uh you said they were *eliminating* the champion unassembled drop rate...
Terrible game, won't play.
Will play, EU server.
Will play, US E server
Will play, US W server.

RP (both PVE and PVP)
Republic
Empire
Jedi Knight / Sith Warrior
Consular / Sith Inquisitor
Smuggler / Imperial Agent
Trooper / Bounty Hunter
My understanding based upon that very post (specifically the last line) is that they are removing unassembled items. That said its Bioware and they seem to have become the masters of being as non-specific as possible about these things. Having perused the dev tracker just now to confirm my belief I can find nothing concrete either way on it.
It would seem to me to be absurd to offer the opportunity for an unassembled item as well as the tokens because the token numbers they're talking about (7 per bag) is going to mean a player can get 3-4 items a week and be full champion in like 2-3 weeks (assuming they're only doing dailies/weeklies not turning in any comms for extra bags). If you throw in the chance for an unassembled item on top then thats just over the top.
Edit: but as I said earlier, they barely mention unassembled items so who knows.
lolLong term, our plan is to evolve Star Wars: The Old Republic’s game economy to a more player driven model, strengthen and improve the GTN and embrace the game’s extensive appearance customization throughout the game.
They're going to have to stop banning people for buying and reselling things on the GTN, then.

They will have to start in order to stop. They prob just wont bother starting tho as it will be a lot of hassle if they are just going to have to stop after.
LMAO are you joking? Isn't that a legitimate and expected way of being able to make gold/isk/credits in any MMO?
Btw I haven't been keeping up to date with patch notes as I never renewed my account after the first free month. Any new developments added or on the Horizon for PvP? I'm not talking about that Ilum bullshit I mean battleground/arena style stuff? I heard there was a new battleground on the way?
I like PvPing but I just hate that 9/10 games are fucking huttball. In the end I was seriously starting to feel like part of my soul was dieing every time I saw that god damn huttball loading screen.
If you ignore the rules people will, half the time, quietly rewrite them so they don't apply to you.

Your own fault for rolling Empire, the faction everyone with half a braincell knew was going to be overpopulated.LMAO are you joking? Isn't that a legitimate and expected way of being able to make gold/isk/credits in any MMO?

Wait, they have been banning people for buying then reselling items on the network? :O
Links please, because that is just beyond retarded :cripes:
No they havn't been banning people for using the GTN. its just a troll post, like the last 572375023, "i've been banned for X" posts that i've seen.
I also have a Republic Trooper. I still found PvP to be a chain of huttball matches with the odd alderaan battleground thrown in. Besides even if 99.99% of the population was empire that still wouldn't excuse the game designers from having to come up with some better PvP content. The customer can play however the hell they want within the confines of the EULA. If the company wants money they'd better damn well adapt to the community not vice versa.

And you know why you should stop whining? Be happy they added a warzone for same faction combat, or it would be like in pretty much every other MMO where the overpopulated side waits for 30 min to 1h for a BG to pop, while the other gets instant qs.
Then again, that would probably help population a bit I imagine.
Bio failed completely at doing any sort of faction balancing, it's bad.
Indeed.
My apologies for the confusion.
Well, unless you want to go to Ilum early.

Finally completed the end of Act 1 on my agent character, pretty awesome storyline so far. Although the boss at the end of the act was ruined by being completely broken, had to stand on top of him in order to be able to shoot him otherwise "no line of sight"
Theres been quite a few cases of people claiming to have been banned/suspended for various things which turned out to be totally false, almost like someone is orchestrating a deliberate campaign to discredit Bioware /tinfoilhat
tbh it's got more to do with the whole lets say shit about EA and either troll the fuck of of retards who believe every single negative thing said about EA and on the other side you have those that are basically hate EA so much they make anything up they can think of to discredit them.
That sad fact is you really don't need to make things up about EA in the first place since they do enough shit stuff in the normal line of duty.
I don't actually believe theres any deliberate campaignbut that doesn't mean its not a strategy that a competitor could deploy, say a certain company that has the biggest MMO in the western market that has stagnated as its got older and is slowly losing its players...
That said, this game has enough problems of its own without a malicious campaign to highlight themYet I still login every day and have a blast (wtf is wrong with me?)
pretty deliberate Anti-SWTOR campaign here.

Funny thing is, while the game has a lot of weak points, it's also very good in others, but in recent years it seems people accept only 1 and 10 sort of scores for their games. So if something, even if something little is in there that they don't like they will shit on it like there's no tomorrow. Add to that it's an EA game and the shit spewing circlejerk gets even bigger. It's either fanboys or "haters" these days. :/ Doesn't help that the main forums are accessible to anyone, paying customer or not.
Oh i like that.
No. A Rhinoceros is not a fat Unicorn.
that article is pretty on point. say what you will, but swtor isn't fucking terrible. i lurk the swtor forums a lot because i work in a cube, and some of the "rumors" being spread, even currently, are straight up ridiculous. i really do not understand the motive, especially when considering the extent of the bandwagon. bunch of nerfherders, i say!
one thing about their customer support: i had a human respond to me the other day. i seriously reported a warzone afker, stating his name, and that i had screens to prove it. i didn't expect anything from it, but i got a protocol droid response that indicated my ticket was actually read by a human. maybe something will happen!~
