  1. I just want to clarify a few things here. After seeing how much greener the grass is in other games, SWTOR has failed me in more ways than one. I have a complete lack of confidence in this game and I may play it very casually in the future under the F2P model but for now, I am not contributing a single cent more to this train wreck. Now lets compare SWTOR to Rift... Customer Service Besides the lack of communication initially in this thread, I had an unpleasant experience with BW CS over the phone. I had to call an international number and I spoke to someone who wasn't that helpful and who's English was poor. I had problems with authenticating my account and they blamed me for it. After about 20 minutes the muppet worked out it was a restriction they put on my account. GG BW/EA!! I called Rift CS regarding getting the security on my account changed. I called a LOCAL number from Sydney and spoke to a CS representative in Dallas. He spoke clear English and even asked me how the weather was. He was most friendly and apologised due to the inconvenience of me having to call them. I felt very satisfied by contacting them. Server Transfers SWTOR is implementing this very poorly!!!! I have now been on 3 SWTOR servers due to previous servers being shut down. And before all the fan boys flame me about the APAC player base, we got the players, just EA/BW failed to deliver content etc etc etc... infact this shouldn't even be discussed here... their own failings drew the players away. OH AND SERVER TRANSFERS COST YOU MONEY!!!! The current transfer system sucks Rift allow you to transfer any of your characters once per week to any ruleset of servers and all you have to do is log into the game, click transfer, select your shard, then type "transfer" to confirm. Under their F2P model they have mentioned they still may keep this free which is great!!! Game Engine SWTOR is well... bad. Dont blame my PC either, it runs everything great. Loading screens are slow, world PVP just cant happen, you cant even have more than 16 players in a WZ as the engine is bad.They cant even implement speach bubbles, plus lots of other things that have been mentioned over and over in other posts. Rift loads in minimum time, you can even multibox if you are one of those that like that kind of thing. I can run the game in Ultra mode with nil issues. PvP can have tonnes of players running around without the game dropping to <10 FPS. Cross Server Integration Well SWTOR sucks... no x server PVE instances or PvP warzones... see point above regarding bad game engine. Rift is awesome, cross server war fronts, raids, dungeons, you can even visit shards etc where you have friends. F2P Model SWTOR is terrible. Its pay to play (enable run, actions bars etc etc) and the Cartel Market is a complete rip off. Coming June 12 and it looks awesome!!! Pretty much everything is on offer with only a few minor restrictions but NO WHERE NEAR as restrictive as SWTOR I could go on and on and on. I think the biggest problem with SWTOR is that Electronic Arts, the company voted the worlds worst company 2 years in a row is behind this game. EA only care about one thing and that is money. After going back to Rift recently and seeing just how awesome the game is and how generous TRION have been with RAPTR rewards and the recent announcement of their F2P model.... SWTOR is just a major turn off for me now... Im really sad that I now feel the way I do about SWTOR. This game had so much potential but it's just been ruined for me. Anyways feel free to flame me abuse me or whatever. I wont be replying as I think I have to pay for that. My game time ends tomorrow. Adios <3 Chippy PS!!! Thanks to everyone that has made this thread awesome!!! IT IS THE MOST DISCUSSED THREAD SINCE LAUNCH and will be a constant reminder of how things can go wrong and how a community can unite as one and try and take on the cash driven Electronic Arts!!! Thanks for your support!!! Haters gonna hate but to the rest of you, thanks again! PPS i'm Chipy@seastone in rift.
  2. Well I have transfered my characters to The Harbinger... Doubt I will ever come back to the game... 5700 posts later and I am back to where I started, on a US server, what a waste of time and effort. I will not contribute a single dollar more to these thieves that run this game. EA/BW has ruined SWTOR for me.
  3. this issue is beyond a joke. Its the main reason why I stopped playing the game. Absolutely terrible.
  4. This issue is just beyond a joke now. I purchased a 60 day pass and the expansion pack. What a waste of money that was. I've been playing other MMOs recently and it really puts into perspective just how bad this game is in most aspects... The engine is bad, the F2P model is woeful, the customer service is just abysmal!!! Why should I contribute any more money to those corporate fat cats at EA? At the end of the day the muppets managing this game do not give 3/5s of sweet F all about the APAC community.
  5. Hi I have the full set but no spares sorry. I got this set when our server was booming and it still took me ages to collect. If you dont get it by the time transfers come up you will have no problems getting it on the Harbinger or the Bastion. Our population is just too woeful to make this set easy to get. Good luck <3 Chippy ps. I hope the dyes coming out dont ruin the uniqueness of this armor.
