20 min queue

The game is pretty much dead though

Which server?

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Read the Q&A's from PAX East. Server/Char transfers coming soon after 1.2.

Starting with Asia/Pac first then the rest of us.

Forstclaw is busy but ToFN is crazy busy and it really does makes a big difference!

A shame it has taken this long. Anyone stuck on a quite server is much more likely to leave than re-roll on a busy server, I know I would.

 

[CaptainRAVE]

So i think we can safely say TDR is completely dead, the past week the maximum ive seen on is two people who the proceeded to quickly leave. kinda sad.

There were some good folks in there. Had a blast teaming with them. I can understand why so many have moved on though.

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Did they nerf Slicing?

Yes, ages and ages ago.

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Free game time already? Yikes.

Then again, it is a fair decision. It has been a bumpy few months.

Might check this out again down the line.

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Bioware have now changed their stance on the matter....

http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=410458


Basically, everyone who has a Level 50 OR reaches Legacy Level 6 by the 22nd April will receive the 30 days free. (you only get 1 x 30 days, not one for a Lv50 & Legacy 6)

Fair play to them for changing it as they didn't have too, but a bit of good PR will help smooth over the 1.2 escapade

Seems likely that this is what they had planned anyway. Should give a fair few people incentive to play over the next few days.

Updated the first post with your new location

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Are server transfers available yet?

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Crazy that it has taken this long for transfers. I wonder what the subs are like now. I can't imagine it is anywhere near as successful as they were expecting.

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Just saw a video on update 1.3. The new group finder looks pretty decent.

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Hopefully server xfers will be here by the end of June, can't see myself continuing if they're not. Currently 12 people on the fleet : /

Yikes, not many at all considering it is the weekend. Which server are you on?

 

[CaptainRAVE]

New level cap? I think they have a lot to sort before they raise the level cap!

 

[CaptainRAVE]

The only way I would play this again is if it went F2P tbh - so fingers crossed

What a giant screw up though, especially considering how much money they put into this.

The time when MMOs could make a lot of money is long gone. EA and Bioware were too quick to make money on this, too slow to release it with th inability to listen to user feedback. I don't know why they even bothered with a beta, they ignored most of our comments.

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Hmm, was considering getting this, but looking at what everyone over the last few pages have said, I'm not so sure it's worth it now....

kd

Try it for yourself...isn't it free for the first few levels now? A lot of people have made these comments aft putting many, many hours into the game (including myself).

 

[CaptainRAVE]

FUUU, arent back to 30min queues every night are we?!

Lol, someone always complains either way

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Really tempted to get back on Frostclaw. Will see what comes up in the Steam sale and will the decide.

 

[CaptainRAVE]

It will be a ghost town as everyone moved to The Nightmare Lands!

Why did they all go and do that

Frostclaw was a great server when I left it, what happened!

 

[CaptainRAVE]

That is a shame, it had an excellent community when I was there

 

[CaptainRAVE]

As if by magic, after asking if there was a free return to SWTOR promotion:

http://www.swtor.com/alliespromotion

Thanks for posting, might actually give it a whirl again!

Edit: Seem to have misplaced my security key generator. This could get frustrating...

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Sucks. Apparently you have to have completed one billing cycle. So the fact that I only played Between December and January, and quit after the 30 days free, means I cannot try 1.3 with this free 7 day promotion :/

Not happy at all.

Neither did I - I am glad you posted that, saves me hunting for my security key generator!

Oh well, their loss. Stupid decision on their part though.
