A couple of configuration gripes I have:

"You cannot delete the binding for 'Toggle Mouse Mode'"

"'NUMPADENTER' conflicts with a binding for 'Toggle Mouse Mode'. You cannot overwrite the binding for 'Toggle Mouse Mode'."


Also, some kind of function to copy ALL settings from another character would be great.

Ok, here we are 6 months into the game. I have done theme parks, probably sold more armor than most peeps, the game is getting tiring. The question is, what is going to make this game last? The GCW. I would like to see more GM run events in the game,at leasta day on each server. This may sound demanding on behalf of the staff, but would make for a great game. I play frequently, and have yet to see one on Eclipse. Why not appoint GMs, like in everquest, and let them run the events? That would be a great idea if a trusting few could be found. This would solve the monotony of the combat portion of the game.

The second issue deals with the crafter side of the game. I have been an armorsmith since day 1. Wheras new dungeons, etc, have been added to the game, there has been only one type of armor added to the game, RIS, which is more of a looted item. Architects now have the player citiy structures to build, droid engineers will soon have combat droids. What about armorsmith and tailor? New clothes would be great, and new armor is a must. Now, the armor doesnt necessarliy have to be better or even as good as composite, just some more variety in the look. How about 3 different types of composite...same stats..different look? How about more low end armors? For example, a mabari equivalent whose special protect is acid or restraint?

Lastly, how about 1 or 2 new planets, buildable. On eclipse all of the buildable planets have turned into a metropolis. We need more land.

I understand the past 6 months have been spent polishing the game, and now that the severe bugs have been dealt with, its time to add some content.

We need a place to report bugs in LIVE. Where can this be done

I just walked through the wall of the Coronet starport. Can we please fix the collision?!!?! Sure enough once I was outside there was an NPC trapped halfway in the wall. I'm not sure what to call this "issue" but it's been around since Beta. Please fix this kind of stuff...

Also, my weapon just reached 1/824. What do I do with it? Destroy? Sell to the junk man? Shouldn't it really auto-destroy?

I don't know how many others feel this way, but I think the option to color your own armor should be kept. It seems like a real high tech option that would be great for Composite Armor. When I saw the color pallette, I was amazed at how many colors were there, including the one I had really wanted for my armor in the first place (which the armorsmith misunderstood). I wouldn't mind paying a few more credits in order to get an option like this built into the armor when it was made, perhaps an additional component can do it?

I really think the devs stumbled on a great thing here. Maybe the same can be implented to vehicles, houses, etc? Or maybe a can of spray paint or something like that that you can buy to color what you want (like armor dye in EverQuest). Ultimately, I like the idea for the user to see/choose what colors they want, not leave it up to someone else.

Is this thread even saying anything all i read is BLah blah blah. Its very hard to jump fromtopic to topicpost after post on this thread. This has to be the worst idea by far. Devs have now combined the whole SWG discussion forum into one thread. lol

Why do I have to click multiple times to have vendors/ticket droids work?

In the case of ticket droids, it's because the server still doesn't think you're standing still, and boarding shuttles is one of those things you "cannot do while running", where "running" includes walking and posture changes (ie. you just stood up because the shuttle arrived.)

I finally figured this out by targeting the ticket droid and entering /board. When the server thought I was standing still, it gave me the ticket selector.

So TH, could we make /board an action that you CAN do while "running"? I grudgingly understand foraging and deed placing, since the server needs to know your exact location, but when do we ever have two shuttles close together?

There must be some mistake. I still cannot call my vehicle out wihtout a camp. Sure to god this issue can be easily fixable and should be done. Glad you guys had a decent vacation but this is an insane item.

Whats up with musician. We have not gotten anything that is worth anything at all.

Omni/Nal don't work unless targeted which makes the interface completely confusing.

Can we get an actual eta on new songs instruments etc. Most other Professions have received upgrades to animatioin and we are still stuck with the same non user friendly interface.

I am really kinda of peeved and I hate feeling this way but there has been little communication about whats going on and the communication you guys have given us basically said "New Songs comin' we just don't know when" so thats it... major issues with the Profession and you all are just gonna through some songs at us...

I guess I should shut up... at least ur giving us that... grumble... grumble...

I like the profession and have been playin' it since I join in July...grumble... I just wish we werent constantly over looked...grumble.

Just my 2 cents,

Not to beat a dead horse of anything but see this thread about what other musicians are feeling...

I am really not the only one. And If you look all of these people have been avid fans of the game.

I hope that doing this is ok. I just wanna be heard. Thanks

Is there anyway that maybe a mission could be added to theme parks, so that those of us that finished them before the badges went in, can go back and get those badges?

Thanks.

COMMANDO:

Tactics: Grenades needto befixed. We need more defense mods, becausewe have 1/3 of the power of a MTKA but we use like 4 times the number of skill points.

Heavy Weapons: need to have resources lowered and/or (this is a must though) We need recharge packs for the weapons. Like a droid battery or power-up. Just when its empty, click and hold the appropriate shell/ammo and drop it into the weapon.

Flame Thrower: fine

Heavy Acid Rifle: Needs to be fixed so that poisen/acid actually applies (needs to work, cause it is broken currently)

LATER:

HAR and FT tree should be combined to make a LP tree with pistol moves (ie: KD, Dizzy, Confuse, etc)

HAR should have ideal/max range extended to 64m (specials work at 64m) (rifle) (acid)

FT shouldhave ideal range at32m, max at 64m (specials work at 32m) (carbine) (heat)

LP should have ideal range at 18m, max at 64m (specials work at 18m) (pistol) (blast)

we also need the Beam Cannon, to be certified at master (energy) and do massive damage at far distances and have a 5.0min speed (like a uber charged rifle that can be used as a pistol and carbine)

thats it, thanks!
