I *think* that questionnaire was intended for use for KOTFE "season 2".

I know I read they're hiring an analyst for in game rewards/cartel market so hopefully they're looking to gather feedback about what people actually want and would use.

This stuff would be a lot better if they had a costume unlock thing like DCUO where you don't have to store all the extra pieces. You can kind of do this with costume options but it could be better.

How about we run one of the conquest ones tomorrow night? 6 CDT seems to be working for most people, but earlier might be better since it's the weekend.

I'll run EV, but it'd have to be a bit later. Hosting a dinner party this evening :agesilaus:

Yeah, I was gonna say, you guys have it backwards. I really hope they don't fix the unlimited rocket boost "bug" with random mounts.

Unless I'm missing something, random mount rocket boost doesn't have the main advantage of rocket boost because you can take it/activate it inside? So your just left with a slower mount that you have to reactivate after 12 seconds and disappears the second an enemy targets you...

Pretty much the only time I've found it useful is that brief window between getting rocket boost and piloting on alts.

Like collections but without having to collect an entire set before storing it, and also being able to store the hundreds of pieces of gear that come from places other than the Cartel Market. Several other games have a system for this in place, and even WoW is making it a big feature of their next expansion.

So I'm sitting on top of a sandcrawler, having gotten there just too late to catch the balloon. I'm waiting. I can be patient. The balloon floats away, goes out of sight, and eventually comes back into view. It's going to be back in just a few minutes. And then the balloon winks out of existence. :doom:

Yeah, I really wish they'd add a wardrobe for non cartel market armors. I could clear out 3/4 of my cargo holds of old raid armor and stuff. I get that they want you buying the entire set of cartel gear to unlock in collections, but it would be nice if individual pieces could be stored for that character only so you don't have to hold onto that one piece you have no interest in the rest of the set for.

Just coordinate with a Juggernaut a time to get those datacrons. Ignore balloon, just have Juggernaut force push you up, then intercede up to you to get it themselves.

No kidding. Having a place to put all the pieces of legacy armor from those crates would be wonderful.

Been gone for a few months thanks to school, how is this game looking population-wise? I know whenever I get on reddit's r/SWTOR it's full of people saying the game is a ghost town and Bioware has failed us and we should all cancel our subscriptions before it's TOO LATE, but then I get on here and people seem to be enjoying the game quite a bit more.

Progression raiding guilds are dying every day, but casual play and story mode stuff is populated. Just don't expect an endgame.

It's a great time to be playing the game if you're interested in the story and haven't gone through all 8 class/stories along with the expansions. The KOTFE storyline is pretty cool too, though now that it's a chapter a month it's dragging a bit.

Now, if you're looking for a MMORPG with raids and group activity, it's a bad time for the game. The last new raid came out with the release of Shadow of Revan back in October of 2014, so endgame is severely lacking.

Preferred is basically free to play with slightly fewer annoyances. Subscribing is joining the SWTOR Master Race.

Dulfys Hard Mode raiding guides are all still accurate. The level might not be right for the older ones, since all HM raids are now level 65, but the strategies are the same.

okay, yeah.

if all the subscriber rewards until you get the stupid HK mission are all going to be HK bullshit, I'm going to unsub for a while after whatever deadline happens. If I weren't paid up through April I'd probably just do it now because a 3hr mission once a month isn't really compelling content.
