  1. Claiming that trans issues are the result of someone's holy book is a reductive argument.

     

    The real issue is, as someone pointed out, how trying to translate a real-world social issue into a Star Wars one doesn't always translate well.

     

    I mean, with the technology available in Star Wars I doubt there are any trans people as we know them at all. You can probably pay someone a truckload of credits and undergo a complete and total gender change down to the cellular level. It'd entirely skip the middleman of trans culture. You'd just have some 14 year old girl with body dysmoprhia and a week later he's a 14 year old boy.

  2. It's time to bring back Master Strike/Ravage for Knights/Juggs, Expertise on PvP gear, acquiring said gear via Warzome comms and a resurgence of Space Missions.

     

    Oh, and maybe raising the credit cap for free players. 200-350k may have been workable during RotHC, but you can earn that in minutes now. Maybe raise it to 500k-1mil for F2P/Preferred?

     

    How do you earn 350K in "minutes"?

  3. When did they do this? The last time I played, they’d done some thing like this game and made it all too easy.

     

    A few expansions ago.

     

    Now you actually get WEAKER when you level. Yes, you read that right. Leveling causes you to lose 2% of your stats each time. You are REQUIRED to farm better gear immediately or fall behind.

     

    When the most recent expansion dropped, characters at 110 were actually the strongest in PvP taking people 3 at a time because they didn't have the stat reductions. You basically suck more and more and more until you hit max level and then curve out of the hole with end game gear.

  4. Please God no.

     

    World of Warcraft adopted a terrible scaling system that made everything hard as hell and lowered your stats when you leveled. I abandoned that to come back to this game. Please don't turn this game's leveling into that self-torture.

     

    You want a harder game? Companion off, play without gear on. There. Your game is harder.

  5. No light/dark requirement

     

    I am subbed

     

    Yes, it is a orange lightsaber so it has an open crystal slot.

     

    Not sure what you mean by "overwrite"

     

     

    What I mean is when you open the moddable item, and you right click the crystal, does it at least APPEAR in the slot on the item? Is the issue that it won't go over at all, or it gives you an error when you try to press apply?

  6. I always found the widespread use of slavery to be a little strange. The old meme of "Slavery gets #### done" might be true, but in the real world we didn't have access to such insanely good technology. If we can easily make droids that can understand advanced combat tactics why do we need slaves? You can have droids with barely any sentience at all, if any, to do basic commands of work and labor. Droids you don't need to feed, don't need to sleep, don't get complex medical conditions, don't get pregnant, don't grow old...

     

    You plug them in instead of having them sleep, replace a few parts instead of needing healthcare, and the truly ancient are replaced. So why isn't 90% of all labor in the galaxy droid based?

     

    At this point I think the widespread slavery bit is just used to add more cartoon evil to bad guys to make them more bad guy-ish.

  7. I'm currently rolling a sith juggernaught as my warrior character but I noticed that the basic attacks seem to be doing ony two strikes in the combo with a short delay in between the combos. Is this normal for the juggernaut? Seems like the attacks are very slow.

     

    I wouldn't worry about the speed of your basic attacks. I main a Sith Immortal and tank for my guild in Operations and I can tell you that we don't actually use that button all that often. Eventually, regardless of what spec you are, you will settle into a core Rage spending rotation that will have "Filler" buttons between uses. Your basic will seldomly be used. I wouldn't concern yourself about it too much.

  8. "I had my companion out instead of doing Crew Skills. I also set it to spend all of its time Healing me constantly and now I am upset my life is not in danger."

     

    Do you realize what this sounds like?

     

    Turn off the companion. Don't improve your gear until it gets too hard to progress. The game is as easy or as hard as you choose to focus it. I will never understand the mentality of people that push the envelope in everything they do, then act shocked there is no challenge.

  9. After rechecking my UI a dozen times, I find I can no longer see the exact numbers of my health, my companions health, or my target's health.

     

    Is this for real?

     

    Please tell me I just missed it somewhere. Tell me this was not removed from the game.

  10. Not all of us have a goal of getting a character to 50

     

    in fact a lot of us don’t

     

    It is like saying if you didn’t wear out the engine in your car in less than the warranty, don’t blame me

     

    well.... I don’t blame you, I may laugh at you, but I don’t blame you

     

    That's like playing a game of pool and just refusing to sink the 8 ball because you are just having so much fun bouncing it off the rails for three hours straight.

  11. The amount of people screaming how unfair the 1.2 patch is to the non-50 folk is absurd. More to the point, is this so called "Spacebar Spammer" accusation I seen in every single thread related to it.

     

    I have a 50, a 36, a 33, a 32, and a 19.

     

    I did not "Spacebar Spam", I work 6 days a week, and I play in two tabletop RPG games a week while also taking night classes for Art and Astronomy that are three hours a piece.

     

    AND I HAVE A 50.

     

    Seriously, I was totally with you guys sighing at the no lifers that were 50 before New Year's Eve. THAT was Spacebar Spamming. It is now almost halfway through April, FIVE MONTHS LATER.

     

    I don't know if you just subbed recently, but I got my first character to 50 casually amidst all of that busy schedule in about 45 days. That is 1.5 months of the 5 this game has been out. I am the very definition of the casual, and I have a 50. Please stop assaulting Bioware because you are either:

     

    A.) So addicted to making alts that your ADHD prevents you from getting even ONE to 50. Really, not one?

     

    B.) So unbelievably into roleplaying (not that I blame you), that you spend so much time idling around that you never got a single character to 50. If you really enjoy RP THAT much, maybe you should engage in a full RPG and not an MMO that wants you to like, interact with stuff.

     

     

    TL;DR: PEOPLE THAT COULDN'T GET TO 50 IN 150 DAYS SHOULD NOT BE MAD AT BIOWARE TRYING TO BE NICE TO PEOPLE!

  12. That's a concept that's way too hardcore for me, and probably most players.

     

    Let's say work/family/boredom keeps you away from the game for a couple months. You come back, and your 50 is now a 30. Instead of being able to do endgame with your friends you're stuck leveling again through content you've already done. That probably would make me permanently unsub.

     

    Yeah, it would be bad enough to have to have to download the patches, relearn your class after whatever changes were made to abilities and skill points, and regear... then to stab you in the back with de-leveling, making you pay to learn things you already knew!
