At least she had something to do.


QFMFE.

I did not tell you guys to keep Entertainer as an ICONIC profession in the game. That was purely and absolutely your decision. You want to cop out now and not give us anything to do, crack jokes about how useless we are, it's fine.

But you guys have the useless profession and are doing nothing about it. There's a word for that.

It's called "sucks."

YOu are only useless because they made you useless

 

Also since we are talkign about Star Warsy and Iconic, I cannot remember anythin g even hinting at the Duke boys in SW but yet in the legacy quest there is that refrence?

Yeah great job on that one!!  I cant find yoda anywhere but there is Daisy Mae in Mos Espa YAY

  • Since I havent had one question directly answered by a dev yet I will try to compose a collection of my questions:

1. Will we see Secondary professions such as rifleman,pike,tk,sword,carbineer,pistols,fencer incorporated into Iconic speacialization?

2. Jedi has been seperated by dark and light in the movies and same pre-nge is there a timetable in which we will see light jedi/dark jedi? Will the enclaves have purpose?

3. Will we ever be able to use the old UI layouts where we can resize our radar, add a second toolbar?

4. Will there be a new system in which we can change our professions without the use of respec or deletion?

5. Can we be given polls so we can have an alternate means to communicate to you, as well with more dev chat sessions so the players arent ignored and the Devs are not bombarded by questions like this and can focus on certain aspects that need changing?

Hi everyone,

Lots of talk about the "secret" project which really isn't a secret anymore. We are doing a playable demo for E3 and Swede is working on the team that is putting that together. The project is actually going to be larger then just the demo and become a new themepark with a GCW theme (lots of Rebels v. Imperials) to it, which will be put into the game in publish 29.

The intention of this themepark is to cover our bases with E3 and develope a new set of repeatable, high end content for all of you.

The expansion team, which is no more, is now working on nothing but high end content that will be sent out in our regular publishes.

Thanks SpaceRancor! PLEASE tell me this GCW content will be for both PvE and PvP GCW participants...



That is just the High End Content that will be coming out for Publish 29. We want to do alot of different types of content for people to do at the high ends. Some of them would be things like class specific story arc missions, new dungeons similar to the DWB, PvP battlefields, GCW ranks and rewards systems, etc. Basically, we really want to give our high end players a lot of different choices of what they want to do when they log in.

SpaceRancor



Thanks SpaceRancor. Does this mean the new GCW themepark will be for PvPers only? Are CL90 PvErs not considered High End Content?



The GCW to me is setting up conflict between Rebels and Imperials. This doesn't always mean PvP content. Sometimes it will and sometimes it will not. The current plan for the upcoming themepark is to give PvE missions in a PvP environment. For expample, players might be asked to stop the enemy forces from taking a piece of land. When they enter the area where this is going to take place they are flagged PvP. They may or may not ever fight other players but they are put in that situation. But this is one of the aspects of the upcoming GCW themepark, it will have other aspects. Of course, future publishes will focus sololy on the PvE players and some will focus completely on the PvP player.

  1. Will Smuggler's be able to Smuggle (i mean ACTUAL Smuggle) Publish 31.  We'll determine what 'smuggling' actually means. - ChrisCao
  2. Are you going to get an "actual" SIG??? (Smed this is to you.. btw)
  3. What are your thoughts on this Idea: {PLUG: My idea for LS Crafting}?? I have recieved a response from Ex-Lord TH & Dev_Mercy on this... curious as to what the others think...
  4. Any chance you could put in a "good" word for me, in the Galatic Senate Program? Word - ChrisCao (for some reason... i'm afraid... but i hope i become a Galatic Senator)
  5. Need CLARIFICATION on what "Respec NPCs" means...  Still wondering if CL's comes into play (Currently we'll get a free Respec from the NPC, but then it will cost Credits (100K - 25 Mill (hopefully that will be reduced in price))
  6. Need Info on the XP Situation... They are looking into an "Increase" in XP from Wild Spawns... However we (Community) don't know how much of an Increase it'll be...

Yes.  The Entertainer in the movie got eaten.

Note that we're also revamping those features that players find fun but that may not clearly be iconic SW activities.  In Publish 28, we start to adapt Entertainers.

Please also note said Entertainer got eaten by the tame PET of a Creature Handler who was there as well.

nobody takes those things seriously, the questions are so obviously vetted first and if a difficult one does go through it gets shunted with an answer that sounds like a copy and paste post. 




ok maybe those are filtered.. but I don't think we try to get the hard questions removed. It's filtered because there are so many questions.

We are doing a tour of 6 cities where there will be ample opportunities for you to talk directly to us (I'm going to a few myself) in person.

I won't even bring my bulletproof vest (although admittedly we aren't going to any states where the concealed carry permits are given out like candy)

Does that leave out Austin?

I'm working my way up Bachelors of Computer Science, and then to computer graphics / programming.

I'm just assuming Austin is one of them. If it's not, we'll do one there anyways.

I'm not going to get into the argument of what is and what isn't a SW game.  I will, however, state for the record that there are some elements that more clearly fit into the SW universe than others.  In fact, I'll go so far as to say that there are some elements that are objectively more SW than others. 

We're going to put the stuff that's clearly SW in first.  We're going to modify or retrofit the best of what was fun but not completely SW in second.  We're going to remove or eliminate those things that clearly aren't SW.

And, we're going to do it all at a pace that ensures quality and fun.

You're out of time, SOE The whole 2.5 months shouldn't have been. The game was fine up until Nov 15th. If the CU was worked on, instead of devoting time to the NGE (including the many months prior to November), the game could possibly be totally bug free by now.

My account cancels on 2nd Feb, which was a waste as only played game for 1 day to get the life day gifts, will be resubbing when creature handler, Bio-engineer, scout, and ranger return, oh and the FS village.

All I want is Fencer back the way it use to be even TK or just a straight up Melee that can use all the melee weapons - NOT JEDI!  Jedi is dumb.  Pre-CU we had everything we wanted we had prof.  Choice we could change skills any time we had the community all together with buff lines we had mass PVP.  We had people who were loot hunters we had people who adventured to distant places.  The game was amazing.  There was much I did not see in 2 years of playing.  I wont be seeing any more of it either.  The NGE ruined my playing experience as well and the CU.  When I respeced from my fav lvl with the CU it hit me to a lvl 61.  I was a full temp Pre-CU and loved it.  We had entertainers who loved to entertain we had packed Player Cities we had it all before the NGE.  Why cant you understand this?
