  1. I honestly love how casuals were all: "Oh!!! This is gonna be great!! Finally, we get rid of the elitist ranked pvpers and we also get access to the rewards they had to work for!! Justice!!" Also, every one had already called that premades ravaging the queue was a given that would happen, especially early on as people will try to get done with the season quickly. Yet, a lot of casual pvpers were looking forward to that and didn't listen to the ranked crowd cause they wanted the rewards without having the required skill. Not constructive, but had to be said. Enjoy the lockout and positive gameplay sprinkled with lack of toxicity folks!!
  2. Kinda sad to see any part of a game getting completely removed. Played in seasons 8 and 9 in ranked both in solo and especially group ranked. Started as a PVE doing pvp for mats and stuff (dont remember what they had us farm in pvp back then but even PVEers had to ar some point do some PvP). I was bad at a lot of things when i started but actually the ranked community helped me git gud. First couple of games in solo i said right off the bat: Guys, tell me who to focus and sorry in advance, this is gonna suck! A player (dont remember his name) pmed after the game and gave me some tricks and invited me on a pvper TS channel and thats when i really got better. My experience with ranked has been good honestly. Of course, you'll have a lot of trash talk before, during and after the game but that's normal competitive behavior. Personally, i don't trash talk, ever, havent been raised that way, but i have been targeted by those a lot in competitive sports by mostly people who have to resort to that strategy cause they are lacking in skills. It's mostly the same in ranked. I always just let it roll off my back. In swtor, at least you can ignore the extremists that follow you around and whisper you. Anyways, sad to see ranked go. I don't play ranked anymore cause i lack the time to stay "in shape" for ranked and i'd rather not play than be a hindrance to my team. On the topic of rewards, it's kind of dumb to expect to be able to have the same rewards for doing easier content as someone who is good at doing harder content. Period. I know the "modern", idiotic way of thinking is "i exist therefore i should be celebrated and affirmed by the entire world" but that's really not how life works. You want the good stuff? Work hard, better yourself, make a difference, it'll pay off, in life and in a videogame.
  3. Wow! You have no idea how this resonates with me! I have done exactly the same voyage. Up until 4.0, we had so much fun. The content (of course was imperfect) was great. And we had had what 7 raids in 2 years ish? Like pugging during thise days was fun. And then they slashed us with 4 and 5.0.... most of my guild left. 4 raid teams i was in, pretty much everyone left. Guess i'll have to stay with those pre-2016 memories.
  4. I work in HVAC engineering and when i have designers or project managers trying to reinvent the wheel, i ask them: What does the client want? What's his budget? What's our budget? Do you have the required field experience to bring this design to fruition? Is the client gonna be a returning customer because of this design? Is it too complicated for the customer? Will he be able to operate it? And, when I have employees coming to show mw the projects and plans, when it's not up to par, i tell them: call the client in front of me and tell them you need another couple of days to finalize the plans. Cause this piece of dunk ain't going out of the office. Apparently, no one at at BW asks any questions (or more aptly, read any feedback seriously) about what the customer wants. And clearly, no one makes any kind of quality control as is apparent with this POS "expansion" that they gave us, filled with bugs and not a lot more. Anyways, someone needs to shake things up at BW. Some people have been working on this for too long and seem to think they own all the good ideas. Git gud BW. Take the old wood out. Listen to your customers. Hold accountable those that have led this fiasco.
  5. LOL! By doing the new "story" if you can call it that... Takes 2 quests to go from 75 to 80 so no reason to "gear" in between...
