  1. Yo, guys, you do know there's a new credit exploit in the game, right? Is this how you gonna fix the economy? Sad...
  2. Most classes can be played by using like 5 abilities in a rotation and people want to prune more. Annihilation ended with majority of the abilities used in the rotaion being the basic attack. Even more than carnage... like... spamming one button isn't really fun and with more pruning it will be more about pressing just the one button. What is wrong with your?
  3. It actually shows your economic knowledge is limited. To combat the inflation the first thing you need to have is the control over the money generations. So let's now think about that, right? Who's responsible for the credit influx? 1) BioWare with their improper testing creating credit exploits 2) Players 3) Credit sellers Who's gonna feel punished by any "credit sinks" the most 1) BioWare 2) Players 3) Credit sellers Now pick the correct answers. BioWare occassionally creates credit exploits and doesn't punish exploiters nor removes credits from the game afterwards. (at least to my knowledge) So they create plenty of credits, which are then sold by credit sellers to the players. And now BioWare is going to go on a roll saying - oh no, inflation happened, who knows how, let's combat this. LEZZ DO THIS!!!! Essentially they say - let's punish players for our mistakes and mishandling the situation. SHould have they combat the inflation earlier? Yes. Should they combat it now? I say no. Now to the elephant in the room. Creating positively viewed credit sinks will be hard. Creating credit sinks which won't punish F2P/Preferred players will be even harder. Creating credit sinks WHILE decreasing credit generations will punish currently poor players or the future new players. Limitting transfers between players will punish players. And now to the final point of the economics fun part. Imagine the inflation goes so high the money essentiallly lose any value at all. Then the barter starts to appear. Which is already happening. People are paying in the CM items. So while you will combat the credits and inflation, the reality is that the truly rich players have more than 100 billions credits simply in the CM items they received over the recent months. There's a reason why sell runs are being payed by the hypercrates. Long story short - until BioWare starts fighting the credit selling properly we will have the inflation because credit sellers are pumping back into the economy the credits. In other words, it would be like the inlfation in the Empire being caused by the Republic. Until the Empire gets their own money printing under control, they can't fight effectively the inflation. Which also means, that we need to be sure that when the next credit exploit happens, it will be handled properly instead of punishing everybody by "fighting the inflation".
  4. BTW who are the rich? Where's the line? 10b? 5b? 50b? Cause I got to 9b in 3 months just by playing nim operations and using all the tech fragments to sell OEMs/RPMs. Am I rich? Cause I Don't feel rich, I can't essentially buy more than 1 fancy item in the chat...
  5. Oy, download these 40 gigs and run it for free in your free time cause you're our paying customer!!! Am I doing it correctly? The incentive being, so it's not broken when it's released. There's... that thing. A payed job... what.... oh, yeah. TESTER. So, I get they cannot test every possible configuration, but we're not payed to do this and whining and moaning once it's released is fine, because 1) It is our FREE time 2) We're paying customers In other words - gib incentive. (and start listening to the feedback )
  6. Yes, depending on the bank your payment will be blocked as SWTOR.com doesn't use the latest security updates. e.g. Unicredit Serbia blocked all payments for a friend of mine with the reason, that these are unsecured and if he wishes, he can add swtor on the whitelist(which they didn't recommend). Edit> BTW this is much longer issue than since October, I've been unable to pay since February and the Unicredit incident happened in April IIRC
  7. Did you miss the 10-year celebration? How about that?
  8. True, didn't think about it properly and long enough. You're correct!
  9. Feedback on this site is from paying customers tho, so technically speaking you're wrong 😛
  10. Imagine implementing 0 balancing mechanisms because premades and then punishing those who quit You're pushing for the most diconnected from the playerbase award, right?
  11. In 2 weeks - oh noez, people just camp in the corner and do nothing, help, this pvp seems weird. Cause this will make people do exactly this.
  12. I agree, our money is less valid. Should probably move somewhere where they can appreciate customers more.
  13. Screw Europe and their prime raiding time, right?
  14. Sure, they can let their actions do the talking, but that's currently not good. To me it seems they don't care, but unless they fix the most annoying raiding bugs I think I don't care about the payment either, cause it's really hard for me to find money to pay for this game just because "it's Star Wars", when the amount of bugs is going up. Thank god we had the 10-year celebration
  15. Also there is the HM exploit of Lady Dom killing herself. I would expect BioWare address it considering one of the biggest raiding groups publically revealed how to do it and people were farming her for 5 days now. (probably before, but certainly not in these numbers) Yet we have 0 BW posts about an exploit in the current operation final boss.
