Amodin Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 (edited) I for one, am SO TIRED of just seeing the loading window just before the character selection screen, and nothing else. Today has been the worst of the worst in terms of trying to play. All I see is Vaylin and Senya squaring off, motionless, on a flaming platform. Maybe that is all that the game has been reduced to? The flaming platform? Did I not get this memo or something? Edited February 15, 2017 by Amodin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallandaeus Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Never gonna happen with this dev team but +1 anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edyn Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 (edited) I hate it, too, especially when it happens several times in a row when I'm logging in. Unfortunately, this bug, like many others, are very low in priority to fixing the game's real problems. Problems such as how group member icons displayed on the minimap, AoE telegraph appearance that everyone had real issues with, and most importantly, fixing the complicated and confusing token-based gearing system.

x_Boots_x Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Funny, I was just thinking about this today, how many stupid loading screens and clicks it takes just to start this game, its reminiscent of games a decade ago. It does fit with the frustrate the player model that they seem to employ from day one of this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craggy Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 Funny, I was just thinking about this today, how many stupid loading screens and clicks it takes just to start this game, its reminiscent of games a decade ago. It does fit with the frustrate the player model that they seem to employ from day one of this game. I still find the most exciting and random issue the loading to a space station, to run down a corridor, and load from a lift, into the station itself, to run across the station, to get into a shuttle, to a load screen, to get to a planet. Given how often my game can crash on loading screens, this truly is the most exciting RNG aspect of the game! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amodin Posted March 20, 2017 Author Share Posted March 20, 2017 FOUR TIMES and counting this afternoon just to try and play this Mickey Mouse knock-off. Please fix this horrid trash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given how often my game can crash on loading screens, this truly is the most exciting RNG aspect of the game! I find the most insulting part of it when you get to the shuttle from the station to the planet... and that shuttle has an option to go to your ship. Just to remind you that you have to run all the way to the pesky shuttle, but there apparently is shuttle service to your ship. Also, on the list of annoyances, especially when playing the Trooper story line which has a ton of this, the likes of "Travel to Coruscant" quest steps. If I quick travel to Coruscant using the legacy travel, it doesn't advance the quest. Nope, I've got to get into my ship, fly to Coruscant from another location, just so it can tell me to talk to a person on Coruscant. There's nothing to do in the ship, no cut scene, but you have to take your ship. Edited March 20, 2017 by Battilea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDaMoZ Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 (edited) I understand the frustration, however if you don't list any information about your pc build (CPU, GPU, RAM manufacturer etc.), operating system and in game graphic settings they'd be having to find a digital needle in a very big digital haystack. You can't expect people to fix a problem if they have neither proof nor leads to where it could be. And keep in mind that the actual developers don't visit the forums often, this is mostly done by support crew and community managers. They're just messengers so try to keep a friendly tone (explain your frustration, don't smear it on the walls like a caveman would) if you even want to have a chance that your message is conveyed to the dev team. Also the general forums might not be the best place to address bugs or technical issues unless it's an issue for everyone like cheaters in pvp. Try reposting this in the Bug Reports section with a little more information about your system and settings. And for the record, the launcher is working fine for me since the latest patch. I had some infinite loading bars a few months back, but i was able to work around them with a pc reboot back then. Running an i5-3470 on an Asus P8Z77-V LK board, 2x 8gb Kingston HyperX Fury Black DDR3 and a AMD SAPPHIRE NITRO Radeon R9 380 4G D5. On Windows 7 ultimate and all in game settings set to high.

jimmorrisson Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 (edited) I have not had any issues with the launcher. Furthermore I prefer the TOR launcher over WoW and STO's ARC bloatware launchers.

Nightblazer Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Also while I can see why it would be frustrating but i really don't think asking in that time will really get anything done either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With all the legitimate complaints about bugs and problems with this game, it is extremely annoying to read ignorant and clueless threads like this. You cannot run this game on a DSL connection. You will have a bad time.If you can't run this game on high settings, you will have a bad time.If you don't have a SSD, you will get long, long loading screens, and thus, a bad time.If you don't know wt.f i'm talking about, you will have a bad time. Go buy a console because you are not PC Master Race material. Edited March 21, 2017 by Rion_Starkiller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, how I wish this were true, it would feed your ignorance to the point of stupidity... oh wait, that already reared it's ugly head by your assumption of something you know nothing about at all. I'm done with this. When they can fix this problem, maybe I will fix my credit card tied to the subscription. This was never an issue until this last garbage expansion. Now, along with the story-line, the launcher is just utter trash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foambreaker Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 I had a lot of trouble with this when I was stuck in a hotel on slow wireless. I never have trouble with it on my cable connection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
