  1. Hey folks,

     

    It has been brought to our attention that when you gain a parcel from throwing a snowball in the Life Day event, you earn Command Experience Points. This is 100% intended as a nice little bonus of CXP for participating in the event. Between the cooldown on snowballs and the % chance to get parcels, this isn't better than simply participating in in-game activities such as Uprisings, Warzones, etc. We will continue to monitor this activity and if it creeps up to being better than endgame activities, we will likely lower the CXP that you earn from parcels.

     

    Now, there is some concern about players exploiting this using bots and whatnot so here is a reminder: botting and macroing of any kind is against the Terms of Service. If an account is found to be using either, appropriate action will be taken up to and including account closure.

     

    Happy Life Day to all! Get in there and throw some snowballs and get some CXP for yourself.

     

    -eric

    So any idea why we can't throw snowballs at any NPCs?

  2. Ok so I'm trying this on my damn sorceress and I can't help die like 50 times to attempt one lowsy gold star mob. What the hell is the point of making it THIS hard? I have tried every way I can, short of going full healing which I don't want to do because I hate healing, but this just does not happen without me dying. I'm stuck right now BECAUSE of this. I had my companion heal me, be tank, I heal him all results are the bloody same :mad:. Yeesh when one bloody npc can hit me for half my friggin health, and lets not forget I'm not lvl 10, im 65+ with at least 76k hp. I have NO idea how they expect us to do this as a sorceress -_-

     

    EDIT: My god I can't even kill 3 regular mobs??? What the hell is with this difficulty I'm really getting annoyed as ****.

    I have not started KotET yet, so I can only take a guess on what might be the problem.

     

    It could be that you're on the wrong setting, make sure you are on story mode, avoid veteran and master modes until you get better gear.

  3. Hi Plebs, im a subscriber, today when i logged my sentinel, i pushed the button for the new kotfe chapter, chapter 1 that is, then the game prompted me too subscribe , so i did, 1 month (30 days), i noticed that the price had gone up a notch too, 249 swedish crowns, 25 euros,

     

    logged back in, pushed the purple button for the new chapter, and it prompted me too subscribe once more, well, i didnt this time, i didnt want too loose any more moni ok?,

     

     

    so my question is, why would the game promt me too subscribe, when im already i subscriber, also, why would the game promt me too subcribe when early access was a well hidden little secret that u had too be a pleb at 25 october?, (only way too rush too 70 in 30 min flat and stand still at fleet like banta .)

     

     

    yes, thank you bioware, this bussiness of urs , are really smart, its a one way ticket too h3LL for the customers , id call it win win :D . :)

    Ok, so two things.

     

    1. As stated by Eric, that wording is an error, it should say "need early access". This was stated a couple hours after launch.

     

    2.The requirements were NOT a hidden little secret, they have been plastered all over everything related to the expac and was also mentioned in every livestream. You not knowing this is all on you.

     

    So basically there was no fraud done by BW, there was you just not reading the information that has been available.

  4. This is a neat idea, I guess, but set a cutoff time so those of us who don't want to participate don't get a ton of crap for getting our daily done.

     

    And I really would like to get the daily done once in a while, even though I don't plan to participate. All day is really far too long. When Strike Night was still a thing you just weren't able to play on TEH that night without catching a ton of aggression over it, no matter when you played.

    That is one of the problems with player made events like this, there's no separate instances so its all on the general maps. Not everyone wants to or can participate in the events but still want/need to fly.

     

    These events are good for the community but can have issues.

  5. I was out of the country a month and my sub had expired. I saw the expansion and bonuses and re-subbed just now at 11pm 27th. Is it to late to still get some bonuses? I really wanted shae visla and walker....
    You will get the walker mount but sorry you missed the Shae comp and wont get early access.
  6. Anyone know if there is a way to revert my game back to Chapter 9 if I'm just at the start of Chapter 10? I didn't realize that the [flirt] option that popped up when I was talking to Lana, Koth and Theron was towards Lana, at the time the camera was focused on Koth and when it said I need to speak to one of you, I assumed seeing the camera was on Koth at the time it was a flirt option towards him and was locked out the romance when I spoke with Lana 1 on 1. This is REALLY frustrating as there was no indicator of who it was towards.

    Actually the flirt option works the same way the non-flirt worked.

     

    Click the flirt choice, then you pick which of the 3 you want to talk to, then while talking to your chosen another flirt choice, which then asks if you want to start a romance.

     

    As to your question, nope no way to redo that part, sorry. But now you know for when/if you have an alt doing it.

  7. Are you taking the over or under that we get a class changes blog today, as discussed in the livestream last week?

    They said today or tomorrow, so no need to get the pitchforks out just yet.

     

    EDIT: Of course I didn't see Eric's thread until after I commented, making my comment unnecessary.

  8. I just want to clear up things.

     

    1. I pretty much figure it's a no, from the start.

     

    2. I wasn't being like all those people who are asking for exclusive items long after the fact. I for one believe an exclusive should stay that way.

     

    All that happened was, I was in charge of subbing the accounts of my household and I was doing the usual of maximizing the time by waiting until close to midnight. Unfortunately I got caught up doing a bunch of things and lost track of time, only to notice at 1 minute till. So I ended up getting them done just 5 minutes after midnight.

     

    Obviously it's my dumb mistake but I still had to ask the question, just to have it asked. Hopefully there is a natural grace period but if not I will have to live with it. Not looking forward to the fallout here, though.:(

  9. It's dumb because I already know the answer but I still need to ask it.

     

    I screwed up big time and missed the deadline by minutes, so could there be a slight extension on the 25th reward deadline?

