Deewe Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 (edited) By and large, mmo players are impossible to please, so don't try. Just keep your head on straight, your chin up, and remember - when herding cats, taking the fewest scratches is more important than getting all the cats where you want them. Kinda disagree with that. Been playing MMO for too long to know most people have good expectations and are more than willing to accept issues provided you treat them honestly. Does not mean a few rotten apples aren't there still there's quite a gap between the former and the latter. Now speaking specifically of SWTOR the main issue is the game has been riddled with uneven polish and bugs or features that should have been fixed years ago. Let me parse some examples here: Weapons, of more specifically sabers that get stuck out even if you aren't in combat.Floating corpsesCompanions that doesn't stay spawnedImpossibility to re-arrange companions skill in their quickslot bar nor put them in your bars.Key bindings that doesn't transfer to new toonsReporting gold farmers not putting them on ignore and not getting rid of them eitherFriend lists aren't shared between altsHalf working search on the GTNPoor Crafting UITedious mods managingLack of chat bubblesBoxed shadows during cut scenesDraw distance limited to like 90 feet Clipping gear especially head pieces and flapsRemoving the useless orbital stations but for a couple of story missions Most of these could easily be fixed and yet 2.5 years after launch we are still stuck with them.

Blind-Defender Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 (edited) Does this mean Eric is toast? LOL no. He not one with the Force yet like Allison and Joveth are. He's still community manager but I think this position opened up since Amber apparently received a promotion.

DOHboy Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 welcome, Always wondered if working for a game company would confirm it as being as awesome as it sounds, or shatter my beliefs with a healthy dose of reality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jozimmie Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 (edited) Hi Hillary, glad to have you on board for SWTOR If I may ask one thing of you Hillary is please please feed us bits of info as you find them out. Tait is like Ari Fleisher at a press conference. He can talk to the community for 2 hours and not answer a question legitimately. Please don't be another give-us-the-run-around-bureaucrat. Work for the community and we will love you for it! Edited June 24, 2014 by jozimmie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EranofArcadia Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 (edited) Something must be wrong - there are FAR too few negative posts in this thread riddled with spelling and logic errors, or making use of truly horrific analogies. Eh. Give it a day or two. Edited June 24, 2014 by EranofArcadia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

howieloader Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 (edited) Lol why is it most women who play MMO's lean heavily towards playing healers? Melee2hard!!!!1 Edited June 24, 2014 by howieloader Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kantaso Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 Lol why is it most women who play MMO's lean heavily towards playing healers? Because they are caring, loving, motherly and because man healers on those skimpy outfits are just WRONG!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordArtemis Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 Greetings everyone! My name is Hillary Nicole, but some of you may know me as “Pokket.” I recently joined the Bioware Austin team as their new Community Coordinator. My role will be to help maintain relationships with fan sites, streamers, guilds, and any other aspect of the SWTOR community. To give a little history on myself, I’ve been gaming since I was a wee little child. My dad and uncle got me into online gaming when I was about 12, with Ultima Online (thanks, dad! XD). I’ve played nearly every AAA title since then and have enjoyed both PvP and raiding across many games. I’ve streamed, done youtube videos, and attended several video game conventions. I guess it is easy to tell gaming is a passion of mine… I look forward to sharing my passion for games with you all, and am glad to be given this opportunity here at Bioware. Don’t hesitate to say hi, I promise I am friendly! ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ Cheers, Hillary “Pokket” Nicole I offer both congratulations and condolences Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andryah Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 Enjoy yourself and coordinate some community around us. More like herding cats IMO.... but I am very interested to see how she handles the kitten farm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Transcendent Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 Don’t hesitate to say hi, I promise I am friendly! ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ Hi! Don't forget to abuse your new force powers to get people to open doors for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andryah Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 (edited) Because they are caring, loving, motherly and because man healers on those skimpy outfits are just WRONG!!!!! I was more thinking ----> (stereotypically only) because men are messy creatures and women are familiar with cleaning up behind men and restoring harmony over top of chaos. That macho tank guy will go and impale himself over and over again on a Boss...and then wait for the healer to come over and clean them up and fix the boo boos. A male healer will just toss them an aid kit and tell them to "walk it off". Edited June 24, 2014 by Andryah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
