  1. Starship was cool to get, but i wouldnt exactly call 2 cut scenes of your ship flying in space "travelling the galaxy" And why does my ship auto take off everytime i just enter it? Seems kinda non fuel effeciency to just take off everytime i need to talk with my companions or use my target dummy
  2. Suggestion, add an elevator destination from fleet to a duel area deck? That way you insure the instance wont affect the rest of the fleet and ppl who wants to duel or watch duels can just go down to that deck.
  3. This is such an easy fix from Bioware to make everyone happy reguarding this horrid interface issue. Option: - Autoskip introdution videos from warzones ☑ Fixed. But not only that, lets go in über customer support mode here: - Autoskip conversation dialogue from quests ☑ - Show class story dialogue ☑ Shame bioware wont listen to the ppl actually playing their game every day.
  4. I totally agree on this, i remember playing arathi basin endlessly aswell and it was great fun everytime. Maybe because you rode out on mounts at beginning it felt a bit more epic than just getting released from a room with a shield on lol, but yea logic is simple, If the pvp is fun, the warzones will just boost this feeling, but if the pvp is not fun, the warzones wont make enough difference for you to enough pvp. Personally i think bw did a huge mistake adding so many stuns in the game. Whats the fun in spending half your time pvping waiting to control your char.
  5. My logical reason to unsub was that ive cleared the story and content on 3 different chars. There is nothing more for me to do so i don't want to pay just to stand in fleet. My emotional reason to unsub was all my m8s left the game months ago and i have lost the fun with the game now and with its developers (Ilum fix 2013??) Which reason weighs the most? Id say properly the emotional one because if i still liked the game i would properly make a 4th char, or a 5th etc. but too many bad design choices and rollercoasting "feel" makes me feel like this "ride" is now over. I guess i just liked the theme too much of the rollercoaster that i took a few more runs. And to the guy that said its ppl own fault for not adapting to the game problems when fx ghost town servers started appearing, then i say no its really not. Another bioware design choice that ended horribly, this one related to server numbers/capacity etc. and you cant expect ppl just to start over because of a mistake not made by them. Personally myself i didnt leave because of gw2, the theme doesnt interested me, starwars did, and i properly wont come back because the emotional reasons will still be the same, and they simply just weigh heavier than the logical reasons.
  6. Funny thing is i played wow aswell from beta till wrath. And i can tell you that in Vanilla wow, i did not go through content as fast as ive done in this game. Do you remember the time it took to get your dungeon set in vanilla wow? Many runs, and when you finally got your last piece, what a bliss And then you were ready to step into molten core and after that BWL. I dont even remember making an alt before end of vanilla because i was so busy doing stuff on my main. In this game, it just feels lot faster to level and alot less to do once at 50. But i am not blaiming bw for this, it is clear they want to focus mainly on the story questing mode, but after a few runs through the same content over and over (very linear path, not like wow where you could choose to level in a different zone if you wanted) you just burn out. That and the silence from bioware where they keep so limited info to us just frustrates me aswell. At times like these where many loyal gamers from start is just basicly waiting for new content, changes, ilum news etc. you should not keep that silent. But yea as i said, i finally decided to cancel my frustration.
  7. Hehe, well i was just putting it the best way i knew how it feels Girls come and go but gaming is 4 life! Nah but i think a lot of ppl like myself had great hopes and faith in biowares final product after so many years of development and it is just disheartening to see now how the developers are handling things leaving us players in the dark, taking long silence breaks where nothing is updated. As OP said, next great things they talk about could still be months away and i for one have done every content there is many times and i simply just can justify for myself anymore spending more money and time on this dead girlfrie....GAME I shall miss the lightsabers alot, but time to move on.
  8. I know how you feel. I actually like the game, but i have never ever felt so left out on whats going on beyond the developer fortress as i have in this game. I understand that as just a customer we shouldnt be given explicit details on stuff if it is not ready but this time in between patches is just horrid. So far we've only got a short video of what is coming but not as you say in detail or any announced date. Ive played since december and when 1.2 hit and ranked was delayed, i gave them a chance. When my server was almost reduced to a ghosttown i stayed and tried keeping my guild active grapping as many ppl in as i could. When ppl burnt on waiting for ranked warzones only getting wh hero piece slowly i also stayed. When people left for D3 i also stayed. Now, i have maxed my 3rd char in full gear and a few days back after even more ppl left for GW2, i sat for one minute and re-evaluated if i should make a 4th alt but i just couldn't find the will for it. I have been loyal as long as i could, but this company has got A LOT to learn on how you keep your customers happy and being so silent or giving us 10 questions each week without any proper juice on them just makes you feel so left behind and basicly just that they dont care if you stay or not. So i have unsubbed now and i can tell you, the feeling of moving on is good. Its like being in one of those relationships you just know wont work but dont have the strenght to end aswell. But enough is enough now. I am not gonna sit around waiting for any small updates or level just another alt just because that is the only thing to do atm. Bioware if you ever read this, you have dissapointed me to the heart, you had every possibility to make me stay but the speed of your updates and shutting yourself inside your small little developers world doesn't make ppl feel connected to your game and i for one will not support this with my wallet anymore. I will be checking out the new moba game called Smite, tried a few games already and i am having loads of fun with a game once again.
