Thread: There and Back Again
Excellent new, a good jobmate. Perhaps there's hope for some of us wanna be's yet.. LOL
Goodto know that after all the testing in Beta SOE are gonna draw on that experience a little more.
Enjoy the job, you couldn'thave picked a better MMORPG or team to work with and with such an enthusiatic fan base im sure you've got your work cut out.
- Since when did Yoda look like a green Gremlin ??
Is there an Act 2 ?
This story definatley beats The Cries Of Alderaan 1 and 2, it also makes The Warren seem like kids play.
Does Holo really walk around with a Jedi Hood and a light saber ? ![]()
Gratz on getting the job
I don't know Thunderheart, I wasn't involved in beta.
But the optimism since he came on (yesterday
) is infectious.
Best of luck in your new position. I, like you, am fortunate enough to have a job I love. Don't lose your bright outlook.
Woohoo!
Congrats Thunderheart! I also remember you from the old boards, together with all the other crazy people who were there
.
Well, good luck to you... ![]()

Welcome aboard.. except this time you're on the other end! How cool is that?
Now, if I could just get the same break in singing country/Christian music.. If you're a studio person, PM me, I could use some advice and a place to start! You won't be dissapointed!
Congrats Th, itwas an honor fighting next to ya and killing some imps. good luck with the new job, Everyone around here has alot of faith in you and trusts you'll do a good job.
SOE, you guys couldn't have picked a better person.

I must say that even though I only go to the forums to lookup stuff, and I was only involved in BETA 3, I do remember the name, even if not always the content. But by the overwhelming support that I see here for you I KNOW that you are the BEST person for the job. I can't say I have ever seen so much joy and support on a forum for someone like this. SONY, Lucasarts, and all of US are very lucky to have a person like you here to help us all.
Good Luck!![]()
I can't stand seeing my client downloading a patch or update, and not having a clue what it is for until two days later. THIS has got to change.
How much are you paying SOE to be there? Really, congratulations on landing an awesum position. I wish you lots of luck. SWG really needs to communicate their progress much better than they have.
I too was a beta tester, and am now leaving the game. This game starts off so well. The blend of music and scenery is the best in any game I have played. Too bad the content isn't there. I played a CM up to master, and some of the typoes on schematics, in since beta....Still there!
As a beta tester, I too was thrilled to be a part of improving the game. I continued after the game was released, suggesting ideas tobring the missions and faction bases together to make the game pull together at the high end, and to make SWG matter. (warning - long post - probably dropped to page 132 by now)

I was so thrilled when Xahn said he would forward the link onto the development team.....and nothing happened. No communication, or a note saying it was interesting, or bad, or unworkable. And I look at the post count, one post in hundreds of thousands. And look at the serious issues, the broken classes, the un balanced play...and the typoes that have been in since beta, and realise thatSWG has not been able to fix these major issues that have been around since beta. They are also working on Cities, Mounts, Vehicles, and the Space Expansion. The chances of something like my ideas being put into the game, are probably a little worse thanmy chance of unlocking the FS slot.
As a fellow Beta tester who has gotten frustrated with the game, please send a little time and look at the first post. I think it would be the quickest way to leverage the existing code in a new way that will open up a whole new level of teamwork and building that willallow people to care about the GCW. It will turn pointless missions into a goal, and a cause. People will die for a cause.
Again, good luck! You have my wishes, and a good bit of envy on your new position. Please encourage good ideas from the comunity. Be our voice!
Help us Thunderheart! You're our only hope!
Booster O'Kelly - CM - Lowca (until the end of the week when I will be shut out of the boards)
So TH, any chance of an MCS Star Wars Galaxies seeing the light of day?
