JediElf Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Kinda feels like I'm the only one, that is. Anyone else get a big smile on their face when they saw the vid? Is anyone else excited for all the changes, and all the new customizations? Is it just me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spacerobot Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 I'm super excited too. It looks like there is a lot of great stuff coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is anyone else excited for all the changes, and all the new customizations? Is it just me? What new customizations because I didnt really see anything new. Just existing stuff which will be allowed under certain circumstances and be mostly useless fluff. Legacy system= Now you can be a Chiss Bounty Hunter and level him up through all the same content only you can use Force lightning once every 20 minutes! wow so cool!

Stouver Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Looks good. I do hope that is isn't released before it's ready but on the flipside if it takes too long that wouldn't be good for the game either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panzerbase Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Yeah I'm so excited over a patch used to pump up population levels before the next earnings report, oh yeah.... The game needs help now and certainly many of these changes can be released prior to the 1.2 god release, but yeah they have to trick the investors into thinking the game is fine.

JediElf Posted March 5, 2012 Author Share Posted March 5, 2012 So much negativity...it's kinda sad really. Come on, some of you must at least like the game a little? So far it seems like...well..about four of us like the patch. I'm one sad little Jawa now...why do people play a game that they don't like? I thought folks would be happy about patch 1.2.

Xanikk Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 What new customizations because I didnt really see anything new.

Legacy system= Now you can be a Chiss Bounty Hunter and level him up through all the same content only you can use Force lightning once every 20 minutes! wow so cool! Completely agree. I need real changes. Where is the innovation bioware claimed they produced when making this game? The legacy system so far is just a manifestation of standard amenities almost all MMO's have. Packaging a turd in nice shiny wrapping paper doesn't change the fact it's a turd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neoscrilla Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 I am happy about 1.2. However, I am not excited that there are still countless launch bugs that have been put on the back burner so that they can get this 1.2 out before many people just give up.

DarthKeredias Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 I just creamed my pants while watching the trailer, and then I jumped up and down and screamed like a 5 year old that just got a Nintendo 64 for Christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legacy system= Now you can be a Chiss Bounty Hunter and level him up through all the same content only you can use Force lightning once every 20 minutes! wow so cool! I see a Chiss BH every day, so I know I'm nitpicking but that's not one of the new options that will be available soon. I mean, I get that race means nothing to some people but on the other hand that's one of the things that keeps some people playing this genre (MMO's have some of the most diverse player bases around). I'm looking forward to these Legacy implementations and don't even really care about the new flashpoint and such, so yeah, I'll probably be seen as lame for liking a video game for what others see as trivial fluff but that's unavoidable no matter what game or form of entertainment we're talking about these days.

JediElf Posted March 5, 2012 Author Share Posted March 5, 2012 (edited) Also I'd like to add to my post... '[Panel Discussion] Roleplaying (4:30PM CST)" Thank you Bioware, for giving RP guilds and Roleplay in general it's own panel, and a long overdue voice in an MMO. Thank you. Back to the patch.... Look I've been playing MMOs for a really long time, I just try hard not let all that time jade me to the overall experience. There is just something about SW:TOR that makes me feel a sense of awe, and excitement, yes it's not a sandbox, or a very open world, but it's the story, and the Star Wars, that make me just love this game to bits. I hope 1.2 isn't too far away. ^_^ Edited March 5, 2012 by JediElf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
copasetic Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 (edited) SWToR has already failed considering the majority of the stuff in 1.2 should have been in the game at launch. I love how James Ohlen is saying that 1.2 is going to be the biggest patch in any MMO yet it looks to still fail so hard. - Legacy system is basically useless for endgame. Who cares about a few extra races when races don't mean anything anyway (no racial skills/perks/benefits)? Legacy abilities only usable in PvE while leveling so this is pointless. Mailbox in ship saves me about a minute of time. Target dummy in ship to test my DPS without a combat log is pointless as well. I guess I can look closely at the numbers and keep writing them down on a piece of paper/put in an Excel spreadsheet? - Rated Warzones are going to be limited to two separate four man groups thus not allowing 8 man Operations (full guild/friends premade) to queue. This was the big nail in the coffin for me. - New Warzone will become stale in a couple days, especially if you already have Battlemaster gear. - New Operation will most likely too easy. It wouldn't surprise me if guilds started on Nightmare right away and cleared it in one night. - New Flashpoint is useless. Why run Flashpoints anymore when once you get in a raiding guild, you get all the gear/Biometric Alloy you need?

What amazes me is how so many posters can't seem to understand why so many long time players back from the beta would be disapointed with this outcome of the legacy system.

It's just that the people that enjoy the game are playing instead of hating on the game like the fanboys and haters here. No matter what you post, this game, and you will always get trolled.

Merex Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 It's a pretty amazing major patch that's for sure. They're answering a lot of the issues people have with the game. I'm curious about the omission of combat logs, dps meters, and dual specs in the trailer, though. I thought those were 1.2 features. A few of the most requested features at that.

No reason to be sad or anything. If you like it, play it. There are games that I have played in the past that others would have frowned on, but as long as I am enjoying it, it doesn't matter.

I'm curious about the omission of combat logs, dps meters, and dual specs in the trailer, though. I thought those were 1.2 features. A few of the most requested features at that. What issues are they really answering? Horrible legacy system TERRIBLE implementation of gear mod removal (can only remove mods off the NEW tier 2 gear) just plain terrible, no word to describe the laziness here Still have not mentions dual spec Another WZ? No details on class balance other than re-working classes No info on spaceship expansion No info on existing bugs for current content new operation with new tier gear renders old operations useless, we go from 2 to 1. Especially if I can't remove armoring mods from rakata gear I don't want it. 1 new WZ? So not sure how this will change all the game's problems... No engine enhancements no server mergers no cross server queues no server xfers no high res textures no guild ships no changes to the game world (horrible travel system on planets, single player feel to worlds) no fixes for Ilum (abandoning it instead) Really, this patch will not add much to the game and introduce a ton more issues.
