When they said they are working on new group content, what did they mean by that? Why wouldn't they say "we are working on a new operation" instead of group content?
Yeah after they said they would start working on operations after kotfe launched, I thought we'd be getting something a few moths later. I guess they might have meant after kotfe was over, but I believe if they had new ops in the works, there was no reason for them not to say it now. New group content is going to be more like EC and star fortresses. Something new maybe, but not much like an operation.

Only new subscribers got the extra 500cc. Basicly only people who weren't allready subscribers were eligable for that reward.
That's incorrect. You only had to have the promotion in your launcher. I was already subbed and got it.

I made a post a while back expressing pretty much the same. When I play republic, other than maybe the smuggler, I'm playing very much a principled anti nazi (sith empire) pro freedom character. From their standpoint the sith are pure evil, just about as abhorrent as one can be. Bent on domination and subjugation of the galaxy. So now that their leader wants to kill everyone, my characters are supposed to team up with the sith, who enslave worlds, experiment and kill aliens at a whim, and would still resume their quest of galactic domination after their emperor was eliminated? Hard for me to rationalize that.
Of course my imp characters have a whole other outlook, and its much easier.

The same thing they did almost two years ago when I was asking the same and sitting on barren pot5.: Nothing. They at least had the sale on transfers. If you are still on a barren server, bite the bullet and transfer.

You have no idea what their player base is, what type of player it consists of whether pvp, pve, or RP etc. Like others, you just assume it is filled with people that match you interest. And no, the majority is not just people that play for just "story", there are many different types of players in this game, for many different reasons.
Umm, its based on their target audience. Words from the game makers own mouth, and the countless ragequit threads from traditional mmo players. I have little doubt what is left enjoying kotfe and the vanilla game are a majority rpg, story loving, SW fan players. Of course there are those, like me who like group content as well and are relatively (2yrs) new to the game and thus aren't so tired of the group stuff yet. It's good news if I'm mistaken, but I doubt it. If you are looking for new traditional mmo content, why would you look here when they have made it quite clear thier focus?
Edit: You know as well as I do, Mr."majority is not just people that play for story". Take your own medicine, Freud.

It was a copy with small variations such as in voiceover, conversations choices, cinematics. But a copy of WoW 2008 , released in 2012. Like Wildstar emulating vanilla/tbc . Both ended appealing to niche audiences.
What Blizzard understood is that wow needs to regularly evolve, and they are steps ahead of Bioware. Legion undertakes a re-melting of many wow features, including classes. Engine is gradually updated.
For a long time I though swtor did leveling better , but it was false, since quests variation is almost nonexistent compared to what you see in wow.
Things I'm afraid we are unlikely to see in swtor, also because it seems the budget allocated for development is very tiny here.
In mechanics yes, but in content? Far from it. From the beginning this game set itself apart with the depth of story, and that's largely its playerbase.
-
Swtor would just have less story players and more raiding players. WOW is boring to level, while a huge chunk of swtor players are altoholics and enjoy the story. I think this game has tried to present an alternative to WOW, rather than a copy.

Who said anything about "Season 2"?
Where has it been confirmed by the developers that such a thing will happen?
Yes, they have repeatedly talked about season two. Try the live streams.

This is brand new information!!;!!

I like getting level appropriate rewards and XP even after I've over leveled the content. Makes leveling much faster.

I stopped posting so much because my job changed and I don't have as much free time on here.when I'm off work, I play the game.

How does bolstering work? If I get a level 20 character into a Warzone without the two relics will I be bolstered the same way as another level 20 characters with all gear slots filled? I'm under the impression that the second character gets more bolster, but I'm not sure.
Full bolster with all slots full. Your first pvp mission gives you relics and all for that.

I played Tank. There was 4v4 and we ended up losing, and the healer blamed me for not Guard-swapping (whatever that is). I don't like PvP but I had to do it to recruit M1-4X. Now that I have him, I won't venture to PvP again.
You could take it as an opportunity to learn. As someone new to pvp, there is a lot to learn. It's unfortunate some are aholes, but I find the same when I'm doing ops and fps. Just ignore the aholes and don't let them dictate what you play.

Have you deleted your cache and cookies?

Yep, I wont be doing legendary. Even if I could get a group to do all the hms, it all just ist worth the trouble for me. The event is fine. I will probably get all but legendary just playing like I usually do, we'll see.
-
I agree, but what can you do? They are set on keeping the story easy, and most seem to agree with that. I pvp for challenge. There is also HM flashpoints, ops, star fortress heroic, and the ec.

208, all modded up, with Bowdaar at 26. No difficulty until the last part. 2 groups with elite knight in both. Slammed. If I last 20 seconds I feel fortunate. I wish I could pull just one group at a time but 2 knights in heroic just too tough for me. I'm a MM Sniper btw.
I'm a solo player, no in game friends and I don't chat. As long as losing companions doesn't effect Chapter 10 and beyond I guess it's all good. It was cool to land in jail early on..
Have you tried cc'ing one of them? I wouldn't give up, you can improve your gear and comp level too. Heroic SF is meant to be a real challenge solo. Check out YouTube. Gl.

Because you think the perks are worth it. If not, then you shouldn't. Maybe I'm confused on the email. Purchase game time and get expansions to date has been a thing since kotfe...
-
Wouldn't this be a naming and shaming thread?
Idk, everyone gets on my nerves at some point, but ill never forget tux encouraging me and others to keep at pvp and give I a good try. I went from solo player to pvping religiously in two weeks... Well pvping a lot and thoroughly enjoying it..

And I thought this thread was about op companions lol. We also had Darth Marr taken from us. *grabs pitchfork*

I enjoy having 12x++ xp by only doing class story, heroics, and war zones. Some are doing class/planetary story and getting 12x essentially. You can't overlevel xp rewards anymore. It doesn't get much easier to level than it already is imo.
-
You can buy them on the gtn as well as fleet vendors. Better deal on the gtn though.
-
I'd just assume have it all in one go, which we do have the option of doing by waiting. Having a number of alts, its better to just take each one through a big chunk rather that 1 Ch per month.

I've noticed that too. I figured it must be subs who used a link in the past and the 600 is only for new subs. Ask some of those that just give you 100 cc if they've used a referral link before.