  9. Cant expect a random player to be aware of where you are and his target is all the time. Dps is properly most of the time in tunnelvision mode, i know when im on my dps char my primary focus is on my target, if he is casting something that needs to be interupted, cds etc. my secondary focus is if he is being helped by a teammate so i must switch or if a ranged enemy is on me aswell and i can los him while still dpsing my target. after that then maybe i check to see where my healer is but as i said, you cant except random strangers to play by your rules. If he dies and calls you a noob then just shake your head, they will properly never know what dance you did in order to keep on landing heals on him My mains a sorc healer dunno if yours is aswell but a pull is fun when you had enough of this frustration
  10. They can introduce as many warzones they want but if there is not a better pvp balance than this crap we got going on atm, then no new wz is gonna make pvp more fun! Fix whats broken first instead of adding more golden poo on top of the excisting!
  11. I move around my target alot to make sure i dont get knockbacked in the wrong direction (down a hill, over edge of something etc.) I only jump when i need to keep moving away from you and jump in the air and turn mid air to do a railshot while continueing same direction. Rest of the jumping is mostly because of ppl are excited i guess
  12. Speaking as a healer here, reason why you properly see more stealths in game is because the best healer class atm is Operative. I at least have noticed more and more op healers around. But yea i dunno really why you wouldnt just go 8 stealths lol, nobody would know where you going to. Assasins and ops can cover every role in pvp
  13. My main is a sorc, after that i made a juggernaut, after that i made a pt. Ever since my pt got some gear i have targetted the marauders just for revenge These tears are priceless to me. Now you know how it feels being a sorc vs your marauder you spoiled *** dps class! God i love stealth scanning a marauder trying to get away with camo, whos laughing now aye? WHOS LAUGHING NOW lol p.s I am AP spec btw, so i am not worried about the upcoming range nerfs cuz i already operate close range, pyro boys looks like they gonna get spanked tho
  14. I have a full combat tech geared AP pt and yes for ranked my opinion is burst>mobility so pyro>ap there. in normal warzones i just love ap too much it is just too much fun seing every sorc or merc use their knockback and *** Nothing happends?? lol immolate is also by my opinion one of the coolest looking animation in the game, it just looks like someone has dropped a napalm bomb oh and the extra speed is so addictive, whenever i am out of AP cylinder i just feel like i have a constant slow on me lol but yea nothing beats the burst potentional of pyros TD+RS

    Sorcs in PvP....

    errr, lol dunno if this is your first time on swtor forums, but devs hardly steps out of their developer fortress to adress whats going on with the rest of us "villagers" Devs stated with 1.2 changes that they made it to increase the level of difficulty of sorcs. No more easy mana regen system and no more just spamm our big heal only with reduced cast time. Problem is our flash heal isnt enough now to counter the big hits around wzs and our big heal gets interupted everytime unless the dps is total moron. Okay so take it up a notch on skill you say. Lets start using fake casting, which would be fine if we werent so damn squishy. You dont got time to stand in front of a dps and hope he falls for fake casting. In fact you dont have time to stand still at all when a dps is on you. I havent logged my sorc healer for weeks now theres no point atm and going in just to be the "hey its a sorc focus him" guy, nah, done that for 90 valor levels, time to have some fun with other classes far less broken. Hurts though seing all the op healers run around just spamming instant heals and staying alive. Or the mercs standing total immune to interupt under their shield. And then you spot a fellow sorc getting charged at during force speed >.< If you want to know how the devs really feel about our class, go read the 4 part pvp set bonus. [/sorc]
  16. Yea this design choice has been bugging my mind ever since i joined the game aswell. Making a standard body selection whichever race you select leads to a very boring and monotone appearance overall from lots of players. You cover up your head and nobody can see what race you are... I think i see the same 2 body types every wz i enter and thats the 2 (normal size) and the 3 (body guard size) Nothing btw makes me lol more than to see a huge *** sorcerer with muscles and all that, because yea, the emperor visited the gym every day right? lol Oh well, this is why swtor will never claim the mmo throne. Just too many design choice mistakes that has a huge impact on how you enjoy your individuality. Making everyone do emotes the same way, dance, sit the same way etc. was the second. Making the sets of main classes look the same but just color the advanced class sets differently was third mistake. Take the assasin and sorcerer, do these 2 adv classes seem like they should have same look? One is a rogue ish attacker and other one is a mage kinda class.. horrible boring bw design, ppl will get bored fast (if not already) and now we get a human that just looks like he got his face painted in an amusement park like a tiger
  17. Depends what other classes get aswell with the cap level increase. Giving the current TTK on sorcs, they should add this ability now
  18. Whats your valor level at on your sage? Madness has too low dmg from dots atm to stand up with rest of dps classes in pvp. Deathfield (force in balance) is the only high burst abiltiy they have and that just doesnt cut it vs 5k instants being thrown around regulary from other classes. Madness needs a little bit more dmg done from dots, a lil bit more force back from the talent (2% is enough) and they would be in a great state. Can add a small cd to the dots if they need to for preventing massive dmg padding done from just spamming dots. But atm they just tickle other ppls hp pool and suffer from great force problems in long pvp action. (its often just easier dying to get force back than actually regenerating it)
  19. what, 5 seconds shield is a terrible way of fixing sorcs. Might aswell just rename the class Bubblespammer. Guess what, you didnt fix balance, far from. Sorcs in general needs a defensive cooldown, madness needs higher dot dmg and more force recovery, lighting needs lesser cast times and builds up from procs and healer tree needs shorter cast times aswell and or something similar to lightings root/mez defenses so we dont have to spec hybrid just to be able get a heal off before being attacked again.
