Moley, spending your time knocking on people who want to get the most out of a game they are paying for I see. Not one of these complaints are about getting freebies. Each and everyone of these people are willing to work for access to a character typethat they have every right to get. Like myself, most of the complaints are by people who have been playing the game since launch. They recognize that there are worst things in life than getting jerked around in a video game. However, they have been paying for a service with their money that they work for. See, they work for their money. They shouldn't have to pay someone money and get promised something in return just to be taken advange of and have more money taken from them. They were promised that if they have patience that they would no longer have to grind for hours on end to gain access to a character that they pay for just like those who were fortunate to get that character before everything changed. The pre pub 10 unlockers had to grind out alot of profession types to gain access to a character that they pay for. Those who grinded day in and day out for a year, but didn't unlock now have to continue to grind for another year on top of the year they have spent grinding. OK so the system didn't go quest it went grind again, and some will be able to do that and it's no big deal. But then they see what it takes to grind to become a Jedi. It takes far greater an amount of grinding than it did before. So greater that they have to grind an additional 16-32 character totals.

So basically they are starting from scratch. They just spent a year grinding prof after prof and were told that they didn't need to do that anymore because grinding was going to stop. Well from what I just checked I see that now all of the grinding they did is now thrown out the window and they need to do it all over again plus additional grinding. We don't mind working for our Jedi, but now we have to work twice as hard if not three times as hard as those who unlocked pre pub 10. So say you ran a marathon, but when you crossed the finish line the judges say they made a mistake. They say you don't have to run a marathon any more. You feel better knowing you don't have to run a marathon again. See the judges said you didn't have to run a marathon anymore, but instead after completing the marathon you now have to run 36 more miles to finish. A marathon is around 26.2 miles. So now they have to run 62.2 miles total. So those people who grinded a year now have to grind another year and a half and have to pay someone to allow them to do it. Again they don't mind having to work at it, but this is borderline obscene. So our other option is to stop paying them and close our accounts or not get a character type that we pay for and just go back and fight in a GCW, oh wait the devs took that away too. Moley, bring on your complaints about me whining, I'd love it. Please knock me down, please I beg you to.

Why is it that i do the heightened senses quest, to find that there is nothing in it that helps a doctor. The modifiers that are offered in the healing group of boxes effect injury treatment but not wound treatment. Im a doctor and iam already able to build stimpack e with far more effectiveness then i really need. What we really would like is possibly some more bonus to wound treatment and/or wound treatment speed.The first quest item is a really nice item that is combat medic only. The second item has yet to mature enough to see the result.

Welcome to starwars Galaxies grinders Paradise

this game will teach you how to grind,grind and grind somemore

Newb - Grind some proffesions to get a template so you can actually do something because there is nothing else to do..

Fs -Want a jedi, well there is a wonderful grind for you to do only 17mil xp a tree and u only need 6 trees, so thats only 102mil xp to get to initiate

( 1-2 years will get you this far from scratch, so get grinding)

initiate - Now we will show you how to grind again, this time its harder.. we hope you enjoy the game so far, Grinding is wot we do best

padawan - to actually do anything with the force you will need to grind even more than ever, with the wonderful level in jedi you will need a ***Edit*** load more xp to get anywhere

knight -Need i go on ?

Alternative - you can not do it and fall behind the rest of the server so when it comes to things like pvp they will always have the advantages, so i think cancelling your accounti s the best thing to do.

Here at SOE we love to **edit** up a perfectly good game to get as many of you to leave as we can..

Don't forget GET GRINDING a jedi could be yours at only 1-2 years of your life, and by that time the game wont be played anymore and we will have a new version out..

thank you all

May patience be with you..

I have a gripe about the way the Aurilian Plant is handled:

I'll start off saying I love the concept and I would like to see more similar content, although the fact that the plant can die seems very harsh. I think a lot of people would much rather see it reach a near-death stage that is very difficult to revive it from, perhaps make it so you need some rare item (even the fruit of another plant) to revive, but make it so the plant cannot actually die and dissapear.

Another reason to make it not dissapear is for the decorative value. I'm enjoying (trying) to care for my plant, but I imagine that I'll eventually get bored with it and will not tend it as much. At that time, it would still be nice to keep my grown plant as a decoration in my house, even if it doesn't grow or bear fruit anymore. This is impossible with the current system.

Allow me to make a little comparison here...

Beta SWG - Players - "This game will be great once they fix all the bugs!"

SWG - "This game still has bugs!"

SWG (After Hologrinding was Discovered) - "Wow, I can't believe I'm still beating this dead horse!"

SWG (After more Hologrinding) - "This pump doesn't have any water in it, why am I still pumping it?"

SWG Publish 10 - "This rock that I'm hitting just isn't bleeding! Better keep trying!"

END THE GRIND

30 hours? Pfft... yeah , we all have something called LIFE if you havent heard about it, and 30 hours or Non Stop is not right, The TIme to get buffed again, Bike renewal, Foods, Money you need to gather to buy stuff, Visit starports and shuttles and People camping all the good spots!! (Geo Caves is Jedi grounds Good luck)

Also if you wanna do missions25 min for 2 missions and trip backto get more I'd say 90 Days not 30 hours!!

Hi,

yesterday I got visited by sith, but the disc I looted didnt work......I made a ticket then. Today I was visited by a second group of sith, this time everything was fine. I went to the WP and pooof..... there it goes.

Ok, tried 4-5 times, shuttled, relogged, whatever I could find what worked for others... nothing. The Waypoint is right next to a player-factory and always vanishes as soon as the camp wants to spawn.

I updated the ticket and today I got the response that they cant do nothing to help me, I shall file a /bug report.

Well, there I am. The CSR did not even read the ticket completely, cause I updated it every time and have some other issues. I am told they cant help me, but a bugreport will not help me too within the next few days, so I am stucked?

I am quite pissed by customer support these days, cause every ticket I made is closed, sometimes even when they ask me something and I have to reply, its closed..... And this time its not even read completely.

Any suggestions what to do now? I heard others have those Problems too, and CSRs move the WP then, but why the hell is the Customer Support on Gorath that crappy?

I would be happy if somebody with a red name could post something here what to do when encountering such problems, and it would be great if CSR would now what to do too.

Read ya.

Her is my dilema, I transfered from one server to another and lost my free branches. I completed 30 Professions. I was 4th Holo Silent PRE-BADGE. Then SOE said it was OK to transfer to another server without any problems.
