Ever since the cartel store subs have had less value to EA. Sad to say I am not surprised by what they did I am just done with it. I really hope things change for the better for this game someday. I will now go f2p just like everyone else before me. I just feeling rather stupid I did not switch at day 1 now.

Hi, the expansion has been out for a long time now but for some reason I can not do a flashpoint without someone showing up in lvl 50 gear. I play as a assassin tank I have lvl 55 gear not perfect but it is correct for the flashpoints I am tanking. I do not understand why people think it is ok to show up to heal or dps in camp gear or less. If I showed up to tank these in that gear they would vote kick me. Before the expansion I was at 26k health now with lvl 55 gear I sit at 39k. It really does make a huge diff what gear you have for pug or group finder flashpoints. If you feel the need to be undergeared please run these with only your guilds and leave these spots open for people who made the effort to meet what the group finder says is needed. I do not feel this is asking to much. when the healer or dps is undergeared everyone else suffers and must carry you.

opps my bad bald

True bloods do hold the most power they could get our hair rights passed if they did not prefer to be balled

I would like to post a petion on behalf of the galaxies non human population that hair styles and colors are not the sole domain of the human race, the bigotry has even gone so far as to encompass augmented humans (cyborgs) in this hair style and color monopoly. we the non human races, Chiss, cyborg, Mirialan, Miraluka, and Sith Pureblood we have the right to dye and style our hair as we see fit! Humans should not have copyrights on the way we choice to express our individuality! Please help us motivate the galactic senate and the emperor himself to allow us to have this change come to life. (the financial benefit would be great for those in power) I thank you for your time and look forward to this change.

The lag seem to clear up around 2 am, i am sure it will pick back up again come noon if not sooner.

what i do not understand is it not fleet or makeb it is your ship and every single planet plus pvp is 100% down

i just tried to change toons and it is stuck on that splash screen. This is Great. if we can not play on double xp weekends they should just make it all week. Or PLEASE fix our server.

The server lag is beyond anything i have seen before this weekend. Mail does not work or gives error messages for 5-30 mins after you try to use it. pvp que up takes you to log in screens. It even laggs on your ships. Frozen load screens going to any planet and area sometimes booting back to char select screens. Please do something about this its been two days so far. I do not know if other servers are having this issue that is why i am posting this. We had some lag last double xp weekend but nothing like what is going on now.

opps my bad will repost in gen

I read this forum while at work on lunch and such and for the last few months I have noticed a trend of a few players who seem to post on every thread as if it is their job. Some are the trolls, some are the defenders some just seem to like to post hate a lot. And now it seems we have some that are pulling random threads out from months prior just to bump current ones off the main page. I propose a forum post per day limit for all but customer service threads. For any other section I can not see why any one person would need to post more then 10 times in one day. If you look at the threads you can see the same few people on near every thread some post dozens of times per thread. I think something this simple would cut down on the flame wars and fighting rampant on our current threads. I do love this game it is far from perfect this I do know but I feel this would be a overall good thing for the community as a whole.

Huge fail 2.0 has changed the game to one that favors the hardcore gamers , fanbois, and full time game players, i do not have 40 hours a week to put into this game. Daily missions take far too long and pay no better then lvl 50 dallies, flashpoints are too long and pay out little plus the increased repair cost have made most stop doing them. 2 hour que times on a full server on a weekend prove this fact. Crafting cost more credits, takes more time for crew missions yet they give less mats,unless you raid you cant make things worth selling.

I am a tank and since 2.0 i stopped queing up for hm flashpoints, it is clear i am not the only one from the wait times. The reasons i listed in my post a while back but it comes down to the time to do them is not worth the payout. Mobs with huge health pools and bosses that do not drop anything of value are the main reason. It is simply not worth the time spent to hope for a one in 4 chance at 1 purple for a entire flashpoint. And then hoping that someone who can not use the gear does not ninja need it on you after the last boss drops it. This happend to me the last time i ran a hm so im done until things get fixed. This game Needs to add the need by class only like so many other games have already done.

thank you king troll

wow so many troll responses, so lets sum up the troll responses, its too easy for me, everyone but me sucks, every boss drops awsome gear, and repair costs are not what i have said they are. Well i am not a hardcore super no life mmo troll. so if you dont think things are too hard and the payouts are awsome great for you. Now for the normal player that has a life. repair costs are high, the bosses dropping blue level 53 items are not at all acceptable. The fact that you get 1 purple drop and it is NOT a token makes these feel like a waste of effort and time. People are doing these in black hole gear because like so many special people here belive they are too good for any difficulty level so they could never be the problem. yet tanks are paying the price in repairs due to over agro poor healing and undergeared players. i do not blame the undergeared players because that is why you do flashpoints is to get better gear. I love the its a hardmode statements maybe you have not noticed THEY DID NOT ADD A SINGLE NON HARDMODE LEVEL 55 FLASHPOINT. Overall many here are missing the point IT IS NOT FUN to spend hours on flashpoints and come out of this with a loss. yes you get 2 whole tokens per boss, but the gear cost 80-140 per item. For those who have math issues that means i have to run these many many many times for gear. But if it is not FUN then what is the motivation to do it? BTW thank you to all the possitive feedback, At least most agree drops should be better and tokens and repair costs are high.

