Never? Darth Maul ring a bell? (You know the Zabrak in the Phantom Menace that was a sith Lord)

Not actually true for all casuals. The guild I am in is casual and they been here since launch and "shock" they still play. I was lucky enough to find a guild like this when I came here.

Not a big deal to me. I don't get bothered by romances to a NPC.

There are reasons people refuse to group up in heroics (1) They want to do it themselves. (2) They don't know you (3) They don't like blind invites. DO NOT give me the excuse well you are in an open area so it is not the same. If you are waiting for something to respawn YOU CAN ask them first. The excuse it is an open area is wearing thin on these types of post. You are waiting for something to respawn and you can't ask someone to group up and then you want to know why they don't group. Sorry, asking first is polite. (4) They are waiting for someone to log on and if they are in the middle of something they are going to log and go join their friends, boyfriend, girfriend, spouse and leave the area. Some people are playing with people and they do not want to get in a group if they are waiting for someone to log on. (5) They don't like to group with people that tend to want to continue in the group even after you disband from the group. They recieve messages like (a) Why did you disband (b) You should have stayed in the group © Can I put you on my friend's list. and then when you log on hey can you come help me do this........ Yes those things have happened. Some of us have been through that too many times and yes on heroics. I will group: (1) If someone has enough courtesy to ask me first (Reread #3 before you say I don't have time) Have a good day.

Of all the stupid idiot things to do. You put a mission for a companion for pvp and don't give a person a way to reject it. Do you have any brains? Do you dont' realize there are people that hate to pvp? Stupid, stupid, stupid. If you going to do something that essentially forces a person that hates to do pvp then this is not about our choices. I know people who essentially will freeze up when they enter a warzone. Did you even consider this? Hell no you don't use the brains you have to consider that. You just hear all the complaints on the pvp side wanting more people so you stupid people think it would be fun to push people into pvp just for a stupid damn companion and then you decide to lock the others behind this so you can't get anymore. Do me a favor and remember not everyone likes to pvp. I can get someone to take me so not a damn problem for me but it is for people I know and for those that freeze up doing pvp it is a major problem. Stupid idea that you can' t reject one!

I like the story but what disappointed me was The fact that my boyfriend and I were forced, yes forced, to do the first three chapters solo, which was contrary to what they said. They said it could be done in groups, though you would have to do it twice. Not so true, they failed to mention the first 3 chapters you have no choice but to solo them. My boyfriend and I went to my ship, like we have done on Ziost and I clicked to start and imagine my surprise he couldn't join me for the first 3 chapters. I don't care if you all think this is not a problem but to those of us that have grouped with people from launch this was a major disappointment. Even in my class story he was able to travel with me to Point Nowhere, etc as long as he was on my ship. This was not the case here and this is not something they should force you to do. Yes forced it you want to do the story you have to do the first 3 chapters solo, you are not given a choice. Bad move bioware!

I was unable to sub for part of one month and will not get the reward nor the early access but it was my fault, not BW. I am taking fully responsibilty for my actions. I don't expect them to turn around and then let us buy the items. It would be a slap in the face for those that stayed sub for all t hose months and very unfair to them. The information has been here when they first announced the expansion. This is given to sub and it should be. Subs that have stayed and supported the game, even though all the problems, should have something special. I know subs that have been here since prior to launch and no matter how upset they get over some things, they have stuck with the game and supported them.

Well I thought of something when I was looking at this outfit on my boyfriend and he laughed, which I imagine some of you will as well. The top of this armor can actually be used as a dress for a lady. It is long enough and design in the right way and when dyed pink it makes a nice dress.

What about the ones that have been requesting an option to level together in the new expansion without having to do it twice, where is our option ? What is fair for one group should be fair to the others.

Why would I be against it being optional? I think this is a good idea to allow people to help other players that are lower level and guild members. Why should it be optional when people have requested an option to group up with friends/boy/girlfirends/spouses/guild mates and told to deal with it. People tell these people that it is resources and BW can't do it well if some of you can tell us that then why would I ever support them making an option for this. Maybe it seems a bit strange to you but I will not support this when all we get from people when we ask for an option is "deal with it." Of course some of you are going to say the majority wants this because of your circle of friend but when I check the forums it is the same ones arguing about an option, that does not make a majority and other sites outside this forum I rarely trust. On the game that would also depend on your server and when I was playing last night there was not a majority not liking it. So since they couldnt' make an option for something that people have asked for since we learned of the expansion I don't think they should make an option for this.

And people in this forums are acting mature? I don't think so. And on that note have a good week.

I think it is a good idea to be able to help your friends or guild members without hurting their level. It is good that there is a challenge now on these other planets. Oh yes I know some of you want an option. But funny thing is when some of us ask for an option on the mission on the new expansion as we like to group with our friends/boy/girlfriends/spouses we were told you not going to have an option so you have to deal with it and do it solo or do it twice. We were always told by a lot of you that we needed to deal with it well now: You are going to have to deal with this.

