    More interactions in Cantinas.

    in Suggestion Box

    Posted

    Stories for NPCs in Cantinas would be nice. Maybe just giving a reward like an achievement and/or a title, nothing unbalancing. They could even just do it with aliens, so as not to need to record new voice acting.

     

    Another nice thing would be certain jukebox songs causing NPCs to start or stop dancing, or other animations.

    Penalty for Leaving WZs on PVP Servers

    in Suggestion Box

    Posted

    I'm not sure why there isn't one in place already, it's ridiculous. Don't roll a PVP server if you're just going to instantly give up. Scenario I just experienced:

     

    Queue into WZ. I get there, there are only 5 of us. One guy says "screw Hutt ball" and refuses to leave manually, instead letting it kick him just as the game starts, making it impossible for us to get a useful person quickly.

     

    The other team scores fast, since there are only 4 of us. More people queue into our side, and instantly leave as they see we are down one point.

     

    !!!!

     

    Throughout the game, there were about 7 people in and out of our side. The other team never scored again after we got 6 useful people, so obviously we could've beaten them had people actually stuck around.

     

    I say, if you leave a warzone so many times in the life of your account, you get instant transfered to a PVE server! :mad:

    Im quitting if

    Im tired of waiting 6 hours for queues, getting one, and fighting 8 battlemasters who got free valor in huttball.

     

    Care to explain this "free valor" to me?

    So here's a question for the fanbase...

    For me, the Republic races are just boring. The blind guys and their headgear is pointless since it'll rarely match any armor. The Twi'lek colors are dull. The Zabrak tattoos look fake. The green guys just have nothing interesting going on.

     

    Compare that to: a race with glowing red eyes, the "Darth Maul" race, more decorated Twi'leks, a red-skinned race with spiny projections all over their bodies and faces, Sith class-specific scarification, crazy feral bald women who love pain.

     

    Unless someone is a hardcore fan of Jedi from the movies/books, I can't see why anyone would roll Republic. I think a lot of people who play the game and aren't big fans would see the more exotic Imperial races as much more attractive.

     

    So my suggestion is: give Republic an extra race, or multiple extra races. If "aliens having boring voice overs as a main character" is an issue, then just have the lore explain how they came from a human Republic adopted family. Or any other myriad of explanations to side-step alien character voice overs.

     

    My second suggestion: don't let whoever wrote the Jedi stories do it for the next expansion. The Jedi stories are terribly uninteresting (I consider myself neutral at heart, but play Imp because it's more interesting). We all know from the movies that Jedi are most certainly very interesting and entertaining, so why are their questlines so DULL? The only explanation is bad/uninspired writers. The people who wrote the Sith class quests and the Imperial Agent quests are great, please make them write everyone's new stories.

    What to do at 50?

    • Run flashpoints! Still takes an hour+ to get a group (it's getting better). Many are still broken/overtuned.[/quote[
       
      Join a guild.
    • Dailies! Takes 2-4 people on a planet. Standing around on Belsavis for an hour is no fun.
    • PvP! Server faction imbalance currently has me running Huttball 90% of the time. I've never seen Void Star.
    • Operations! Lots of bugs, huge bugs. Fun to do though. Some really cool encounters.
    • Collect stuff! I've seen no pets, no mounts, no titles.
    • Craft stuff! I can buy better from commendations. Mounts are not unique and sadly, BoP.
    • Play the GTN! The automatic default pricing on the GTN ensures that no one can make money. If it costs me 80K to make a purple and the GTN auto-prices it at 15K, someone is going to undercut me by 65K. Notice how the Discovery missions are all sub 5K? I can make money selling base materials though.
    • Dynamic stuff! Would be nice to have invasions or attacks to defend against. Aren't I at war with the other faction? 1.1 is bringing this?
    • Return to previous planets! There's no fallout from my previous actions and codex building provides no titles, pets or anything. Hoth is cool as heck (bad pun) but there's no reason to go back.
    • Build companion affection! I only have use for 1 companion. I would love to see them unlock a new ability or get a passive stat gain/buff from this. They currently build stuff faster but the only thing to have them do is Slicing right now.
    • Get Light/Dark side maxed! Most people will be heavy into rank 4 by level 50. I can run BT a couple times to max it out. Would be cool to have cosmetic rewards and have the vendors updated. Maybe you unlock new emotes on rank up?
    • Space missions! These are fun for a bit. The tuning is off on quite a few though and the collision detection can be murder for the tougher ones. When you're in one though, you're unable to do anything else (like find a group for dailies/flashpoints).
    • Build an alt. Did that, still doing that. I'm sure I'm at a few hundred thousand humand/robot kills now. Some classes have amazing quests.

     

    It probably reads like a rant but it's more trying to figure out what the devs think we should be doing at 50? I love exploring but after datacrons, there's nothing left. I love the quests and story line but at 50, it's like you no longer exist in the game world. I like flashpoints but it takes an hour to find a group and sometimes 2 hours to finish one. I can't leave the station either to get a group, so I just twiddle my thumbs waiting.

     

    -Get a guild for flashpoint groups.

    -Get a guild for dailies.

    -Get better at Hutt Ball.

    -You just said there were non-unique mounts, but now you claim there are no mounts? There ARE mounts, there ARE pets, there ARE titles.

    -You will want a craft leveled for when it becomes flavor of the month. Easier to do it now while it's cheap to level with mats bought off the GTN.

    -Then why are people in my guild able to make money? Sounds like you're just not good at it.

    -So you've done every quest? You've never wanted to venture into enemy territory to fight and/or gank people? Are you sure you know what an MMO is..?

    -Companions DO get an extra ability when their affection is leveled. They also give you quests every few levels of affection. If you don't enjoy the story, again, this is probably not the game for you.

    -Okay, you just said why there's a reason to level your alignment, because they've said they'll expand upon it.

    -You just don't like anything, do you?

    -You play this game too much and that's why you're bored. This is a game, not a second life.

    Any Actual females not female characters play this game?

    There were a few females in the guild I'm in at the beginning, but I think most of them went inactive and I'm the only active one left. Most of the ones who come around occasionally are just wives of the more active members.

     

    I mostly blame it on being on a PVP server, however. People are just not as mature here, it's that simple. There are some guilds that exist entirely to troll the server, and they've been here since day one. Not just annoying trolls, but ones making racial slurs in the Fleet's general chat. I don't know what the moderators are doing that they won't fix this.
