I can't believe I flew all the way to California to hear "Wait till the combat balance" for every question asked. Now I have to wait till frigging X-mas for you guys to catch up on all these major problems. I think I can only take 1 more major dissapointment from SOE for 15$ a month.

*bows before TH*


Thank you for responding (no sarcasm). Please, PLEASE let the dev team know that this was not the right direction to go. We hope SOE can find a way to save face. Our confidence and trust have been broken, and it is going to take a lot more than a free painting to fix it this time...

I started not logging on about a month ago but I was paying and was going to keep on paying until combat rebalance but as of 5 minutes ago both of my accounts are cancelled.... Good luck to people who are going to stay on board... And see most of you at WoW bye bye SWG.

TH, is there any point? It seems like this decision isn't going to be reversed no matter what. I know a lot of people who just cancelled their accounts yesterday.. and I already have so few friends left from launch. Out of my guild of 50+ members, only a couple play the game regularly (most cancelled their accounts long ago but some more cancelled yesterday).I really want to play this game but you guys are making it so hard. I know it isn't your fault (I don't envy your job at all), and I doubt it is the Devs' fault either but, honestly, I don't understand how you can possibly go on without the Combat Balance. This game is broken and we've been paying a monthly fee for it to be finished (not merely fixed) since day one. Heck, us day one vets don't even get aspecial vet reward for putting up with all this either. We were here before cities, vehicles, or even mounts.It just really gets me down to get slapped in the face month after month.

Why don't you guys hire some hungry American developers and put them to fixing the numerous, small, niggling bugs that have been around forever?

Hello TH:



I just want to put this in writing for the record. My account expires on October 13th 2004. If I do not see real, positive changes to the game I will not be renewing my account. Just to stress the point, real, positive changes that are in the game and running. Not outlines, plans, or RFCs. The individuals responsible for this game have used up any currency they had, their words are worthless to me.

qfe.
I have to say, it's somewhat nice to think that the team is hearing some of this, but at the same time, given past history, it's all too easy to see them just not caring. There is no hope with anyone that anything will change, and that is frustrating, that is painful and hurtful, especially to people who want to be loyal customers and want to enjoy the game. The loyalty goes both ways. It's hard especially for non-Jedi, since the game has clearly become Jedi-centric, who feel brushed aside, but even for Jedi.
