I would have to agree. Silly that we are catering to Europe. Do their downtime at a different time. It's borderline criminal to charge 15 bucks a month for a game that is missing most basic modern mmo features, and then bring the server down at MIDNIGHT twice a week. 12 am is just patently too early for downtime. If it's that time to make it a reasonable time for Europe then do something to isolate the EU. We don't give a **** about the EU at all. I really don't care. Stop taking the server down at 12. Its ********

I really hope this thread stay alive and that Bioware reads this thread... this is what the people want Bioware. Personally, I really want to like this game. And I do like this game. And leveling from 1-50 was a pleasure. But the game has not been a pleasure since 50. To the point that I resubbed to WoW just to see if it was better (haven't played it in a long time). It wasn't. It was pretty bad. But the fact still remains that I was trying to find something else to play besides this game. The game is fine, but it's missing so many standard features. It's like selling a car with windows that don't go down, or no air conditioning or something. You just wouldn't do it. Why is there no Addon support? Why are there no Dual Specs? Why is there no LFG tool? Why is the PvP gear random? It should really be a currency system and you choose what you buy. In it's current incarnation it's very frustrating. Why is Ilum so haphazard and half done? I want to like your game, but it costs 15 bucks a month. And it's not like we are getting a discount while you make the game right. Even though you rushed out the game for Xmas missing loads of basic features, we are still paying the 15 bucks a month. Fix your game quick if you want to hold onto your subs.

This is a great question. I have a lot more than 3 wishes for this game, but if I had to cut it down to 3... 1) LFG Tool, preferably Cross Server. Now I know there's all the purists out there who lose their cool anytime you mention cross server anything, but you people need to remember that these aren't WoW servers. These servers are freakishly empty. There's like 120 people on the Fleet at a time, all the planets are empty, etc. Not to take into account faction imbalance. The Tool would need to be Cross Server to be useful. 2) Dual Spec. I don't get why some people feel the need to impose how they want to play on others. Some people don't want Dual Spec, are happy without Dual Spec etc. And that's fine. I'm not going to tell you that you should or shouldn't use Dual Spec. So why do you feel the need to tell me how to play? If you are happy only fulfilling one role, then fine. But some of us like to play multiple aspects of the game, at max efficiency. For example, I am a Tank. And I actually prefer Tanking in PvP in this game as well. But my PvE Tank Spec and my PvP Tank Spec just aren't the same. What does anyone care if when I go into a WZ I switch like 4-5 talent points into PvP talents? Really? 3) Cross Server Ilum. Right now Ilum is sometimes empty, sometimes filled with Pubs, sometimes filled with Empire. There's no consistency to the zone. I just really wish that they would make it instanced and Cross Server, so that the zone would always be full and with equal players on both sides. Say across all servers, the first 80 people to enter Ilum enter one instance, and once that's full, you start filling up a new Ilum. It would massively help the zone. edit: Oops! Forgot maybe the most important thing. 4) Addons. Need meters, bar mods, threat, bag mods, UI mods, def need a map mod, could use something like Gatherer

You must be doing something very very very wrong. I am currently level 47 and have experienced nothing like what you are saying. I have died questing maybe a total of 7-8 times since level 1. Talos is good for sustaining you during trash and just questing around, so you have no downtime. Pull Khem out when fighting Elites. You should really never ever die, I can't see how you would. And if your biggest attack is going 1k dmg at lvl 44 then something is very very wrong. I hit for about 2.5k with Maul/Discharge/Assassinate/Tumult. I just respecced Tank cause my group needs me to tank, and now I couldn't go below 75% health if I tried. You fail man. You fail hard.

The midnight downtime really sucks. I can't believe that they think it makes sense or is ok to have downtime at midnight on an MMO. I usually log in at like 9-10 pm on weekdays, and play til like 2 am. Why would they bring down the servers in a lot of peoples prime time??? They need to split the downtime so that the US can have reasonable downtime and the EU can have it's own reasonable downtime. Why are we in the west coast of the US punished with downtime cause it will cut into EU daytime gameplay? that is 6-8,000 miles away.

God you crybaby whiners make me sick... it is a troll post. This guy wants infinite on point respawns that never take more than one minute... First of all I would say that while soloing (aside from world Pvp of course), I have probably died a total of maybe 5 times while questing. I have never, ever, ever seen the med probe respawn be more than like 29 seconds. If you are dying so much that you have a 10 minute respawn you either are very very bad, or very stubborn and won't leave an area that you clearly can't handle. The fact that you can even respawn on your body is ridiculous. Even WoW doesn't let you do that. People should be thankful that you never have to do corpse runs in this game.

The problem is the video card. That GT335M... no you shouldn't be using that.

Yah these orbital stations are ridiculous. Just blatant time wasting travel... it's annoying as hell. Why in god's name can you not mount in the orbital stations?

Ah the irony. This guy says Deception is the worst PvP spec, while telling someone they don't know what they are talking about... ***?

First off, if you are soloing in your tank spec, you should be using Talos not Andronikos or Khem. Of course you are going to be taking damage if you are the one the mobs are focusing. So, be smart, use the healer. Aside from that, I agree. We need powerauras or something, a visual effect that shows us when procs come up.

