Listing our TC names is a good idea. When I get over to TC I will either use my char there (Satene) or if
it is a new build I will use my name (Indene)

-Indene-

i think names of fighting creatures or players are now flashing from yellow to red.

i found it kinda weird how i could shoot everything near eisley down to half of it's health until it actually got the idea it was being killed just now.

it's gonna be very interesting to see how the combat between a melee and someone who is sitting on a mount goes, i tried running around a critter on my dewback and it wasnt able to land a hit on me once, the new melee-range is really gonna make mount-fighting a choice i guess
i was even able to actually activate the pistol melee-special on my mount, no clue if it actually worked tho since that one seems to be bugged anyway.

name is poketron btw.

I posted such a thread. In fact, I posted one for all the professions.

I thought I was helping, but aparently I offended the fragile ego of the one of the corrs, because one of them got the mods to trawl through and delete the lot of them. I find that a bit sad actually, that an attempt to be helpful(and it was working, several of the threads were gathering some nice comments) was scuppered because one of the corrs realised they hadnt done it first.

thats because they (soe) stated months ago that we should not list multiple threads, like that, in multiple forums.

its basically they're job if they decide its needed

no its not ego, its the rules

its to stop people from starting a panick, or revolt and create disturbances in the forums

you may feel you were doing a good thing but its not your job to organise the whole community

So who's job is it, the corrs(not all) who hadnt posted a single thread regarding the CU? If I see a job that should be done not being done, Ill bloody well do it, its called common sense. To be honest, the only corr Ive seen who's making a good effort is StarNick. Spending time testing in private with your CU team is no use if you dont try and sort out the players you are responsible for once they are given a chance to review the system themselves.

I think the basic game mechanics are very sound, its certainly more involving than the current system, and I see it as an easier system to keep in balance, which bodes well for the future.

I still, as I said in the other thread, beleive we will not be uber.
I dont think we will getpets with high defence and attack., we may get those with high defence (for tanking) and low damage, or high damage low defence for 'nuking' , I may be reading too much into TH's comment that said we could fulfill any role depending on the pet we use perhaps, but I do see it as a way to balance us overall.

The only thing I dont like at the minute is that stupid oversize font they chose, and some of the sounds.

Of course, we arent seeing half the code yet it seems (AI doesnt appear to be fully working and of course no elite proffs) , but it seems to me a big step forward for swg, and for CH as well, havent said that about this proff since before nov 2003.
