Yeah that was my post, and I am overjoyed at the fact that we are giving so much work for the moderators to do. So here is a bit more for you.



I will say yet again, that "that game from that company whose name is the opposite of CIRCLE HARD" looks like a pretty cool game after having given it some attention today, and I stand firm in saying that I intend to check it out regardless of whether or not they include the combat balance.

Due to the heavy handed moderating of these boards over the weekend, I have no intentions of ever contributing on ounce of thought into any idea that may help this game, which has been something I have done since I first started in this game 1 day after launch. I have contributed a great deal to the Ranger boards and have put a lot of thought into numerous ideas for this game. No longer will I waste my time with people that hide the truth and only tell the public what they want the public to hear. You cannot hide the fact that your decision to delay the Combat Balance is under attack from the community. You can try, but you WILL FAIL!!!


We are all speaking right now in a unified voice and the longer you ignore us, the more of us you lose to your competitors.


Face facts.


YOU SCREWED UP.


This game is in need of the COMBAT BALANCE. We DO NOT need the Village of Aurillia nor do we NEED Jump to Lightspeed.


Fix the game. You owe it to us. We pay your damn salaries.



Delete that if you want, but you can't delete what we already know. You have some decisions to make, and those decisions will influence the future of this game, be it negative or positive.

You better make some choices though. Inaction will only lead to this games eventual demise.


Choose to delay the Combat Balance....you lose a lot of veteran players who have been your valued customers that have been paying to Beta test your game. You may gain new players, but it won't take long for them to catch on to your shady business tactics.


Choose to move the Combat Balance up to #1 on your priority list.....you keep those players who have shown faith in you for months. You gain new players who can enjoy a solid core game. The delay of JTL may put off a few people, but face it, they can go play X-wing vs TIE fighter if they really need their fix of Star Wars space combat. This expansion is not crucial to the game.





Your friendly neighborhood Ranger,


Reyune

They finally push Thunderheart out of the door way it shuts and he hears it locks behind him Thunderheart looks left and right and wonders what he'll do next, he then hears someonefrom behind the door say......." well we know what's going to happen to poor Thunderheart after he posts this so please bow your head for a min silences after which we'll wait it out in here and see what happens " Thunderheart thinks to himself what the heck am i going to do now, he thinks for abit and then it hits himhe starts running down the hall towards the programing room open the door goes to grab one of the retarded ex lab chimps trained by Hayden Blackman as he does the chimp starts waving his arms in the air and then bashing his hands on the keyboard, Thunderheart looks at the chimp and thinks damn looks like he's brainstorming on Jtl i better not pull him away.

The saga continues

So It's 415p on the West Coast right now and what, 515 in Austin. Lets see if there is a reponse today. If there isn't I think they are waiting for us to scream ourselves out. Don't let that happen. There should be 30 pages of posts a day for as long as it takes. I'll do my most to help out in this aspect. Keep up the outcry.

HAHA,

And to think I was thinking of playing this game again and taking my characters out of hibernation. First you turn the game into KOTOR then you push off the most important patch ever for SWG seeing as the game is horrible need of repair. Think I'll stick to EVE online. Thanks TH for making my gaming choice for me.

TH,

What is the "compensation" method for those of us that have completed multiple masteries in our search for force sensitivy before Pub 10?

It's a simple question; please answer it.

I don't like pointless grinds.
Thank you for reintroducing decay!!!
I like a complex, immersive world simulation, full of possibilities, challenges and roleplay.
I want a player driven, crafting-based economy.

I bet JustG does the posting as he's the one always asking us to leave the emotions at the door. I'll leave mine at the door the day I am certain SOE's put the DEV's where the forum posts by the DEVs say they should be.



" When you go to sleep, if you in fact sleep, does it take two star wars fans' blood to calm your nerves or are you higher than that now?

justG - When I am trying to go to sleep, and I am tossing and turning at night, the things that keep me up at night are combat, and jedi, and spaceflight, and things like that. Let me tell you this, we absolutely LOVE our jobs. And we LOVE this game. We are dedicated to doing whatever we can to enhance your play experience. And it usually only takes one fan's blood to drift off...
