  1. i feel ya, the chracters i made on Christmas 2011 lost their names to this shoddy transfer... the ones i associated with the most, i was most attached to... of course i don't expect those 50+++ character people to understand something like Character Attachment and Identity...
  2. i made those characters on Dec. 25 2011, when Sedyn Kyne was a server, and i'm willing to bet the people that got the names probably didn't have them that far back... hardly seems fair to me... they should have figured out what to do about multiple names before merging... if Cryptic and STO can do it then Bioware and SWTOR can too, this outdated obsolete naming system has got to go... i've always used Magenta here, i like how it looks on the black background...
  3. horrible job, should have never happened, i lost my 2 oldest character names in this, the characters i had the most attachment to... i knew this would happen and was against it always...
  4. Elly & Elhaym were my lightside mains... i never got them (or any other character for that matter) past the core game because i didn't like the changes such as taking my companions away and making my character mute, i still used them for crafting and just messing around and having fun with, so they got frequent use... maybe they took my mains names because i didn't like the game after Eternal Throne and Fallen Empire and refuse to play that part of the game... but those 2 are my oldest longest played characters... Narenya is one i made on the fly to test out builds and stuff... i knew a server merge would do this, that's why i was always against it, it's happened on every merge, i lose about half my character names... they need a better naming system because those people with 50, 70, 100+ characters have taken the complete naming pool... look at Cryptic they know how to let everyone have the name they want, never had a problem with names there, Bioware could learn a few things from looking at the competition...
  5. i lost 3... Elly, Elhaym, and Narenya... which sux, i had Elly and Elhaym since i started the game when it launched...
  6. the servers aren't dead, it's just the PvP & Raid cues that are dead... i log in and see people on every planet happily playing the actual game... it's all a skewed perspective, when people say the servers are dead what the really mean is nobody cares about their favorite side-content, players or devs... Raiding has killed itself with jerkwad elitists that complain that they can't get a group together because they keep dismissing and passing up on the "scrubs" that wanna join them, and PvP killed itself with a sub-population of sore winners and losers, that typically tell newbies they should just give up and have no business playing PvP... in kind it appears the devs have stopped caring about the toxic activities as well, since nobody except a handful play them, why bother making new ones if the elitists are just gonna run off anybody new... otherwise play the actual game and see how many people are on the planets playing the actual game as opposed to standing on fleet looking for a group and trash-talking any "scrubs" that wanna join... the only servers that are truly abandoned were originally PvP servers, that's telling in and of itself...
  7. TUX you know better than hyperbole like that, i'm sure you know full well that's not what i mean... i didn't think i could be much clearer that it's silly to come to a game and expect that one piece of side content to be the "be all end all" of the game... without the side content, people would be gone the moment the story/chapter/expac is over, that side content keeps them playing for a bit longer, but it is not and should not be the main focus of the game...
  8. as a matter of fact i am... it's just side/bonus content, diversions while one waits for the next expansion... it's not and never has been a main part of the game, otherwise it would have an actual impact on the story... if i wanted a PvP game i'd play something like CoD, a game that's like 10% story 90% PvP... but i don't because, that'd be silly of me to play a PvP based game when i want story and a rich world to play in... SWTOR is a story based game, it was never focused on PvP, nor was it meant to be... so it seems silly to me that "PvP only" people would come to a story focused game purely for PvP and nothing else, and demand that the focus be PvP... it makes about as much sense as a Wookie on Endor...
  9. yeah, i never understood those people that buy a game and/or subscribe to a game yet refuse to play the game and only focus on the side/bonus content... then they whine, complain, and raise hell that the side/bonus content is not the main focus of the game... really bizarre...
  10. i couldn't care either way right now... until we get confirmation on our companions coming back and my characters get their voices back i'm not playing any of these latests expansions that took those things away, if they can't get the original VA they can always get a sound-alike...
  11. that's funny how he says he loved X-Wing Vs Tie and Freelancer yet we have something like the bomber totally ruining the dogfight space combat feel the game had before the bombers showed up in game, since the bomber was introduced dogfights became almost non-existent...
  12. the game is not dead or dying, the servers are not dead and dying, PvP is dying, and that's what all these chicken littles are not wanting to face so they say game is dead or servers are dead... the reality of it is PvP is dying in RPGs that were not built around it in the first place... every RPG i play there's always a handful of the same people complaining about how much PvP is totally inactive... the poor sports of PvP have killed it to where nobody wants to play with them, besides RPGs are for story (and/or roleplay) anyway... PvP has naturally moved from RPGs to MOBAs and Shooters... if you're only looking at PvP sure almost every RPG will look dead to you, because lets face it PvP in RPGs is going the way of the dodo... i will not be leaving Jedi Covenant because i see people all over the place every time i log in, JC isn't even close to dead, but PvP, now that's taking it's last gasps in the RPG genre...
  13. switching, lol, why switch, play both... i never understood the "switching games" mentality... to me it makes about as much sense as those people that debate getting rid of their old Nintendo handheld when a new one comes out... just keep/play both, i didn't just throw my PS3 away when i got a PS4, nor did i trash my PS2 when PS3 came out, that's just silly... switching games, systems, ect. sounds like self-imposed limitation to me...
  14. until they do something about bombers, GSF will never be fun again, bombers completely ruined the dogfight feel it had before they were introduced... before bombers JC GSF was kickin' after bombers people slowly stopped playing, you can't dogfight against a bomber/gunship ball...
  15. well there ya go... Pot5 spent 3 years killing itself and now is living on life-support... you may wanna go somewhere more populated like Harbinger or Jedi Covenant...
