I feel for you having a draft. I am glad our service personel are volenteers no need for a draft.

I paid less for GW2 then I did for SWTOR. Digital Delux was 79.99 same a swtor. I bought the CE for swtor which with tax and delivery costed me 160 bucks. I don't plan to spend another cent for GW2. So pound for pound GW2 is a better deal even if SWTOR was free to download.

Dude they Broke Denova this week and if they need to patch 3 times to fix then i am all for it.

The campain level relics are nice to have. The Black hole comms are nice now that you can get 36 per week outside of Denova. Because the armor sets they have setup are backwards especially for Gunnery troopers. So we buy boots and gloves to take out the mods and enhancements and plug them in to our campain armor to get Best in Slot. Thats why i doit. The cash is nice perk too. I hope they add new dailys on Makeb. Ide also like to see a new level 50 only area on Tatooine for dailys... If we had more planets to do perhaps we could rotate around and not do every planets dailys every day so its not so boring.. Perhaps add in dynamic events in the daily areas to spice things up. Bosses that dont require a group to kill and take down and share in the spoils. Totally spontanious. Perhaps a Dev controlled epic BOSS that broadcasts to the whole server about its arival...

Items in green I feel would be bad. The others would also have to be added as free legacy wide unlocks

/shameless bump I want more opinions on this subject )

Dear Joveth Gonzalez, Is it possible to find out if the PTS server will be reactivated and remain active from here on out? So new patches could be tested. I would goto test server if I could clone my lvl 50 toons to the test server. I would also ask that the denova operation well heck any operation only allow 2 16 man operations or 4 8 man operations per instance. Last night (aside from the minefield bug in denova which i know you guys know about) There was over 100 people in the first instance of Denova (EC). There were times of 3 to 5 second freezing of everyone in the 16 man group. Also I want to know if a new instance is a vew virtual server or a completely separate computer/server. Is the creation of these instances dynamic or is it started by human beings?

10 to 20 million Fek that....

Just wait till F2p starts and you get a bunch of 10 year olds playing who couldnt care less...

Yes I can confirm the minefield is BROKEN on Canderous Ordo server

I think if there gonna go F2P the game should just be subscription free. Be more like Guild Wars 2. Just charge for expacks. I think this would force the devs and management to release more frequent content. This puts everyone on an even playing field. I am a subber Ide rather stay a subber but Bioware is not releasing $15.00x12 months worth of content each year. That equals 180 bucks a year per player thats roughly 4 xpacs a year at 40 bucks. So every 3 months we would have a xpac that we could make a decision of if we wanted to buy it. This leaves patches for bug fixes and such. Why split the player base in 2 and pit them against eachother. Just Be a sub game or a totally Buy to play game. None of this hybrid crap.....

What incentive is there to subscribe then? If i can purchase content and have it for ever and then pay nothing more to support the game? Everyone will go F2P and the game will die. They must have 2 years of content ready now to release if thats the case....

I could go all tin foil hat on you and say that they always intended to go F2P and needed an engine that would run on low end machines being direct x 9 and all. I dont know why with all the time this game took to make why they didnt just build there own engine. Or at least used a modular engine that could be upgraded as technology advanced...

I smell an ebay auction in the future...

The part that has me baffled is this Subscribers will continue to have unlimited access to The Old Republic, including new, more frequent content updates that Free-to-Play members will have to buy. My question is what specificly is this type of content? Lets say i switch to F2P and then Makeb releases. I understand that subbers pay nothing BUT... Will it cost F2Pers like 40 Bucks to get it like a typical xpac and they have it permenitly? Will it be 40 bucks worth of content? ( I remember Runes of Kunark for EQ1 costing like 20 bucks) Or will it cost them like 5 bucks for a weeks access to that content and they have to keep renewing that content on a weekly basis?

Ummm There is guards against this. You cant have that many alts on one account that is F2P and trust me there will only be one F2P account per MAC ADDRESS. This way father and son can play at same house father subbed and kid F2P or 2 F2P siblings at same house just 2 different computers. Lets just hope that kids who SHARE ONE computer but want different accounts dont try to play cause it wont work I hope...

Perhaps the account creation software will be changed to look at your computers MAC ADDRESS when creating it. So when you create it it will be unique. Cause now its tied to credit card number. Or perhaps they could use the same tech microsoft uses to setup a machine unique identifier when you activate windows. If you login from another computer it only gives you x amount of hours to play without updating your *HOME* Machine. If you try to make a new account after being banned from same mac address it will know and not let you...

As long as it was a free legacy perk for subscribers with 50% of the cool down...

I will stay for a time. I have a couple friends who are gonna check it out and since theres no monthly there it wont cost me anything more then the box/dvds

I know I have done searches under the misc section and only putting in mk-6 and then i can sort the level 6 augment kits by price. But that search wont work with any other variables like level ect...

You think you can play F2P and spend cartel coins once for access to Ranked warzones and have access forever? I highly doubt it Mabey you can buy a day or 3 days or a week or a months access at a time but not unlimited access thats for subscribers only...

I fear that you may be right. I have one question though is there any thing that EA could do PUBLICLY via youtube or some game magazine or what ever to reassure SWTOR fans that this will NOT be a cash cow ONLY. That they would give BIOWARE story tellers the authority on what goes into the game?

Well they do have all those servers to fill up LOL

And thats why the content has been so slow to release.
