Creature Handler Archive

Star wars episode 3 has just been released, and be sure it is on many a christmas list. This will probably be followed with an increase advertisement campaign by SOE and in order to not disillusion new players, they are making it a lot more star-warsy.

Lucasarts is involved now, a right they have reserved and following the completion of the prequels, the cash cow is starting to run dry and so swg is getting it's final milking.

The films (not the books) is all bang bang and lightsabers, creatures are nothing when they have a weapon, and everyone dies from 1 hit (except the good guys). Creature handlers and melee classes just do not fit into this new spin on swg.

Look at the bountry hunters, they are losing their defining trait - hunting Jedi. Why? because those new players are going to want to be Jedi - can't go having them killed by someone far better than them and making them quit the game now can we?

So my fellow CHs and BHs, understand that we are being royally done over not for balance, or gameplay, but for the ultimate goal of SOE and Lucasarts - money - by maintaining and developing a new customer base.

Trust in only one truth - never trust SOE to do what YOU want.

/agreed and my condolences to all CH and BH

My brother mentioned to me sometime ago that SWG was coming to XBOX 360.
I laughed and said not a chance as really the console couldn't handle the games complexity.
Guess what, with this new stuff i'm sure that the X360 could now run SWG and keep the console fanboys happy.
