yup,,not many have that privilege anymore

and yes ,,,you are rich,,not so much because of the 15$

but you have a computer, internet, and spare time to spend on games

a poor person doesnt have any of those,,or have you seen many posts from somalia?,,or sudan?

playing games is  a luxury,,and bitching about them even more so

our ancestors would have flogged us , until we had plowed 3 fields with our hands

I'd be more than happy to plow a field with my hands if it brought in a paycheck; you can keep the flogging :D

I don't doubt that you made that post during beta. A lot of people made similar posts. You can not reason with a fanboy though even if you are trying to help the game. Blind devotion is a horrible thing.

Love your name, or better yet, the song it reminds me of \m/

Come to rav.enjin.com/holiday and check it out.

"We got Death Star, we got Death Star, we got Death Star, we got Death Star, knock it out the box, Luke, knock it out!"

Yeah, that's what I'm going with :D

There are useful and constructive forums somewhere? ;)~

I didn't enjoy going Preferred, no choice really, but its not really that bad if you've already got 2 characters to 50, and really enjoy the class stories of the game. That leaves you with 6 slots open (mine were already filled long ago), and now I don't feel like I'm wasting money when I sometimes go days without playing. But when I do play a game, even now that I've gone "Preferred," its still mostly Star Wars: The Old Republic that I play :D

At least until I've gotten every main  class to 50 (or complete their stories, or whatever) :D

After that, no clue. Since there will most likely be no more class stories, I'll probably (but not certainly) be done. But until then. . .still getting a kick out of this game, even after playing it for over 14 months :D

As a subscriber I have found the customer service to be excellent. I've filled three tickets. Two of them were answered within hours, and one within three days.

Ah, I remember the good ole days, back before they fired everbody, when you had a ticket replied to in three hours, on average. And once, but only once, I actually got to talk to a customer support person with the customer-support in-game chat thingy! Ah, those were the days, before the dark. . .err, not so dark. Still a fun game, but 3 hours did turn into 3 days, lol.

My 'favorite' bug is the Holiday hologram stun bug for the Consular class, for your healer companion (whatever his name is). I can't remember which update it was, but it went from working (update) not working (update) working (update) not working, and it has never worked again.

Well it works, poor choice of words I don't feel like editing, but what I mean by broken is that, though it still stuns, the hologram itself no longer shows up, and that sucks.

Not that it matters now. I recently went 'premium' and my Sage was one of my 2 level 50's I had to put on ice, so whatever :D

Gotta see the rest of the stories; and now I don't feel like I'm wasting money when I go for days without playing to avoid burning out :D (Sorry for the extraneousness. Yeah that's a word now, as extranea is not really a word, or not one I want to use. . .doing it again! lol)

Inquisitor (Assassin for me) is funny as hell, if you like dry humor :D

Also, certain companions in certain cut-scenes can be funny as Hoth :D

I was a subscriber of SWTOR from Jan 19 2012 to March 16 2013 (close enough), and I liked to post in the forums ever once in a while. Not hardcore by any stretch, but I just discovered the hard way that you can't even post in the forums if you are a FtP or even a 'Preferred' customer. Not 'preferred' enough for your opinions to matter, no not at all.

Not really angry about it, but it was mildly disappointing. But then. . .

I remembered good ole MMORPG.com. Glad this site is here :D

For a few folks usually the same ones who over and over post Swtor is damned if they do and damned if they dont. As one of the many who actually play this game I am looking forward to it.

I think you got your few and many adverbs switched.  I logged in last weekend and the server was deserted.

Hyping a few minor changes like this patch has is only something EA would do.

 

What did you do, log in at 4:00am? That explains alot. . . Either that or you got SWTOR mixed up with some other game.

As much as any new content is good for a game, a game that is hurting and struggling to bring in new players one would think the company would start focusing on where the game is bad instead of adding little to add to the game. Expanding a near worthless system like the legacy system is just telling everyone to expect more of of the same that made the game lose so many players in the first place.

Good for those that stuck around, short term.

Long term, doesnt do much to bring in or keep new players and certainly doesnt bring back old players. So, fans can cheer all they way, but they are not facing the reality of a game that is hurting, why its hurting or how to save it so it lasts longer.

Clueless.

Yes!  Systems!  Thank you!  Finally, someone saying what I've been trying to say for a few years now but more so in the last few months after sinking my teeth into GW2 and realizing it is lack of systems that stops me from playing.   The games adding the systems are the ones I'm playing right now.  Like Lotro and Rift, heck even WoW(although it could definitely use more focus in this department, but apparently they get this and 5.1 looks interesting with a new Brawler Arena system).

The key to those old games everyone talks about like AC, EQ, FFXI are the sheer volume of systems in those games that keep people logging in.  Extra content is awesome and should never stop coming, but MMORPGs are all about adding systems and keeping players in the game.  Somewhere along the way, this core idea has become lost and needs to make a reappearance fast.

This and digital actor NPCs, but that's wishful thinking :D R.I.P. digital actors.