  20. Are we playing the same game? If any swtor is the worst mmo for rpg'ers. You cant sit and interact with almost everything in the game. Theres hardly ANY rpg items you can use to roleplay (a few jukeboxes and sparkles gg) Wow has million fun trinkets/items you can use just to rp. Theres no chat boxes, no emote sounds and every person SITS /DANCES/EMOTESTHE SAME gosh darn WAY. Legacy? COOL, nobody can see my legacy family but me....... The Story quests arent cooperative, its just you doing your story plus guest (and only if you arent the same main class)
  21. Yea you properly right, but i would still say that assasin tank should be tougher, but i dont have an assasin my self but i have tried my friends engi sniper for a while and yea they can be really tough. But obviously i mean when someone is directly dpsing you one on one and not with range factored in. Perhaps that is why the sniper has the cover because he has to sit back and cannot stealth, and the assasin has stealth cuz he has to be close range My pt doesnt have a problem with clearing snipers of their nests tho, just range stun it and pull
  22. Everyone that is upset about maras camo should try a shield tech powertech Every game i am just HOPING some mara will use it and i drop stealth scan and he stands there rooted and go like "HUH?" priceless but yea on topic, ability is fine, but cd should be a bit longer. Maras are without doubt the one class that gets the best defensive abilities in the game on the shortest cooldown. Rest of us has to actually decide whether to use the defensive cooldown vs the situation or save it till it matters (sorcs excluded obviously)
  23. A sniper is definitely not the fastest class to die of the dps in this game. Tried engineering with a few marksman points? Double shield probe with extra absorb, lesser cd on ballistic shield and overall dmg reduction. But if you want to survive the longest roll properly roll a assasin/shadow. Tank the dmg as much as you can, vanish if you couldnt take the dmg.
  24. My healer sorc hmm: Trash 200 hit, maybe 300 if target stands still My AP pt: Immolate fire spam frenzy omg i cant see where the enemy is at so many flames lol rocket punch his balls follow up by flame burst toasting flame throwing him down to meet his maker and if they runs railshot coming at ya grapple your *** GET OVER HERE, shoryuuuuuuuuuuuuuken again! I wonder what class i have the most fun on
  25. I think the major part is the gaming community has done alot of games now and there is less room for patience on actually playing a game and getting new stuff. Wow as you said didnt have warzones untill 6months in the game from launch, but back then the type of game was still new to many ppl. The community expects more today. At least basic things in a mmo. Swtor has failed on a lot of these basic things and paying a monthly subscription basicly just to wait is what i think made lots of ppl quit. I remember one of my own m8s who reached full BM before we were still waiting for 1.2 came out and there was just nothing for him to do. Naturally he quit. And when 1.2 finally came out, they cut one of the major content updates for pvpers which i bet made even more ppl drop the game. For a game as swtor i think f2p option will save them lots of subscribers. And i think introducing arenas requires a really good balance between classes. And at this point swtor has one of the worst pvp balance atm. On the catering to casual comment i think its because it makes more money. If you take a game that everyone can play, then you will get more playing it versus if you make a game very hard only a small group will accept that challenge (because most ppl are committed to other than gaming) Its a delicate balance to both have something for casuals and hardcores. But i agree the feeling of having no challenge is worse than having a bit of challenge. I am glad i quit wow back when it was on top and not still playing with these pandas and pet fights coming to the game, cuz the level of target audience is now at a riduculas low almost being kindergaarden stage.
