  1. Moving the story on, well that's what they are doing. Moving to a state at the hight of the republic won't work for this game as 50% of character are imperial. They could of done what you said instead of doing KotET, but they did not. Could have jumped 100-1000 years into the future with you (your characters) been frozen but then it would be..... I put in hours to levelling my companions blah blah blah, so understand why BW did not do this. Yes could end the game and start afresh but same thing as above. It really was a shame that the player base hated KotET as to me this is what you were asking, a new start, new enemy. The only real disappointment I had with it, was it was a reborn emperor so to- speck in a stolen body. That was disappointing. Not to mention the time frame, just seemed wrong. For him to have grown children, I mean how long was it from Yavin to the Hunt? What you are asking, I cannot see that ever happening until this game shuts down, even then don't assume you get what you want. As I very much doubt what comes next will be a continuation of this version of SW. So not expecting a direct sequel to this game as this one is to KOTOR
  2. I do what I did before GS were even a thing. Play the game, by levelling up characters, Still have many low levelled characters. Picking options not yet pick for story, to hear alternative dialog Getting gear as very few of my character(s) are above 320, for my level 80's Earn credits for unlocks, Buy the odd item from Cartel with month CC when I get enough to buy armour sets I still want. However this is very few as mainly I don't care for the designs of the sets for the most part. Do conquests which takes up most of my play time, as I am in solo guilds
  3. LOL. Right, like this has never been asked for before.
  4. Probably (most likely) or Easter.
  5. Thanks for the info. Seems a silly way to do it, but it is what it is. Probably just do without GTN and send my own characters out for gear mats. Plans am getting around 4 to 8 a week and considering the cost off GTN, not really worth what is been asked. So will just take longer to open all doors. Still nice to know what I was doing wrong, so thank you. I did know about claiming as I brought a armour sets a week or so ago.
  6. I think it's a fair opinion. It's useful for outfit designer only, but OK for that as not the outfit designer does not need to filled with mods. . Neither outfits I would use but personal like or dislike changes nothing when talking about useful. So agree with your conclusion. For the OP, free stuff is free stuff, you may not use it, others will. As for GS, outfits did not care for as said, but the decorations and dyes I did like.
  7. Not having an issue with buying as such, but am finding differcult to understand if I am buying a single item or a stack of items. Mainly this is for mats and stuff where normally not buying a single item. I was looking for ship plans and cannot find quantity. Probably is staring me in the face--but!
  8. Yes, this is true. The introduction of the Jawa venders which you can buy mats will have a impact on the GTN, in both cost and supply, which in turn deconstruction only added to this. So yes fully agree on this. To the OP. BW did try to address this by changing the cost of mats from the Jawa's. At the start it was 1 metal per mat, which later changed to amount per craft level. A fair trade of after a while. I say after a while due to the fact that A lot of us had large amount from cartel packs, which greatly devalued them for which players had paid real money for. Long term though it probably was better for the game. Once you know the value, you add this factor into buying the packs, which is fine after the fact, before the fact, not so much. As for your accrual question on how do you report bots? Well that is a fair question as at present time it's long winded, it not easily done for most players unless you can record the game to send evidence off with your report to one of the staff. The standard reporting of player(s) does not cover reporting bots. So unfortunately only a answer by Broadsword will address this. We can all give opinions but that's all it is, opinions. Still I do think that a quick easy way should be added in game to address this. However personally I have not seen a bot in some time. Sure they must still be there but maybe I just not overly bothered by what other players are doing, so just don't notice anymore.
  9. Never said they had been removed, said the changes made to them or inclusion of them ruined they game. Welcome to you does not equal good for the game or other players. All it meant is the slow erosion of things to do in game. That is never a good thing long term for any game. If you chose to play many alts as clearly both of us do, then that's a choice you made, a new character has not earned these things. Datacrons are not needed to play the game, so if board getting them, then don't I fully agree with the OP. That the removal of abilities and other changes were not good, nor were any of the removal of none class quests. So yes on that we agree.
