I never threw the 'go outside' argument, you can do what you want, including arguing your perspective here, who am I to stop you! However if the crystals aren't actually the same, by logic, your argument falls flat. Simple as.
I guess look at the positive's BioWare have done recently. I'm guessing if you bought all the equipment, you've likely leveled a 50 and/or got to legacy level 6. Free month on BioWare! It's not all bad. You can have my pre-order crystal if ya like? I don't use it.
Meh, I never use my pre-order crystal. Showing these things off all the time reminds me of those people that show off their big expensive cars. Screams insecurity.
I'm in a similar situation, on the only EU rp-pvp server, which population-wise is doing pretty good overall. be nice to get some new blood though if people decide to transfer over
I don't have an issue with it, as long as the first one or two are provided free, as the game is pretty much unplayable for some people who picked wrong.
To be honest, I reckon they could do with increasing the population on heavy/full servers as well, as currently a lot of planets are pretty dead on those servers as well...
I wouldn't mind the MT's so much, as long as the couple of transfers were free.
Although to be perfectly honest a server merge would have been a better idea. Everyone will likely all move to Fatman or Nadd instead of balancing out several other servers.
They could potentially control it better if they stated they were going to shut down specific servers and you had a pick from a list or something.
I guess I can understand you being upset about it, but to be honest the only purpose of having these exclusives is for bragging rights in terms of how much money you've been able to spend on the game or items for the game.
Community-wise I think its a fairly devisive concept. I be fine with all my DDE and pre-order stuff slowly getting moved into equipment for everyone over the course of the games evolution. But again that's just my opinion on it.
To be honest, lightsabers with black in the middle and a colour on the outside look stupid. I'd happily trade my pre-order crystal for another colour any day.
Good post OP. The fps issues and server populations are definately a major issue in my view as well. Server caps should be raised, even on a supposedly 'heavy' server, most planets are barren and empty apart from the fleet.
Ahh I see. Apparently their going to be continually updating the CE Store, but to be honest, it's not something that bothers me too much. Looking at how bioware has done things lately, it seems a lot of stuff will become avaiable to others later on. Which personally I think is not a bad thing.
Pretty much I think. Though CE got the CE and VIP stores, and DDE only got VIP. At least that's how I think it worked? Never actually visited the VIP store myself to check it out.
