  1. We do not know the effect of a 5 level hike on endgame... if opps gear is being replaced by anything easier to get than forming a large group then old endgame becomes uesless... and for people that have not done it that is a huge blow. Even if it is still in place... doing a level 50 opp at 55 is not going to have the same feeling of acomplishment.
  2. Again, they are normal... but don't normally happen this quickly. And I guarentee you that a huge portion of people will not be doing level 50 ops... and it will be very hard to find a group that wants to if the rewards are not scaled. The issue for me, and others, is how quickly this came... even if it comes out in december that is what, a year and a month after launch that endgame is close to invalidated?
  3. Yes, but at no point was it made clear that if you aren't leveling quickly you miss out on endgame because they are going to invalidate it every year.. . I know in WOW it took a long time for people to be running MC... and for those that arrived to the party late, it was a step toward BWL... but it was not for quite a while that a level cap made it useless.
  4. Before end of year = level cap hike in a year, or less, or just over a year after launch... That is a much quicker pace than I want, and for people who want endgame, and have not experienced it much would think the same way. Granted, no one can speak for an entire group of players... but the point is valid for at lest some. No point estimating statistics as 84.5% of statistics are made up on the spot.
  5. In the event that th rewards scale, and the old opps serve as entry level gear to the new ones... then the point i made is less valid... allthough the point of casual players wanting to expierence endgame and not go b back to leveling on an annual basis stands. The situation I am seeing is that every year it is a new 5 levels and oldl endgame that many didn't get to do as much as they wanted to is obsolete. The fun that comes with long term teams, pvp competition... you just aren't going to find that while leveling up.
  6. The point stands... it is hard enough to get a group of four together, much less an opps group.... much less an opps group that knows what they are doing so you can complete it on a harder difficulty. People are not going to be running opperations to level.. it is hard enough to get a group for a 4 man flashpoint, or heroic... the trouble needed to get an opps group when the rewards aren't as good as outside of it will be impossible or near it. Old 4 man content (outside of hms that people probably won't bother with) will become levveling content yes... but opperations and old PVP gear will be useless. Plenty of players were hoping the level cap would only go up wth an expansion... and that the expansion wouldn't come out for over a year. Raiseing the level cap this soon is a huge blow for people who wanted to have fun at level 50, where there fun will not hae the rewards if they do someone find a group of people to do opps with.
  7. oops... post edited... serves me right for typing on 3 windows at once.
  8. Yes it does... getting a 40 man group together is hard enough at endgame when it is the top level... getting that for a level up thing is near impossible. People aren't going to cordinate that for a level up game. One of the biggest problems this game has is group quests are hard to get going... now 20 man level up stuff? is not happening. That arguement would be valid when a 2nd opp that is designed for people with gear from the 1st comes out... old gear is no longer the best but it is a step toward it... old raids are pretty much completly skipped. If
  9. It all depends on what those 5 levels does for endgame. If it invalidates everything where people who were enjoying it/didn’t yet get to experience it yet then it can be game breaking for people who were slowly working toward it and don't want to be going back to leveling on a yearly basis. If the old endgame stays useful, and people are still doing it and level 50 epics aren't replaced by level 51 greens... then yes it wont make a difference. If old endgame becomes useless then it will make a HUGE difference for peoplw who don't want to go back to leveling on a yearly basis. It all depends on what part of the game you like... If you are only playing for story or the level up game then you will love this... if you want endgame then a level cap increase is a major blow to your enjoyment.
  10. Possibly... maybe a free to play with pay for content tranistion? Not what I want to see at all...
  11. Agreed silence is not confirmation... but at the same time the silence is defiantly fueling speculation. If it is free they have NOTHING to lose by coming out and saying "This is a patch and will be free, the document is not real (or as the case might be, the business plan in the document is not the model we will be using." If it isn't free... then by keeping silent they may keep some subscribers who would quit if it was formally announced now... I know it is speculation... but if it is free content I don't see why they don't come out and say so.
  12. There is evidence this is real... but I am going to wait until I hear an offical comment from bioware to panic... with that said if it was free I suspect they would have rushed in and said something by now...
  13. What is the purpose of the forum other than to discuss what you want and don't want? Yes there are some troll posts... Talking ab out the direction of the game, even if it is saying "I am not sure this game is for me" is valid... yes there are some posts that go to far thinking there sub is all to important and the game needs to be turned into ___________ or it will suck... but there is plenty of intellegent discussion going on Good... but in the mean time people can't play the charecters they want to because they choose the wrong server... Roll and alt? If you prefer the level up game that is great... but if you got your main to 50 wanting to play engame this is not a solution at all. Now the level cap could invalidate all endgame... and for people who haen't done much/any of it this can be game breaking. The title says "Game breaker for me"... he prefers what he is doing right now to going back to leveling. Opinons vary but to be implying that this isn't gamebreaking and shouldn't be for anyone isn't a fair statement IMO.
  14. If you like endgame, and want to spend time progressing in it and instead will be going back to leveling every year... it is a blow to your enjoyment... granted if you prefer the level up game then you will have the opposite opinion. There are some valid points for some players listed... people will complain about things they don't like and when they are paying customers why shouldn't they?
  15. I would play it for the story... something to do for a short time... But as someone who is slow to level.... I am not happy with endgame content being voided so quickly. Levveling up, while made fun by the story... does not compre with the fun that comes with finding a long term team and taking on raids, hard modes, (if they were really made hard enough) etc I am wondering if htis is going to be the habbit... a level cap hike every year keeping me from seeing much if any endgame. Would like to know what the long term play here is... If the game isn't for me I would like to know. (If you like it keep playing, different playstyle preferences should not automatically make either of us a troll) .
