My male Bounty Hunter held off on the new story for fear of losing Mako. So I’m finally catching him up to my other alts

First I noticed that all the bridges in Makeb were "bright white" due to missing graphics textures (this was noted by several guildmates so it's not client based). https://imgur.com/MEWyqzP (You can see all the bridges look like white light now) Next I noticed that all the Eternal Fleet invasion pods in "Chapter 1: The Hunt" are also bright white and missing textures (you can even read notes on the textures saying what is supposed to be there). https://imgur.com/DHuwqmR (on the right side of the pic you can see the invasion pod is a burst of white) This seems to be growing and hasn't been caught in the last few patches. Will this be addressed soon? Are other areas missing textures now too?

I always thought Vaylin was one of the most "fleshed out" characters they created, and one of the best written villains. I would have loved a chance (or option) to save her from herself. Since she's gone, but helped you as a ghost in the final battle against her father, I'd love to see more interaction with her "force ghost" in a positive way. I kinda miss her

IMO Vaylin was a far more interesting character than Arcann ever was, and as others noted, her issues were all within due to her being "broken" (as her mother admitted). Given a choice, she'd be my pick for redemption. But as others have also pointed out....she's dead. You can't go back and change the ending, because then many players would want a "redo". Thexan was the cool brother, Vaylin had depth....Arcann is the "last cookie in the jar".

I was hoping to get back the blaster I once got from Balmorra/Taris - The M-500 Elite Stealth Enforcer. According to TOR fashion they are no longer available and I'd love them added back in as a cartel item (I'm sure there are lots of similar weapons and armors no longer available people would love to see return). https://torf.mmo-fashion.com/m-500-elite-stealth-enforcer/

I keep wanting to use this hair, and I keep changing it after I see the bug has not yet been addressed Every time I pick up loot, the hair bugs out showing that bald back of the head until I jump up and down to clear it, or start running forward. This is a hair style we paid for in the Cartel Market, how can this not be fixed yet?

Yeah, sucks, but it's common business practice to offer more appealing deals to get people back than are offered to those already there. Phone companies do it, Cable companies do it, Banks do it.... etc etc....

Now that they have instituted the Command Levels and CXP, increasing the regular levels no longer makes any sense. GW2 did the same thing with their hard 80 level cap and Mastery Levels after that. Once you progress to the new XP system, it would be a "step backwards" to ask players to then start to grind levels again before they return to CXP.

On my Jugg I dragged out both romances simultaneously as long as I could, but eventually I hit a point where Vette wanted a choice made. DSJaesa was open to sharing, Vette replied with "Ewwww". ~lol~

Works for me too.

I'm on Star Forge and finally returning to Makeb with a new character and all the light bridges on all the mesas are bugged. Instead of showing the correct texture of crisscrossing lights, it's blindingly white....this is especially bad when there are enemies to fight on the bridge. My fiancee' checked on her computer and she's seeing the same bug (and I checked it on another pc as well), so I know it's not computer related. I know Makeb isn't the "hub" it once was, but can you please fix the lightbridge textures so we can enjoy playing there again? Thanks.

I was very happy to read that dev update too

Good attitude Time to put down the forum and get pack to playing

If you ask Darth Hexid about Jaesa, she’ll give you rumors of what she’s heard.

In the wake of all the other posts, it’s nice to see this one here. I truly hope the rumors are not true, but I’ve been a fan and loyal sub since the game opened, and I hope I get to continue playing this game for some time to come. Heck, I even met my fiancee’ through this game Yes, there are other games I enjoy, but this is my number one sci fi mmorpg

I'm on Alderaan and can't get to any Stronghold either (they're just not there, as if I don't have any, including the guild stronghold).... Tried to ask in General chat on Alderaan if others were having the same issue, but Gen chat is down too. I'm glad it's a Star Forge issue and not just mine.

Glad to see more companions are coming back, though I hope they'll get more "story" to them than Malavai and Elara got. Hoping this means other "love interests" are not far behind.... such as: Mako, Vector, Kira, Jaesa, Ashara, Akaavi, Nadia, Felix and Doc

I'm with the OP in wondering about the return of such companions. I hope they bring them all back eventually....and in a manner that gives them some backstory (like with got with Vette, Kaliyo, Aric, Torian, etc.)

I agree they weren't as good as the ones that got chapters, but it beat not getting them back at all, like so many of the others.

The quests are still there, they are just "hidden" for those players that just want to do the main story and planetary quest lines. Go to your map, and in the lower left corner there is a check box for "Show Exploration Quests", that will make all the old quests show up again. Also, some quest givers have moved (like the "Revanite" quest line on DK, who moved from the center of the city to the Wall).

I agree. Key "missing romance" characters like Jaesa, Kira, Mako, Vector, Ashara, Doc, Andronikos, Felix and Nadia (and anyone I forgot) deserve real intros like Vette, Aric, Kaliyo, Torian and now Malavai, Elara and Raina got.

Reminds me a bit of how GW2 works where the attack stats are based on the weapon you use, but each weapon just has five attacks making it simpler to set up the rotation you like.

This post has made me feel much better about the 22 alts I have....I thought I was going overboard, but after reading the comments here....

Sadly it happens, even to games loved by the players like this is. I remember when City of Heroes/City of Villains shut down like that, I had a lot of characters there too

Well, if you want to just extricate yourself from the problem.......