     

    You know really the dates aren't even anyway, they should be the same, the 27th :D.

  10. can you still get these when you do the story for the first time?

     

    the republic/empire droid custom and the manaan one

     

    got rid of them on some of my characters and regret it >.<

     

     

     

    also hk47 skin please :D lol

    Yes.

     

     

     

    Really? I cant just answer with a simple "yes"? Need 5 characters, sigh.

  11. The Problem with GSF players is...we dont complain enough!!....pvp players complain about everything and with big numbers...so that automaticly get on top of the complain pile.....so come on pilots!! send more complains....and lets get some new gsf maps and options.....also we need like in wz...a sort of ranks...so newbees dont keep up fighting masterd pre made groups....do that and gsf wil become active with newbees again to
    Oh the GSF community did complain quite a bit in the beginning.

     

    As a result we got some minor good things but mostly a ton of crappy nerfs. The complaints were so massive that I believe they were a great part of why BW gave up on GSF.

     

    New maps would be great, some new ships too. But hopefully no more space maps (or any maps) with any type of clouding (dust, mist, whatever) like the shipyards, that stuff is a lag fest.

     

    Until the GSF player base gets bigger a ranking system cant happen. As things are now the queue would never pop. Plus for all the nightmare one sided matches, there are a lot of good mixes of matches, where newbies get a chance to feel things out & get in match advice.

     

     

     

    To the idea of legacy hangers, personally I have no interest in that. I view each character as their own entity and enjoy the whole process building them up, I also try to fit the ships to the character (even though no one can really see it). I have found it quite interesting to experience the varying advancements of each of my characters, surprisingly at times I have done better in new ships then in mastered ones.

  12. So I do not know if anyone else has noticed this, but I was re-watching Force Awakens Last night on DVD, and noticed something I hadn't before. During the scene where Han Solo, Chewie, Finn, and Rey are all walking into Maz's bar, and she senses Han's presence and yells out his name, all the patrons go quiet, and the camera pans around and you see a bunch of the aliens that are there. There is the quickest glimpse of very shadowed but very distinctive Scorpio among them. I went back and found the scene, and paused it there, it is definitely a female body droid, with her distinctive head shape, now there are some minor differences, but the droid even had her smug expression. Can anyone else find this and tell me I am not just wishfully dreaming??? It is very quick, and very shadowed, but I am pretty sure of what I saw!

    No, the status of SWTOR has not changed, it is not, nor has it ever been canon, neither was anything else that wasn't the 2 trilogies and the TCW cartoon prior to Disney's ownership, ever.

     

    As for that droid, you need to brush up on your SW knowledge. C3-PO was Lucas' homage to the original king of sci-fi movies, 1927's, Metropolis. In that movie the many character was a droid that Lucas based 3PO on, to which the designers of SWTOR based Scorpio's look on.

     

    The droid in Ep.7 is another of the thousands of J.J's fandom and homages to the history of SW.

  13. Ah such fawned memories of CWA.

     

    I do miss it even though I had left it years before they sunset it. Sadly I didn't know about the sunset until it was to late, if I had known earlier I would have gone screenshot crazy. Same thing with Free Realms, I had some cool stuff in both those games.

  14. I think you guys need to pair new fighter with new fighters not fighter with ship that are fully geared make no sense its like putting a lowbie pvp with a fight against a rnk geared pvp ..yeah i m doing somewhat of a useless damage but gettin nowhere ...example once your ship has minimal upgrades then it should put u with fighter that has decent gear on their ship .......guess it wont matter anyways cos gsf will die out control option are silly
    I am sorry that you did not have a good first experience but that is pretty much the norm for new pilots. GSF has a very big learning curve to it.

     

    Upgraded ships are only a small part of what made things bad for you, the main thing is player ability. An experienced pilot can be just about as devastating in a stock ship as a mastered one. There are pilots we all curse, those that it does not matter what you do they will make you feel like a first time pilot.

     

    The match maker can only match the people who are queued and sadly for many reasons the GSF community is on the small size, so you will get teams filled with a variety of pilots.

     

    I know you aren't happy with how things went for you but there's no need to be rude with that last sentence you wrote. GSF has been around for almost 3 years and is still going good even with the lack of BW attention and will continue on. Also, it is true that a lot of flight sim players have had issues with the controls but they are actually not to bad once you get use to them.

  15. This event is a double edged sword for GSF.

     

    On the good side it has brought people in, making things look like they did when went it first launched.

     

    Yet on the bad side matches have become a mess. A great deal of bad habits being taught or learned, going TDM when it's a DOM and when they do a DOM right it's all about 3 caps (defense is a 4 letter word to many), far more people doing the lagging and teleporting things. Oh and people aren't really talking anymore not even the big mouths.

  16. I find group oriented types so amusing.

     

    For the first time in gaming history the almighty groupers are not the center of attention and they act like Armageddon is happening.

     

    All that is happening is solo type players are finally getting some attention and as stated recently there is group content in the works. So quit your whining and just wait it out or don't and just move on.

     

    I got a good laugh at the part where the OP said that around 70% of the people are going to uninstall SWTOR and go to WOW. Yeah right, that will happen.

     

    Oh and the part where he thinks there's only 3 types of players (PVP, RP and endgame PVE), then implies that only RPers are interested in solo content, priceless.
