In 1.3 -
Being warned about the ewoks ( me being imperial ), and pushing my luck anyway. i just wanted to get close enough to get a good look at one. i could tell they were watching me as I could see them move a little , and reposition. I tried gassing them with biotic grenades after they didnt fall for my bait of cookies and fruit , I died , they got the cookies and fruit ... and my blaster.

Um, now I pull my R2 out and then pilot the AT-ST to get free grenade reloads ( If you fire only 1 or 2 the droid will reload you swiftly- unlike if you fire 3 and wait half and hour for new ones)

Usually when I get revived and thank the medic, I get shot while I'm in the voice chat window. XD

A couple of times I have been revived and then gone to say "thank you" on the VO commands and messed up and shot the medic, and sometimes even dropped a grenade right in the middle of my own squad, as a result.

I remember it took me awhile to realize the astromechs only supplied ammo. Especially since they had a small wrench icon over them and not something resembling an ammo pack or even a handheld gun.

That's called keeping the mod balanced and harboring teamwork.

Usually my dumb moments involve trying to sneak up on someone to stab them, then they turn around and shoot me, making me wish I just shotgun'd them instead.

Provide ammo.

I thought they did? Hmm...So what do the support droids do?

Droids don't repair vehicles. Was a bug with the icons that has actually been fixed in this upcoming 1.3 patch. I also didn't get a TK credit as I realised and stopped firing before you died, only to watch you get gunned down by an imp seconds later.

Common guys...Whats with all the hatin'? I remember that Jay, and at the moment I was kind of pissed, and if you remember, I went over and stabbed you to get even.

Woodrow, I don't remember the TK, though I do remember you almost constantly changing teams and plenty of damn mortar fire. And yes, YOU STOLE MY TANK!!! But everyone who repairs their droid isn't statpadding you know. If you don't want people EVER repairing them, then perhaps make it so the don't take so much damn damage (lol, damn damage) when following you, especially if you're in a vehicle. Cause one of my favorite tactics if I feel like taking a vehicle is going support with the droid so I can always be repaired.

Anyways, the best stupid thing I can remember is on Convoy raid on Friday, myself and a few others were trying to take out the rebel frigate and I didn't even notice we were down to 1 cap ship...Ahh my stupidity.

When I threw a grenade at a friendly squad to test if ff was on.

I accidentally lit up TIEPilot with my Packard Mortar Gun the other night after swapping teams and forgetting that rebels were suddenly my friend. I think he's also kind of mad at me for accusing him of statpadding and stealing his tank too....
