Petition to make the ewok not buy able by cc

No thanks

 

I want to see more earned items and less cm items

 

Something not as tedious as hk but takes me across the galaxy doing things, basically get me to leave fleet every once in a while

veyl

No. Go do some quests/raids and earn the furball. The community has already stood up against the Pay2Win bs with the Space pack bundles that hit the market awhile back. If you don't think a companion is pay2win... you're already mistaken since it's pretty well geared, way more then your current companion probably is.

To all those crying about the Legacy 40 requirement. As someone who has a high Legacy level and has had very little to show for it, kudos to BW for giving something special to the veterans that have been loyal to the game.

Igax

No thanks. We need LESS Cash Shop Items and more stuff you can only earn by playing the game. Just keep buying the cartel packs and enjoy gambling your money away!

 

Desolaytore

This. I don't know about you but I DO NOT feel like chucking CC at everything that comes out. I'd rather grind and earn stuff the old MMO way. More content and stuff like this please!

 

Nyaara

No, absolutely NO.

 

Earn your Legacy and earn the new companion. If not, you already got 7. More than enough when you can only summon one at once.

 

I just hope that BW keeps the new companion like the PTS.

Just because you don't have the Legacy doesn't mean it should be changed so you can grab it day one. Look at it this way, if you want it that bad it's something to aspire to and work towards. The fastest way to grab Legacy is to level alts, run plenty of missions and group content, and just play the game. Legacy comes pretty fast until ~40, then it is quite slow, but you don't need 50 for this guy.

 

Like I stated in your other thread, no, I enjoy being rewarded for my dedication to the game with small trinkets.

In no way should this make it into the Cartel Market. Yeah, it sucks for those 'newer' players, but for the rest of us who have been around since launch / pre-launch, who had legacy 50 5 months later and the only thing we could ' use' it for was a kiosk on our ship...it's about time they started adding stuff like this.

 

CC to get it, bad idea - hopefully this will be a continuing trend with legacy

zzoorrzz

I'm shocked that somebody brought this idea up. Instead of being happy there's something that is not on CM, people will ask for it? Are some of us compeltely brainwashed or what? Whoever supports this just gave EA an argument next time they create something they can just put it on the CM and say "hey, when we didn't put stuff on the CM some people didn't like it". I know that argument is not accurate and not exactly true. But it won't stop them from using it.

HoboWithAStick

Yeah exactly, I wouldn't mind if things went on the cartel market but guess what? My sub brings me almost no content as of the last 6 months.

Phorenzyk

I never ever thought I would see a petition for an item only available through gameplay to be purchasable via market

TrillOG

Agreed.

 

LordArtemis

I have to say I would not support this personally.

 

Only because we have had a plethora of content for the market, and I think it would be nice to have one item that is NOT attainable by the market released recently

 

pan_sObak

NO!

NO MORE CC!

 

it's an ingame legacy/reputation/devotion what means

do a job, got a reward

 

Cernow

No No and no.

 

At last Bioware puts something in the game that needs to be earned and can't just be purchased for cash on the Cartel Market.

 

Having a high Legacy level is mostly meaningless in this game, sol I applaud Bioware for putting something in the game that rewards players with a high Legacy level.

 

I just wish it was a Jawa not an Ewok, but oh well ...

 

bannsider

What an awful awful thread.

 

Too much content goes into the shop these days we need content to work towards not just unlock with a button push.

 

Im legacy level 28, I never have near a million credits, this gives a reason to play the game, to run dailies, to level an alt. Keep this content out of the cartel sho

 

 

Radzkie

They added something you have to earn? What a terrible idea for an MMO...Why would they want me to spend more time on the game?

Petition for people to earn their rewards

 

 

FlavioG

 

Are you completely out of your mind?

Instead of enhancing the game they keep throwing **** on us.... and players like you are happy

Keep going

 

Makillda

 

Not reading the rest of this thread but you're doing it wrong. I left the game back in December with my legacy at lv 39. I re-subbed the week after RotHC dropped and hit Legacy 50 last week. Do you want to know the quickest way to get legacy xp? LEVEL ALTS and do group content.

 

But, hey, if you want to kill boars for 1890 hours instead, have fun.

 

NO EWOK FOR CC

SilentKitty

love getting a new companion, this will be so much fun!

 

Also a nice touch with the high legacy requirement, finally something that I feel is really rewarding with getting all of those levels. Ha ha, can't wait to tease my husband because he will have to play a bit more to unlock her

gorstram

Finally, a reward for being a dedicated player since early access. A living legend deserves the right to purchase a worthy companion, and let the little guy run around with him so that other players can see what dedication to a game looks like. These are the kinds of rewards that are lacking right now. How cool would it be to go get a red/red dye from the VIP vendor that has a level 30 legacy requirement? Or a crew skill holostatue that has a level 25 legacy requirement. It's time that these long time legacies that people have been building actually mean something other than "Dude, you've wasted so much of your life." I know I have, but I'd like to have a little more to show for it other than type 2 diabetes.

 

 

LadyKulvax

 

I feel it should be left just as is, it means dedicated players get something truly for them, legacy level 40 and a million per character should be peanuts for anyone who's been playing since launch.

