the conquest changes they made to stop people farming raid trash for leaderboard rankings killed alot of the big guilds.
Now they are changing more stuff to make people group up again to fix it. I could care less about conquest and just want a REAL expansion and letting my sub run out, and will only come back when they release one. Using content reruns that we had at launch for conquest is a nightmare to play. They need a real expansion, it is not worth a sub for outfits and cartel junk. The devs were playing ff14 and wanted to clone it with this your the hero of your own story bs, that failed. Just make a REAL expansion BW, quit messing around. I finally got Shae companion for leaving the sub on, since i missed the last 2 gives because of lack of content. Ugg guess this is a rant, but make a real expansion already please.

the june schedule says the merc seeker set is a reward for rak event. I can't seem to find it on vendors. Does anyone have a clue how we can earn this set? Ty

I've been with you guys since the start, but when you choose to add arena type combat to reg casual pvp, you really messed up,,, i'm not sure who's idea it was, but take a step back and look at it and realize that 4v4 is only meant for arena pvp ranked player base,,,i have know fkn clue who was in charge of this,but please look at the stats for pve and pvp player proggression, i don't even want to que anymore because it is so stupid , and has been for years! fix your game for the cash cows you want!!!!!
.
you need to look at the big picture,,,i know you were losing peps because of ques,, so pvp was so long, but that is not the case anymore with the server merges,,,put it back the way it was, and all will be fine,,,,,,,ty, gg

I'm not talking about cxp, that is a different topic. I'm talking about loot rewards from flashpoint bosses. Instead we get blue or green cxp items from bosses. The rng i'm talking about is rng on loot, be it robes, armor or what ever.
-
I've been a sub off and on since launch. I love running dungeons/flashpoints, even the solo mode is fun. You screwed up by taking real loot out of these adventures/missions. You should leave your stupid cxp items on other things, put real loot, like armor or weapons at the bosses and bonus bosses. If you have ever played a dungeon game, the boss loot rng is half the fun of it, you don't have a clue if your putting cxp boost in as boss rewards. Wake up devs, please.
If you insist on us running old content to play your game, freaking put random armor or weapons in it for rewards. Ty , and happy life day.

The problem with that is SF has the bigger population at 11.30 last night SS had 2 imp fleets last night and about the same pub side. Last night same time on SF 4 imp fleets and 3 pub fleets people on fleet lsat night could care less if rp were rping....
This is not true, i was on both SS and SF, and they both had 4 instances of fleet up. Both had around 170 players.

I played from the start. Most of you people don't get the reason why the game lost so many subs and had to go free to play to begin with, was because of the vanilla game. Walking on foot on tat before you could get your speeder, getting a group for heroics was not as easy as you remember. And content wise, it was lacking before makeb, and makeb sucked. Most left after they finished class story with one character, they did not want to grind again, because a grind is what it was, because of the lack of content. I'm not saying it was not fun once on both factions, but that was it. And you did have to do every mission on every planet, with class story, and sometimes bonus to get ahead. All this is why it failed and had to go free.
This post is like that south park episode, member berries, lol

Read thru the forums and you will see I am far from a fan boi, whoever the poster you were replying to with this was correct, I tried after the balance and things were much better, we do not need a return to 4.0 and if you haven't even bothered trying don't bother typing.
i just did try it. and it still sucks. I did try it out. it was even better before 4.0 comp wise.
-
Please quit so we can stop seeing these idiotic threads. Bioware already catered to you enough.
the fix did not fix anything. I'm done also..
-
The companions are a lot better than 4.02 nerf. Maybe you should try them before you start demanding. Also, the companions in 4.0 were OP. There is no way they are going to put them back at that level, nor should they.
they are not in a better place,,,,i for one before 4.0 had my fav comp maxed in gear and all tweaked, they op, and i could do anything i want with them,,,i worked hard for this,,, so 4.0 was not really that big change (treek) was always an op comp anyway healer and tank.
And since i can't gear my pets crazy the way i want to play, they fix them with 4.0 and lev sync, ,,,,, I just tried this on my low level alts to see if the new patch fixed anything, no, they still suck,, healing and damage and tanking on reg mobs,,, which was not the case even in before 4.0. i'm done

