/agree
And one more questions my customers ask me: what will happen to composite armor parts with attachments/ADK if people coudn't use it anymore? Ok, you can destroy armor and get your ADK back, but what if there is some really expensive AA's in it?
We all know that many people invested all money in speed and other tapes, one of my friends spend 50 mil for rifle
AA's.

Time for the master communicators at SOE to start talking.
We are less than a month away from "Live" and SOE is still acting like the Evil Dungeon Masters by keeping us in the dark. Really, how much "advantage" can players take if we get some anwers a few weeks before live? I thought SOE would change with all the competition but they seem stuck in their ways.
The devs need to consider allowing for a one time conversion from composite to battle armor or recon armor so that toons don't have ALL their tapes trashed. I understand that most will be worthless anyway, but a conversion would ease the pain.

I would actually prefer if they would allow the removal of tapes from armor, I don't think this would be hard to do basicly just a "dissassemble armor" option to all converted armor to get your AAs back. I have a feeling that the conversion isn't going to go as smoothly as they claim it will, and most of us are going to want new armor after the CU I think.

Ok, I posted this on the PIkeman boards (one of my toons is a Master Pike because I ENJOY it) dealing with SEAs. Please refer to this post in other boards where you have alts in those professions. If we get enough people demanding answers to these questions then there is a chance that the Devs will give us some hard facts on them.
Here's the link in non-clicky form so you can copy/paste it:

Ya, the main problem with that statment is that everyone has different ideas of what good armor is. I'm real leary of that statement....

I'm interested in actual numbers for the conversion.
Will the % experimented convert to the same % experimented post CU.
Will 1 max effectivness kinetic layer pre-CU = the same after the CU.
Will crates convert
Will Schematics convert and still be viable for use
How will pre-CU armor compair to post CU armor based on experimented numbers.
The big question:
Will pre-CU armor be converted without a certification for use since it would alienate people who have spent the money for the "best". Similar example would be prenerf republic blasters.

Actually, I think the fact is they're still programming how the change will work. Thus, if they announce exactly how it will work now, and for some reason need to change it before live, they'll be blasted for 'lying'. There's no doubt about this, it's happened enough in the past in both this game and others they should know this.

God I hope that means they're doing damage control, because I've been with this game since August 2003, but right now I'm thinking spring will see me outside and $45 richer every months. (3 accounts)

With all the things that are changing I find it really disapointing that we are still not getting any information from the devs
Just little blurps and bits but nothing really in a lot of core places that are in the dark.
