Forget the curb its going to be a big disappintment to us all.

Combining the testing for this with an optional expansionpack is the worst mistake I have seen here since the ch/creature rebalance and stopping there but adding buffs and uber armor.

Consider how effective testing will be when combining these 2 seperate elements. now consider when they go live with these. hmm i didnt buy the expansion (yes buy it is not free. the curb is free. both can be downloaded even the expansion just as the whole swg game and jtl can be downloaded). The day they go live half the players do not have the expansion. Don't you think there will be a whole different set of buggs if not repairs to code that worked with the expansion but have unforeseen effects without?

This is folly and just bad buisness. The marketing team says launch close to the new movie and thats what they are doing. We have been duped again just like last year. this is 2 expansions = 1 combat revamp/balance/upgrade. > bugs galore ontop of a $30 mount andof content that people will be bored with in a month considering how fast they whipped this together.

History repeats itself but people are so used to it here, thatthey smile and say thank you may I have more.

"Creature Handlers are not 1% of the population, they are over the 50% mark, the 1% excuse is a flat out lie"

My concern is mainly that they're testing 2 separate systems at once. And given their tendency to put on the blinders to tester feedback, I worry that they will ignore the far more critical CU issues that arise in favor of tweaking the expansion content during testing.

I say nuke theCURB from orbit. Its the only way to be sure

\#ff1490\ The Fuschia Family, Glowing at the universe, because its a dark place
The Pink Ranger, because Pink is the best color to hide in.
Camp Free, Camp strong, and dont let the wookiee near the HTFB's Barbeque.
The Nair cannon, the final solution to the shedding problem in the galaxy
If this game were any more screwed, it would come with a free hotel room.

Screw the Curb

Screw an expansion

I got a novel idea! How about they fix the game mechanics that are broken right now?!?!

Wow thats just to much to ask!

This entire crap about the curb and expansion coming out at a time when the game is so broken just pisses me off to no end. You patch the live servers today and have the balls to state that the drop rates are fixed blah blah blah blah, knowing full well that they were still broken on the server that they use to test the patches!! Listen to your test players! They have been telling you that this was still broken but you refused to listen or your stupid "epic quest" was just so important that you decided to push it out anyway. Either way you make yourselves look like idiots. Dev's...step over to the EQ offices and see how a real progamming team is supposed to work. You are giving SOE an even worse name than they already have. This is the worst testing I have ever seen in a MMORG.

Like I said before , if I ran my business like this, I would be living under a bridge.

To those who fight for it.....Life has a flavor the protected never know.

Quite frankly It is retarded. We need to see combat fixes comeing to the game right now, and do not say we want it perfect that is BS. If you wanted perfect you would have properly tested the game in the first place. You want to meet a deadline do the right thing, and drumrole please hire the staff to do it.

What strikes me is redundant is that they have two teams working on two projects any guess where the second team came from. Why it was ripped right out of the first team prolonging the agony. This is how it should be. Fix the game system first. The combat the crafting the navigation. Then you can divide your forces you use one team to bulk up the base game content rebuilding dungeons into better affairs, and rebuilding a GCW experience, and a GCW experience is equal parts pvp and pve. Not too much of one or the other. The other team can work on expansions.

See that its called logic invest in it. All this is another way to make the process crawl even more.

you know what I want? I want Hoth darn it, some place where you MUST have a ranger and other professions to survive. Some place where you MUST ride a creature handlers mounts because your speeder will freezebefore the first marker.

Hostile envirnments with riches to be had make for great adventure.

Seems to me the CURB IS the expansion pack, or at least included as part of it...if I remember correctly the original announcement by tiggs said this from the start, and that's how it's worded at ign too...I like the idea of another mount tho...perhaps a flying one?
