Yes you did it again and again and again....
As a casual player with mostly 1 or 2 hours a week, i have some 19+ lvl 65's that i really enjoyed playing over the years , also enjoyed ops and group content and knowing that i'll be able to get some loot for my "work", and what do i get now? the ethernal grind for what? for a chance? you can see for yourself on this forum or on reddit that ppl are not happy with you right now and do you know why? go figure and read some posts here or there. and btw i enjoyed the kotet story really nice work there.
ps i will not go for a year (or more) grind for cxp so i'll just say that i really loved your game and for now it's time to say goodbye ! thanks for the years of joy here with all of you , devs and playerbase
untill we meet again...

Now with the new xpac comming soon it would be a good time to rewamp the social level(rank) perhaps?
While playing my last toon (nr 16 on JC) i've found some nice looking gear on the social vendor on Quesh but my social rank is only 3 and even if on many other toons i'm at 10 i can't buy it for this particular one. Some legacy perk or cartel unlock would be nice. I know there were many requests over the years but i never saw a reaction from BW.
anyway , it would be nice to have it
-
This won't, or shouldn't happen. This would be pay to win, as far as I'm concerned, and it would ruin the game.
Hey there,
I have to disagree with pay to win.You would not get anything that would not be obtainable in game, you would not have any advantages that other players would not have also, it would mean that one could spare some time , grinding time is not the best playing time .
Ultimate coms, yeah ... i wish. but i buy a pack or two fo me or a pet or all of them
Just my 2 cents
-
I would pay 200 for a lifetime sub but only if i'd have the option to buy the game (server) when they will close the servers, for a reasonable price. i just want this game
-
The constant gear grinding, repeating the same stuff week after week.
Yes i know how it is like.I've just hit 50 with my merc and the grinding is now starting, you know... clasic basic etc... it's just boring when i had to do it with my sage(55) and my sniper(55), i remember that by the time i've finished makeb i had all basic gear and was happy to begin doing oricon story..nice story but why do i have to do a lvl 55 are just to get lvl 53 rated gear? no ofense i enjoyed the story but hey the rewarded gear is just for gtn or alts or whatever.
Imho the devs should think about reputation based endgame gearing and get rid of all the commedations.let every player be able to get BIS gear even if they do not run ops, they are actually deserve it all of them not just the ones who can aford to run the ops, it's about vanity, they want it so they should get it (they pay actually for it).
grinding IS boring and when u have to do it a second time or even more it's plain **********.
Reputaion based gearing and No more gear grinding!
lol just saw a post about a player complaining the he had run a op just to find out he can not have the drop but the op leader gave it to a guildie lol so this sucks they(we) should all have the same chances to get something
Have fun all out there
ps.
I would and will run dailies for gaining reputation and credits in a reputation based gearing system

There is not a single word about Kell Dragon/Shadowed or Oricon/Dread Forged gear.
It would be nice if you guys could update youre website

Hello out there,
The idea to make actually something for the crafters is brillant .
Crafting Packs with schematics and mats.Less RNG please.i would love to know what am i buying.
I want to be able to craft my own endgame stuff myself ,make it BOP, just do. it.
-
You bring up some good points.
In addition, it *is* hard to get proper mods if you
- want to keep up ALL your companions, and in addition
- want to have multiple gear sets for several companions
Indeed it gets boring, and also it will take a longer time to get to the point of simply being able to dress your companions up (and have them change every now and then). It would seem fair if the Cartel Store would somehow offer a customized solution for this. It sucks for people with not enough money, but the game isn't build on Marxist theories anyway. Besides, people who cannot afford this, are likely in the position of being unemployed, which means they have a lot more time than people who have jobs (and money) so it seems that both groups of customers would be catered this way. Those with jobs can take a short cut and buy commendations, and those without jobs can play the game 16 hrs a day, every day, to obtain their commendations in-game.
...
I think it might mildly hurt crafters, but not everybody will buy these commendations. Besides it might be a nice incentive for them to not overprice their products.
Hello again,
Yes I 100% agree with you !
About hurting crafters, i still can sell my low level crystals even if one can have them from collections, there are lots of ppl out there that are not paying for the cartel stuff ---my buyers
I'd love to see what the ppl at BW think about that.Any chance that you guys are reading this ?
edit:
@Orlogg or should we open a new thread ?
- want to keep up ALL your companions, and in addition
-
So basically what the OP is asking for is to turn the cartel market into a Pay 2 Win borderline case so that the haters can pour even more fuel on the fire?
No thanx... It really isn't that hard to get proper mods anyway.
Hey there,
Would you please define Pay2Win for me please?
Imho a p2w situation would only ocur if the gear one would get by paying for it would bring benefits otherwise not available allready ingame like let's say BIS items that none could get ingame by grinding/raids. A situation where one could buy comms(some interchangeable with planetary and/or elite) would be in no way a pay 2 win situtation
it would be just a shortcut to hours of boring grinding same areas again and again.let's see, you want to gear your alts and most ppl i know are farming plantet comms by doing H+ missions or fps geting mods from planet vendors and mailing them to their alts, is that suposed to make me enjoy the game for a looong time? no way.
i enjoy doing new missions, living the adventure, the story etc (and all that by not having aggro wife
)It really isn't that hard to get proper mods anyway ....you're right it's not it's just boring when you're doing that for the xxx-th time so what i want is just a shortcut
have fun