  10. Short answer should be yes, it's to late. Real answer is with BW, now Broadsword never say never.
  11. For the most part OP I agree with you. Remember a lot of this was asked for by the player base. Never the majority just the loudest as per usual on BW's part to whom they listen to. However that aside I think the removal of quests, the removal on individual character things to do such as Datacron, quick travel, all played a hand in damaging the game. Still removal of abilities has to be there ahead of the others IMO. On same page as you on this topic. However on this have no issue if other have other things on there list of things that heart the game. Still worth remembering most of these changes were asked for.
  12. While I'm sure you get endless posts supporting you on this. I'm not one of them. I don't need them to hold my hand. A post by them that says nothing of value is pointless. Also depends on what you mean by a post by them? As last post was 3rd of Jan.
  13. If players are so confused as you claim, then maybe they should rethink if PvP is for them. As soon as they change this, all that will happen is threads will complain about whoever comes out on top. Don't pretend for one second that won't happen. The first class i remember was trooper, then inquisitor, then bounty hunter then juggernauts now back to inquisitor regardless of gear. Maybe do away with PvP altogether. The only thing I agree with you one is yes the whingeing only ever succeeds in making the game worse. As it never go's the way players want, and players who play said class (which ever happens to be the class in question) then complain it too much, and complain about the class now on top. This is never ending. I have been playing now for IDK 7 years approx. maybe longer. never in all that time after endless rebalances by BW have the player base been happy. Nerfing this won't stop the complaints, it will just move to something else within PvP.
  14. I just don't believe they need to be reined in. They are not that overpowered. It's like complaining that a tank has better survivability. The issue with threads like this is always the same, rein in one class, then another just become the most powerful, then you'll get threads complaining about that class ETC ETC. Continue down this path then all that happens is you'll get just one class in effect as there be no difference between the classes which make it pointless in having classes. Which to me is far more harmful to the game overall. Which also means you can no longer have unique abilities for classes. Has BW ever done a class rebalance that improved the game? not IMO, of course this answer will change from player to player who only plays one class, but as someone who plays all. I don't think so.
  15. Which is why Jedi should never be aloud to play games of chance. lol However joking aside, yes Qui-Gon was hardly the poster boy for Jedi integrity in the SW franchise. "The road to hell is paved with good intentions."
  16. No that's not a fact, it's still your opinion. The fact you cannot understand the difference mean as far as I am concerned nothing you say on this topic has any meaning. No has to justify liking this expansion to you, anymore then you have to justify your dislike. I did enjoy it yes, that's not saying that I would not have liked a separate story for each class, that however in IMO does not make it a bad story. If it was necessary to do a cost cutting exercise then that's what they had to do. It's always hard when things change, going from 8 stories to two, then one, is never going to go down well. Still better IMO than the game ending altogether.
  17. Very much what I was expecting. A mixed bag. Some good, changes to GTN, new kind of dye pack improvements Some bad, yet again stuck with companions in story I don't care for or like. Bad, no new conversations with old companions, or LI's Good, new story, new daily area, I really do like new daily areas for planets. Story while looks short at least looked interesting, Plus added story with Lane Vizsla as extra. Bad, no update on crafting. Good, news of many years to come, to me this was the most positive thing of the stream. 😍 Bad Other than a hideous armer set nothing else for life day. Yes this matters as for long term players there no reason to take part. Good, new deco's from the life day vender (yes am separating this from the game event of life day.) Neither good or bad .... visible gaming, OK yes it is an improvement, but for the most part I rather they spent there time on new stuff instead of going over old stuff. Neither good or Bad, new World Boss. I have stopped doing WB's due to player(s) not waiting until group is ready as such this is just not ever going to be done by me. Or older WB's now. Still for others this will be welcome.
  18. This is only true for much more recent armour sets, not any of the older ones had this, none of these older sets that had hoods up could be warn down. FlatTex is correct this was done purposefully at the time. If and yes it's a big if, it gets a reskin the new set may offer a choice. However that is not a given. However as mentioned there are ways. Helmets which you then use hide headgear will remove it as a visible hood (remember this is not on every item of headgear) Also some species auto remove the hood, such as Twi'lek the species I use this set on the most on. I dare say that it is removed from any species which has a simular head.
