I think this was one of the things on our wish/issues list from the past. It could be that the dev team is just catching up with the things we wanted on the old list. It would be interesting to see how many of our top issues were/are bieing addressed.

Keep posting those screenshots. That razor cat is just the coolest thing - and I usually hate having cats as pets in the game. I'm still grinding my new character up to BE/CH - but these screenshots are really making me want to finish up as fast as I can.


I just hope this is intended, and doesn't get "fixed".

I remember when Gurrecks used to be as tall as houses, they nerfed em down to people size.

I'm so glad the ability is back with a scaled system.

May I say something as a CH of long-standing? I have worked most creatures in game from the large cowardly gurrek and Greater Sludge Panther through to a datapad full of mainly BE cats. I chose the BE ones for their variety and their invariably smaller size. Many of the places I hunt require the smaller pet or they obstruct view and annoy the others in group. So although many of the BE's may like this change in size matching cl - some of the CH may not be so enthusiastic unless it is just for the "cool" look. I can only speak for myself but it may be interesting to have opinions from others too. Or maybe a size capping able to be triggered by the ch when pet had reached proportions suitable for that individual? Then those who wanted huge pets could allow them to grow bigger.

I just wonder how big a CL70 Kimo will get? Feet as big as Coronet? Guess naming him Godzilla will be appropriate (sp?)

When you drop a pet deed in a house now, does the pet show up as the new giant or tiny size, or is it just the generic size skin as before. I never was into using pets as decoration, but if I could put a little army of creatures onthe gamingtable - that would be pretty cool.

Dropping deeds shows the generic size. I thought of that too, it would be cool. Oh well.

I tamed a VERY old BE pet today and it was teeny teeny tiny. So whatever is happening, skins or CL, it affects even old pets.

Back before I left SWG in mid 2003 making deed pets as house decorations was a viable buisness (one of the few.. but hey we were trying to find as many uses as possible). Now that I am back and relearning everything, it hit me that if we could actually make 'sized' deed pets (with colors no less) it would be fantastic.


Then I saw this post.... ah well it was a good idea. Maybe.. .just maybe it's something they just haven't gotten around to fixing yet. (shrug) Ah well.