Hello there,
They do? Afaik additional copies can only be obtained by separate, full-price purchases at the cartel market. I don't think it's possible to get additional copies through the 'collections' (but I'll be very happen to be proven wrong on this — please tell me, if so!).just checked and I was wrong the only obtion is to buy them in CM, i confused them with the mounts where the copies come without the legacy unlock, sorry about that.
A lot of players might considered that unfair: being able to spend real money would bypass the need to develop skills.I see it as a pure personal choice, having BIS gear does not make one a good player just helps anyway we are not talking about BIS gear
I'm not sure whether I agree to that objection though...While doing dailies with my lvl 55 is still fun to me, it also takes me about an hour a day, and then I wanna play on my other characters too. Meanwhile, my wife complains that I spend too much time playing games. And personally I'm more into stories and having adventures, and am not extremely interested in the excellence of my skills, so I'd probably welcome it.Doing daillies is fun when you do them on your first char or second but just grinding for hours and hours to gear your pets is not fun anymore and by doing that i'm just getting a aggro wife myself
even if i've told her that i'm playing a simple healer not a tank .But if that would ruin the game for a lot of people who disagree, it wouldn't be worth it.I really can not understand how could that ruin the game for anyone.Crafting crystals works for me just like crafting mods and enhancements or armorings and i still can sell them and i mean the blues not the artifact ones even if one can buy them with comms or get them via collections (the crystals)
why would be the game ruined if i would spend my real money to get gear mods just to spare me the comms grinding the ones who want to spend would spend the others not, simple as that. and ofc no more aggro wife
the comms pack (not ultimate) would be the best way for me to get what i want and for BW/EA to get my money
-
...
Provided the OP idea would be implemented, should these additional copies come with in-built, non-reusable modifications too?
As far as i know the gear that one can allready buy that have mods in it lev 15 and 31 i think, doea not come back from collections with mods but just the shells so it actually be ok to not have mods in it
but anyway why not have the option to buy just a mods kit , i mean let all be as it is right now and just add a mods kit.
or let us buy a commedations pack
let's say universal comms that one could change ingame for whatever comms one need...(i can hear you not ultimate comms ...perhaps max elite?) -
Hello again out there,
OP's idea wasn't scalable mods, he knows EA will never go for scalable mods, what he was suggesting was that the game looks at the character buying, and fits in mods suitable to that character or maybe a bit lower (maxing out at the level of mods from the Corealian comms mods vendor I presume). Once fitted those mods are set at that level, and disappear if removed (which would get someone complaining I'm sure).This would be a nice addition since you don't have to pay to strip out mods from existing gear and fit those, but wouldn't change the nature of the game much. Which is why I added my support. And remember those mods would effectively be incorporated into the Price (maybe they could do a modded and unmodded price).
I must agree, but you see right now there are out there other mmo's that are offering you actually more for your money (real money) and there are also a lot more mmo's to come out this year. WoW want to offer chars upgrade to level 90 for money for example, not that i need that but to pay for gear that one can use directly now that's something i would pay for. Btw the idea to make "powerleveling services" obsolete by offering that ingame is not so bad at all- there would be no such services if there would be no demand...
anyway happy grinding

