I agree with this, TH probably hasnot a word to say about this, he only report what is said in the forums. And I'm sure that whoever take these decisions, they don't want to come here and announce it themselves. It's not a good thing that TH gets so blamed in this thread cuz he's only the messenger!

I doubt they will change their policy and do the CB first.Lucas Arts would probably have to Ok the delay...Just makes me very sad.


Guess i pick up all my stuff and go into Hibernate mode. Eventually it WILL be fixed....but I simply don't have the fortitude to continue to pay for 6 accounts for whats currently the State of the game.


2 are already gone and next ones up in december...and the Wife hasnt played in a month...Still trying to talk her into hibnernating her two accounts since she was Smarter than me and payed by the month (and I'll deny that "smarter than me" comment if anyone decides to throw it in my face =P )


No way I'm buying the expansion untill the core game is fixed.

This game had so much promise a year ago. Unfortunately the devs can't keep their's. Instead of taking the ball and running with a great concept they fumbled it and, like a short-bus riding, hockey helmet wearing sped, kicked it further down the street with every lame attempt at picking it up only to have it inevitably fall into the gutter. The only difference being this isn't nearly as funny.

Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country. - Hermann Goering

Ungrateful? Unreasonable?


We're paying these jerks 15 bucks a month to give us quality entertainment and to do that they should be listening to and addressing our needs instead of pushing any agenda that will enlarge their check books to the front of the queue.

Just wait. Gary has a different spin on this stuff than most people. When he posts on big ticket items it's always......interesting.

SWG:

2,301 accounts lost and counting



Anyone out there want to take on the daunting task of keeping track of the true number of cancel posts out there as a result of the combat rebalance delay? It'd be great (or depressing) to have a single thread where we could get the latest count. I'd also be great for the devs to see. We could keep the count in one thread and the responses to this issue in this thread?







with an average of 4-5 stated cancellations per page and 30 + pages (so far) that is about.. less than 150.

Yeah, just like all the comments he made in the BH forum when he announced that the DEVs were dropping master scout as a requirement for BH. I am sure the words, "... but not soon enough for you I am sure," will be included serveral times.

"List?..... Where is this "list" you speak of. Writing something on toilet paper and then wiping your ass with that same paper doesn't constitute as a list." from BH forums in regards to combat balance list of issues.
