so you thought the items wouldn't be recycled for the next year? ha

I was just back for 60 days with a gametime card, taking a longer break again when my gametime runs out on December 20. Got the Makeb expansion free, 1500 cartel coins free with the promotion, some goodies free. Played through Makeb on two alts and played Oricon and CZ198. Good content, was fun. Will be back for SWTOR 3.0 if it is cool. I like logging back in and see lots of content added in between, also if there is some promotion to resubscribe.

Really? I sometimes read there but don´´t have an account. It is indeed a cesspool of ex subscribers and some F2P players, but all in all the SWTOR forum on mmorpg.com is pretty much dead. I´ve seen the same threads listed there on the SWTOR main page for months. Many weeks ago there was a QA for Bioware but still no answers on the question thread. At least last time I checked.

I didn´t say Story = lame, I said massive Story overkill =wrong for MMO focus Also why are you playing an MMO for story? You could play offline Bioware titles which have more story focus and executed even better (Mass Effect, hello?) Not really a ton, but basically this is correct. And this is why this MMO needs lots of different gameplay activities rather than the old off-the-shelf standard stuff. Example: GSF See, they know it too. Game needs more variety in content. they did NOT cut off story, every daily area has story Makeb had story everything else will have some story just not the original 8 x overkill individual class story, voiced M+F in three languages Already an old hat. Secret World has voiced story, every new MMO has story and voiceovers. Even Age of Conan had voiceovers back in 2008, just not for EVERY quest. They are still adding voiceovers today.

My guess: BW looks at metrics BW sees x% finished 8 class stories BW announces "no more individual class stories" btw I have only finished one. Have some alts in the 30ies-40ies

you answered your own question here besides, why another thread? mods, merge please

I think it is hilarious that people do no realize that class stories actually ruined the game, mega budget, and people went through the content like locusts and left 3 months after launch because there were not enough gameplay features. f2p, server merges, two layoff rounds. Now they add gameplay features and are slowly recovering and what do some subscribers ask for, more class story? /facepalm No, ending class stories won´t ruin swtor - continuing to work on MMO gameplay features will rather save swtor. Because this is not KOTOR offline

my guess is 250K subs and 500K F2P

usually until the next patch ,you can post even if you don´t have gametime on your account

well this is what I always do, play a month or two on a gamecard, take half a year+ break, then come back with some promotion and play the new stuff added, then regret the amount of time I spent in front of the PC It is.. the circle.. of life

AWESOME new idea: Leave F2P with 25 quests limitation and give subscribers a whopping 1000 quest log limit! yeee haw and 2000 cartel coins to buy an unlock from the Cartel Market PROFIT!

Don´t know about your status in 21 days, but my status in 21 days will be "Massive hangover from New Year´s Eve"

But that would just be a waste of time, why take forever if you can have the path of least resistance and summon a companion? There would be solo zones required which are balanced for actual "heroic" solo play where companions are simply not allowed

you know what would be something new? Solo Zones. Real solo zones where you can fight alone, I´m getting a bit sick of the companion concept, would be great if you had to do some quests alone, where you can´t summon companions.

This is why I personally think putting a whole planet in its own level bracket was a rather unfortunate decision, e.g. why should Korriban or Hutta not have open world areas with lvl 55 content? (Not just like Section X separate daily areas, but more like open world areas by extending the actual planet map)

Please make the character position marker on the map a different color than yellow It is hard to see with all icons in yellow Also make option that radar minimap rotates and orientates towards North

Suggestion video in signature Also add actual speeder mechanics and different characteristics Drift, Traction, Gears, Speed Boosts Disable jumping Disable sideways going -> in short revamp speeders and make them more realistic and "Star Wars" like

Leave here A) or B) maybe with short explanation for a future update would you prefer A) Adding new planets, same fashion like the old ones (e.g. like Makeb was added) Keeping new features to new planets B) Improving and extending old planets (e.g. making the old planet maps bigger, adding features to the planets like day/night, open world racing tracks, making environments more varied and alive, adding new high level zones for all existing planets) A) or B) ?

yeah speeders need total revamp. Start from scratch - keep the models but make it more than just a skin for a walking speed buff. Every time I see someone going sideways and jumping I silently /facepalm Speeders need acceleration, brakes , gears, drifting, traction and different specs. Total revamp. And how many more speeder skins do they think they can sell on the cartel market?

The spaceships need chatbubbles. Also: emotes. Need a /spit emote for gunships And I want to /sit on asteroids

I agree with everything especially 4) watch my video on mounts

this again? class stories are costly and over

why would anyone pay money to troll forums? If they want they can troll and bash any MMO for free on mmorpg.com

with the mile wide streets in this game and zero traffic, don't see a lot to crash into, Suoer Mario Kart had more obstacles

would also like to know the exact date, I'll send someone back to "fix the timeline"