64 planetary Comms is 192 war zone Comms. That's aproximately 2 PvP matches. So 2 pvp match for each person you want fully modded at level. If PvP isn't your thing then do heroics. Heroics at level to hard? Go back to old worlds and do the heroics there solo. You will still get credits and Comms/vendor-able gear. Find the ones that just give Comms if you like.
...
Hello there,
That's WRONG, 64 planet comms would be 2560 WZ Comms
As for the op idea i'd pay for scaleable mods.why not?
Time IS Money. so if i play 2 weeks to get my ultimate comms or my gear or i pay for them it's the same thing.
I would pay and i will if that's gonna be an option.
-
hey there ,
just to have a malus for having more comps deployed at a time the developers could cut the xp gained,
say one comp ... full xp
2 comps ... 1/2 xp
3 comps ... 1/3 xp
4 comps ... 1/4 xp
...
and so on
so there would be no free lunch and most ppl would be happy.
have fun

oh, getting some social points from interacting with your comps would be great too.
i love the look of the social gear one could get on voss but woooo woooo that's not gona be that soon

due to so many ppl complaining about grouping and the wish of soloing fps and such i'll say let there be mercenaries.posted in another thread:
.Another solution would be mercenaries,let's say you can hire amercenary while on fleet, you need a healer you pay for it ,you need a dps or a tank you pay for it.You could hire them only for a specific fp and at a cost and ofc you could hire only the max amount of them needed to run that specific fp.no need to rescale anything,no need to change companion codings etc and as for the players ,think a bit, you could watch all the cutscenes you want and they won't yell at you to press that spacebar.On the other side the ones who want to group or wait for the group finder --really precious time (your time)-- to find you a group then they can still do it.so then all would be happy.Do you want a clasic group?You have it--be happy.Do you want a mercenary?You could have it.-be happy.So lots of happy ppl out there Have fun guys !!!i spent hours waiting for the group finder to find me a group for the hammer station or athis and nada.wasn't lucky with lfg's on chat either so i'll say yes to mercenaries. the ones who want to use them ok, the ones who don't fine with them too.
I play for the story and for being able to solo, because grouping up to do content ruins the experience for me, because I have to play at another players' pace, lets just say, I have been playing since release, hell early access and I have never, EVER fully seen black talon or Esseles story.I don't agree. The flashpoints and operations are made for groups. And grouping up to do them is a lot of fun. You're really missing out if you only do solo content.A lot of fun that i have actually missed because the leader wanted only to do it fast skip every cinematics taking routes in order to avoid mobs and so not doing the bonus missions or being kicked for being my first time ever on that specific fp. should i say more?
Happy subs will pay, frustrated ones will quit.for the ones of you complaining that swtor is a mmorpg and such there must be grouping i have the following quote:
Quote: Originally Posted by PhaseSpace View Post'Multiplayer' doesn't mean 'you have to group'. The game stays multiplayer even if you never join a group ever. You can still speak to people, trade, fight, all kinds of things. On top of that, some people play SWTOR only for the story or for other reasons that you probably can't imagine. "MMO kthnxbai" is simply not a valid argument.
and at last, by having mercenaries for hire you could still be able to group or doing whatever you want, as a side idea perhaps by giving the group finder a extra function for hiring those mercenaries would make more ppl happy
have fun guys and girls

