DarthCasus Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 Please and thank you. Or fix the terrible map. Or the quest markers. Really, it's probably the most rage inducing thing designed in the game since the 'thrill of the hunt'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really, it's probably the most rage inducing thing designed in the game since the 'thrill of the hunt'. You already know they're never going to delete Iokath so why even ask such a silly question? Why not start out by asking for map improvements or quest marker improvements? They'd be more likely to take you seriously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm trying not to respond with levels of snark yet to be seen because I'm not trying to be mean to you. Constructive feedback hasn't lead to much at all concerning this game so I figure I'd make a step forward and just suggest they up and delete it. It's god awful and while I'd take improvements (though it's been more than 2 years since they introduced it), they'd save time by deleting it. They can take that(!) suggestion seriously.

Nightblazer Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 Your still asking or making a request for them to delete s whole planet. While I understand there are issues with the area, it's an unrealistic request. As the other poster said I can see changes made and would help if submitted in a very constructive way. While even then it's still no guarantee all or some of the suggestions will happen, it's still something that could happen. Them deleting a whole area won't.

Rolodome Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 Main thing I can think of that I believe would help immensely, is give daily quests a transporter like heroics have (as close to target location as possible without putting you in a zone of danger... one might say, a... DANGER ZONE!). Having to traverse a huge distance to get to one or two quests on a regular basis is frustrating and Iokath isn't the only area with this problem (Section X comes to mind as well).

Their track record with responding to or acting on constructive feedback is abysmal and Iokath is not worth the energy in the state its in. They've had feedback sitting around for 2 years.

Pirana Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 One planet I've completed once and never went back. I will run the Boss there if it's in the Conquest but that's about it. And to think I thought Corelia was bad with all of its dead ends, this planet takes the cake. The person who created this map must have been baked.

I understand but something like deleting a whole planet won't ever happen. I understand your issues with it, just realistic it would not happen. Changes or updates may not be high up on their list or maybe something in 6.0 may change, who knows. All I'm looking at is a realistic view that fixes or updates sure can happen. Full on deletion would not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celise Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 (edited) One or two disgruntled customers isn't going to move heaven and Earth or even EA from their headquarters in Redwood City simply because there is dislike for something. Iokath isn't going anywhere and neither is FE or ET. I agree with what others are saying, make a suggestion to see a change to Iokath, one that would help make it easier to play rather than harder to like.

Equeliber Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 I personally quite enjoy Iokath. Map layout is fine when you get used to it. It's a pretty unique planet, I don't mind it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gokkus Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 Yes please, it is absolutely awful. Pretty much everything about it. From the bug that disables sprint, to your name tag changing, to the terrible lay-out, ****** quests, to the fact that half the time my companion disappears for no reason (can't blame him though).

aerockyul Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 I completely agree with the confusing (almost obtuse) map markers, I hate that the weekly purposefully can't be completed in a single day (the one thing otherwise on Dantooine that I don't like as well), and finally I loathe the missions that require that I pay for them to attempt them. I'm not a f2p or preferred, make them pay anything for all I care, but this "mechanic" is a bit of a poke in the eye to a sub. I'd rather use that currency on the decos/planetary vendor. I literally haven't been on Iokath for months so I don't remember if the vendor even uses that currency or if it's reputation/credits or if it is in fact reputation/planetary currency. I'm just saying I would rather that currency's only purpose was that and not to "buy" mission access. Like Ossus relics, which I'm really happy with in this regard.

Really, it's probably the most rage inducing thing designed in the game since the 'thrill of the hunt'. Other than going through it once for "story" reasons, there's no requirement for you to ever go to Iokath. I can't see what difference "deleting" it would make to you. This is another case of someone requesting that SWTOR be changed to suit only them ..... or .... yet another (partially successful) troll. It's hard to tell these days.

Equeliber Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 WHAT? There's actually one other person who likes Iokath? I...I feel faint *fans self* I am working on 10000 kills on Iokath, so I visit it every few days for dailies or droid smashing + crafting material gathering. I guess I like post-apocalyptic worlds without humans. For some reason some areas on Iokath remind me of Crysis 3 that I really enjoyed back in the day. By the way, it's a very solid place for getting Grade 10 mats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard to tell these days. Reputation, story for other characters and conquest. Hyperbole. Instead of labeling people as trolls because you don't agree with them, why don't you go chug oatmeal.

One or two disgruntled customers isn't going to move heaven and Earth or even EA from their headquarters in Redwood City simply because there is dislike for something.

I agree with what others are saying, make a suggestion to see a change to Iokath, one that would help make it easier to play rather than harder to like. Oh jeez, I didn't think deleting an entire planet with relevant plot points and story progression would be such an absurd suggestion. It totally wasn't meant to highlight the clear frustrations with a still buggy planet with an awful layout, bad weekly and subpar storyline.