Your user id is #2,555,612, and there weren't 1.7million subscribers until February of 2012.
It was certainly NOT the "selling point" for the Xpack, that is the most ridiculous thing I have read on these forums to date, and that is saying a whole lot.
No one even knew about the 4.0 companions until 7 days before the expansion was released, and they only lasted for 20 days after the release. It didn't even warrant attention until the excitement over the expansion had time to cool down and
.You are making all this nonsense up as you go.
i was subbed at launch day, when the servers were so packed , and you could not get in. Yes this account has been here since day 1. maybe i did unsub, and get changed somehow with the ftp bs. not sure what your problem is, but you need to get out more.
-
If you're so reactionary that you can't be bothered to even look at the numbers people are posting or try them yourself then honestly you would just end up quitting for some other banal reason soon enough anyway. 4.0 companions were OP, I'm sorry you don't feel that way but they were. The current level of companions may even be OP, but they are in a better place than 4.0 and a much better place than 4.02.
But, as I say, if you are unwilling to even look at a compromise then I don't really see you as a long term subscriber.
I did check it out on several alts,, Lower levels, and I'm dying on content that I would of never died on before 4.0,,,and with this fix, its not even noticeable. So ya, i did try.
-
Being able to use whatever companion you wanted was a major selling point, yes. I would argue that companions being "OP" wasn't exactly the selling point, but it doesn't matter. And I agree that I feel they went overboard hugely in 4.02. However, they have swung it back around quite a bit in 4.02a and I would recommend if you like 4.0 to at least give the game a couple days of your time before deciding it is beyond recovery. While 4.02a is definitely a nerf from 4.0, it is not one that creates the bottleneck you saw in 4.02.
People are now able to complete heroics and have fun doing so. Companions are not as good as the best players at this time, but they are very strong and able to hold their own in a fight, or keep you alive if you choose. Healing has been moved from bursts to HoTs, but overall it is stronger than you think.
I will check on my alts while i have some more days on account.. To feel it out.
-
It really doesn't matter who was subbed when. The fact of the matter is that you want to quit over what amounts to a small nerf before even trying it yourself. Your demand to return to something that was almost universally agreed to be OP is unreasonable and there's really nothing that can be done for someone like that.
I'm not going to try and dissuade you from leaving because at the end of the day it is your dollar and you should enjoy the game if you are going to subscribe. However, I don't think you are right that most people will feel the way you do. There have already been a lot of people who are happy with this or would even be happy with a little less that have come back.
I know that I already feel a lot better about buying CCs and recommending the game than I did last week.
I see what your saying, they knew the companions were op with 4.0, this was the selling point for the expac. Not sure if you know this, but this is fact. The bottleneck they are trying to create won't hold a lot of people.
-
I think subscriber #227 has a bit of a better grasp on this situation then you know, you can use your all the fan-boy tropes you want it doesn't diminish the fact that your reaction is selfish and emotional and your opinion doesn't mean a fraction of what you think it does. I hope you do unsubscribe, because this game doesn't need people who are going to cry for the return of something that the developers have unequivocally stated was a mistake, just so they can have a chance to play the game.
Its funny how the amount of reason that a poster has is directly proportionate to the lower their user id # is.
yes, i was subbed with this account at launch,
-
Listen mate, I didn't want the companions to be nerfed either. But the devs are doing their best to balance them out and make the game enjoyable for as many people as possible. That's all we can ask for. What you're saying is pretty much "give me what I want or I'm leaving, regardless of what is actually good for the game." That's just self-entitlement.
^ This part I do agree with though. I don't think it was laziness, but I also don't agree at all with not allowing us to customize their gear.
I see what your saying, but the only reason they were nerfed was because they are scared that blowing threw content to fast will cause them to drift to another game. They need to worry about getting chapters once a month so we can keep our subs going for new content. The new rush of players will stay subbed for the stories. The new rush of players will stay subbed to play alts, and power level through the old content to get to end game faster, because most don't want a fresh 60, unless they have ran it every what possible.
The happy medium is not going to work to keep people, since the ones that came back, did not just come back because they got an email for swtor.com, they came back at all the good hype in the forums over the companions.
And my companions before 4.0 were decked and OP (worked really hard for this),,,,and not having any control over this anymore is bs.

i beta tested this product basically at launch before ftp,,, and was subbed still at ftp, and came back now and then for w/e reasons subbed only,,, not ftp, so i think i know. My reactions are justified with out fan boy bias.
-
I won't sub again until its 4.0, and they have comp customization for new companions. they can lie at reasons for the nerf, but they know its either keep the cattle grazing or they won't be eating. They just don't realize if they don't adjust it back to 4.0, they won't have anything to eat next year.
Disney will pick someone to do a better job and will want a new mmo that is cross platform for pc and consoles.
And will realize that EA/BW is hurting star wars more then helping it.

I came back to the game after reading the changes with 4.0 and the forums were all happy, with some saying op companions. I enjoyed my 2 weeks before the nerf. I cancelled my sub with the nerf patch and won't re-sub until you put it back the way it was at 4.0. I don't care What the devs or game designers goal is for a business model, they lost me a year ago with there ideas, and now that they have something with story, based on companions that they nerfed for what ever reason they pretend to keep people around longer in there tunnel vision idea won't work. You lost with your vision a year ago, and now your going to lose me and many others, because you just don't get it.
I won't resub until its 4.0, i could care less about your adjusting bs, and won't deal with it. I'm not a compromise, your selling a product, then change the product.
And another thing, give new companions customization models for gear and such,,, how lazy ,,,,,don't release them like you did with the ewok and hk. I mean really an expac with companions with no customization, I mean you guys take the cake. I mean, who is running this thing??????????
-
I unsubbed,, i think anyone that hates the patch should unsub. I hope someone from disney is watching this and they pull the license at some point. Contracts or not.
-
they moved unsub post with 21k views to off topic, alot of them are there, the nerf is a gen topic to discuss. Hiding it won't fix anything.
-
you of course can prove to where the 4.0 advertising advertised "SUPER OP COMPANIONS"?
they did, and the hype in forums of people loving the changes, so we all came back to have some fun.
They got us, conned us, and now we are leaving, some will stay, hoping they change it back, but they won't.
They already got the cash in the bank.
-
Found it.
Player base is a little whiny and entitled though, so your mileage may vary.
you whine daily on these forums, this is about all i can agree with that you have posted ever!
-
level sync, made the game so you could not over level anymore,,, if you got ahead on one planet you could cake most of the other. They took that away with the sync, the powerful companions fixed this, and made it more fun to level. Now that they are nerfed, level sync makes no since. I tried last night to test it on cor with my JK,,, a gold killed me and kara, not an elite, a gold, and we were same level, and i had gear, and it still killed me. I have never died on the second planet of either faction ever since launch.
she could not heal me through the damage. This is not a player issue, this is a level sync/companion not built right for content issue.
What a joke