I know it is a strange concept to some of you that people actually like to play the game with their friends, boyfriends, spouses but people have came to the game just to do that. We enjoy playing with them, a total shocking experience, I know, but not any less important than some of you wanting to play the game solo,except most of the times we are ridiculed or worse from people because they don't understand how people like playing together. Have you ever taken the time to consider some of these individuals play together because they are separated right now due to one of them being in the service and this is something they can do together. No, of course not, you don't care about those people. All some of you want to do is worry about some stupid NPC romance, which is the same for everyone. That is the only thing that is important to you and who cares about how someone else plays. You don't give a damn about anything but your damn self. Maybe if you would take the time to see that there could be others that enjoy playing like that you might have a little compassion instead of not understanding. My best friend plays with her boyfriend and they have always played together and with him being in the service this game is a way they can do something together. But does anyone care? Hell no, not even BW. They could have put in an option but no that was too difficult for them and who the hell cares!

Why is it silly? I am going to miss out as well but I am not asking for him to be put on the cartel shop for something I did. It was very clear on the page you had to be subbed for one of two days and if not then it is our fault not BW and no they should not give in to those complaining it should be given to us. I accepted responsibility for my actions , something that everyone should do and not expect BW to not hold to what they said as it is a sub only by a set date and on this one they gave you two dates to get it.

Actually not everyone. I am unsure whether I will get him due I had to cancel my sub for a bit but that was something I did. They have a rewards system and it officially states how you would get the reward. If you don't sub by the date then it is your fault. I am not going to whine or blame BW for something that was in my control. It was stated for a while how to obtain the rewards.

I don't think it should be available on the cartel market. No I am not speaking as one that will get him. I had to let my sub lapse for a little while so I will not be getting him but I still do not believe that an exculsive award, whether it is a companion or something else should ever be offered in the cartel market. If they do that , it takes away from the reason they are awards. Yes I know I would have like to have him but I am not going to support the notion that exclusive awards, even companions, should be offered in a cartel market. I will miss out on him but that is something I expect and so should everyone else that didn't sub by the deadline. Deadlines are for a reason and they even extended the deadlines. So No please do not offer it as a cartel item, even though that means I don't get it.

Contracts are redone a lot of the times and we both know you don't have the entire facts when you take a contract as a bounty hunter. You are only given a version of the facts and when you find your contract you have the option (in some cases) to talk to them and learn their version and then decide. Whether you listen to them is your choice but it doesn't make your way right all the time either. You seem to want everyone to play the way you perceive them to play. If everyone played the way you seem to think and didn't have their own story then it would be boring. I know people who are roleplayers and their stories are a lot better than the ones that are done in the game and at least we dont' have a million Dark council members. I know you are going to argue with this post, as that seems to be your way of doing it, but I am not going to argue back with you. I said what I wanted and that is all I will say.

I know that this may not be important to a lot of people as they are worried more about the companions but this question is important to me and whether or not I do the expansion. Can I still group and do my missions with my boyfriend? If I have to solo then I will not be doing it as playing solo is not what I want to do. I am not speaking about flashpoints or operations, just normal missions, even if we have to do it twice. If we can't do then the expansion is not for me.

No, I disagree they do not "need" to fix it as I don't think it is broken. I like the blue glow on the turret. I think it looks great that way.

Honesty, No big deal for me. Sure I flirted with the guys once in awhile, but never did I marry them due to the fact their lines were always the same for every person that had them. It was never original so why get upset over a companion that repeats the same line to another person. Anyways that my two cents.

Still no answer to one question myself and my friends would like to know: How will grouping work? I.E. Can you still group like we did in Yavin, Ziost even if we have to do it twice in a group. Maybe not important to some of you but important to myself and some of my friends as we have always played in groups since launch.

I like to know what that means and not months down the line. This will help me make a decision whether I stay as a sub or not. Yes, I know all about the story and the companions is important to everyone but if I have to solo then they can forget it. I will leave. I didn't come to play this game on my own. I play it with my boyfriend and if these people want to force me to solo the story, then h...ll with them.

Figures, oh well I should have figured they didn't care about groups. I honestly have lost any excitement over this expansion.

I like grouping and I do it with my boyfriend. I noticed that when SOR was released we had to do the same missions twice for them to count, minus the flashpoints. That is unacceptable to me. Yes I know we can do it twice or solo them but how many of you want to be told you can only do this in a group and not your playstyle. I doubt you want to be told you have to do a certain playstyle, but yet that is essentially what BW is doing to the individuals who group, do it twice or solo. We don't care you like grouping, you don't have the choice. These missions are generic the same missions no matter what. I have done SOR because of the stupid way they did it because it makes us do it twice or solo. If i wanted to solo things I would not have subscribed to this game. And don't give me the excuse it is because of the romance arc in SOR and Ziost, give me a break, the romance arc is done exactly the same way no matter what character you do it. I have a friend that has done it over 10 times and it was the same no matter what character she did it. They can make it like someone said on those romance arc as they did with the Voss Trial Missions, where it splits into two different conversation since it just a conversation.

We are asking for an option for some of us that want to do this. They gave an option in the 12xp I do not see why we have to suffer doing it twice, because some people like you don't understand that some of us want an option. Is it okay for you to have everything you want but others like me and people I know not to have an option to be able to group and share the mission? I frankly could care less about what companion I have but I understand that people like their companions and get all crazy over an NPC companion but yet when it comes to having an option for us to group with others and share the mission, people like you don't understand we would like an option. Can you stop looking at what only you want for a change and see we are only asking for an option.
