  1. Not so much during the class quests, but for everything else I do. I read the subtitles and space to the next.
  2. Why would anyone do that if they didn't have to? And playing video games is a hobby. And getting a life? *** does that even mean. Nonsense reply.
  3. Haven't you sort of answered your own question? You've done all the content. You don't plan to level through it again and assuming the rest of your guild feels the same I'd imagine the solution is obvious. Move on to another game? Your guild will probably clear the new content released in the patch tomorrow within a day, given that clearing content is your goal. Honestly you should just move on. Come back for expansions or after several months of new content have hit. I'm surprised you've geared up your entire guild already with raid loot. But like I said if you've done it all and have no desire to do it again then there's absolutely no reason to stay.
  4. Yeah it just doesn't work in PUG's. In a guild group where everyone knows that's what you do though I imagine it works fine. I think some people just have a hard time wrapping their minds around the reasoning of rolling need on flashpoint loot for a companion not being used in the flashpoints or future flashpoints those are really the only places where you really need said loot. Let's face it, a companion in all greens is good enough for the solo content in this game.
  5. Yeah, can't really tell people how to play though they should feel free to take advice. If you need on gear for your companion that another party member can use, don't expect them to invite you to a future group. People group and do flashpoints for loot. We like to say it's for the encounters, story, and etc but a vast majority are just there for the loot. People don't want to go in and have a one in four chance every time a piece of gear they can actually use drops. It's why group leaders tend to try and get one of each class, to insure everyone has a good chance to get a drop. But if you roll for each of your five companions, you're basically putting yourself ahead of everyone else. I won't tell you to not do that given that behavior is policed by the community. But generally if you want loot for your companion, ask first.
  6. Opinions don't have to be phrased as opinions. They are what they are regardless of phrasing. "I think" and "I feel' are actually kind of useless garbage in grammar and any English professor would give you marks for using them.
  7. Would be far more productive to get more specific and ask for help in your class forum.
  8. Yeah I'm not a fan either, which is odd because I love Nar Shaddaa which is basically the same but different color scheme and sky. What annoyed me most about Coruscant was the long run to the Senate Tower from the taxi. I'm much more fond of Dromund Kaas, probably my favorite planet in the game. But I'm weak vs stormy worlds. Another huge disadvantage for the Republic is Taris. Most annoying planet in the game to navigate. You come across it as an Imperial much later. Also as an Imperial it's night time, though only when you look up, on the ground it's day time. Always found that weird.
  9. Yeah, like others have said the voice acting and storylines are better on the Imperial side. Plus they have the gear that's the black with little red lights all over it and nerds love that stuff. I'm currently leveling a Sage and it's barren on the Republic side. During peak hours there are only about 90-110 players on the Republic Fleet, the market is severely lacking compared to that of the Imperials, and the population on the mid range planets are depressing. I thought it may be because of my server name, Shadow Hand. It's probably more alluring to people going Imperial. I personally chose it because it was the only east coast server at the time with a heavy population. I mean look at the smuggler, worst voice acting in the game. It's hit and miss, but I count far more misses. Trooper male, Sage male, completely lackluster. Sure Jedi may shun emotion to a degree but they're not drones. I actually like the Sage storyline, but it's a slow starter and it really doesn't grab you. The only advantage they have are some of starter locations they get on some of the worlds are far better in appearance and feel more "iconic"; Anchorhead for example. And before that guy comes around like in all the other threads and says "That's just your opinion", I'll say yes it's my opinion.
  10. Happened to me while I was on it alone last week. Can't remember if I had gone afk, I remember moving around a bit to make sure I didn't get logged out but was watching TV for most of the ride and looked back to find myself on the ground several minutes away from the datacron. The Balloon had reset to the start and I didn't make it back in time.
  11. It is true though, that despite any kind of improvement or even if the game launched flawless, we would still have the same whiny threads.
  12. Pretty sure EQ2 launched with a guild bank.
  13. That's what you fire back with? Can you even explain how I trolled you? I corrected you, there's a difference.
  14. I want say I speak for "us", but yeah the whole ratio of Imperial to Republic is crazy. I really wish I had rolled my Sage on a server that had a Republic sounding name. Guess not many Republic players rolled Shadow Hand because there's literally twice as many Imperials on the fleet than Republic during peak hours. But I should have expected that with a server name like Shadow Hand.
  15. Yes in preferences you can disable your legacy title.
  16. By definition, it's a subscription. It's fairer to say they've made no money from subs yet, as they're all currently free.
  17. Yes the first month was free, but you had to sub to access the game after the grace period. Input serial and credit card info. That's a sub.
  18. No it's the persistent world and in-game economy that make it an MMOG. It actually takes very little to qualify. It's no more a single player RPG than any other recent themepark MMO. So don't worry, no one is insulted.
  19. I've hit it twice, maybe it'll change on the third time?
  20. Fits the definition, just because you don't like it doesn't mean you can redefine it. Just say you don't like it.
  21. To be a fanboy of a gaming developer, one was probably a gamer. "brah".
  22. I'd say it's not good for role-players at all, given it defines the role and like you say provides you with very little of what role-players typically demand. But that asides, are role-players not gamers? I'm still waiting on that other guy to define "gamer" from before. He doesn't seem to be able to. Is this just another case of trying to apply social tiers to a group of people? Gamers play games, this is a game. People play it, they're gamers. It's no more complicated than that.
