Amazing job guys! May the force be with you all
Amazing job guys! May the force be with you all
I remember the first time I created an account on one of the emu forums so many years ago. It was 2006 I think, and I was missing the old game so much I could hardly stand to log into that NGE garbage. The NGE got better over time, but the lack of Teras Kasi and Jedi that didn't totally suck kept me wishing SOE had never got their back stabbing hands on it. I spent countless hours helping people come up with ideas on how to run a server, mainly event planning. I had pages of stuff wrote up that everybody was exited about. We thought we would be playing that stuff in a year or two. Honestly, if I had known then that 10 years would go by and it still wasn't finished, I would have never made a single comment. 10 years is an insane amount of time to spend fixing anything, let alone a game. Entire towns have been built in the time spent on this. I am amazed at the number of people still working so hard to make this dream come true.
I come here once or twice a year to check on things. It seemed for a long while that no progress was being made at all, outside of a few little fixes here and there. Little did I know that much was being done that simply wasn't getting posted because it wasn't finished yet. Now I log in and read that all professions except one are in. I read that AI and other things are complete and working well. After so many years of dreaming, and thinking I would never play again, I now have hope. I only wish I could help in the programming and code writing. My hat is off to all that have worked so hard for so long to make this dream a reality. Thank you for this.
With that said, I just wanna say: I hope I get the chance to craft again. As long as I can chase high end resources and create some of the best weapons and armor on the server, I will be a very happy gamer. I did it for years and it gave me as much satisfaction as any combat profession. Crafting is the real game. Weapons, Armor, Clothing, Food and so many other items are simply the end result of crafting. THAT, is why this is the best game ever. Any game can offer loot, but where else can you go to get a game that would be absolutely dead without crafters? NOWHERE. SWG was and still is the best game ever produced. I hope I live long enough to see this done.
I have been following this project since the first year it started. I remember logging in some years ago and everybody was testing at Dantooine, there were about 50 of us. So basic. We really could only spam basic attacks and most of us had red sabers cause that's about all we had lol. I lost my game discs a long time ago. I got some new ones on Ebay about 30 minutes ago. I am working on building a new desktop so I can play again. This post has put a fire under my butt. I love all of you that have worked so hard to bring this back. My dream is to have my own server and a few friends playing it with me. I will play the main server of course, and maybe check out a few others. I just love this game. I think it's the best game ever produced, and I have played a ton of games in the last 35 years
I remember when all we had was pong!
The week before last my husband was talking about how he had read that a group of programmers were trying to get SWG back online but they hadn't made any progress. So I did my own search and found SWGEMU. I broke out my Collectors Edition and got busy installing. I played on Chilastra, our guild was < EoV > I stayed when everyone in our guild left for WoW... Eventually I left too, but SWG always had a special place in my heart. Then one day I found an odd message in my inbox from SOE inviting me back for 1 month free to try out the NGE. It was just so terrible, My prepatch gurrecks were destroyed, everything my character had worked for was gone (she was a master creature handler/rifleman). The only thing that I liked was the updated skins, other than that SOE absolutely killed one of the best games I had played.
I've been playing for only a few days and I have to say... you guys are doing a great job!
Hello,
Thanks for all the efforts you have made to bring back this awesome game. I used to play SWG alot back in the day, I tested out SWGemu a while back too, but did not want to stay becouse I had a feeling it would fail and I would be dissapointed. Now seeing that the swgemu project is still going strong I am going to have to apologize for not believing in this. Awesome job guys. I will try to donate whenever I can from now on.

It's difficult for me to express in short how much I appreciate what the SWG has done and is continually doing for this community.
Thanks everyone - the devs & staff, testers and players! There isn't a game like this one. This one is special.
A decade in the making, and it's shaping into a masterpiece! Thanks is an understatement!!

Thank you so much to the Emu team for the effort and results in 2014. I cannot believe how far you have all come with this project.
Now tell me more about that Terran editor?! Wtf is that!?
Once again thanks to everyone who uses their free time to work on this project, which allows me to spend some of my free time in the game I love
Thank you for all the hard work, and time. I miss everyone.
Yes its really me

Pretty good, working and raising a family. Staying busy. I had to come check on things and was happily surprised. How have you been? Lots of new faces around.
We have a great team, we are drama free and we've been making some giant steps towards our goal. So its all good in SWGEmu land.
Thats the best news I think I could have heard. So proud of you guys. I been playing some, I am enjoying myself again also. So thank you to everyone for everything.
I knew I could pull you from the darkness, how are you my old friend?

Old faces are still here too. Just watching from the shadows.