  6. This is preposterous!!! The story took me a little over an hour. I thought i had just finished the prologue of the expansion story content. I just couldn't believe I had already finished the story. It's ridiculous. Really.... I'm completely disgusted by the lack of regard for the players on the part of BW. I have been with the game since before launch. I stuck with the game through the 4.0/5.0 content drought but this is too much. I'll go play anything else but this. 7.0 has less cpntent than the Ossus update. It makes 4.0 and 5.0 look like real expansions.... GG Bioware. You won. You can go work on another project. It won't take long for people to have the same reaction as most of us and just pull the plugs on our subs. You were warned. Everyone told you: Don't mess this up for 7.0 cause it's your last chance... Anyways, in the end, i think i'm just sad cause my favorite game in the last 10 years is now dead to me... so much time and effort and even love to our characters...Distaste, disgust, sadness, deception is what were left with... Ciao bye :(
  7. This is ridiculous. Just leave the classes as is and let us choose like intelligent people what abilities and when to use them. You are literally taking abilities that for the most part are there since 1.0 and getting rid of them for bo real reason. Actually you're not even getting rid of the off GCD button bloat on Sentinels. And taking about abilities bloating... Remember that you Bioware added Furious Power as ANOTHER off-GCD ability. You also added the need in sub-75 content to use the clicky alacrity relic as yet ANOTHER off-GCD ability to click. If you wanna get rid of ability bloat, get rid of, first the clicky relic that we HAVE to use cause you can't seem to level sync content properly. And then don't give other abilities like Furious Power which is clearly designed as an ability to help you guys do class balance easily by adjusting the buff on this ability (class balance which failed btw...). Regarding TTK in PvP, basically if you have top level players, the TTK is gonna be high unless a major mistake is commited by one of them. It's as simple as that. This is the same as if you pit 2 high seeded players in a chess game. Why is TTK so high? Cause they are good! And the community of people doing ranked PvP is quite small. Some have been playing for a really long time. Of course they are good and are hard to kill. If you wanna fix TTK on Assassins and Sentinels, just get rid of the abusable Tacticals like Two Cloaks and Defel Spliced Genes. Having a 5% health player vanish every 30secs is completely ridiculous. Again, YOU BW made it that way. Plus reducing the CD on Operatives' roll is also stupid and increases TTK on yet another class. And thats from a set bonus you huys inteoduxed in 6.0. Grit Teeth can also be added tonthe list caus it van be abused against mediocre players that just attsck you through it. Oh and BTW, guess what classes are most played in PvP matches? Marauders, Operatives and Assassins... Onstead of fixing TTk with a lazy remake of classes (while also breaking any feel these classes had), fix the mistakes of the past you guys have done please. Honesty, as a lot of people have already said, PTS feels like a scam. Just like when your fast food chain changes the size of the coffee cup citing a BS survey that people like better how the new cup "feels" which also a way to reduce by X% the volume of coffee they put in each cup. Like is feedback really taken in consideration BW? It doesn't feel like it. It's weird cause I've never seen so much of the people in the forums agree on anything ever before. And that's really telling. When the forums actually agree on something, it really scaring 😨 This means that players who never agree on anything normally now agree to the fact that the class changes coming are bad for the game and bad for how the classes feel. Please stop with this nonsense BW.
  8. So, I never write anything on the forums but this is clearly a time when i need to add my voice to what seems to be the quorum in this thread: Bioware, please don't do this... I tried PTS and i was immediately saddened by the state that the guardian was in. I just shut the game down so frustrating it was to see that I had now to choose between 3 defensive abilities on my tank. I already have the choice to use or not a specific ability at any given time. This is enough choice. DCD bloat? If I'm not mistaken, the only DCD added to Guardians over time has been Blade Blitz which is at best a situational ability that still needs a little bit of skill to use correctly. As far as I'm concerned, I was really hyped for 7.0 with Combat Styles combined with Loadputs seeming like a nice addition, being able to concentrate on playing on less alts to have the versatility needed for my raid teams. But, I was like: What is Bioware gonna mess up this time around? Well, there's my answer. If this Combat Style aberration that we have on PTS goes through with those "choices" and ends up limiting us in the use of our classes, there is gonna be a huge backlash from the playerbase. Some of us have stood for years with you. Please, listen to our feedback. This is Bioware's chance to really make SWTOR a great game and give content to the players. This is make or break. I don't see how the game can get through another HUGE mistake like this. Hasn't the 4.0 content drought and the 5.0 Galactic Command taught Bioware anything? Where is Galactic Command now? Nowhere. Learn from your mistakes please and don't make another even bigger one. Edit: Here is a list of available Guardian DCDs and in which patch they were added to demonstrate that the logic Jackie is citing does not hold up at all: 1) Saber Ward: Knight Ability: 1.0 2) Awe (mild DCD for Defense): Knight Ability: 1.0 3) Blade Blitz: Knight Ability: 4.0 4) Enure: Guardian Ability: 1.0 5) Focused Defense: 1.2 6) Warding Call: Defense Ability: 1.0 7) Saber Reflect: Guardian Ability: 2.0 So the great majority of content has been delivered while Guardians had all their DCDs save for Blade Blitz. C'mon there has been no DCD ability bloat. C'mon, from SnV and onwards Guardians had the same DCDs save again for Blade Blitz....
  9. Oh my hi Skar! It's Valor, we raided a bit in 2018 together. You had formed a group and we like did a couple of timed runs and you disappeared and then I disappeared lol. Anyways, just wanted to say hi.
  10. Wie der Titel sagt suche ich eine raid Gilde . Egal ob SM HC oder NiM ( e+e 5.0 ) . Die meiste Zeit kann ich aber leider nur Wochenends. Das soweit zu mir bei,Interesse gerne melden
  11. Mythic guild is disbanded. They are known for exploiting. And so are you. Birds of a feather flock together. They were already reported for that and banned as well. What was the reason of your banishment? Was it starfighter? Botting on starfighter that is? I'd rather to spend my time on services and get adequate payment for that than to cheat by having some script set to farm achievements for me while being AFK. In my eyes you are not reliable source of knowledge. I just want to kindly ask you to leave this topic.
  12. I am guessing that's gonna be just group finder requirement. You should be able to enter there 'manually' with your mates. The idea seems to be to exclude less experienced players. Which is fine by me.
