I am NOT uninstalling then waiting several hours to REinstall the game. YOU will fix this problem NOT us. YOU screwed up. why? you people NEVER fully and thoroughly TEST anything. This is all YOUR fault so YOU need to fix it ASAP. Remove this stupid so-called update so we can play. Its coming up for me to renew my sub. If this keeps up I will NOT renew it and you've not only lost a good customer, but also your precious money from me. This is intolerable and uncalled for. I remember one patch or update a year or so ago. In order just to log on, I had to remove that damn bitraider file everytime before logging on. Now this happens. If I sound angry and annoyed, well too bad, because I and many others are. Deal with it. This is what happens when you mess things up. FIX IT.

I found my own solution to this stupid bitraider program or w/e it is. Before I even load the game I open my program files then delete the bitraider folder. Then I load the game and play it as I had before all this patch crap happened. But beware if you try it. The deletion of the bitraider folder is not permanent. If you logoff the game then plan to return again, be sure you open your program files first again then delete the bitraider folder. I have to do that everytime but its worth it to play again. Until EA does THEIR job and fix things, then I guess WE have to solve things ourselves. Damn shame too.

If you have the streaming of SWTOR as I do, then I have a question. Is that Bitraider program REALLY necessary to play the game? I have read many complaints about it.

ok lets try this. Since it IS this new patch that is not working right, how can I remove it from my game? I don't think I really need it. That bad file I mentioned before can be deleted, but everytime I load the game, its back again. An effort in futility. Just as I feel writing here is the same thing. BAH!!

ok I have tried whatever I can to get the game to play again. NO LUCK at all. I even uninstalled and reinstalled the game again, which I should NOT have to do IF they used a non corrupted patch which is what is seems there is now. So I guess I can't play this anymore. I'll miss it. Have fun those of you who still CAN play it. I hope my guild friends aren't having the problems I am. If this can't be fixed or remedied, then I will not spend anymore money on it. Hey EA....FIX this patch problem. Again I ask if anyone else has this problem too and keep in mind my game is on D drive not C drive.

this is the name as it appears when I double click on config. swtor_swtor_master.bitraid_bad.

My game is on D drive. I used a flashplayer to install and play the game. I tried deleting the files suggested for C, but changed it to D because that's where my game is. Until this patch, it worked fine. When I clicked on config there was a file that was bad so I deleted it and tried again. It still won't play. Is there something else I can do or are there any other solutions? I just renewed my sub and bought more cartel coins. Both done on Wednesday before this patch was released. Everything was fine then. I hate to think my money was wasted because this patch ruined the game for me. And why would they put a BAD file in the patch to begin with? They need to test things first.

Sorry I meant to say this new patch not maintenance. the 6.0.1 I believe it is.

Idk what you did to the game but as of now I can't get on it. I have tried 4 times and still it doesn't play. The game loads fine but when I click PLAY, nothing happens. Have others reported similar problems? There may be a problem with this new maintenance that you added today. Please help us. I really enjoy this game and I want to continue playing it.

