Because its self defeating to the purpose of ensuring game population. If they allowed server X-fers before this whole mess isn't resolved you will get dead ones and other that are just imbalanced. It would be hard to police and alot of other MMO's that did this no longer give a flying **** about maintaining them. Finally enough with the elitest attitude over freemium players. We want them so they can eventually pay to play this game, treating them like **** on the forums is counter productive and lording over the fact you pay $15 a month and they don't and should leave isn't helping anyone.

Technically if you can't buy them this year then there is always the next. Honestly if you really want them then buy the cartel coins. Yeah it seems like gouging but then again it also means your more unique as I am sure they will release something different next life day. To me they don't really seem much and the last thing I want is to grind Social points to get them from a vendor and where in the hell would a quest work for this, especially when we can't go to Kashyyk.

Yeah that sorta shocked me as they said it will be rewards from completing missions. I wonder if its just there as a short cut to those who just want to dominate them faster? Either way some amazing stuff, nice to see the cartel market expand even if those items are limited, sure does give collectors with cash to spend some more incentive to go out an buy them.

WoW is basically a small world, and yes its the same design. The only difference is really the scale of potential you can't do much with one world in WoW. Whole galaxy is different. The reason why I say its the same is because you have instances that are larger then the outside would appear and expansion zones that require you to get on boat, portal, etc. The only difference is now you can fly inbetween zones classed as flyable. You can't pull that crap in an instance. Finally at least SWTOR gave us a player home our starships and we can use to go to different zones and at least fly in rail gun gamestyle space combat atm. So your point is pretty moot. The game is basically a bunch of mini sand boxes made through the illusion of programming and story to seem pretty far and big and when look at money grubbing don't care about you cause you're a wallet WoW blizzard I thank god this game is out. Best fun and bad bugs I still take this game over the years I played WoW. Only other game I will play is DCUO, but thats a completely different game style all together.

Years have nothing to do with game design, and this game is still playing catch up. Half of what you asked wasn't implemented in game like skyrim right of the bat and years in other MMO's. I do agree they should just make a twilek or alien head design so when its placed on a species that clearly can't display it, it will display something that suits the race instead.

Yeah like the additions in cartel market unlocks and packs? $15 dollars for the lot and gift card of cartel cash, yeah no way there are businesses that have ever done that at all, ever.

Could be a meditative state found on Voss, or belsavious having an ancient device that recorded the galaxy events. Animus anyone. Cookie to anyone who gets that reference.

Have to agree, even though I am sorcerer giving customers the even those since beta the power to control the way development in PvP mechanics work is just stupid. Yeah I hear they are nerfing stun bubble, well it isn't even a nerf. Just the backlash only being applicable to the casters bubble and not his party. I don't mind that, even though it would take our group functioning down a huge notch in DPS role. Hopefully they will just overhaul the entire DPS tree. They should never have made that ability available at such a low tier. But then again the noticed a huge lack of DPS sorcerers in PvP and hoped this would give them some use for their past scuttle.

Operatives 7, thats a joke right? Basically the last spot is a tie between sorcerer and mercs. They can't DPS and pigeon holed into healing or hybrids for sorcerers to even survive.

Personally thats a change that has to happen. Its too tempting to pass up as its a free CC for group in melee.

Hit the guy your companion is streaming and they will get back to healing you.

Right like we want more dead server and unbalanced population on servers now more then ever.

Nice try, no it wasn't around since launch. I know since I was there it popped out the last 3 content patches ago. Since then each patch has been amounting more an more bugs and glitches that it makes my head hurt. And yes when you don't have PTS character copy bugs slip through the cracks because of the lack of players finding them. DON'T SAY THAT MORE PLAYERS ON THE PTS WOULD MEAN LESS BUGS BEING SPOTTED. Simple as that.

And lore. Not every planet has a 24-hour cycle or clear weather patterns. Seems like a lot of work for so many areas. Don't see any performance issues with it either.