  19. Yes also often having the same issue with quests target not showing, or direction if on/in another area. also often scavenging nodes don't always show. Yes have checked map filters to make sure it is selected. yes they were all removed and were set to QT points and taxis. WHY? So a slight diversion from topic, but still relevant I think. Why are my setting often been changed? I login to a character to find that Rocket boost has been removed, quick travel, fleet pass, some time legacy mount, stealth. Some character just 1 or 2, other times as many as 10 abilities removed as from my ability bars. ????? Don't get it.
  20. Well, on this I personally agree as don't care for the hologram deco's. I have however used a few. Same as you see in the film(s) were you have serval characters around a table in conference and some not physically there. That of cause does not take away the disappointment that they are holograms. Would it hurt to have both? As drop deco's see no reason not to have both, for some players it would give more reason to redo the FP in hopes of getting the other. As some do like them it's probably not fair to remove them totally from the game. Having both would be nice.
  21. A. Meant to work without piloting skill. B Improved mount works on my characters, know this as started a few new consular on different servers for the GS which required this class. Started new ones as it was just quicker. Also wanted to try Sage as all my others were shadows. As this mount was the only one the character had. It worked. Cannot say I have noticed on other character as have many mounts, so chances of this mount being pick as random were slim anyway C. Yes, Unforuntetlly my companion were indeed dismissed as well. when using this mount. On mine the companion just did not reappear when getting of the mount, regardless of combat or not. As such it seems as with so many other bugs different players are experiencing different affects from the bug. Not that this surprises me any more. This is for my other account, as have permanent sub on this one anyway so had no need to buy the bungle
  22. I have several accounts that are preferred as in all have been subbed many time over. Tried to post using one of these just to see today. The one I tried could not post.
  23. It won't be lore, no Jedi don't do that. Which is why it was not allowed to begin with. After 10 years though for most it won't be there first Jedi character so really make little difference to most players. However if you are new to the game or coming back to the game and lore is required, even if only for your own enjoyment, Then switch back, You posted here, so are a sub, you can have the choice between two skill classes. Just remember if you ever unsub, make sure you have the class skill set to what you want to keep. As when you unsub you can no longer change class. Remember class and skill tree are not the same.
  24. Does anyone know? No, Unfortunately none of us do. Someone might suggest a reason and happen to be right, but without a conformation by a staff member, it still a guess until confirmed. If we are going to put forward guess work as to why, I guess the new forums operate on the same priceable that a lot of social networks do, ban a word without understanding the sentence the word is in. Sometimes you can even quote a sentence the article has in it, only for them to say that sentence is not allowed under hate speech rules, despite the fact it is a direct quote from them in the acritical you have just read. It could easily be any or a combination of the other suggestions made here, or even just a new bug on the forum site. I am not one who needs staff to endlessly post replies on the forums, but sometimes a reply is needed. I think this is one of those times
  25. Well, I have to take your word on that as clearly the rest of us can only see what is on the forum. So if post(s) are hidden or removed we would not know. However I certainly can see a lot of your posts within this thread. If some are gone, well... Post are often removed subjects/posts to approval, if someone makes a complaint. regardless if the complaint is justify or not, or correct or not. Sadly this is the world we now live in. Try making a point on a lot of the social media or online news articles. Make these look good if nothing else. I don't agree with most of what you put in your opening post. However as many have mentioned it was well written out. If nothing else, BW most likely will at least have a discussion on it, as they claim they read (or at least a member of staff) reads every post. However IMO they won't comment on the subject its self. Only post in this thread with the normal warning about being polite or however they phase it these days. However your constant use of "white knighting" others should get your posts removed, it is a way of belittling others and undermining their point of view, which is against the CoC. A lot of us have had posts removed in the past for similar posts.
