JoshRollins Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 (edited) How many of you could not see yourself playing this game post-1.2 if no significant new content (such as new OPs, Flashpoints, and WZs), nor dungeon finder and dual spec, nor server mergers/transgers, are implemented until after the first expansion (roughly estimated at being released a year from now)? IE, is Dungeon Finder and Dual Spec make-or-break for you in the long run? Edited March 29, 2012 by JoshRollins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amantheil Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Arent dual spec and LFG coming with 1.3? SWTOR has said they're looking into both features (especially dual spec, they've been a little more vague about LFG I think), but they haven't said when they'll be available. They certainly haven't committed to having them available in patch 1.3. They haven't said a word about what will or will not be in 1.3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frostvein Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 The problem with LFG being server only is that people who don't play at prime time are still going to have trouble getting groups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where is the logic here? What about 1.3, 1.4, 1.5? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jokingly Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 I don't want a dungeon finder... so yea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkinnunzero Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 LFD that's as good as WoW's is very important to me. I'd like to run enough flashpoints to get each armor set while doing my story, hunting datacrons or leveling crafting, but without good LFD system it's either waiting a group or doing the fun stuff. Dual-spec would be important if I wanted to do flashpoints as a tank or healer, so that's a good thing to have if I get bored of DPS roles.

Sarfux Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 There are no dungeons in Star Wars. Sorry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkinnunzero Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 "Dungeon" and "raid" roll off the tongue much easier than "flashpoint" and "operation". BioWare should have picked easier words so that people would be naturally inclined to use SWTOR terms rather than WoW terms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildbloodX Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 LFG yes Duel Spec, NO. Duel Spec is what killed wow for me. I think we should be able to reroll the primary tree, but duel spec imo is one of the worst things. I like to be able to build a toon for a specific roll. In wow it was a bad idea and I think the same would be true for TOR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildbloodX Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 (edited) I don't know, some of those places look like a futuristic dungeon, and any area using the ruins tile set looks very much like a dungeon.

Tatermitts Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 It's just my opinion, but it seems to be an industry standard to have some sort of Looking for Group functionality. I don't play a peak hours and I feel like I have really missed out on the group content of this MMO. Having a looking for group, that is at least my server, that can be used while doing other solo activities would increase my enjoyment by a ton. Only being able to pull possible companions from guild and surrounding area just aren't enough unless you're on during those peak times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't understand why dual spec is something that can kill anything. So long as you can respec at all in the game, dual spec is just a less annoying way to do that. It is strange when you have something like a dps that becomes a healer, but it was just a really useful tool in WOW when it came to PvP vs. PvE as a priest. It was a pain to have to go to the capital city every time I wanted to switch roles slightly to accommodate the different activities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthDrachonus Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 I've NEVER played World of Warcraft. Never will. I originally began playing the original Everquest back in 99. Not at all interested in the cartoonish garbage that Blizzard put out. This isn't World of Warcraft, and it never will be. Flashpoints and Operations are inherent to Star Wars: The Old Republic. That's their name, that's what they should be called. Comparing this game to a piece of trash like WoW, is simply asinine. I'll be playing post 1.2. I'm excited for the changes coming. I'd love to see some of Everquest's features implemented into ToR. Alternate Advancement points, the one guild all factions option. Faction players being able to help one another in quests (At a reasonable amount of risk of course). Good stuff right there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LMAO at this post lol I'm still LMAO 90% of SWTOR is copied from WoW and given a different name LMAO And SWTOR still has about 40%-60% less features than WoW, which looks amazing on my PC with all it's colors. Unlike SWTOR that like everything else, half-aszed the colors in the game like they were working with 8 bit color. Bioware should call Blizzard and offer them a percentage of this joke so they can step i and save it for them. GG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
