A while back I put my dark jedi knight on the back burner shortly after it became impossible to advance in the FRS and FR was nerfed. I've been reading the current top 5 list and logged on a little bit, but hoping the jedi community can give some honest input on whether or not it is worth coming back. From my initial observations it seems that the xp loss has been increased significantly, load ganking is now happening at starports, the gtef is still a problem,armor holes and combat inactivity bugs have popped upand no real improvements have been made to jedi (aside from the cloaks, which I must say look good). I had been hoping that with JTL coming out that the focus would get back on the core game and fixing many of the bugs and issues players have talked about for months. Just wondering what the impression from the jedi community is, and whether or not you are playing your jedi much these days. Is the only way to play a knight at this point to accept the fact that with potential xp losses of 700k, you will more than likely reach the negative cap, accept it and never be able to retemplate? I've kept my account active, but it seems even after 2 months away from the game, it is in a worse state now. JTL hasn't impressed me much, and was really hoping the ground game would get the attention it deserves, and jedi would be fixed. Is this happening or are my impressions from this forum correct that jedi is still in a terrible state? Thanks for your input, I appreciate any advice those who have active jedi can give.

I personally wouldn'trecommend coming back unless you have really high hopes for the combat/gcw revamps and don't mind waiting around for them to go live.

Simply put not really
Gtef and gank squad'sis still fotm warcry is still broken there are more bh than ever and the xp loss is severe and the frs is still broken.
My account ran out yesterday but iam going to keep a eye on the board's and if they ever fix the core thing's in the game it will be worth playing again but as it stand's unless you want to play a very buggy exspansion the ground game is not worth playing asa jedi as they have pretty much made it impossible to do so and have fun.

wait and watch when the combat revamp happens. See what gets posted and then repost the question and decide from there.

Wait for revamp, then eBay your DJK for much dollars, and then buy a good game like WoW

After leaving with complete distate for this game and no real hope of any change just beffore JTLS came out is their any real point in joing its up to you to convince me either way when I left I was master BH/Carbineer and Master bounty hunter had nothing to offer and jedi where rapent. Been playing another MMORPG game as of late based on a very popular stratergy series which is ammazingly good fun but i would like somthing else to distract me when i get bored, Is SWG better now or should i venture into the world of evercrack 2.

well I came back after a year and I already see a big difference but taking me awhile to relearn everything. Heck I say play for 1 month and see, just 15 and if you do not like cancel. I currenly play wow and started this back up to see what all the fuss was about on the CU and ofcourse the 2 new expansions that I yet to see. Give it a shot and see

Well, non jedi are worthless in PVP and the GCW, all the cool stuff from all the other professions were stripped away and givent to jedi, like tanking, healing etc. Jedi is now the only viable profession to play in SWG and being a bh is 95% about clicking a refresh button over and over, wasting droids and jedi have more exploits than they ever had before.
So i would say dont come back. The game is in the worst shape it has ever been in and there are just more nerfs coming down the pipe for us.

Nothing has changed. SoE is still the same. You either hate it or learn to live with it. Chances are if you didn't like it before, you will not like it now.

I came back after about a year. CU is good. There are even more Jedi but ranged does alot better against them. I still havent decided if it's worth playing. Chances are I'll go back to PlanetSide full time instead of playing both.