I am a 61 year old man and I thoroughly enjoy Star Wars. I never cared much for George Lucas but he did create an awesome galaxy/universe far, far away. I have played several Star Wars games and still do on Steam. Dark Forces 2, Mysteries of the Sith, Jedi Outcast and Jedi Academy, (of which I am a member of a clan on). I still enjoy playing those games. I have read many of the Star Wars novels, the last series I read was Legacy of the Jedi I think that was called. When the very first Star Wars movie hit theaters back in 1977, I was 20 years old and I instantly loved it. Now I hear and have read RUMORS that SWTOR MAYBE and I stress MAYBE on its way out. I certainly hope not. I love this game in my spare time. I began playing last summer in June 2017 as a F2P player. Then a couple months later I became a subscriber and have been since. I wish I had started back in 2012 when it was first released but I was involved in another MMORG at that time. It has been online for 9 years now. In that time, IMO, they have changed the game for the worse. the mian reason is they added cheats to make it more of a challenge for all the crybabies who said it was too easy. UGH!!!!. So last year I decided to quit it. Oh I had many friends on it that I miss, but I don't miss the game itself. Dare I say the name of that game? Sure why not? I'm sure some of you may know of it. It was/is called Wizard 101. K 'nuff about that junk. I then decided to play this game. I had heard of it and wanted to give it a shot. Well here I am having a blast enjoying a great game that I HOPE stays around a long time. Those of you who have helped me before to solve certain problems and play the game, to all of you I say MANY thanks. I'm sure I'll run into things that need a helping hand. I still haven't tried crafting yet, but eventually I might. In that other game I learned to craft pretty well but the way its done is a bit different. I never cared for PVP simply because the people who played that were arrogant, belligerent, obnoxious and thought they knew it all. Just spoiled kids really, so I stayed away from them. I enjoyed playing PVE way more. Doing quests/missions, leveling up, saving money to buy what my characters needed, etc. As for the people on THIS game, I haven't seen anyone act like those kids did. Maybe there are more adults on here like myself. Oh there are some who poke fun at others in chat and I have also from time to time, but its all in FUN. And that's what this game is to me, 100% FUN. Oh there have been a couple times when I got a bit frustrated because I couldn't beat an enemy the first couple of times. But I just slow down and think of a way then it works. And I can move on. I pride myself on 2 things: patience and understanding. At my age getting all angry and POed does me no good. I just stop and relax and think what I can do and do it. Anyway ty all very much for reading this and I hope this game continues a lot longer. As long as it does, I will be here. May the Force be with us all. Ok beam me up Scotty. lololol jk. :wea_03:

Many thanks for the suggestion. It was Alderaan that triggered it. Hope this also helps others that may need it. When you arrive at Alderaan Master Satele talks via holoterminal to you THEN it changes. Should be when you leave the Agressor but go figure. Obviously a bug of some kind.

I just finished the Oppressor mission and was then told to use my ship's holoterminal which I did. Then told to travel to Tython which I did also. BUT when I arrived I couldn't/can't see the Jedi Coincil as I know that's the next step. Seems I can't advance any further until that happens. Is this a bug or glitch? I am level 30 on my Jedi Sentinel character. Is there something I can type ingame I.e. /stuck when I am stuck or is this a game problem? Also has anyone else come across this and could not advance further in the story?

ok at the present time my command level is 22 so that puts me into tier 1. as for my combat skills, I like what I have and have done well with them up to this point. I also have the powers I need and they also have worked well for me. I will say this. I apologize for my earlier attitude about all this, but much of the game is still new to me and I'm learning as much as possible as I progress. I just got frustrated at not being able to move on in the storyline. I wished I had started playing this back when it first came out but I didn't. I was involved in another game that DOES use cheats to make the fights more of a challenge. Imo cheats and cheating and cheaters are scum. So when I finally gave it up, I found this game, (always liked Star Wars) and began playing it. I have played and still play a few older Star Wars games, and I am in a clan and am an admin on one of those. Still lots of FUN for me in my spare time. That's why I began playing this. I like Star Wars and enjoy having some fun with it. My fave Jedi is Qui-Gon Jinn. my fave Sith is Vader in the black outfit/costume. Just wanted to mention them. And as Sidious said in ROTS, all those who gain power are afraid to lose it. So I guess I need more power to continue ingame. lol

ok yea I have command crates but I didn't know exactly what to use them for or how. As for crafting, I have never tried it so I am lost there. The gear I have currently is the Outlander drops I get from enemy fights. That SHOULD be good enough or so I believed. Apparently they aren't. I have only played this game since June of '17 and I'm still learning what I can from my own experience and from reading posts online from various websites including this one. And I just recently joined a guild in this game. They have also tried helping me with advice. As for that fight? no I haven't quit it at all. I'll leave my character there for now and work on my other lower ones in the meantime. At least until I learn more how things work and apply them to him. ty all.

ok his class is Guardian with the single saber. Senya's influence is almost max. I have tried stims and other things. My gear is 212. I have never used tokens before. I feel this is a cheat fight against US the paying public. I am done with it and will find a way to remove this story from my game. I have other characters that need missions done anyway. I can't keep doing this and NOT moving on in the storyline. My patience with this has ended. I appreciate the offer to help but Idk how we both can be in there. Its not like a flashpoint mission. I have tried Senya on damage, tank and heal several times with no luck. Yesterday I almost had it beat, then I died anyway. wish I could have a couple more companions with me for fights like this. 'Nuff said.
