TH I would just like to see a little love come over to the entertainer comunity it is tumbling into a terrible thing and we cant ever seem to get you to respond to us... what/ when is there going to be a fix for all of the entertainers? Our requests are not that huge we just want our cantina back... the ability to self buff and new songs dances and anything else generaly that would make it more fun for us and our customers... If you would like specific ideas i would be happy to compile them from all the different threads... but if your not going to do something to fix them then the problem is only going ot get worse... and while were not the main proffession in the game it is still 57k subscriptions and i think that warents a response.

so what is the point of this thread? its all the same things that have been said in numerous other threads, for months.


so what is the point of this thread mr th? or whomever?


it seems to me that soe simply regurgitates the continual line of "tell us what u think, b constructive", while doing nothing about the issues raised. then to quell any voices that say "why is this continuing to happen, r u listening devs?" soe introduces a "new thread"---like this one here----and says again the party line "tell us what u think, b constructive". keeps us busy thinking they are actually doing anything about these issues, while they go about doing...well, whatever it is they do.


i have seen constructive posts, about the same topics repeatedly. so we have done our part, now what happened to you part mr th?


or r u going to introduce yet another new and improved (and utterly useless) thread, to hear the exct same issues?

TH,


Has there been any movement or acknowledgement from the devs about the CTD, reboots and screen freezes that seem to be happening lately. Some have said they have seen them since the vehicles update, but personally I only started seeing it happen the last few weeks. I have a maxed out system with 2.4ghz processor, 1GB of RAM, a 256MB Video card and im on Cable modem where I normally see better than T-1 speeds to and from the internet. Even on dial up before I never saw anything like this happening up until a few weeks ago.


It seems to be a repeatedly reported issue but I haven't seen any dev postings on what they think may be causing it or what the fix might be for us. It happened last night in the middle of a dungeon and I was the tank. Whole group wiped because of it. I know everyone is concerned with the content issues but something as big as this on the technical side would be nice to see being dealt with as well.


Thank you for your attention on this matter.

I would like a DEV. response on this as well. I never had any problems until the vehicles went in. Now I freeze and have to hit my power button to get out of hit. Very irritating and worries me about wrecking my machine.

Any word on fixing the BH Invest. missions? I hate traveling all over Lok or some other god forsaken place for nearly an hour just to discover my mark is in a wall and can't be attacked,or have my droids repeatedly tell me that my mark is standing in front of me when there is nothing there. Or traveling on my speeder to find my mark and get a system message saying that the mission in "incomplete". Very costly,time wise and credit wise.

Hello,



1. Something has to be done about Entertaining XP. I hate going to the cantina and seeing people beg me to watch them for XP. If you choose to become a Master Dancer of Master Musician you might as well take a two week AFK Macrobreak from the game. There should be something that can speed up this process.



2. Fix the base bugs so PvP is challenging and fun. This has been talked about quite a lot so i am sure a fix is ont he way.



3. Make a system so that people cannot put you on their /addfriend list if you do not want them to. This will help Jedis stay /anon if they happen to show up on the Bounty hunter terminals.



4. Let Bio-Engineers create cloths with a knock down, dizzy, or intimidate defense.

TH, can you please post...


ABOUT ANYTHING?


I mean, C'mon! If the level of feedback in the majority of forums is to be believed, then the supposed staff of SWG consists of two or three people making things up on the threads to pacify customers, a coder or two to add, break, or change things at whim, and a handful of bigwigs whose sole purpose is to lie to the press so that they can sucker more customers into SWG.


I love SWG. It's a good game. But it is far from great, and almost as far from playable. It's the most pathetic game I've had the misfortune to become addicted to. SWG is my Crack, and the marketers of SOE can be considrered my dealers, and be hated just as much as the real thing.

they arent YOUR cantinas


we dont pay attention to you...


many of us have the player music turned off and dont listen to the awful music


few people actually watch you...we come in, click on some performers and do something else and leave as soon as we have no BF.


all you are is background. having the devs waste time giving you new animations wont add anything to the game


enetertainers are fine as they are. put any changes to them at the bottom of the list and work on the 30 professions that really need help

Just another request for the Dev team to take a look at the increasing number of crashes on the SWG servers. When I am near a lot of characters typically in a Cantina, Hunting or near a Star Port my game freezes and sometimes even hangs completely. I have 512MB RAM, 256MB Video Card and 1.8G CPU, I am running the game on a broadband 512k connection. The game ran fine when I first installed it but after the latest patch it has started to run really slow, it is a bit annoying as I was prgressing well in both Scout and Marksman professions but now I cannot hunt it is impossible to play with that character anymore. Other than that I love the game, which makes it more dissappointing as I really want to carry on my game and can't. Look forward to the next update/patch and I have my fingers crossed that it will resolve this issue as I know a lot of other people are experiencing the same thing after looking at the forms.


Thanks

I highly recommend everyone unhappy with these threads to go to a known gaming magazine site and use those forums due to the fact that they are not controlled by SOE and potential customers visiting that site getting needed information be it negative or positive to sway the purchasing choice. Perhaps then SOE will give us a general cross server forum again due to fear of letting the perverbial rabbit out of the hat.

TH I have been a big fan of your involvement. However im afraid the new communications is naff.


1 post 200 ideas 3 replies from you and you tell a guy to take his 3 reply list of improvements and cross post them to a FORUM THAT IS LOCKED. We cant create in that forum and the ONE thread that is there is locked.


GIVE US BACK A GENERAL DISCUSSION FORUM WHERE TOPICS CAN BE JUST THAT TOPICAL !!!!
