  1. Quoted for truth, as your sarcasm is totally lost on the devs and pretty much the majority in this thread and probably the game. This is exactly what everybody wants.
  2. Again, no cash rewards for gray quests, you fall out of Flashpoints of a specific range in the groupfinder. You can basically forget about doing anything else but PvE class quests unless you´re happy with doing content without any useful cash reward whatsoever. For a first time player the white acute is a godsend and I´m lucky I even heard it mentioned in general chat before I got too far with my main.
  3. Legacy armor hasn´t even occurred to me, thanks! Will it stay legacy so that i can swap it even when I dye it with such a bound dye?
  4. Oh jeez, my english cannot be that bad.. here: When the new crafting system abolishes the slot system altogether, will we´ll get a refund? Better?
  5. Well, I´ve heard pretty much the opposite and that was "from the horses mouth" in a recent cantina recording. Though it also was so ridiculously ambiguous that I may have completely misunderstood as you frikken englishmen so much like to structure your sentence backwards. P.S. main question is in the thread title, refund issue is mainly speculation but also important.
  6. So my Powertech got lucky and now I have this sitting in my cargo. What would be the best looking Armor to put this on? I almost slapped it on the heavy lvl7 one in imperial fleet, but restrained myself in time. Though making that white partly cloth armor into a ninja look really seemed tempting. Couldn´t help myself wondering if there are high level (if possible none pay) armors, that would look even more bad-***. Please help me with your suggestions.
  7. Actually I don´t believe that, it´s the developers listening to Harvard marketing morons that are dumbing everything down as quickly as possible. Much love for the white acute, one also looses quite a bit of money when quests turn gray. Haven´t figured out yet if green quests also loose a chunk of reward cash.
  8. Don´t have it either, probably because I used a GTC and not a credit/debit card.
  9. I haven´t seen this question yet, as naturally it´s kinda irrelevant for subs, the only ones allowed here. But as it actually cost MONEY it is the MOST important question for me and I´m sure many other (non-subs). Also I´m not so sure we´ll get a refund, when the new crafting system may or may not abolish the slot system altogether. So it really is important for somebody competent to answer very soon, if it actually makes sense buying this unlock with cold hard cash.
  10. That´s what health packs are for. And it has everything to do with immersion. If the companions are such ÜBER guys that they can do everything whenever they choose, then who the frick is the hero here? Companions are supposed to be a HELP, not make you a complete party that allows facerolling an on-level flashpoint or heroic area by yourself. So far all companions I encountered had also a DPS option next to their "assigned" role. That should be well enough flexibility and if they were bad at it then that is a balancing issue. This is still supposed to be an MMO, remember? If your chosen class and companion role stymied your gameplay so badly then one is supposed to go make some friends to help out.
  11. Hmm, actually you´re quite wrong there. GW2 is also very much a story driven game. Personal AND global story, which they tried to tell in this episodic "living story" mode. The problem was simply that the content was bad, as it rehashed the same game design concepts over and over and even deleted content every 2 weeks when the next "episode" was launched. This is the trap I very much hope SWToR will avoid. Thanks though on alleviating my worries about the new attribute system, we´ll see how it pans out.
  12. Huh? The devs explain it themselves. And you´re talking about it yourself, right in the next sentence.. It´s BAD new game mechanics. The companions right now have enough role choices and most content I encountered so far is a face roll anyway. If I´m not mistaken, people all run around with the Evok (and HK ) because they are so OP allowing you to solo pretty much anything. That´s a balancing issue and doesn´t warrant an immersion breaking total abolishing of companion class roles.
  13. I´m new to SW TOR and still comfortably in the "rose-tinted glasses" phase, but this reveal left a bad aftertaste. First, the cinematics and storytelling are great, it was all news to me as I got better things to do than scour all spoiler and data mine threads 24/7. The bad part was the "streamlining" (aka. dumbing down) of companion roles. Everybody can be everything even when it breaks your very own class system? That´s just bad game design AND storytelling. If you want to create a frikken console star wars game, then do this somewhere else in a better game engine. But don´t kill of the most important part of an MMO, namely the class system. Having your companions ignore it is the first step. Though from what I heard so far about the streamlining of the attribute system (by abolishing it), you´re well on your 2nd and 3rd steps already? Still hoping everything will be good though. But the constant marketing speak doesn´t bode well. ALSO this whole chapter concept reminds me SO MUCH of Guild Wars 2´s catastrophic living story. They wasted almost 2 years on this crap and thus delayed a proper fleshed out expansion well into their 3rd. Please learn from other people´s failures and don´t repeat them!
  14. Ok here are my 3 codes from all cantinas so far. PAX Prime Cantina 08.29.2015 http://www.swtor.com/user/ce/uwkp2 Gamescom Cantina 08.07.2015 http://www.swtor.com/user/ce/uwkp1 San Diego Comic-con Cantina 07.11.2015 http://www.swtor.com/user/ce/uwkp0 Still in the 60days window, so they should work.
  15. I know it´s another one of those dreaded "worth it" threads, but please bear with me.. I´d like to have the inside scoop on the actual worth of all these boosts. As a month old noob with only a lvl28 char and 5 other alts around 15, I´m obviously not that big a fan of quick leveling. That 12x boost for subs is already freaking me out! So, bottom line, is it wise for me to get this now for sale on the GTN or actually using it for quickly boosting an alt on a different server instead? Or simply ignore it and buy more character slots instead (or wait for that sale to come back). All answers appreciated, thanks in advance! Oh right, the free stuff .. The internet, not everything believe you read ..
