That happened to me a few times, I had to go to the process windows (Ctrl-Shift-Esc, if that doesn’t work try Ctrl-Alt-Del instead) and close the swtor.exe process manually to force the game to close. It's no ideal, but it's better than a complete reboot...

Not sure if it’s the answer you’re looking for but...: “We’ve obviously heard the concerns from the community, which really boils down to one specific thing: In order to get my set bonus — which makes me as powerful as I can be — I need six out of seven specific items. What happens if I don’t ever in the 300 levels of Galactic Command end up with the piece that I need? We have a couple of thoughts on that. One, if in the future it turns out to be a problem, then we will be flexible. There are a lot of ways to solve this. We have talked about for people over a certain Command Rank adding a vendor just let them buy the missing piece that they have. If you get to Command Rank 200 and you never got the boots, all right you can go and buy the boots because you’ve played enough of the game.“ http://massivelyop.com/2016/12/02/swtor-knights-of-the-eternal-throne-launches-today-we-chat-with-bioware/

On my female sith warrior, paraphrasing the npc... Random imperial agent: They call it operation SunShower Me: You Andelerian are entirely too cheerful *Vette approves*

Maybe it,s because of that : http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?p=8589735#edit8589735

You are aware that in few months Bioware will release an entire expansion for free; right?.

The point of PVE servers is to remove the risk of non consensual PVP. In other words i should only be flag if and when i want to be engage in PVP , and not when a meatball decide to exploit a bug to gank me.

In my opinion you should upgrade your RAM first. It’s easy and cheap to add more RAM in a PC and you should see an improvement of your performance.

Only PVE.

Err.....Either we don't play the same game, or every player on your server is an Aman or a Baraka.....

You lose your old emote and get a new one.

I hate PVP with passion, so no I don’t feel that way at all. Maybe Eve-Online might be a better game for you.

I'm playing the devil advocate here, but since you receive free cartel coins each months, you will, eventually, have access to the new contents for free, so technically they didn’t lie. Personally, I had enough cartel coins to get the new race for free , I only paid for the race change , which is 'normal' in every MMO i know.

I agree with this and Bioware can put another subscription on the cancellation list….

I couldn't have found better words.

Yeah, I’m also considering going F2P because of this. And I like how Bioware ignore the issue; they could at least explain why they want to force PVP on PVE players.
