Do you ever wonder if George Lucas reads the forums? You know, drops in just to see how things are going...

I rather doubt GL has cared about this game since the after the first 3-4 months after launch. I mean, if he knew about the holocron noncense at christmas and all that jazz, he'd roll over in his...well, whatever - he'd be pissed!


I think the devs are a bunch of caring people who really do want to keep things in order, it's Sony and the stockholders making the stupid mistakes (think Dilbert with the evil marketing department.)


GL = Good

Devs = Good

SOE = Bad

Actually any major design change concerning iconic Star Wars elements (such as Jedi or introduction of space combat or the Wookiee world) has to be approved by Lucas Arts as far as I know. That of course doesnt mean George Lucas himself reads the proposals. But you can bet publish 9 was approved by LA as well as the Holocron christmas gifts.

i agree... its obvious this game was rushed out. i spoke with the network guy in my office (who dabbles in coding) and he says that usually somthing with bugs is because someone higher up sees the costs mounting and the competition approaching. think about it though... around the slated release for SWG... wow was being talked about... so SOE jumped and said "release now and well have total control of the market!"


as he puts it... coders actually take pride in making great stuff... so they likely kicked and screamed for a later release date.

It;'s because GL HAS the big bucks that he could check in. He hires someone to count it for him, and someone else to keep an eye on the counter.


Besides, the people at SOE shouldn't worry about GL comming into the Forums. all the griping is attention, and that means that we care about the game, whivh is what he wants. What they should worry about is, while his accountant is counting, and his watchdog is watching, and GL is getting bored playing with his Luke Skywalker Lightsaber Prob, what if he gets bored enough to PLAY the game and see for himself what all the bitching is about.


THEN they'd have problems.


And If I were as rich as GL, I'd be SURE to check carefully on everything that made me any money at all.


You never know, since GL wouldn't sign into the game or the forums under the screen name " Hi-I'm-the-boss-better-watch-out", he's pick soem name like mine, or yours. And he's act like a newbie, just to be sure no one would know who he is. And no one ever would.