Actually thats not true. If they only implement for certain terrain types like rocks with obvious climb textures or walls in space stations with ladders and cables it wouldn't have an exploit at all. Even then its simple as adding code to areas you don't want players to climb to, making it seem like going farther is impossible. This could add some fun new mechanics to the game. Like AT-ATs or climbing on a starship to sabotage it.

No character copying on the PTS means less players can be on there to find and fix bugs before the patch goes live. With every new patch adding more bugs you get something as simply as lightsabre companion glitches turned into layered code nightmare where mods have to sift through to find a way to fix it for the current version of the game. Bottom line PTS character copy needs to be online last month to avoid such complicated bugs.

It wouldn't be hard to implement a system where the person could glide up with a rope or when faced against a wall with climbing enabled to allow such a mechanic. Could certainly make the game interesting.

That doesn't mean it won't change, when the subs start dropping out and the income dwindles they will be forced to adapt their matchmaking system to suit their customers. Just because they said it doesn't mean they will be forced change it. Never make that assumption with something as fickle as PvP queuing.

If they made an ingame voice system instead of relying on third party software I would say yes. But when it comes to forming a premade and using a third party chat system for organization. Then no. There is none. There is nothing fair about a pug being smashed against a premade or hell even a match where the other side is clearly outgearing the other. Its why premades should be stuck with other premades. Then comeback and tell me about your skill in that match. See a military get taken out by an unorganized group of morons even if they have the same set military grade hardware? You entire argument is based around you having the time to make friends and be on the same game time to have fun with them. Come to master darnalla and see how far that logic will get you or any APAC server.

You mean the total when combined with three targets or just one per hit?

Its truely momentous and fun when a PuG team work together to smash the other PuG team. But when its just a bunch of overgeared players in premade it turns your game time into **** time as you barely get any comms and watch as they just tear the crap out of you while watching them use emotes to maliciously taunt and ridicule you. Face that same team twice in a row and you just log out and pray they won't be online in the next hour and half.

If it does it would be revolutionary. How many videos have you watched where the premade smashing the PuGs said its a fair fight? Hell I wouldn't mind facing a premade if it meant getting heavy compensation for sticking around an obviously unfair match of being smashed. But if your dead set on your ideals then watch you queue times reach to hours.

Unless your heals your fodder. DPS wise its like they expected us to run circles around melee but instead we get smashed, interrupted, stunned and taken out in less then 5 seconds. Its a trial getting away from melee, even there leap is on such a short CD for the range it has your wondering why your getting cut in two. Its the same with mercs as well. Look its pretty clear that sorcerers are just garbage when dishing out damage at the most we can merely stick with the pack and provide utility but on our own we need to really get the drop on people. Hell a fully procced buffed lightning sorcerer doesn't do nearly enough damage compared to the meaty melee and health/armor other classes have. All our defenses are based on CCing the other person which wouldn't be a problem if our damage could help wound them. Electrocute which obviously should be on a much shorter CD if its meant to help our defense is just a clone of the bounty hunter electrocute dart and they wear heavy armor and pack health. Biggest problem was that our healing was the only thing helping fights last longer but they decided to nerf that and incidentally nerfed sorcerers/mercs to the ground. Unless they devote 1.6 to PvP rebalancing its just going to be a pain playing sorc.

I really hope the release a lekku change so males can have one massive lekku instead of two.

About right. Right now I have no clue what they are planning. In oceanic APAC areas there are no advertisment campaigns to tell others its improved free to play system. They don't even run normal ads. So there isn't very much new players coming in. So why not just X- server us. They did such a crappy half assed job in assessing which servers should belong with which. The consolidation did absolutely nothing and I bet there were areas in the US that would of been fine on the APAC line. Bottom line is this. 1: They X-server us but with US based servers to fill the gap, so where back to ping being in their favor. 2: They give up on the APAC and just transfer us to US realms. 3: They actually came up with a solution but are holding out because they are busy with US customer concerns. It will always end with oceanic being 4th world customers. Even though we have the population to make them rich.
