cared for it. Whenever a guild tried to make me feel obligated to do a series of grinds that i care nothing about id /gquit. I play at my own pace - I dont pay a monthly sub to reach someone elses quota - I have a job for that. If youre no longer enjoying the game and want to quit - by all means do so..youre not wrong to discontinue paying for a game you dont enjoy. It just makes no sense to me why people feel they have to announce their departure . Why not just leave without all the dramatics ?

     

    Yes I was a full template Jedi back in the day so I know all about grind.I was a General as well.At the beginning of this and it was all new and shiny I lost interest quite quick like a lot of others.Been back a couple of times over the years to finish up the stories etc.I'll just have to disagree with you about CXP,I hate the gambling aspect to it,it's just ********.Why not give out fixed amounts of tokens,the way it was before instead this stupid gambling hamster wheel?

    Don't see anybody being dramatic,I've got 21 days left and I can post within reason what I want.You complaining about me posting about leaving is hypocritical as you chose to read it and respond to it lol.

  9. Great, 21 days of whining to put up with.

    Good to see the fanboys here defending this lol.As I said enjoy it if you can I don't.I'm a long time SWG player,beta tester of this as well.The gearing system was actually better back then imo.Sorry but I hate CXP,I can't understand why anybody would like it and has killed my interest.Granted that disintegration now gives uc's but the system is still pish.I have a fair few toons at 300 so it's not like I'm some noob who doesn't know what he's talking about,To play unsubbed is just pointless in this game.As for the new CQ LOL.Is that what we have to look forward to?

    EA just don't have a clue and never have about what the players want,they just continue to serve up s h ite that we don't want and forces players to leave.

  10. No, the people who don't spacebar aren't the horrible toxic players. The horrible toxic players are the ones yelling SPCAEBAR!!!1! in chat, which is why I avoid Pug FPs.

     

     

     

    You hated TLJ? Me too. Has nothing to do with this game though. Also, I hated because it was a rehash of ESB without a single new idea of its own, whereas you apparently hated it because you're stuck in the 1950s.

     

    Anyway, you should stay subbed. Yes, really. Uh...well, you may hate the game now, but just think how good it could be if you keep giving BW this valuable feedback. Also, what's the phrase...? "While I may disagree with everything you say, I will defend to death your right to give BW $15 / month so they can stay solvent and you can keep moaning on the forum."

    Just on a side note,your name.I used to go to the beach there and Saltcoats.Had family there and at Irvine too.

    It's a small world.Dunno where your coming from with the 50s guff lol.Was'nt alive then.

  11. A friend asked me to come back and stupidly I agreed.After 2 days I regretted it.Reasons-

    Boring,doing the same stuff over and over

    God awful CXP loot crate system,f ucking worst gearing system I've seen in a game

    Horrible toxic players or ***** that don't space bar lol,yes it is annoying as f

    I left about a year ago and they upped augments to 236,another grind I don't want to do

    I've went off SW after that horrible The Last Jedi SJWars movie

    Servers felt empty at times

    I've seen too many players quit when there in heroics etc

     

    So I'm done,if you still like this game power to you.All the reasons why I quit in the first place are stil there.Mainly the CXP system,it's utterly retarded.I detest it but I thought it would 've been removed or overhauled at least,but no.

  12. :confused::confused: whyyyy?? I don't understand why you came in here to say this, but now I'm curious. How could anyone hate him? What, specifically, makes you hate him?

    I don't like how he and Lana where basically forced down our throats.I'd take an original companion over them 2 any day.

  13. I don't care what that statement says because it's a flat out LIE.

    They slowed the drop rate way down to keep all the hamsters running in their GC t4 crate wheels.Plain and simple.

    You guys that are defending it are swallowing it.I however as many others have have had enough and unsubbed.

    If they don't change it or get rid of the whole rng crapfest this game will die.If GC is here to stay in it's present form then I will never come back.And it DESERVES to die if it does.

    This whole RNG endgame is the worst system I've played in an mmo.It's just beyond a joke tbh and I'm glad I quit.

  14. More bizarre. After 5.4 it's not dropped from bosses on veteran FP. Second stealth nerf or what? It looks like they are mocking.

    I think they are past caring now.Nothing in the patch notes again?

    My bad they did this time.Wonders will never cease.
