Eh I'm just salty that I got none of the new stuff I wanted even though I've got many hundreds of millions of credits and can easily buy them in a few days. Wanted a Desert Green War Hero crystal so of course I get six Indestructible ones.

Cool, when I went to bed 8 hours ago, the patch was at 86%. This morning it's at 89%. It's moved a few tenths of a percent since I got up, but that's it. Do I close out and redownload or stick it out?

So apparently there's no room on the ship for this, but we NEED a goon spa. Other goons have already said they'd donate other items.

We need this.

I would just like to point out that I supported your company and bought a hypercrate, and got almost nothing other than the swamp rancor. So any extra stuff you feel like sending me will not be returned unwanted.

The chance cubes are cool but man it's disappointing buying a hypercrate and literally getting from the new pack -

1 color crystal
1 mount (Swamp Rancor)
5 Lower Zakuulian knight sets

and about 6 other mish mash boxes of armor from the new set. :(

All I got were an inventory full of chance cubes and a vibrosword. The chance cube thing is bullshit, you shouldn't get more than on in a pack.

Stupid question, but did you quit and restart the launcher completely, or just pause? I saw that error multiple times and just quitting/relaunching always got it moving again.


It resumes from where you left off after you close/restart. :)

Soiled Meat
Hypercrate report 2/10

What I wanted: A rancor, any rancor, and the new dualsaber
What I got: Krampus, Rolly-Wheel, 2 Zakuul sidecars, and a metric fuckton of "Grand Chance Cubes."

Hopefully I can sell what I got and buy a rancor. :argh: Maybe I'll just use the rolly-wheel.

The Grand Chance Cube sucks. I just loved popping a crate and seeing two of them in it and going, "Welp, here comes some old bronze poo poo I couldn't care less about, too bad it's not one of the things I specifically bought this for." IMO these should be sold separately and not eat one (AND MANY TIMES BOTH) of the slots for new stuff. I kinda thought they would end up being somewhat rare and have a pretty good chance to drop cool old unavailable poo poo, not be in practically every crate eating up one (AND MANY TIMES BOTH) of the slots for the stuff I actually wanted. You know, I was looking for a hideously ugly bronze Czerka mount that looks like I'm riding around on a pile of old pallets and something called "Mood: Jawaface." Someone tell me they got something good out of one of these things, please.

I did get a thing that makes my eyes glow red for like 30 seconds every 3 minutes if I remember to click the item. That's pretty cool, I guess. Too bad it doesn't just make your eyes glow red for good.

The gear in the boxes was bound but the boxes themselves weren't. The gear also didn't have level restrictions so you could do them on level 60 characters and then give the resulting gear to your level 1 alt.

If you're patient you can get a rancor when the Nar Shaddaa Nightlife event comes back this summer, assuming it does. I ended up getting a couple of them while grinding out the rare slot machine achievement.

Counterpoint - I spent millions the first time the event came and didn't get the Rancor. I'm talking hours and hours of afk slot machine playing.

Yeah my situation may be unique since my character is loaded because a) if I wanted any old stuff I don't have I could just buy it off the GTN b) I don't need credits so selling them doesn't help me either but I bought Anarchist packs to get the Anarchist stuff.

In packs past you'd still end up with a garbage heap of bronze stuff so I guess it doesn't really matter but the double Chance Cube packs definitely suck. Instead of thirty GTN pages of the same bronze sniper rifle we'll now have thirty pages of Glowing Eyes: Red.
