After being away from the game for awhile, I'm excited to see these "Blueprint Fragments" showing up as rewards for stuff. I always felt this game needed more currencies.

It's not a currency, just a junk event item you sell to vendors. The lore being that you're reading them as you get them to gather more knowledge on your Copero stronghold

I don't know what Barotrauma is but I bet it doesn't itch! C'mon, scratch, you know you want to... On an entirely different subject, Swtorista's in-game birthday party is coming up - this Friday, to be exact. I've been to the last two and they were very entertaining, but given that it's not on a Saturday this time round and it'll be between 8:00 and 12:00 hours PST, you may be out of luck if you live in the Americas...

You guys remember when SWTOR launched and SA had a BUNCH of threads? One thread for each advanced class/mirror One thread for each class story One thread for PVP One thread for guild stuff And now we just have one thread to rule them all! They were all legit active threads too. Man swtor really had the potential to be amazing but they rushed out an incomplete product and just hemorrhaged players

I recently started fresh on the Shae Viszla server and the levelling experience these days is so much more streamlined and enjoyable from my original Imperial Agent where I had to do 90% of the quests and most of the flashpoints just to keep up with exp requirements.

This game probably would've fared better if by the time of its release WoW hadn't been around for years and accumulated a ton of content already. Some of the mechanis initially in the game were really painful, too (planetary commendations and companion gearing were the worst). But hey, even upon release it was still lightyears (ho ho) beyond SWG, and it's still around and being actively developed after 12 years. It's done pretty well all things considered.

I really enjoy this game. It's fixed most of the flaws with it, imo. I just do worry about its longevity at this point.

Mercurius posted:Yeah. I remember testing the beta and thinking 'this is just an average WoW clone with voice acting and a coat of Star Wars paint' so I never really paid attention to it until much later when Shadow of Revan was released and everyone was super positive about it. All quests, all side quests, the bonus planetary questline...ugh. I recall the first time through wondering whether I would ever get off Taris

I didn't mind having to do all the content - certainly not the first time round; it's just that even when you did, it was quite challenging to keep both your own and your companion's gear up to snuff. Never mind switching companions if you didn't really need to (and of course once you got your one healing companion, there was little incentive to switch to any other unless maybe you were a healer yourself).

Shortly after launch they added a way to get him some basic level 50 gear but holy poo poo that was BS in the beginning.

We have That's No Goon (Imperial) and Goon Squad (Republic) but they have been largely inactive for like...10 years now. Our key raid group took a break before 3.0 dropped and....welp, I'm sure we'll all come back sooner or later to start up again!

As far as I remember, Starfleet Dental was the primary (maybe even the only, but I don't quite remember) goon guild for SWTOR initially. Don't think it lasted very long though, what with the mass exodus of players after the first few months. Regarding TNG and GS, I mean, from time to time I suggest we could maybe do something but nobody seems especially interested. Raiding beyond SM Ops is probably a bridge too far at this point (and even just getting a group of 8 together will be challenging enough), but some FPs or Uprising or whatever would be a start. Or some of us could simply occasionally participate in something like this. Anything just to get some of us in the same group at this point.

I'll gladly participate in whatever but I spent 5 years being guild leader and trying to organize something after Nipponophile was lured away by sexy cat girls in FF14. Us talking in Discord is the closest thing to guild activity we got. Part of the problem is if you want to play the game seriously you pretty much have to be in a big guild - I sat in TNG for the longest time, but with Conquest bonuses being so important, I shifted most of my characters to friends guilds.

A surprising amount of story content in that portion of the story is gated behind not being able to get 16 people subscribed and online at the same time. I've seen bugger all of it.

Well if you want to see it now is the time, there are constantly SM Dread Fortress and Dread Palace ops running back to back all day since they're the quickest way to get tech frags. Takes less than an hour to do both. Unlike back in the true 2.0 days where even "story" mode ops were challenging.

I am not completely sure which Goon guild I was in at launch. I remember SFD having a great brand and presence here, but they were Republic and I think PvE, so I joined whatever the main Imp PvP guild was at the time, which I thought was just "Goon Squad" but could be wrong. It was the only real raiding I've ever done with SWTOR. Bunch of smart and patient Goons told me exactly where to stand, what to do, and when. Good times.

Goon Squad is a great guild to join on Republic Side because there's a very good chance you'll be made guildmaster randomly at some point due to people not logging in. XD
