Future suggestion: special moves for use while mounted. This would be especially useful for those weapons traditionally used by mounted combatants (polearm, 1-hand sword).

Can all weapons be used while mounted? Two hand sword? Flamethrower? Blech.

wait a sec.. he never mentioned anything about vehicles. Does this mean that vehicles and player mounts won't come out at the same time?


That'd be quite dissapointing, I'd rather support ppl who craft hard than creature handlers who have too much power in SWG already.

After this update, please stop adding stuff and start fixing what is already there. If you read these boards, you know the issues. I've been playing for two weeks and they are obvious to even me. I know this is an incredibly complex game and I can't knock you for releasing it too soon but don't make it more complex---make it work correctly before adding new content.


Please.


Thanks.

please go play a melee... at least a little.




I can and do hit things very well while moving,If you think some guy doing NORMALauto attack (he said no special moves... so no mind shots or eye shots or flame2's...) is going to hurt me in my 50+% comp you need to share the drugs cause they got to be pretty good.




2ndly if you get kited you need to learn some melee fighting style.... The best defense is a good offence....and confusion is your friend

"Decreased knockdown delay to 5 seconds


May I point out, No one gave a flying **edit** about the stance down attacks, which if you havent noticed are still on a 30 second timer. The Knockdowns were what everyone bitched about, Q!


PLEASE say that you guys got the two mixed up!

Although I'm sure no one will really sift through and find and/or even pay attention to this, but I'll say it anyway.


I am concerned about the disappearing items in the banks and houses (houses disappearing altogether) lately. My house recently disappeared and no one has even so much as sent me a canned email response. I just read that someone on Corbantis, for what ever reason, logged in and the items in his safety deposit had disappeared. I have resolved to storing many things in the safety deposit because of my house disappearing, but now I fear for everything. So many hours put into obtaining these "Things" to help your character and reward your character..but when stuff like this happens, it lives more than a little sour taste in your mouth. Now I know that my items are safe at no location. I'm really nervous about this..developers, whomever--if you can give me some type of comfort, then great..if not, then tell me how I replace all those items? What about the Theme Park items that you can get only once? Can't replace those.


I digress..

Maybe this has allready been gone over, but I didnt see anything posted about this.


This is something I feel is very important:


I saw the list of mountable creatures and all of them seem to be creatures that can only be controled by a CH. How are NON CH players supposed to have a rideable creature?


If this is the case, mounts are going to be very disappointing for a large group of ppl.

P-Nice, perhaps in order to reassure you, I think non-CH's are the only people I've ever seen with a Bantha tagging around behind them. not saying some CH's don't have banthas... just saying all the bantha's or cu-pa's I've seen are non-CH pets. I'm not entirely sure about Dewies, but I'm fairly certain they are non-ch as well. Most of the creatures that seem to be set up to be used as mounts are fairly low in creature level. I've never bothered to tame myself a Ronto in game, but if they're comparable to Bantha's or Dewies I imagine they're non-CH as well. Hope that's a little reassuring at least...
