Thread: SOE Publish 24 is a New Low The Response is Unprecedented
I am hearing similar in my guild as well. Only 2 other guildmates are online right now (9:45pm EST) when we usually have 10-15 on by now. Many logged in earlier today to see the changes and I've received numerous emails from them, including some now seriously considering cancelling accounts as the content of the game is no longer playable or enjoyable for them.
This level of unbalancing must be corrected and soon.

You've done some serious damage here.
This is SWG's darkest hour. Our guild uses voice coms, and this describes the nature of discussion that has gone on since publish 24 was unleashed on an unprepared and uncommunicated player base:
- Never before heard play of other games, coordinating setting up our SWG players and guildmates in other game's servers and character-types, namely _ o _ ,(insert single character to fill in the blanks,) but some other games, too.
- Specific plans to dimish gameplay with SWG, which accounts were going to be cancelled, and timeframes that would be allowed by these individuals for SOE to remedy Publish 24 nerfs and inbalances, or all accounts would be cancelled - but that at a minimum, certain accounts of their total accounts would be cancelled, and their SWG time reduced, or on probation. This from the senior people driving guild activity, crafting, and all positive things SWG, who have never uttered such things in the past, and were even trying to maintain positive morale during the CU.
- Specific lists and discoveries of the debacles of Publish 24 were the ongoing talk - the nerfs, the negative and derrogatory affects of the publish, the errosion of any appreciation or enjoyment of the game, and with Publish 24 a lightspeed advancement of that errosion, etc. Very little else discussed, other than the new discussion around starting other games, and doing so while on voice channels.
Very distressing. This is indeed a dark day for the future of SWG.

Publish 24 is still active, and 80-90% of my guild is still in haitus in other games.
The economy is trashed, since nobody wants to develop their toons with CA's and AA's now, or otherwise waste credits, time, and effort on developing toons when there's an utter lack of integrity in SOE's designs to respect the continuity and aforementioned credits, time, and efforts.
Here today, gone tomorrow should be how we veiw our roles in SWG it appears. So should SOE view our subscriptions. Publish 24 was the straw for a LOT of people.
