If he bought the game at launch he's already preferred.

LOL, just by clicking that link i got a "Subscription Changed" email. No action on my part. I just happened to be logged in. Kind of shady
Yeah, it happened to me too when I used it a few weeks back from a friend. Do you have a CC on file? I'd assume you do. Just make sure it isn't set to renew or anything if you don't want to have it sub you.

Looks like every component in GSF got nerfed except for range bonuses on various ordnance which is getting doubled. Frankly all that needed nerfing to me was the gunships penetration.
I would just go arsenal. Pyro is OK, but really doesn't hold a candle to it anymore. Arsenal is great for leveling, end game pve and all pvp. It is a turret spec however.
your face is a turret spec
anyways GGs tonight, alur
1(?) loss vs however many wins that was
Yes indeed. Also furthered our hypothesis on huttball.
We played roughly 12-15 games...2 Voidstar and 1 Huttball in that stretch. The unbalanced warzone selection is wild, I think it's actually a real thing. We had a goodly amount of CW, AHG, NC, and two arenas...the rest seems forgotten.
So, on the subject of "little things"/cosmetic things - the sarlacc pit recharge/regen item is friggin' awesome. Homi pulled one out last night and I was in awe. Could just be me though. Beats my little gree cube.
I've seen them giving a different reason before, saying it was too much work and people had been showing little interest in a few existing races and cathar after release. At least that's what I recall.I'm glad I'm not the only one excitedI had a Bothan swordsman/master chef/musician. I would even consider changing my main's race to a Bothan since I'm using the same name. When I saw him during the cutscene I kind of did a double take.
Only races that speak Basic, they said the tested out having people be able to play something like a Wookie but constantly listening to growls during 100+ hours of questing got extremely annoying. They also won't add any races that can't use the default body shapes.

FP tease seems to indicate that tomorrow starts the Rakghoul event.

Yeah, there's nothing on Alderaan at the moment so it's just a tease. Tomorrow seems like a sure bet.
My body is ready (to explode).
The plagued Kaliyo looks like the worst looking cancer patient ever.
I am disappointed it isn't out yet, but they keep hinting at it on the forums so it really does seem like it could be going live any time.
Also, I'm all over
and adding
to my Korrealis collection. That strike fighter is the closest I'll ever get to the raid tank mount, unfortunately.

Well they did have the Gree event at the same time as the Life Day event. The BH event is monthly and old hat at this point.

The teasing on FB and on the dev tracker is getting annoying, most seem to expected the event today and still nothing. They better not be dragging this out till next week or much longer

Can you have a copilot in that Korrealis?

No, none of the mounts allow copilots
I dusted this game off and re-installed it and tried to play it again last night. I grabbed my lvl 35 Imperial Agent and jumped in. Either I totally forgot how to play the class and am screwing it up, or they nerfed the hell out of him. I'm squishier than a grape in summer.

Are you a Sniper or Operative? I'm assuming Sniper and if so Sniper/Gunslinger are one of the few classes that haven't really had a lot of changes aside from the shuffling of the skill trees when they raised the level cap to 55 and the new level 51 skill. They are pretty squishy but it's always hard to come back to an MMO and remember how to play. Make sure to use your defensive cooldowns, use cover and choose the right companion.
A wasted opportunity.

The flight plan I just filed with the agency list me, my men, Dr. Pavel here. But only one of you!
No worries. It was past time to end that run anyway. Pub side was beginning to turn into Turd side. We went to Imp side and did dailies and queued a few games, won all but one. Figures.
Welcome to SWTOR!
Too soon?
I caved and bought one of the new hypercrates last night. My hope was to get the mount I linked above (Kalakar Strike Fighter Simulator), and to a lesser extent the new Korrealis model. Naturally, I failed on both counts.
I got a full set of the Jori Daragon armor (chest and gloves are A+), one of the Sky Cruisers (recolored Sienar CC mount), almost a set of the new cybernetic armor, and two Dejarik tables. Also like 3x of the imp GSF ship they included in the packs. Maybe I'll at least make some creds to buy the Strike Fighter.
Moral to story: I did this again?! Why?!

I always have to hold myself back from buying a hypercrate and force myself to wait until stuff starts showing up on the GTN because sometimes the sets I want are very common and cheap.

The Jori daragon loincloth looks very weird with some armor sets on a male character.
Yeah, I got tons of the common ones. Way more than usual it seemed like this time. Maybe cause it seemed like there was slightly less items?
I dread the oncoming onslaught of dudes and dudes playing gals in underwear that is about to commence. YOLO, though, I guess!
BTW, this upcoming Operative/Scoundrel DPS buff...there's a few on JC who put out some insane damage on a very consistent basis. I realize the dots are helping this, but they do some pretty nice burst on me as a healer as well. I don't know if these few have the magic touch or what (as they are basically the only ones I see), but if it's fairly easily repeatable after the buff I'm curious how popular the spec will get. I've yet to see a smash monkey or assassin topping them in these games.
Yeah, regularly. Just two of them, with a third pretty close. They are very good, though, so I dunno how it would shake out on say a B or B+ level player. But if these dudes get a buff, it's gonna be sick for them.
Yep. I'm scared to meet those fuckers. Two of them are top tier, but there's a few more than are pretty damn good. Going to be interesting to watch. It's insane how easily they can kill me, even when I'm on my tank.
Names?
Vps and Excised are the two I've seen top the charts, Excised the most, as Vps is always healing. Excised used to play heals, didn't know he had went deeps but we played several games the other night and he was in all of them and was putting up 1 million easy to everyone else's 600-800.
You are already lost.
Sure they're not dot spammers? As much as I hate to admit it, Vas is the only scrapper that was good.
I was actually talking about Infiltrata, or whatever. He eats through my fucking Shadow tank like nothing.

Fun and quite deep. The only bummer is that there are currently one 2 maps and 1 mode.
Its really good, there's one caveat though.
You will get slaughtered initially by people as there are a good amount of people who have a played a good amount and have geared up (and there's alot of gearing in starfighter).
Him and Love still running around, actually quite a few of the old PD folks. Love was trolling our group in a double premade for no apparent reason the other night, had to have some words with him/her. Gotta love those PD folks.
Likely are dot spamming, and yes Infiltrata was the third Heysoos I just couldn't remember the name. Still yet, they are much better than I would have expected
I liked the Strike Fighter/Tauntaun/Korrealis mounts pretty well, best since the first pack IMO. The Daragon armors are a bit silly, but if you have a sage/sorcerer/shadow/assassin they fit pretty well. It did hurt having no new neat crystals. Where my all black crystal at, mane? More cybernetic armor is always good too.
Alur has been playing on Willend/Xalles, I've been playing on pretty much all my characters even though I told myself I'd concentrate on one, so I've been on (Jaycam/Jayzoos/Adcom/Norad/Marston). There's also his Starsider friends Bruta, and a couple others that will periodically join us.
