  1. I really dont get the light blue highlight around every skill on our skillbars now, please for the love of god revert it, it seriously hurts my eyes as its a stark contrast to the generally darker shading of the game. The old UI in this regard was working perfectly well.

     

    As for the character sheet, I dont think its a bad edition, the rest however is another story. Inventory, skills and utilities, caps lock everywhere.

  2. Not sure by the technical side, but lore wise, as with any race, there are always outliers to a civilisation. I would not even be that bothered if the Voss were restricted to certain classes if we must be thematical. Enough time has passed in game that I wouldn’t be surprised that the Emp/Rep's involvement on the planet pre- ilum has at least swayed some Voss, especially given that they were attacked in the last expac by Zakuul.

     

    I also highly disagree that they use different character models, I see plenty for BT 1 & 2s for both genders, just not 3 and 4.

  3. Just finished the Republic version, about to take a crack at the Imp side now. I must say I agree with the sentiment that this 'expac' seems rather short.

     

    To me, it feels as if the content we got leading up to the events of Onslaught were more fleshed out and numerous than what receieved for the expac itself. This just feels like Ossus to keep us going till the next batch. And its been what? Almost 3 to 4 years since the last expansion started? As much as I disliked the Fallen Empire stuff, it feels vastly larger and richer than what is shown here.

     

    Im not saying its a total disaster, just that its completely laking in what made Swtor, well...Swtor. Interactions are minimal, the story feels rushed and unpolished and the changes to gear and the like simply feel like an attempt to keep things fresh or current when really, its not.

     

    Onslaught for me is the true indication that the game is little more than an aferthough at this point, this expac promised to bring back Swtor to its origins and while it has gone to its roots of R vs. E, the magic of it seems to be totally lacking.

  4. Oh, so now you want to listen to feedback? Huh, well could have used that probably in all the time Swtor has been alive....7 years a bit too late. Seriously, its like the dev team has gone out of its way to alienate every single aspect of the player base (hec, event the RPers are reeling with the story choices over the past three years). All the content in Swtor is a repetitive grind-fest now which doesn't hold because we've been grinding the same content since the game's release. I just don't know how to put into words my confusion with the direction this game has taken, especially in the last three years. Your game is haemorrhaging subscribers and f2p players alike, WAKE UP and actually do something about the feedback you've been ignoring forever.

     

    Give something back to the pvpers and raiders, instead of punishing them. Give us more engaging stories rather than the silly fan fic that was the Zakuul storyline. ENGAGE with your players, make more events, keep in touch with people. Do not sit at your desk and ask for feedback, actively look through the damn threads and forums and take into account peoples ideas that have been floating around forever and then propose on how the game could improve. Jeez.

  5. Daily Ossus currency? Sure, but Master and Monumental crystals? Are you F***ing kidding me?! Minimum 2 crystals per decoration! If these crystals dropped like candy I wouldn't have an issue, but to have a currency that is tied into gear grinding also be the only way to purchase these decorations is just mind blowing. Was someone sniffing glue when they made this decision ??? The rating of these decorations are green, not even legendary! Hell, lock them behind a reputation gate and use ossus relics like the other decoration vendor has, not this BS, why change something that isn't broken in the flipping first place!
  6. Torian - Just....bland. His VO gets on my nerves too, not saying he delivers his lines badly, just that it doesn't appeal to me.

    Risha - I will admit I did warm to her after her story developed a bit further about her father and history, but there is something about her personality that is a bit much for me.

    Irresso - Love the guy but not as a romance option.

    Doc - His introduction really soured my stance on him, even as a male knight.

    Mako - Again really love her but not as a romance option.

  7. Places such as near World Boss locations (screw that droid boss) and heavily populated areas are always bound to create FPS issues, even if you have an extremely high end rig (supposedly swtor works best on a mediocre one). The game engine was not designed to withstand more than 30+ ppl in one location, that's why the game tanks when you have operation groups consisting of more than 8 people doing combat logs and animations.

     

    In all likeliness it could be a factor of a server side issue as well.

  8. As much as I am thankful for her to be back, I felt the interaction and return of her was incredibility short and badly written (for dark side at any rate). I wish I could agree with you that it was everything I could have asked for, I just felt it was lacklustre after this amount of time. I was hoping for something memorable like the return of Vette. Even Ashara seemed to have more closure than this interaction, despite the similarities in her return. This is of course personal opinion, and I am happy for those that actually really enjoyed the interaction. I am simply disappointed by my own expectations I suppose.
  9. I had an alert for her that was blinking and went to talk to her and there were questions you could ask her it normally says investigate: (What skills do you have, there were two other investigates and you can ask her all of them before you accept her)

     

    *face palm* Ive realized what ive done, I clicked on the damn thing that just instantly gives you her rather than doing via alters.....I thought that is what you used to activate her alert....*sigh* so I haven't been able to 'recruit', I just added her instantly without the dialogue n stuff....damn.

  10. Most people wanted the Chiss Jedi as she was different than the dark one so I think a lot of people, even the empire toons, were making light choices. Even my sniper was making light choices as I didn't want the dark one, I thought the Chiss was very unusual while the dark one was just another Zabrack.

     

    Chiss force sensitives are very rare which makes this companion unique.

     

     

    But you do get a recruitment mission from Theran, if you have done the chapters, and you actually get to talk to her and find out things about her. She is very unusual for a Jedi

     

     

    She is not part of the order. She is considered a rogue agent.

     

    Huh....Ive done all the chapters and she just appeared in my companion list without any alert or anything, is there something specific you need to do?

  11. Overall I would say its better story wise than KOTFE, it felt more grounded and centred as to what it was trying to achieve. Still it was a bit lack luster, but had some good moments. The ending was...meh, and now I really dont know how they are going to handle having our player character as the leader of Zakuul... On a plus note I will commend them for actually killing off characters however rather then 'oh ill escape at the last second' crud.

     

    My only gripe is that 'Kneel before the dragon of Zakuul' bull; just literally popped out of no where and once asked why our player character wasn't told before, mister bright eyes responds with 'I didnt want to give you false hope.'. Wow, well done Bioware, grade A writing there. And how the hec did we use it on Valk himself? Where did we learn that it could be used against him too? I mean....I didnt skip any of the cutscenes...am I just blind?

  12. Its was meh......but ive felt that way with every expansion since vanilla with perhaps the exception of Ziost (But I not sure that really is an expac?). I think overall it felt bland and really badly put together ( the animations, especially the facial ones...geez, so bad), it did have some good moments, but nothing to make up for the whole ordeal. I have to say Im not really interested in what comes next, but ill probably play it anyway. But only on one character.