oh well guess the fact that the drops are worthless and its not fun got lost someplace in here amoung the you suck, i want it to be impossible cause thats how i like it posts. Maybe if they would have given us some req 55 flashpoints this would not be such a problem as well but they did not you got extreme hard mode and nothing else.

i see that the changes in healing needs seem to be the cause for these wipes, somewhat. i have also been in groups that still have black hole gear on i dont mean some parts i mean full black hole. As a tank its beyond frustrating and spending 2 hours and hundreds of thousands of credits on repairs for a single flashpoint that does not give you squat but a few tokens per run and i need 100s for each part. so that means i have to do this flashpoints hundreds of times to gear up. In no way is that worth the effort. btw what is the solution for the dam wookie adds ?

Yea that hammer station robot cost us 3 healers last try they just gave up, after 8 total wipes and 150k in repair costs we all gave up. My overall point is they are not fun at the current level settings, and the rewards are horrible. I though you did hardmodes to get gear for raids but maybe things have changed and you just go right into raids instead. i am the last one of my friends still playing swtor. everyone else i know quit due to lack of fun. this 2.0 update with caps on everything and nightmare mode hardmodes will not bring any of them back.

I am in as full gear as possible do to com caps, 66 mods , i am a tank btw, and i guess the people saying it is too easy are doing these in guild runs, with everyone in good gear, and using vent or something like it. But on a normal random que that is NOT the case. some are geared good some still in black hole. i can not change others gear.(wish i could) I just do not see the cost of time,credits and lack of fun to be worth the credits,drops, stress and time. i Hope they fixed some of these issues. I see no reason why any boss should drop BLUE LEVEL 53 items what is the point of that? I can get those from any reg mob in makeb for the love of ..

So its been a week of doing these new hardmodes and without question they need to be fixed. The cost of repairs, time, and effort level vs the payout is beyond off scale. These are the current problems as i have seen so far. feel free to add what i may have missed. 1. Bosses drops BLUE gear really? And dont hold your breath but a whooping 2 elite tokens . what is the point. If i can craft the level of gear given is too low. 2. Boss difficulty levels are set too high, perhaps they were set for pts when we all had full gear but no one does now, for example the wookie in cademimu spawns so many death trolls so fast it is near impossible to beat. the heat beam in hammer station cause so many wipes everyone quit. Both times i got que no we did not make it past the first boss. 3. Repair cost are tooo high to make the 10k payout at the end worth anything. The last run caused 5 wipes at a cost of 23k per wipe. so to do this flashpoint and get 0 gear from it i spent over 100k in repairs. 4. The overall payout for the vs the cost of gear per tokens if the gear goes from 80-140 tokens per item the payout is just not worth the repair bills or time. i love flashpoints but if they cause more stress then fun i do not see any reason to do them at all. Doing a raid has a far better payout with less cost in repairs.

Why are we all being treated as if we are all free 2 play? So you get basic coms for daily missions, flashpoints and story missions. yet by the time if finished level 55 i was at near at cap, i capped on the next day. Now i am not playing, because i can not progress at all. I play as a tank so it is beyond important for me to gear to a basic level as soon as possible. These com caps are not doing anything positve for my gameplay. Without these caps i would bust rump to get to basic gear levels and then run flashpoints non stop. But instead another tank is throwing in the towel. These limits should be renamed weekend com caps because thats all the gameplay you can have anymore. Just to be clear i dont belive in caps or limits for flashpoints, pvp, and or raids. If people are willing to pay then let them play as they see fit. If a ops group can do the operation from start to finish in a day then let them do it again the next day. If johnny pvp can play till his finger prints wear off on the keyboard let him/her. By putting caps on our gameplay you are doing the reverse of what you hope for, this does not make us play longer it makes us find another way to spend our free time and money.

Ok so i do not do much pvp anymore but when i read the new happy fun time dance off pvp for 2.1 umm i really hope this was a april fools joke. If not i guess i can learn to fight like a japanese high school girl finaly.

I support a double valor and comms weekend seems like a fair thing to me, and i dont even pvp