Because everything is in that class already. Posts like this make me wonder if the poster is just flat out stupid, drooling in front of their screen... Everything in one class? How is getting to switch between 2 of 3 trees (not even everything in one Advanced Class), out of 2 ACs totaling 6 trees for the class getting "everything in one class". It's not even like through respec you can tank and heal. There is no AC that can both tank and heal. You say if you want to roll a healer then roll a healer. Ok. I want to roll a healer. I also like to duel and want to be able to win duels. If I am a healer, am I just supposed to give up on duels, and give up on killing people in PvP? Am I just supposed to give up on an engaging playstyle solo? Being able to play the way I want to play Solo, and be able to play the way that other people want me to play when I play with those people (heals or tank depending on AC) is far from having everything in one class. Why are some people such masochists who want to it be as artificially grindy and restrictive just for the sake of the grind and for the sake of the inconvenience.

I'm sorry man. Maybe you have some kind of ultra fortitude, but to normal people leveling as a healer is painful. And for 15 dollars a month we should be able to solo how we want and group how we want. It doesn't hurt anybody. The person who uses it gains, the people who don't use it gain cause now you have a healer/tank where you once had a DPS. So everyone gains and no one loses. I don't see the problem.

They're not confirmed. The first really good post about them was something like "They'd like to add them soon after launch", and then later there was a nother statement that backtracked slightly. I would say that's very very far from confirmed. And I'm very worried about putting lots of time into this game if Dual Spec isn't coming to this game. And I don't mean 6 months from now.

What if switching specs had a long cooldown? People who are against Dual Spec seem to be very much against the idea of switching back and forth willy nilly, say between every boss fight. What if it was on a 3 hour cooldown. Long enough to choose your spec for the duration of a Raid Night, but short enough to be able to queue up for some Warzones in your PvP spec afterwards? To me this sounds like a reasonable compromise.

Why do some people not understand this. Why do some people want to control everything, and just cause they don't like something, no one should get it. It makes no sense to me. First of all, I don't even see the downside of Dual Spec. The most common bad things I hear about it is that it: makes everyone the same makes things "ez-moad" makes bad tanks/healers 1. First of all, Dual Spec in no way makes everyone the same. All the different classes are entirely different still. All the trees are exactly the same as without Dual Spec. In fact, as far as gameplay, LITERALLY NOTHING CHANGES. You are still using/facing off against the same specs that have always been there. The only difference, is instead of flying to the fleet, walking all the way to the guy, paying a ludicrous amount of credits, flying all the way back to wherever you were, you can just change where you are. That's the only difference. Either way, you still get to change. So for all the people who say Dual Spec doesn't make any sense, you shouldn't be able to go back and forth. You already can go back and forth. We are just asking for them to remove the restrictive cost and over the top travel time. 2. Once again, it in no way makes anything ez mode, cause nothing gameplay wise has changed. Imagine one person who is Dual Specced DPS/Heals. Now imagine another person who has single spec, and is DPS, but is about to change to Heals. The first guy swaps from his DPS spec to his Heal spec, and starts healing Boss X. The second guy goes out and respecs into his Heal spec, and starts healing Boss X. The content is still exactly the same. Nothing has changed. The only thing that was easier was the travel time being shortened and the cost being lowered. That's all. If to you you think that running to the fleet and spending a lot of credits and wasting a bunch of time takes "skill" or is "hard to do" and by removing the travel time and the high cost you make the game EZ MODE and WoW 2... Listen to your logic. Think about it for a second. NOTHING CHANGES. ALL IT DOES IS REMOVE TRAVEL TIME AND COST. THE GAMEPLAY IS UNAFFECTED. 3. Bad Tanks/Healers exist because normal people are looking to solo and pvp in Support Specs. For dedicated group players, you can main that spec and it's fine. If you are constantly grouping, constantly running Flashpoints, etc. then leveling as a tank/healer might be okay. But some people just prefer to solo. I for one prefer to solo. My guild and my group need me to tank, I want to tank, but I'm not willing to level in a tediously slow spec that underperforms greatly in PvP to tank a few 4 mans on the way up. Like I wonder sometimes if these people who are against Dual Spec even PvP. If you are just raw tank specced, do you really not care that you may as well just never Dual, you may as well give up on big games in PvP? Yah you can still do great/useful stuff, lots of D, Guard, CC, etc. but you aren't going to be topping the damage charts or the KB charts. Some people want to tank and still be able to PvP as a DPS. Why do you care what we do. We could just go to the fleet and respec to PVP DPS spec, do a few rounds, respec back to Tank, but you don't care about that? That is a non issue? But if we can do the exact same thing, but faster and without penalty, now it's a problem? Just remember. You are being NO people. There are NO people and YES people. NO people want things their way, want everyone else to do things their way, shoot down ideas, protect the status quo, just being generally disagreeable, argumentative, and you think you are superior. Honestly you people are like the Sith, you are like the Dark Side!!! We are trying to say YES, we want change, we want options, choices, flexibility, freedom, change, we want things to stay fresh, we want to change and evolve and we want to do it without the heavy burden of prohibitive and restrictive costs and meaningless and gratuitous travel times.
