Thanks for the letter Keith. I'm looking forward to seeing what comes along next year, and I hope you, and everyone else over at Broadsword working on Swtor, have a wonderful holiday season and enjoy a nice break.

I had the issue too, and was able to pick it after completing the entire 7.4 storyline.

I was also delighted to see this and am really hoping that changes to hats/hoods so hair remains visible is another improvement that the devs are adding to the game.

Thank you Jackie! This is very appreciated news.

I'm torn on this, because I do like getting the emails as a reminder when I'm out doing quests as it's a nice reminder to go check the GTN, but getting a bunch all around the same time is annoying. Personally, my preference would be for them to automatically delete themselves after claiming the credits from the GTN.

I was speaking specifically about how you'd get Dark Spores after the end of Season 5. And, if I didn't hear that anywhere official (or at all), my assumption would have been based on how we get the rep tokens for the previous seasons. During the season, if you used that season's companion, you had a higher likelihood of getting the rep tokens, once the season ended, the only way to get them would be if you had that season's companion active, as the comment you linked says. Since, with Season 5 the drop rate increases when you play without a companion, it seems to me that it would follow that after the season ends the only way to get Dark Spores would be if you played without a companion.

I might've just imagined it, but I thought I heard/read somewhere that you'd get them after the season ends by playing without a companion. Mind you, I can't find anywhere where I would've got that information, so take it with a grain of salt.

Huh, that is weird. I get the page you screenshotted when clicking on the "Character Transfer FAQ" link, but just a popup when clicking the guidelines link. And I'm even less inclined to believe that is has any relevance if the page can't be found by some players and takes a fair amount of searching to find for those who are able to see it.

I was able to find the information on this page, as a pop up when clicking the "Additional guidelines apply" link. Though, since all of this information is from a page that was created in 2012, I'm not inclined to believe that its still necessary to wait for a server to be open 90 days before transfers are allowed. And certainly, if that was the plan all along, I think Keith/Jackie would have mentioned it in the post announcing Shae Vizla rather than saying it would be based on a status review of the server.

It was also missing for me when I ran the flashpoint the other day.

I mean, if Jadus made a return so my agent could finally kill him, I wouldn't complain. But unless I get to kill him, I don't want him back.

I didn't get a specific saboteur option on my Agent who's been working for thr Republic since forever, but I was able to come to an agreement with the SIS agents that didn't involve us fighting. Instead we all happily agreed to go our own way and pretend we never saw one another. Which, honestly is probably how my agent would have played things anyway. I'll wait to run my other Pub aligned Imps through until after this gets fixed, because they'd be all about getting Jonas to deal with the issue.

Broadsword took over the game from Bioware, but it's still under EA.

+1 This is a fantastic idea, I'd love to see it implemented, particularly with Nadia and Risha, as mentioned earlier, and also with Theron.

Admittedly, I don't do much of the "mmo" part of SWTOR, but if I did, I would much prefer the newbie experience on a server with established and well geared characters than on one where players were forced to start from scratch. Presumably, it would be easier to run ops if the other players in my group had their properly geared characters and wouldn't be nearly as frustrated if I wasn't able to pull my own weight because I was still learning, because they could make up that difference. The game is over a decade old, if other players being well geared and rich in the game is a turn off for new players, I don't know what to say. It seems like an incredibly silly reason to not give the game a chance or to quit, in my opinion. Alternatively, a long term player being told they need to choose between their years of time spent in the game vs playing somewhere with less lag due to a server being closer to them is something I can definitely see as frustrating and a turn off for old players in the APAC region.
