Stuck it out for what 3 mths now? Still we have no fixes to the basic stuff in the profession, they are nerfing us, making us less powerful than 97 pt professions and not listening at all.


The game has no content worth talking about, a miner can make a million credits a week and buy his every wish. Six ppl can kill any creature in game including krayts, dark jedi masters etc. Items other than your gun are pretty worthless, except for maybe a good helmet in pvp.


This game has no legs and the poorest developers i have ever seen, DAOC by now had full itemised dungeons and proper RVR that worked (just an example of another MMPORG launch). We have erm tonnes of lag (far more than DAOC), simple water bugs still, no content to want or need, broken professions aplenty, player economy thats not working, little or no reason to play.


Also, WHERE IS YOUR CUSTOMER SERVICE? Stop deleting the fr*gging tickets and ignoring your players. We cannot even do a /who all gm to find out if there are any on. Pathetic


See ya in WoW or EQ2, in fact Horizons beta is playing very well, it has boss mobs, rare resources and schematics for loot that only drop in mega hard dungeons and from uber mobs and has a war that actually works and affects the game. Not to mention better gfx - sounds like what SWG should have been? Early beta is playing better than SWG + 3 mths post release.

Can I have your stuff?


Anyway, seriously .. cant say I blame you. You are right on all counts. Some people (like myself) are just such big crack-heads when it comes to gaming that we refuse to admit it.


I personallly dont have much hope for EQ2 at the moment either. The glory that was Verant that Sony bought is probably a gaming history fluke or a thing of the past.


I think it's pretty safe to say that NO ONE who worked on EQ worked on SWG at all. You would figure that they would be able to take everything that they learned from EQ and make it better .. but this clearly isnt the case. Makes me wonder who's working on EQ2.

Well i am seriously hoping WoW is the game we are waiting for because both of the top raiding players from EQ are working for them, THott and Furor.


If they cannot provide the raids and high end content we want with those two advising them we are doomed, yes they might be twits but they know all about what we the gamers want.

I too, been feeling like leaving, i went from doing 4-5 lv3 investigation missions to starting it, then quiting cause its not worth the time and credits. then I start thinking of the lack of respect for a class that has 217 invested into it.


how does a CH spend so little and get so much, how many of you could take on a MCH with pets and Pistoleer specials?


Or a doctor with pistoleer, i had to take off my armor to fight a doctor and almost got beat, I was like **edit**. but then remembered, oh thats right we should be equal, a doctor/pistoleer is as equal as a bh, go figure!!

omg the DUMBEST and i mean DUMBEST thing i have seen in any game are high level eq "raids". nothing sillier than watching 100+ morons killing one creature. and the sad fact that it takes that many to kill just one.

It amazes me how people keep saying "well i guess i'll have to wait on EQ2"


Ok verant made EQ and SWG. Given the track records of these 2 games do you really think they will change anything when EQ2 comes out?

Well I think you're wrong. I've been in the from the word "go" and right now I don't feel in the least bit underpowered. Ok, so the carbine line was hit in the last update, but the LLC now works and works like a charm. Pistol is still a great line, and froim the design comments I don't see that eyeshot will be nerfed, just moved to MBH. Investigation is a pain sometimes, but a real rush others.


Despite the problems with the carbine specials, I can still compete in PvP and PvE very effectively. I do agree that CH's are a problem for the game. But that's a pet (pun intended) hobbyhorse of mine. CH should never have been in the game as it is. It should be a tree in another profession with sole purpose or providing mounts.

Im a SW fan and actually i have lot more fun whit jedi academy then SWG and JA is mutiplayer free . SWG is very frustrating, this is the poorest(content) game i ever seen. it seem like they put all their effort on the graphic(whit great success i must say) but forget to work on the profession and the content like quest(unbroken to change), loot(what loot?), roleplay(what roleplay), GCW what war? GCW look more like free for all skermish...). EQ at lauch had bug for sure and the graphic was just ok(not greath) but the content of this game at the beginning was already awesome.

Now i play only like 2 3 hour per week testing the fix to see they are not really fixed most of the time.


by the way what is WoW? and Horizons beta i will check it on the net but what it is? i hope it not a SOE game im thinking to avoid any futur SOE game.

I always love the the one line comments when ppl leave.


Let me just remind you ppl making those comments of one thing, i am a veteran MMPORG player which means i am spotting serious faults in this game way before you will so when you reach your skill cap and see those faults for what they are you will realise how much time you wasted etc.


Games need certain components to make them great. Multi player should mean just that, multiple ppl working together to achieve the same goal, not just you soloing and occasionally buying stuff from a vendor player or picking off someone, hell diablo 2 offers most of that. There has to be interaction of a HIGH level. Not just some single player game with other ppl acting as npcs.


This game has no reason to work together, it has no challenges. EQ which you clearly no nothing about from your nieve posts had at its very top end 50 completely dedicated and highly skilled people working to overcome obscene monsters using very refined tactics. This game has no reason to bring anyone but your mum along to watch and say well done son. Thats cause it caters for illiterate american teenagers who can barely type never mind play a difficult game. There now you can flame something.


Loot like it or lump it is always the reason to keep playing a game, to want, to drool, to covet and above all to compare your character to your peers. The only difference between your char in two months and everyone elses char in two months will be your name. Extremely casual gamers will be at skill cap with identical weapons as you - once again there is no challenge, no differientiation, no reason to play alot, no reason to play at all.


Anyway suck it and see guys, won't take ya long to realise once ya grind up investigation to see the game is pointless, i just saw it earlier than ya and know from experience what keeps ppl playing, its not what this game is offering thats for sure.
