You can only call 1 pet then you have to wait for it to spawn till you can call another.
You are already calling a pet ## seconds remaining.
That's great the higher level CH you are the more you get punished!
Scuse Me but this is BANTHA POODU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Please continue to pay your monthly fees, this will help! In the meantime, go look for rares, it seems to work for the majority of our CH subscribers.

This is better then nothing. And it is better then the way it was before this publish.
You want to go back to:
1. Get mission at Bestine Terminal.
2. Mission is 2K away to the SW.
3. Get to mission area and find out you are in the middle of a suburban/industrial complex. We need zoning laws!
4. Can camp be placed here? Nope. To close to someones miner. How about over here? No? Well how about here? No? Here? No? Here? No?Here? No?Here? No?Here? No? Here? No? Here? Yes!!! Finally!!!
5. Step 4 just wasted, let me see, about 60 seconds. And now you got to walk back to the mission and hopeyour critters don't decide to autostore on you.
You want to still do the above? This mini-fix aint stopping you. Like the poster who was one stared wrote "Make a camp". Wait, you can't. Step 4 screws that up. Wait, I know. Pull out your pets at the mission terminal and hope they don't auto store on you or get distracted looking at flowers on the way to the mission.
It seems a few CHs around here are like the mother-in-law has dipicted on TV and the DEVsplay thepoor son-in-law. He can do nothing right.
I aint saying its perfect. But it aint what you are making it out to be either. Doom and disaster.

No, the devs have been repeatedly informed that they're meatlumps, and specifically given concrete examples why they're perceived that way, with specific proposals on how to rid themselves of that stigma.
Then they turn around and make thiings even worse.

They must be laughing real hard. You ever walk into any of the other forums? We are tame compared to Jedi, DE, Bounty Hunter. Just to name a few.

They're going to do it anyway regarless of what we say about them, that much is clear.
The contempt for the customer that SOE employees openly display is appalling.

just stick to the camp then
i didn't mean to offend you or anyone else.
it's just a fact that no matter what you say you hardly get a response from SOE.
it took almost 2 weeks and more than 11 pages on one thread to get the running issues on pets fixed and no DEV or moderator ever answered to the thread - it just been hotfixed ( if one could call it a fix at all )
autostore never got fixed and ranged attack isn't still or no more available epecially on BE pets.
all the rants and complaints from CHs seem to go poof.
others the rants from the whiners who yell for more nerfs on CH.
SONY won't help us. they gave us a nice prof to play with and once we got used to it they nerf it to death.
setting up a camp and calling 1 or up to 3 pets sure is faster than waiting 15 secs for each pet.
complaints or rants don't help just arrange yourself with the way it is and get the best from it.
as for myself i can wait 15 secs to call pet or vehicle and in regard of the speeder it's pretty cool to be able to generate it without a camp.
15 secs ain't even enough time for a cig so why bother.
oh and on test-Center it was 30 when they tested it the first days so we can just be lucky
my 2 cents

BTW call your vehicle last. (yes another 15 sec total 60 for an MCH) Because if you forget and get on your vehicle while the timer is running on a pet call the call is *CANCELED* as though you entered combat. (doesnt seem to be a after combat delay though to restart the call)

Oh yeah just discovered if a member of your group is in combat and in range, you can't call pets /vehicles. and the 60 sec timer then applies to all group members.
Strange I though they wanted to force us to group

This has been true for quite a while. I (we) got mopped up by a krayt dragon because of this. Our ranger went ahead to locate one. We set up camp and before we could get ready and/or call our weapons/armor the krayt attacked the ranger. We ran to his aid and he ran to us bringing the krayt and the inablility to call pets. It was a swift victory for the krayt.

How can you nerf something that was not in game yet? Just use your camp like before and nothing changes. OR... wait 15 seconds and call your next pet.
