I had to leave swtor because they went to super easy mode , but if they changed back to add some challenge I would be back in a flash

"five of our favorite"

Im just glad it dosn't say top 5 features in 1.2 - Cause damn!

1.2 actually caused me to unsub, only still playing because I have paid time left, the game is still somewhat playable, but the thing not mentioned in this thread is the way they destroyed class balance with this patch, all the force user classes were buffed, except sins who weren't touced, and sorcs/sages who recieved a minor nerf but are still quite powerful. If you played any sort of BH/trooper, or a dps scoundrel/operative you took it in the shorts. The additional content was so-so and the changes to teh classes made this game "star wars; world of marauders".

Well in SW:TOR you're Jim Carey and Ed Harris turned off the sky's rotation setting.

I'm with you too;  I have 3 50s + other alts... sadly I have some them on other servers before EA talked about 1.2 in full... I AM not going to make another & bring to 50 just to have an expensive Legacy tract... I am skilled in afew crafts too; IMHO, 1.2 really did not help in RE much at all. yeah, I know EA has more help for us crafter in the next patch,.. however, I don't like feeling like there is a carrot waiting for me to bite...   I will leave SWTOR in 80 days...  & yes, will be in Beta this coming weekend for another mmo...

See Ya In Anotha Life, Brotha !

Have fun  & ty

 

 

So awesome that i am not playing anymore. I think you have to be a major fanboy to enjoy the new patch.

SWTOR is terrible, and so is this patch. I just wish Bioware would stop spamming me with "Please come back!" offers.

Still playing and still having a blast.

Note: the "5 best" list was that of the AUTHOR and not particularly the 5 best of anyone else.

Some of 1.2 stuff is not coming until a later patch (1.2.1 , 1.2.2....) .

Anyone that has played an Op on Hard Mode (Lost Island) can not say the game is on "easy mode".

Comparing SWG graphics as being better the SWTOR equals fail. I played SWG and while the graphics were fine when released, they would not compare to what you get with SWTOR.

Long load times are directly a factor of the age of your computer. Had slow times prior to upgrading and now I am loading extremely fast.

The very best of 1.2 still feels pretty 'meh' to me. Too much fluff and more grind. I really wanted to love SWTOR; wanted it to be the game I played for years...but it's not. I doubt I will be playing it past the summer.

Another nice attempt at creating a positive spin out of a totally lack-lustre experience, staff.

The patch displeased more people than it satisfied if you look at the official and non-official forums.

There was nothing added to make the level 50's experience worth continuing, hence the free giveaways.

I could've used that level 1 sprint on Correscant (no idea how to spell it). That was simply beyond boring ;/

I fear(?) what will happen to this game once Diablo 3, GW2, and even TERA are out

There are no fewer than six (6) articles, "columns", and "news stories" (not that there is any difference at this site, they are mixed and matched in different sections all the time) about the 1.2 patch for TOR and elements contained in it.

This is all for one patch, for one game.

One has to think this site has some vested interest in promoting this game for this kind of attention.

I see the weekly SWTOR fluff piece quota is still in effect.

Anyone else think it's funny that people who "claim" to have left the game still like posting in the SWTOR forum?  I mean it's your right and all just a tad strange...jes saying

Stop reading into things so astutely.

Update 1.2: Legacy has turned out to be a massive update for Star Wars: The Old Republic and frankly there are too many awesome things in the update to list them all. Instead, we’re picking five of our favorite additions and changes from ‘Legacy’ to highlight as part of The List this week.

It was amusing hearing people complain of the lengthy travel times in Star Wars: The Old Republic when the game launched. Heck, even I complained about it. Then, I began to think all the way back to games like Star Wars Galaxies where I regularly ran across the world for missions and other adventures before mounts and vehicles became commonplace. And there I was, complaining about the travel times in TOR. #ModernMMOProblems, anyone? Legitimate or not, the fact of the matter is we’ve been trained to want instant gratification due in part to the way MMOs of the last couple of years have been designed and so this fairly tiny addition to Star Wars: The Old Republic makes it into my top five.

No matter what you post Mike you will get nothing but people crapping on the game, sad to say poeple really must had huge hopes for this game to be this angry, its a good thing that GW2 will cure cancer and world hunger or we would all be in a bad way.

Lol - I have yet to find a game people praise on here post release... mines small niche games.

Usually the more hate a game receives on here - the better game it is - minus SWG NGE and a few others of course.

LOTRO is one of the few that doesn't get bashed too badly that I was rank as a top 5 to 10 mmo.

So basically what you're saying is that your own claim is wrong because Lord of the Rings Online doesn't get bashed that much.