 

*Tips hat to fellow Living Legend status Founders*

 

 

i get it, guys and i see your point. perhaps the ewok really is just for those who have been here at the launch of the game. while i will still contend that a CC option should be added later on , i wont be pressing this matter since i got toons to leveling this weekend (actually the lvl 50 trash mob grind last held me back from achieving my lvl 27 jk goal for this weekend). i will bump this thread up on monday though

 

Ewok for CC

GoldenHornet

It's about time there was something rewarding those who've put in the time and effort to get a high legacy.

Obviously signed. They need to start making things where you actually have to spend time in the game to achieve., instead of catering to the people "who dont play this game a lot". Not everyone can blindly spend CC and I think its unfair. Edited by Ayelinna

I will have to respectfully disagree. I am a casual player (like a vast majority in the game) who has little time to "grind" for an "optional" companion. I fully endorse the use of the CM and have personally purchased almost $250 in Cartel Coins in the last 30 days for all of my new characters to unlock gear and legacy perks. I think Treek should be purchasable a multitude of ways INCLUDING Cartel Coins. Thanks ;)

Here's a thought: find something more productive or more sensible to put your money into. $250 in a month is just a stupid amount of money for a MMO. Not all of us like the CM and some of us would like something to show for the time we put into the game.

 

WoW made things too easy, too easy to obtain and there were next to no innovations and they're bleeding subs. I can already guarantee you I am personally out the day EQ Next goes live, and if Bioware makes everything purchaseable on the CM I'll probably go sooner than that.

You do know this kind of petition is kind of an exercise in futility, right? The ewok is nothing more than cosmetic fluff stuff, having it wont make the game easier/harder/give you an edge in the endgame, in other words perfect cash shop item.

 

And if you don't want to spend money you can always spend credits.

Here's a thought: I make a ton of money and spend it how I see fit. Even after a mortgage, 2 car payments, and all the bills between me and the wife, if I decide to blow $250 on a game, instead of fishing or drinking, that is my business.

 

Also, to the OP - According to the Rules of Conduct,

Petition posts are frowned on.

And while we're at it, would you like for them to put a set of Conqueror and Kell Dragon Gear on the CM for you to buy too? ****, might as well go ahead and put up some premade level 55 toons on the CM while we're doing that so that you can just buy the "End Game Bundle" and be done with it.

Hey there buddy, of course I understand what you're saying, But lets put it into perspective, you are going to get a NEW pack in a month or two with some awesome (usually) new gear and maybe even a new lore set. That's great (contraband legend here). But there is also the fact having a high legacy means nothing right now (Maybe one or two upgrades for being 50) <- Im not even this high. But the point stands there is no carrot to want to be that high.

 

This seemed to be a nice way of bw saying "we don't JUST want your money", I would have thought eric would have disliked writing in the other petition where most people seemed to be saying they weren't for it. But anyway looks like for now you've won, and can throw your money for it (hell I probably will with the current rate they charge cc or a million credits.

I know but I hope it will be considered in the future, can't blame someone for trying.

Some people have time, some have money, some have both. Why do you care who gets to see which pixels on their computer screen? It doesn't affect you in the slightest.

Not everything in the game should be handed to everyone, no matter how entitled you feel. If you don't want to put forth the effort for a completely OPTIONAL companion, then don't. But don't expect them to allow you to BUY what you don't want to work to obtain.

It makes me want to unsubscribe and find a different game to play.

While I can certainly understand your pov, and respect your opinion, for myself, and casuals like me, we would rather have cosmetic items now, and not at legacy lvl 50. Suppose someone, exactly like me (cause it happens to be me) removes all the toons on their account at legacy level 5, and starts over wanting just a Jedi Knight? Now, my legacy is only level 5, but that means I would never get an Ewok since all I want to play is Jedi Guardian.

 

I've experienced all of the classes, and advanced classed, and the only one that fits me best both for story, and for playstyle is the JK. But my JK will be 55 LONG before my lagacy would hit 50. The benefit of allowing Cartel Coins is "Choice". So few games allow you to play your way, on your terms. I have all of my legacy perks (that I use) unlocked, and did it using CC.

 

I would really enjoy having Treek on my team, but I will likely leave the game long before I ever got to Legacy 50. Fortunately, BioWare understands how many players are in my same boat, and lucky for us will be able to purchase using CC.

Bravo! It's not anyone's business how much you or I or anyone else spends on the Cartel Market. I want the companion to be available to unlock with cartel coins too. HK51 is. It makes sense financially for Bioware.

Then do it. That's how you send a message to BWEA. Be sure to tell them exactly why you are unsubbing.

 

"Then do it." so ignorant lol.

 

I said it makes me want to. I never said I am going to do it.

I've already bought everything I don't want to obtain, and they were happy to provide me with it. I have 12 different armor collections, all of the pack, all of the unlocks, the speeders, the weapons, the cosmetics, and the legacy perks purchasable for character and legacy wide. All paid for on a lvl 1 Jedi Knight before he did his first mission. If you don't want to pay for an optional companion, then feel free to go earn it. Personally, I subscribe to the Work smart, not hard philosophy.

Well, as long as Legacy 40 is a requirement I wouldn't care whether you could unlock her via credits or CC. Has it been confirmed that that's not the case? Otherwise the legacy requirement feels more like punishment opposed to reward.
