i have no idea if the new game will be fun. at this point i don't care. what i want to know is, why weren't we consulted?

for those who will tell me "they had focus groups!" and "there were exit polls when you cancel!", screw that. you can't make an intelligent comment if you don't know all the facts first.

here's how it should have been done.

"hey folks, we're thinking of revamping the game... again. here's what we've got, what do you think? *giant post identical to the current FAQ by tiggs* ok, your thoughts?"

then, once we had all the facts, we could have let them know what we thought. instead... we get hit with this completely out of left field and are now wondering why.

conjecture without a basic understanding of the facts is worthless.

Considering how SOE operates, what makes you think they'd start consulting us now?

My main charachter is a Creature Handler which will soon be nerfed out of exsistance;Reason Corporate America wants this game too be a two button ,point and shot Controller friendly game for the $ they can make off the masses.They used us to Beta test this game since launch and will now be putting out an online version for Xbox,PS2 and Game cube.There is no other reason for them to canabilize this system except for this reason.Even thou they don't state that is why they are doing it wait and see if it doesn't come to pass.I will be dropping this game when account runs out if they murder my pets,and am trying to get a refund for ToOw this week.My Smuggler,Shipwright pilot might still be fun to play "If I could Smuggle"But since I can't I see no reason to stick around.Corporate America has screwed the pooch.

This is simply rediculous, even for SOE. I wonder if they´ll reconsider like the last time they changed group experience when the players started to cancel en masse.

Probably not. I wonder how a single person - or a whole board of directors- could be so stupid? They don´t have time to implement the features we have been crying for for years, but they can basically devellop a whole new game? And they announce these plans one day after the release of the mustafar expansion?

This is it. I am out.

Anyone else wondering if this is the real reason why GM left?

Actually, we were consulted. Some of us anyway.

You folks remember the whole "We're having the Nielson Co. conduct surveys if you live in a small area of California and can make it down" some months ago? Or the fact that when you cancelled your account they asked you to take three minutes to fill out a survey about why you were leaving a game which has the "Star Wars" brand attached to it and should be the biggest MMORPG on the market? Or how about the fact that we were biatching and complaining about how the jebay alpha class ruined game play for us for a handful of years?

As much as we say that SOE doesn't see what we post, it'd take a blind fool with a dead seeing eye dog to miss the fact that there's a lot of unhappy people. CU didn't do it. This "Last Ditch" Revamp probably won't either. But it'll be fun to watch it all burn.
