Activision can't publish Lucas Arts games that they don't actually make. VERANT/SOE made Star Wars Galaxies. The same people that made Everquest. Lucas Arts published the game.

Here is a list of all the known games that Lucas Arts has Developed, and all they have published: http://www.gamefaqs.com/features/company/943.html

Rhysati, just give up. wussynip clearly doesn't know when to admit he's wrong. When LucasArts themselves say they are publishers and he still insist they are not, he's clearly a hopeless case on this matter.

I have played SWG from the beginning. What has kept me here is the people. I have seen many in the past few weeks drop SWG and say good bye. I fear it is almost my turn for this evil deed. I believe that SOE has never delivered anything but a severly flawed game that has never worked from the beginning. Now do I believe that they will deliver anything better in the future, no, they have not delivered yet on the past. Whether it is JTL or the combat rebalance I do not think they are capable of figureing it out. Their priorities have not been straight since the beginning, they have changed their minds along the way, a sympton of no plan or what I believe is the lack of confidence in their skills to deliver a quality game. They lack imagination, the only mystery of the game was destroyed when they delivered the holochron that single handedly excellerated the game into its demise. Why, cause they were losing people at that time, and the only way to save it was to deliver the jedi sooner. Has there ever been someone who became jedi by grinding 40,000 pistol barrels in any bood you read, sure in SOE's version. Where did the imagination go, it became a numbers game, how many proffessions, how many hides do I need, how many tools do I need, and who can I get to war cry for me. If you are not CM then well you are not a very serious PVP. Everyone who has played the game knows, but maybe the devs have not played their own game, and maybe they should.

I am not saying deliver JTL or combat rebalace, but fix the game as it was intended to be. I am certain with all the stats, professions and grinding that is this game that the devs must have come from Oracle and were former accounting software engineers. In my opionion it is time to get a new staff and maybe start over, maybe a good place to start is with all those CS tickets that go unanswered, or maybe read this post.

And hey where did the monthly story go, and what is happening with the rebellion or is that with my open unanswered ticket?

Bottom line is that this is and may be the final nail in my coffin that I will bury my accounts in. There are other games coming, they seem to be grabbing my interest.

And if you think I am off on my accounting crack, for the last year SOE has figured out how to get folks to pay for the beta, when do we get to pay for the real game. SOE should be ashamed, SOE should be held accountable, and sometimes ones best is not good enough.

Darkatem I am a lady thanks for being so observant. And Lucas Arts never said they were the publishers again ACTIVISION PUBLISHES FOR ALL LUCAS ARTS GAMES. How should I know this I worked for ILM for 3 years.

Why is this argument going on?

We are voicing concerns on the state of the game, not who does what. Sheesh.

There is no fooking war. Fix this. Fix this now!
