With the BARC Speeders...I wonder if they're like the flash speeder (where they can be "bought" from the game)

If so...then hell, I want one. If not...the newbies will be richer than weaponsmiths!

Btw, Commando Weapons = Combat Level/Skill Box...already got that confirmed

Now...Im pretty sure it'll include at least the Launcher Pistol as MKs and PR are to be determined. But...with those LP's...you ALL will be pleasantly...surprised.





I don't really care what happens to our certs, profession, or anything else at this point. The only think I care about is the complete annihilation of the level system, which they seem not to be willing to do.

What is it about the level system you hate so much? The con system and the way it works? Or just that we have all these numeric levels that are shown now mate?

hey starnick, i just realized something. I'm going to be out of country when CU hits live. Could you ask the devs in your secret forum about the respec... cause i'm worried that i might miss it cause i'm not getting back until may 17th. Basically I just want to know if people that haven't been able to log on cause they're out of country will still be able to do the respec thing.

Ahhh ok yeah that part really stings. I am not a big fan of that at all either. I am already expecting to have to stay cloned all the time now, and haven't really cloned in months besides TC.

If they do it similar to the jedi respec, it will just occur the next time you log in regardless of time. Now , who knows if it would end up being a one time respec for you if it was past the window they allow or if it will be on a timer for each account how long you will have to do it. I hadn't even thought of that as I may have to be gone as well.

Improved LP? Why make an improved LP? I mean, physically, a pistol that shoots rockets is... impractical at best...
