yea they should stick to armor looks that is star wars and not try to be "cool" and pry it into a generic sci fi game.

Mixing PVP and PVE elements can cause a lot of arguments , it already has on the official forums. At least Ilum is getting something. i quite like the armor and as someone pointed out the Gree are from some distant galaxy and obviously they are fans of Tron , maybe the disney influence is starting to shine through.

I loves it launch gave it some time. Quit and came back for the F2P. Now I feel it needs to join the big dust pile under in the closet of dead games. IP killed by a non Mmorpg company or even a clear end design in site. As well a bugs lots of bugs

Originally posted by BadOrb A couple things. First, I'm so sick and tired of hearing people bash the disney acquisition of Lucas Arts and then saying anything bad or out of the ordinary that now happens in SWTOR is because of Disney. Disney treats the production companies it buys out pretty damn well, Marvel Studios being a great example. Also EAware had and has been making these terrible armor decisions WAY before Disney bought out Lucas. So get over it!!!!
Second, Bill I completely agree with your article for once. Playing: LoL / GW2 |

Reputation system is very disappointing, I know the game needs some "fluff" but this isn't very nice fluff at all, it's old, stale & boring fluff, I think the devs need a "creative enema" to flush out these tired old ideas so they can move onto something interesting instead.

Originally posted by bingbongbros Well my reply got wiped lovelly , anyways way to miss my point and the fact a lot of that stuff was off the cuff. I happen to love the fact Disney aquired Star Wars as matter of fact as we might of never got any more films otherwise. So maybe check someones post history before accusing me of being in a relm of the Anti-Disney crowd , thank you. It was my humor and you will notice it more very soon. BadOrb.

Originally posted by BadOrb Why would I waste my time browsing your post history to reply to one post that annoyed me? The reason I even mentioned you is because of what you said in that single post not your past identity on this website. So from the perspective of an outsider to your history you came off as a Anti-Disney person, just sayin. Playing: LoL / GW2 |

Hmmm... the armour looks like something out of Anarchy Online. I am not sure this update has anything for me, personally but I guess it is a good thing that PvP is seeing something added to it. Is it what is needed ? I don't know since I don't PvP in ToR.
Playing MUDs and MMOs since 1994. |

I think the armour looks cool! I personally don't care for some of the attire in SWTOR, but I also don't expect it too look precisely like the outfits in the movies. This is thousands of years before Vader and Luke. Bellbottoms would rock! Really, I just want variety - excluding the same outfit with a different color.

Was hoping the first large-update to open world pvp in TOR would inspire me to come back. At this rate I'll just wait 3 years and return just to do the only enjoyable thing in TOR, the story.
Dozens of MMO's, RTS's, FPS's, etc. |

I cancelled my sub the day the notes for this patch came out. Endless daily grinding was bad enough. They can take their faction grinding and cram it. Hamster wheel style repetion is not content. |

Originally posted by Sevenstar61 I'vre come to accept the fact tha the biggest complainers about this game don't even play. Anyways, yeah, I'm psyched too. I can't play as much as some people, so these updates are coming at a good pace for me. Excited about about it. -Unconstitutional laws aren't laws.- |

Heck after this patch, I can't even play the game, it's just a black screen or freezes and glitching. I double the system requirements as well. HE is crap, everyone knows it, and it ruined this game from the beginning. Well that and the complete lack of any MMO content as well. Now they patch it with Tron armor and half the people can't even log in. Yay. The F2P restrictions were on my last nerve anyway. I love Bioware's story telling ability, but good grief guys, get something right. Everything since Dragon Age has been just awful. Will always have hope and try my best to support Bioware, but you can only deal with failure so many times. Currently Playing: Path of Exile, Everquest |

Originally posted by Nitth Its thinking like this that made the game this bad. All they had to do was give us the armor and the ability to ALTER IT. There is this crazy new invention (haha) in MMORPGs called "dye" and "patterns" that allows the player to change the colors on armor, even placing 2-3 different colors on a single piece of armor depending on the pattern...even the ability to create a guild symbol, and place that on armor also. Basically making it so a single piece of armor can have 100s of different looks. This game doesnt have it, because the developers are short sighted people that really dont have a clue when it comes to the MMORPG genre...which would be why this update is also including an expansion to the Legacy system which has become a JOKE in the MMORPG world for how useless it is...and also combining PvE with PvP. If they had a CLUE, they would be working on what drove so many players AWAY from the game. “I hope we shall crush...in its birth the aristocracy of our moneyed corporations, which dare already to challenge our government to a trial of strength and bid defiance to the laws of our country." ~Thomes Jefferson |

I don't play GW2 daily as my chars are well off. I have tried to play This game alot since f2p. My gear is good as its the old pvp/pve welfare epics the had since day one. What hurts this is how they are not learning from other companies and just doing their "own" vision. Fine but your vision is crap why? Your model for money nerfong F2P so harshly is stupid you want to pvp well grind pve to buy the pvp tokens. Not smart IMO here's a thought limit the feeds or rewards in the match if ur a f2p. Armor is armor live or go away people are all still shunned from wow type clones so you need to innovate I this regards. If they don't change some o heir business models they will have a slow death.
