They delayed the patch until tomorrow. (Originally it was delayed until today.) I really hope they get whatever problems they're having with it fixed before release. I can only hope Austin listened to anger and feedback about the traitor and are using this time to change it. Probably not, though. Just wishful thinking.

I am full of it myself. Which is a bit surprising considering how many times SWTOR has disappointed me already.

I don't have a real investment but I just don't like the spoiler if it comes true.

I've been a sub since launch, but now more than ever (even through the KOTFE/KOTET nonsense) it seems like they've completely lost what it was that made the game good in the first place. Class stories and companions are what drew me to the game. I understand why they can no longer do the class stories, but I do not understand why they whittled it down to one story fits all. It just doesn't work that well. I'm also displeased with how companions have been handled. From having them taken away for so long, to the reunions being better for some than others. I also hate that unless it's Lana/Theron (even though I like them both) you no longer hear a word from comps. They're just decorations anymore. As for the whole betrayer thing...I'm going to wait and see. It could be very good, or very very bad.

It feels like Austin had no long term plan for the game. They should have anticipated that after the class stories, people would want to see their companions in future expansions.

Im a new subscriber, only started sub this month, not bad overall the content of the class stories, and since Im so slow at playing, I have still a lot to play with, but yeah Im just mostly disappointed on the romance front. I mean I knew it was going to be like that cuz star wars, but its a bit bothersome when there's so many romance options in just one career path without dlc, but only straight.

Yeah, there is nothing for s/s romances in vanilla. If you are a straight dude though, you get multiple choices for some classes. Plus flings. The stories are so much fun, I enjoyed them all. (Some more than others) Lana/Theron/Koth are all pretty great (Lana/Theron get more screen time in general) so it takes a little bit of the sting out of having to wait so long.

My game is almost patched. I was hoping the update would have been delayed a few more days, so I could put this off as long as possible. I can't believe Bioware is making me grind this flashpoint multiple times to get a stupid train when it is a painful storyline no doubt for those that romanced You-Know-Who.

So the only way to get the new SH is to do the fp? UGH!!!!!!! Please tell me there is a solo mode?

An old post by a dev said you need to run it TEN times to get enough currency to buy the key for the SH.

I just started the story mode, like continuing the story for the Umbara flashpoint... and, well, I am already SUPER upset. WTF. I just... this is frustrating. Why would they give me a Flirt option with Theron at the beginning? He just said he would do ANYTHING to protect me. Fuck that, he is going to betray me in like 20 mins...

I want to do it for the first time on my slinger that romanced Theron . Stuck on the part where you have to fight the three droids with the walker though. I gave up after 8 tries last night.

This was utter bullshit. Plain and simple. It makes no sense for a LS Commander storyline. Sorry, Bioware, ya dun gone fucked up.

Found this on tumblr. At least Lana is nice and all that. Might give it a go on my vanguard who romanced Lana. Otherwise... welp, lmao, my BH, agent and basically all male chars are fucked. Gj, Biowur.

Also, they also basically fucked big part of their female auditory, bc really few people like Koth, other companions have 0.1% content so Theron was a way to go.
Idiots. Just... idiots.

I agree. I'm glad I have a new game coming out in two weeks. Not renewing my sub. Bioware has let me down considerably. It is not worth my time. Star Wars has always been a massive part of my idenity, and it wasn't until Makeb and Shadow of Revan, I was allowed to have any m/m content. Now, all of that is gone, and I feel like shit, as usual. This update makes zero sense for anyone Lightside.

Did anyone else get motion sickness from that fp? I've never wanted to puke from a game before.