  6. good video, I enjoyed it <3 Chippy
  7. I am looking forward to the kiosk to be implemented but dreading the price they are going to charge
  8. Eric Musso Please give us a date for when all of this is going to happen????
  9. Wow a lot of impressive effort put into this thread! The only problem I see is that we are being shut down (god only knows when) so I wouldnt want to see that effort go to waste as they will most likely kill our sub server forums off. Maybe put it into google docs or something??? Preserve it forever, unlike this server... <3 Chippy
  10. Hey Guys, as I said, i'll be back, so here I am!!! I will keep this short and to the point! Thanks to everyone who has contributed to this thread!!!! It is one of the largest ever made for this MMO and it will be foot printed into the history of this MMO. It will be a constant hangover and a reminder of how things can go wrong in an MMO, particularly from the customer service side of things I am disappointed in EA's decision to shut down all APAC servers, they should of left at least one! I cant help but think that maybe this thread had something to do with Joveth Gonzalez leaving the game, and from a customer service and community point of view, this is a good thing. I think Eric Musso has done an awesome job of giving us the news, although it isnt what we wanted to hear. Please make an official announcement about this! See you in game (for now) <3 Chippy
  11. Im out!!! Posted about this in my consolidated thread. Have not renewed my subscription. I will return on the Xpac/Merges. Unfortunetly I think the xpac will be out first - Screw EA/BW - not a cent more for them from me anyway! Keep supporting my thread in the forums. Just over this really, and especially the tears from the whiny annoying RP people... jeebus they give me a headache. /love to BOSS Cya soon <3 Chippy PS - You can not have my stuff
  12. Thought I would start this post by quoting myself!!!! Seriously guys, keep this thread going, I wont be because I dont want to give another cent to this game until the servers are fixed. Im out!!! Subscription ends in three days and I have just cancelled it. I havent played in 6 weeks anyway, I have moved on. My reason for unsubscribing is quite simple... I just want to play on 1 united APAC super server. If we dont get that I will atleast come back when they xfer my characters somewhere else. Special thanks to everyone who has supported this thread! Thanks to the community on Master Dar'Nala and especially the guys and girls on BOSS!!!! I will come back if the expansion pack comes out before transfers i reckon that might actually happen So see you all again soon! Thanks for making this thread one of the most popular in SWTOR history!!! Might post something up on youtube in the next week or so! Keep an eye on my channel!!! <3 Chippy Ps. - to some of the RP people that post on here, glorifying your dead server gives me a headache and making PvPers out to be complete you know whats is just pathetic - you know who you are. Think of the APAC community as a whole and not just yourselves. PPs - SHAME ON YOU BIOWARE/EA FOR DRAGGING THIS ISSUE OUT. ABSOLUTE DISGRACE!!!! - I know its not you Joveth, its your evil boss' and poor management. PPPs - I will be back - as soon as this issue is addressed/xpac comes out.
  13. I have Dont like having two separate legacies, I want all the chippy's on one server.
  14. Going to give it to the end of the week until I decide what to do next. I have barely played since Christmas. I'm currently playing rift, torchlight 2, apb reloaded and path of exiles. Most likely going to unsub from SWTOR until master dar nala characters are xfered to greener pastures. No point paying a sub if I'm not enjoying the game/ not playing. Seriously how much more time is this going to take, so over it. <3 Chippy
  15. servers/polls... whatever Action is what is needed. I stopped playing until whatever they do is implemented.
  16. Deary me... For someone that has made a positive contribution and taken a strong stance for the RP server in this entire thread, the post you just made has just done it for me. Back when I posted my 2 options in pretty blue after joveth called for suggestions I took into consideration the RP communities concerns mostly based on what you have written. Anyway what you put in the last paragraph has really changed my opinion on you but I won't share it on a public forum. Seriously mate pull your head in. You can spend ages building up a reputation and blow it all through one silly comment just like that. The fact you are getting so upset over a hypothetical scenario that we don't even know is going to happen makes me feel sorry for you. Whatever BW does is going to upset people, but we can't always get what we want, funny how life is like that... Three words come into mind, get over it. But enough of my wisdom. A name is a name, move on, I came up with the name Cheezfriend after my obsession with lolcats and I can has cheezburger. I came up with the name Chippy after eating a pack of Doritos when SWTOR went live at prelaunch...Some might think I'm a creative genius, some might just think I'm some weirdo that puts no forethought into their character names. Moving on... Come on BW drop your bombshell of a decision please!!! Keep the pressure up, keep it civil, keep it real. Yours in lolcats and eating Doritos. <3 Chippy
  17. Sorry but no. Joveth Gonzales said the below on 21 September 2012. Really they have NO EXCUSE to implement something right away or at least make an announcement.
  18. ^^^ Need a reply from BW, this thread is already starting to die off again, come on BW do something! Get me off Master Dar'Nala!!!
  19. Exactly A POLL is a good idea but we dont need it!!! They have sat on this for over 4 months, this thread is 229 pages by creating a poll it will only delay the outcome by another month (or 4!!!)
  20. We can only hope we get this soon, Joveth's post has restored some of my faith in an outcome but if they delay it, it's only going to get worse. I posted earlier how I played on MDN and the ping was amazing, there were large lag spikes but this is the first time I have experienced this. I just want this issue sorted, it's been soooooooooo long since I created this thread!
  21. Just played a couple of lowbie WZs on my Operative Healer on MDN... must admit the ping is pretty awesome... if only we had the population!! <3 Chippy
  22. A good suggestion however I think it's pretty clear what the majority of people want. In my opinion they have prolonged this enough, a decision must be made and implemented sooner than later. The longer they sit on the fence with this the more complicated its going to get. We will see the same issues recycled in one form or the other regarding this situation. ive said it before and I will say it again. BW/EA... Make a decision about this and make it happen. You will win back the APAC community if you act now. I acknowledge that no matter what happens people will be upset.... Failing that we can continue with the same old "what if" scenarios and be back to where we started... Under populated servers and an APAC community divided. Anyone else agree??? If so let put the pressure on them, after all its what we pay them for. <3 Chippy
  23. TBH i really dont know what the best solution is, only BW/EA does! As I said before they get paid the big bucks to make a decision to which they really should soon! But I think its great they are letting the APAC community have their say on what we want the most... all though wasnt there 1900 posts already mentioning this?!? Keep it real and keep the suggestions coming. Someone mentioned I should edit page 1 and post the top suggestions, this would be an epic task but I think BW/EA can do a bit of work for once regarding this issue <3 Chippy
