Carbineer Archive

Ok, i got master carbinier, and above my head its spelled like that.......But in the proffesions skills thing its spelled carbineer.....

Whats the deal? The proffesion is bugged horribly, can we even find one way to spell it?

it's spelled with two Es. That particular bug has been there waiting for potential masters since day one.

In most (american) english dictionaries it is actually spelled two or three ways.At one time between the game and the fourms SOE was using all three! Personally, I prefer "Carbineer". The logic goes like this: "engine"is to "engineer" as "carbine" is to "carbineer".

I thought the correct spelling was "carabineer" Meh.

Carabineer is also correct, but that is the European spelling.

Of course it comes from Latin. But in the 20th Century, the word carbineer comes from the Italian word Carabinieri, which literally does mean carabineer (a user of carbines).

Early 20th century Italian armiesas well as World War II Italian elite troops under Mussolini were called the Carabinieri. As far as WW2 Italian forces go, the Carabinieriwere crack troops and they were deployed asflexible assault and invasion forces when Hitler and Mussolini sent their Axis armies to conquer Southern Europe and the Balkans. Then again.... that's not saying much since the Italian army was garbage during most of World War II. The German army had to bail them out lots of times.

I guess the problem with italian army was is high HAM cost...

who cares how we spell carbineer? its not like the devs are gonna fix it any time soon. better get used to your **edit**ed up title

Reading that breif history was very interesting, and I my-self have read the entry in the OED where all three spellings (Carbineer, Carabineer, Carbinier) are noted, BUT all of that is irrellavent. Thats right not a word of it matters, because it is all outside SWG. The only thing that does matter is this: In the list of professions, and on the skill tree itself the spelling is Carbineer (Nov. Carbineer, Mas. Carbineer), therefore it follows that the title granted the player upon reaching any of the relavent skill levels would match. If the skill box reads 'Master Carbineer', then the title should read 'Master Carbineer' PERIOD!

instead master blablabla, they should have some other neat titles, I like the 4 secondary title alot better than just plain old master carbineer.

**edit**, why can't people have opinions without getting knocked?

change it to carBONER.

Not what you think, dont be disgusting

ROFL!!!!!!!

It wont be fixxed anytime soon -- since launch Clothing Experimentation still has the description saying that it effects combat med crafting/use exp.

but soe says its Carabineer, but it says Carbineer on the skill tree, but the titles at novice/master say Carbinier
