My findings from TC (All I do is pvp btw )

  • Interface (Grey/silver bulk) is annoying along with the tiny radar. A more customizable UI would be nice. Especially tricky for pvp when you are constantly looking at the radar.

  • More lag? I don't see many people around me but I am getting lag spikes.

  • The Junk Dealer words on the overhead map are repeated about 6-7 times, filling it up. Someone said a few posts up about it being a bugged cluster.

  • When someone is loading in overt (As in you can't attack them yet) and you left click on them, it sends a trade request.

  • Combat is a better speed and it seems ok for pvp.

  • The elemental effects are nice along with the Glancing Blows and Critical Hits.

  • The character head turns when you mouse-over a target - Is this working as intended? Looks a bit odd, like it does on live.

  • When I hit someone with a BH snare, the snare effect icon doesn't appear under their Health and Action bars when targetted. Is this working as intended?

  • Still getting stuck in combat when I'm not actually in combat. I have to call a bike and mount it to break the combat music and flashing red icon.

  • Its difficult to target another player. Seems to be confusion with mouse-over target and intended target.

I'm on TC now pvping and testing, will report back soon.

Since a dev is around here-

Do you really need to focus all on combat? I mean, really, the community was kept alive by CH's, scouts rangers ect. A bunch of lone grinders clicking madlessly until they level isnt considared a community.
Also, scout is star warsey. What was chewbacca, a commando?
And you should know that everyone doesn't like NGE.

Camping is fun and social. Maybe let us drop camps again and if you stay in one for a certain period of time you get an XP bonus...or something

Oo, there were a lot of great things about camping. Besides the Hang Out aspects of camping, and having a place to take a break when grinding (Funnest in groups) It was great using for Outposts during raids, or defense, grinding in groups, not to mention it use to help with healing and pulling out vehicles and getting rid of battle fatigue. I'm sure you could find some other uses for it in the NGE system.

Thanks Helios!
Without TC notes posted when the changes went up, there has been a lot of speculation. Couple this with further speculation on the upcoming expertise system, and people boil over with worrys that any bugs on TC are "working as intended".
Im glad you cleared up a few things.
(Collective -whew- from the Spy community)
Thanks again!

There needs to be some bonus from camping as well as the social aspect. Like I said above, maybe by spending a certain amount of time in a camp you gain a small XP buff.

This should be it's own thread. Everyone has a differant reason why they liked camps.

Me I liked camps because they could be used to set up a base area for fights, missions, or just Rp factor. They also gave us a regroup area for players that died durring a mission. A side use I had for them was if I got caught out in the wild durring a server shut down, it gave me a place to feel safe about logging out of.

Okay Helios, let me sum it up a bit. Let's say you were out with your friends for a few hours fighting mobs, doing missions, and you all just need a break. Why not find a nice spot and pop a camp kit? Maybe take out the pets and let them stretch their legs, eh? It was a great idea. We all loved it. I had an AWESOME reply to this, but the forums HTML thing deleted it all . Please fix that my heart sank when I saw all that work I made for this reply go BOOM.

 

We loved camping because, rather go to a cantina and stare at a blank wall, we could go out, find a spot in the mountains, maybe a nice spot in a secluded river in the Corellian woods, and pop a tent and chill in the convienent chairs you supplied us. We loved it. Everyone loved it. You guys focus too much on the combat. You forget how much we love little things like that. Did you ever pop a tent over a mountain in Corellia and just admire the massive view you have? It's great, man. I would kill to see every ranger camp kit back in game (I hear some are bugged, be sure to revise!). Maybe you could do some weather damage. Make it so a sand storm does a health dot, some debuffs... snaring. Camp kits cure it. Basic only does health dot, the moderate does half the debuff, and high tech field base kit cures all of it. It's a great concept.

Consider it! We all REALLY would love to see the return of our dear camp kits. This isn't as good as my old reply I had that got deleted, but hey, you see the picture. Please, Helios.
