  1. Hello. Quick question. I re-subbed and looks like I should get the new content (and expansions?) with a sub so I am asking do I need to download something or will it just unlock once my launcher updates the game since it has been awhile for me? Thanks!
  2. Ahhh so you mean why didn't they keep it pay to play and not go f2p? The core game as a sub is exactly what it is always been. All of those you just mentioned come with a sub. If you are thinking of going preferred status and have to purchase those unlocks, well that is tough. You are playing the game for free. So now to answer the question again now that I understand a little better at what you are getting at, I still don't feel like I got screwed over at all. I continue to pay $15 and I continue to get everything I did then.
  3. Nope. I pre-ordered the CE and never regretted once. I didn't buy it for the in-game fluff and vendor. I purchased it for all the other things that came with it. It was a one time purchase. Why should I feel entitled to more stuff now when I bought it 2 years ago? To add, and not trying to be rude so hopefully it won't come off that way, but I have no idea what you are really trying to say. Your paragraphs were hard for me to understand the way you worded things along with grammar issues which I was trying to figure out. So I replied off what I thought you were trying to get at. Again, English may not be your first language and everyone has typos or grammar issues, but I just had a hard time trying to get what you wanted to say.
  4. Please don't speak for me. They already have my respect because I love the game and I respect the job they have done so far. If they don't make anymore classes I would still love the game and be fine with that. I love all these armchair developers who think they know what's best for everyone and what everyone wants and what everyone should have. I especially love how this poster says they don't have "our" respect (since they are posting for all of us I guess) unless they create 4 new classes. LMAO
  5. I agree some, but I guess I am one of the only ones but I never really felt any laginess on any of the planets you mentioned along with load times which I never really noticed or took long enough to notice. That's why I would like to see more in depth planets again. Those felt more like a planet to me then Makeb did. But I am fine with any route they go.
  6. I don't think they will release a full blown expansion imo. It will likely be how RotHC was as I am sure it showed success. I would like to see a more in depth planet though in the next one like how one of the original planets were with a couple operations, new flashpoints and wz. Heck, maybe they are working on a full blown expansion too which would have a couple planets and a 10 lvl increase. Who knows though. I wouldn't hold my breath on a big expansion though. Not that it is a bad thing but just saying.
  7. Not really. Maybe take a business class son so you can understand things better.
  8. You should actually do some research first instead of posting through the SWG rose tinted goggles. First of all, SWG at its peak couldn't pass 300k subs and there wasn't even WoW out then. Didn't have tons of competition except mostly from UO, EQ and a couple others. Secondly, SWG was a sandbox box. It has nothing to do with BioWare and their version of SW. Completely different games other then both had lightsabers. Why not compare WoW to CoD? SOE did NOT make a mistake in pulling the plug on SWG. It did it for a reason. Maybe the 10-20k people left, if that and didn't feel the upkeep was worth it due to not making money. That was a smart business move. People seem to think that SWG was the almighty and had a strong player base when in fact it didn't. The majority of the people prefer theme parks vs sandbox games. If you don't believe me then how many active ones are there along with the active accounts? ToR at it's lowest still was way above SWG at its highest. Let's see how The Repopulation does as it is a full sandbox game along with EQ Next which may do okay because of its fan base but I bet Eq1 and EQ2 would still do better then EQ Next. The majority of the people want to see rewards for their efforts and completely hard end game bosses for gear is one way vs getting excited over farming gas with your harvester cluttering up the area and crafting a gun. Don't get me wrong I loved SWG because it was SW but mostly because it was my first mmo (other then UO which I only played for like a couple weeks because I didn't like it). But what made me love it so much was the community. Without them I may not have stayed as long as I did. I look back now and all I did in SWG was defending our guilds or allies bases during vulnerability, sit in a cantina and socialize, or go out and level new skills since you could change your skills in a matter of a couple days.
  9. So if let's say England, had a big name mmo. Do you really think they would cater to everyone else's time or be on their own time? I would say the latter. Also I would bet money that the majority of the active accounts are from players in North America vs Europe or Australia.
  10. I hear ya on that. I just wrote a letter to Topps and cc'ed the BBB, Michelle Obama, and the parking attendant at Knott's Berry Farm because I purchased 40 packs of baseball cards and didn't get the one I wanted along with a few packs had broken gum sticks. Such BS!!!!!!!
  11. Heh, it doesn't matter if they are stickyed or not. People seem to not see any thread right in front of them or there wouldn't be so many identical topics a lot of times. (Not just ToR but all other mmo forums this happens too)
  12. Nope, I'm not. They described exactly what a sandbox is. Good try though.
  13. You are talking about a sandbox version of SW which I know you are hinting at SWG. Already been done and bombed. They couldn't even get 300k active subs and this was before WoW and all the other mmo's after. No thanks to another sandbox SW. For me anyways.