"aggro wife"--
that made my day I have to agree with that too.Another solution would be mercenaries,let's say you can hire amercenary while on fleet, you need a healer you pay for it ,you need a dps or a tank you pay for it.You could hire them only for a specific fp and at a cost and ofc you could hire only the max amount of them needed to run that specific fp.no need to rescale anything,no need to change companion codings etc and as for the players ,think a bit, you could watch all the cutscenes you want and they won't yell at you to press that spacebar.On the other side the ones who want to group or wait for the group finder --really precious time (your time)-- to find you a group then they can still do it.so then all would be happy.Do you want a clasic group?You have it--be happy.Do you want a mercenary?You could have it.-be happy.So lots of happy ppl out there Have fun guys !!!
btw gotta go. Guess why?
I agree with the Wife aggro issue."babe take out the trash" "babe spend some time with us" "babe let me show you the thing that blah blah blah" "babe I'm ovulating" "babe your son wants to know where we keep the fire extinguisher" "babe can i throw out some of these old comic books? they are so dusty." "babe I'm going to organize your car trunk"
Sometimes you don't have as much time to do a long flash point as you thought you did.
I would like to see this as a possibility. But only for flash points and ops. If you allow a max of 3 companions to be summoned per player at flash points you could keep the party at max 4 for flash and 16 for Ops.
I mean you can already do a flash point with 2 players and two companions. Would it be so hard to Increase that number?
This way you could have Solo experience on flash points with 3 companions but for ops you would still need to group up with at least 4 other players to make up a 16 character party. The xp is already on a scale depending on level right? And really the companions are never as good as real players. Corso just the other day jumped down an elevator shaft to get to the bottom. Probably to avoid wife aggro.
All other game play including class quest line adventures id keep the max group at 4 and allow only one companion.
Gotta go. Guess why?
-
that's not a one time it's a ********* every time problem. get rid of it !!!!
-
You can already do this. Pick an item on the Cartel Market, buy it, then sell it on the GTN.
Packs are about 300,000 credits or more per pack.
That's nice. Then there should be no Problem having Credits.
-
We can't have it here because it makes the pve stupid easy and the pvp BiS for all lowbies, among everything said above. A thousand times no to this.
And ofc the easy way for making millions of credits would vanish. so no way to demanding that über-mega-prices on the gtn anymore. hell no way. let us ask the 20k+ for a purple mod for a lev 11 .how much should a lev 10 pay for his gear? armstech and armor tech are actually useless, they should craft armours and weapons ... oh well it's all crap , the whole crafting system should be remade.
@BioWare redesign the whole crafting system, put credits on sale on the cm and make more profit
-
I've made the same suggestion the other day.
So here is again my YES WE WANT to "Credits for Cartel Credits"
-
That's right.Credits for Cartel credits.So there would be no more room for credits Sellers over eBay or other Sites .And you will make all the Money that otherwise some Players are spending for getting them.
-
Now that's something i'd really pay big bucks for.
-
Thanks for your replies.
About crafting , yes i know that allready, the point is that i lack the credits to buy them on the GTN.I could make more chars with respective profesisons but that would need even mmore time (playtime). anyway good point.
About getting the mods only through playing the game, hmm let me think about that. there are armour sets on the CC but only for level 15 and 41, so at lev 41 i could buy them and strip the mods, i'll do that if there's no other way, like i said i am willing to pay for them real money. but i don't want to pay farmers.so if there are allready, on the the CC, ways to get the mods (only some of them) why not more?
thanks again for your answers.

Hello all out there,
I'm a casual player but have to say that i really love this game (even i'm over 40), anyway the point is that i'd like to have a skill(perk or whatever) that let me summon a vendor that can sell all the mods i'd ever need for me and my companion, make them bop so that ppl cant sell them, one could (should) purchase the vendor from cartel network(not in a pack) and(or) legacy (let's say 3 llvs , first lvl sell only greens, second blues and third artefact mods).why all this?well i can spend mosly 10 to 20(30) mins playing at once and that's not something for fp's or op's, i'm playing solo couse i have also a job kids fam etc and not too much time. so i'd pay for it. the question is who want the money you or the credit farmers?
btw if this will ever be done please use prices that are suggested by the gtn and not millions of credits -- see farmers(don't like that).
ps english is not my native language so pls excuse my vocabular
anyway as yoda would say: great game you done
)
even if i've told her that i'm playing a simple healer not a tank .
let's say universal comms that one could change ingame for whatever comms one need...(i can hear you not ultimate comms 
...perhaps max elite?
I love the new gearing system

Yes! I'm playing since 2012 and for the first time am i able to really enjoy the whole end game content ,I have all of my alts in 306 and i am working at getting the set bonus for few more adv classes (have them all).
I know it's rng but i just love it the way it is.
Oh btw i have all crafters also but's another story that need to be fixed !
Anyway thanks BW for that xpansion !
