ROTFLMAO!!! :D Yes... I believe it is.

qft....

Personally, I would love a range boost, but honestly.. I don't think this will help balance things out. But.. as a default, the SNIPER should have the longest range in the game, even if it's just a 'temp' click power. Call it: "Down Wind" or something. Clicking extends next 'snipe/ambush' shot range by 5 meters. Give it a 1 minute cool down.

At present, objectives like GOALS in huttball, are not given enough credit. My friend and I scored 4 of the 6 goals in a recent Huttball match, and assisted on the other 2 scores, and got 1 vote each... we voted for each other. The whole MVP thing is kinda silly, but whatever. What I want is MORE POINTS for scoring a goal in Huttball. I mean...?? Isn't that the WHOLE POINT of the match???

Strategy? Please... so much CC in this game you have no choice. The strategy would be, use it when you have to, which is frequent. Zerging??? Really? LOL... ok... if you want to kill yourself and take yourself out of the match for 10 + seconds, be my guest. I will use that time to score in huttball, capture an objective, or gang up on your now outnumbered friends. LOL... so please... be my guest. Kill yourself now. I will gladly take advantage of your absence. On the flip side. Since you died, and your abilities are on cool down, you exit your base and me and my friends immediately gank you're defenseless, no resolve butt, back to your base. It works both ways bro. At least with cool downs finished on respawn, you stand a fighting chance.

FYI - nearly every side quest has either a shuttle or a quick travel port nearby, making travel a lot faster than you're apparently engaging in. Your quick travel has a what?? 15 minute cool down. It's usually recharged by the time I finish my side quest and am ready to move to the next location. Granted, you DO have to discover the quick travel locations first, via traveling to them, but they are all over the place, and personally I quite enjoy seeing the beautiful worlds they've created.

In early beta, the scoundrel and OP were dying the most. Perhaps they over compensated??? Yes, they are VERY powerful. I've been.... face rolled quite a few times by them, with absolutely no counter to the KB, stabbity stab, stab, rotation they have. Maybe remove or reduce that KB 'might' give other players a chance to counter, but as a whole the class seems to play the way it was intended. A boat load of up front DPS, with a glass jaw.

I too cannot honestly say 'any' class is OP, at this point. I don't have enough PVP experience to justify making this claim. I can only say; that a LVL 50 should not be fighting lvl 10's. It's just wrong in every sense of the word. My personal experience was that the SAGE was totally kicking my Merc's butt with that 'throw pebbles at me" power. Arrrgh.. even popping my personal bubble didn't help. Ate through it like it wasn't even on. Granted, I was only lvl 23, he/she was lvl 50. So... hardly a fair fight to begin with. My Sorc (18) took on a lvl 50 Sorc, fair fight. Nobody else got involved. I was CRUSHED!! I didn't even knock 25% of his health off before he killed me. It was just lightning attacks, no CC's played a major factor in the fight. His DPS just cratered my face in. My bubble lasted about 1/10 as long as his did. (absorb.. absorb... absorb....) Face roll!!

Can you PLEASE kill the Global cool down on powers IF the player has died??? Why do I still have to wait 50 seconds for my break-free/anti-CC ability to cool down, AFTER I've died, before I use it again?? For example: I'm fighting, I get CC'd, I use my trinket and break it. I then get mobbed by 3 or 4 players and die. Not a problem. I expect that to happen. But when I respawn a few seconds later, not only is my trinket, but EVERY power with a cool down is still ... cooling down. I just died. They should reset immediately. Why am I waiting for them to cool down 'after' death?? Am the moment, I don't mind the amount of CC in this game. It's a bit... overwhelming, but I can live with it despite resolve not seeming to work, provided I have ways to mitigate it that DONT require that I hang back and wait by the team door until my cool downs are finished, before heading back into battle. I've just face planted. Reset the cool downs so I can get back into battle already. I'm sorry, maybe I'm a noob and shouldn't get CC'd so much? Or maybe I haven't been able to invest points to reduce my cool down on my anti-CC ability yet - but BIOWARE's design philosophy was stated as: "Is it fun??" Well - having my abilities STILL on cool down after I die, in PVP, is NOT FUN. Please fix this.

I've got 1 IMP Agent that is total DS, but that isn't to say I/She hasn't wanted to make a few LS decisions, because quite frankly those choices were the best to make considering my mission objective and desired outcome. Regardless; on 'those' decisions I still went DS, because I wanted to hit DS lvl 1 and unlock equipment, and didn't feel like making a dozen more DS choices to off set that 1 LS choice. The irony being; Had I made the choices I wanted to make, I'd still be 50/50 neutral and nowhere near unlocking that gear. It's a fact; there is no reward for sitting on the fence. So that in mind, my first few toons will be total LS or total DS, until I've got the money / crafting to outfit them without having to hit those alignment levels.

I haven't noticed any 'delay' that you mention. I'm not saying it doesn't exist, I'm saying I haven't noticed and I've done both PVP and PVE content. However, reading your finely written article, I can see how animation duration could potentially cause a problem, especially with PVP. If such a thing does indeed exist; then I have confidence that BioWare WILL address the issue. Just like I'm certain that they make many different improvements to this game as time progresses. I doubt the game we are playing 'today' will be the same as the game we are playing 6 months from now, let alone 2 years from now. There are certainly 'many' things that could use some improvement in this fine title, but as a whole, it's an awesome game, a great story, a beautiful environment and has a GREAT team working behind the scenes to make it even better.

Years, most likely. Already paid my first 6 months, and would have paid longer in advance but they wouldn't let me.

Likely a known issue, and is being worked on. There is a 'sort' function, it just isn't working.

LOL - if only this was true. During two beta tests the 'Random' name i generated was taken. Now that is sad...

Is this the customer service complaint thread? Well... I've had a tier 3 tech ticket open for over a week now, so ya... their "Customer Service Fu" is weak. My 2 year old could beat them up.