  14. What is funny is even pvp based mmo's (claim to be) their pvp is even worse. Warhammer, Aion and GW2 were all supposed to be pvp focused and they all were horrible. Heck, GW2 is more about pve now then pvp. You would think the title alone Guild Wars would actually have some great pvp going on. So yeah, I have yet to see any hard core pvpers really happy with pvp in any mmo.
  15. RP is up to the people not the game. In all honesty, I didn't see much of the RP in SWG. On our server, everyone just was themselves and chillin with everyone having fun. Sure some rp'ed and there were wedding events etc., but as far as rp their character, I have seen more here and in WoW then on SWG.
  16. I see you completely ignored the actual press from the actual company (EA/Bioware) stating that they are making more money and it is up overall and growing. But yeah the game is really dying because of what you think not actual facts presented by the actual company who sees the actual numbers. Seems more like your delusion is strong.
  17. Player housing in general, if done to work with the game, I don't mind. But there are some here wanting player housing like SWG which is just ridiculous. If it was an instanced type thing where it wouldn't destroy the ambiance of the planets then fine. I haven't checked out Rift's player housing but I heard it wasn't too bad. At least I think it was Rift.
  18. It amazes me people still have no clue what the difference between a sandbox mmo and a theme park mmo. Especially those posts I just read where they think that SWG type player housing would be good in this game. NO it wouldn't. It would actually ruin the game. I don't want the nice scenery cluttered with a bunch of ugly houses with no where to move. A Sandbox mmo is basically a wide open terrain where the community creates the content and is the type of game where you do build houses, guild halls, towns, etc. Check out The Repopulation if you need this type of stuff. That is a going to be a sandbox mmo along with Everquest Next I believe. Also, please stop comparing SWG to ToR. Who cares if SWG had certain things you wanted. They have no place in here in ToR. Hey let's compare Zelda to Call of Duty. Basically the same thing as comparing swg to tor.
  19. Definitely. I think others who might be on the fence of pvp or not really do it much because they don't have the option of choosing which one they want to do. I think it will bring more to queue and play some warzones or arenas.
  20. I love when people say things like this. You should actually read all the replies as well, being I was also referring to one of the OP replies. Reading comprehension is an underrated skill.
  21. I seriously don't know why they never made pvp warzones/arenas to let you choose what you want to do and maybe offer intensives to queue for a random. I hate to bring it up but imo WoW does a great job of this. You can pick any bg you want to do or if you do it randomly you gain more honor and badges. They also offer a weekly BG that does this too which can help get people to join. If one warzone gets queued so much and others don't well, that is when you offer bonus things then to do the less played ones. There could be some good warzone/arena matches that could take place, but people leave because they get tired of being in the same one they don't want. We can queue for any flashpoints or operations we want. Not that hard to have done it for the pvp side also. I am not even a pvp player for the most part, but I do enjoy some warzones at times to mix it up a little.
  22. I can't wait for Double XP weekend. I haven't had time to level my other alts to 55 so hopefully I can get a couple more of them to it. I think this is a great feature they add here and there. Sorry you don't like it and need to level without it for awhile extended weekend. Each person is open to their own opinion, but I will bet you are in the very minority on this. Calling others selfish for this pretty hypocritical being you are selfish in wanting no one to get something a lot of people want and enjoy.
  23. You really don't fully read posts nor comprehend them do you? I have seen a few of your replies back to people who said similar things and you got all defensive and telling them things like you just replied back to me. LMAO at you saying I sound like a vindictive teenager based off my reply. Funny stuff. Oh, on a side note, you don't just want to have the event back. You said yourself you HAVE to have new items or you will quit. So obviously you want more then just the event. According to you that is.
  24. Same posts. Same replies for the most part. Someone is bored and doesn't like 1 small thing from the game out of the many things the game offers and gets frustrated because they can't get what they want asap. So they quit and feel the need to create a thread, which yes they have every right to, but one that has no criticism in it, no ideas on what Bioware can do to maybe improve something, just complaining and then gets mad when people don't type anything positive back to them nor agrees with them. Then those who also dislike the game will start ripping on those who post against the OP and feel the need to call them White Knights etc. It is like watching Two Broke Girls where it is the same thing over and over again and even though it is a new episode, you know how it will go. Non stop 1 liner snappy comment sex jokes from everyone and cupcakes. Personally, I just wish people would just quit instead of needing to leave a crying thread with no criticism or ideas to improve something so everyone can discuss it. Most of these people don't even quit anyways.
