How about an "Open Invitation" to any developer to try playing a Smuggler for one-two months, rather than the standard Jedi/BH/Rebel they've admitted to in threads leaked out here and there?


I'd seriously like one or two ofthem to take a month or two, sit down, and give the profession an honest-to-goodness try, from scratch, no "god mode" or "free gear" debug codes. I know from the occational post that various "Red Names" have stated they have characters they occationally play "just for fun"... But for all the past posts of "we know smuggler needs some love right now", I've yet to hear about one playing this profession.


Alot to ask, and certianly not a petiton or "non-constructive" post, this. Just a simple suggestion from an officially recognised problem profession.


We know from FanFest commentary that corporate drives alot of the development direction, and from working in rl businesses, we know thats the way things go.But I also know sometimes, even creative departments can get their way.


Well, there it is. And if any of them do indeed spend time in this prof, be nice to know it.





An interesting idea...but if they were playing "just for fun" then why would they want to play a broken profession?

you also forget.. they're Devs... that have the "god" button. if they want to try smugler, poof,they're a master smuggler.... without having to grind anything, always have x amount of kits, yadda yadda yadda....

again, great idea.. but unless you're going to stand there with a pre-nerf flamethrower pointing at their backs, they'll go the easy way... and the one guy who dosen't, will probbably be "let go" at the end of the day...
