I am extremely upset that the publish is coming out early. I timed my factories so they would be finished Wednesday evening. I currently have 4 factories up making fishak as fast as possible. Now it looks like my investment/resources are gone down the drain.
Thx alot

Oh cry me a river. The devs ADD something to the game, and you cry about it because it's not exactly the way you wanted it. Forget about the fact that it makes perfect sense. Who ever heard of an Imperial Smuggler?
Imperial Smuggler. Sounds real funny to me. But that's just how far off our profession has been (and still will be through this patch). One would *think* a smuggler was some seedy underworld character that played whatever side was offering the most cash.
But the way this game is designed - specifically the underworld brance of our skilltree - Smugglers are encouraged to become a high ranking official in either army to get the most benefits out of our skills. If you're not a high ranking imp officer (or rebel) then you're cutting yourself off from your best source of income - Faction Point selling. But that just goes to show how truely broken our professions "vision" has been. So when something like contraband checks get introduced you **edit** well better believe we think we have a reason to fight the groundwork for the future to be laid out properly.
I dont understand why everyone thinks every aspect in a game should be FAIR. This is a game about tyranny. If you want "Fair", this should not be the place to go. Rebels might die. GOOD. Imperials will act in a tryannical fashion. GOOD. This game SHOULD be about unfairness. Smugglers should be criminals. Rebels should be criminals.There should be a penalty if you are caught doing business with a smuggler. There should be a penalty if you are caught doing Rebel missions. This game should NOT be about accumulation of wealth, uber weapons, loot, etc. It is about a WAR. Wars are not FAIR.
When I realized my twi'lek paid more for Imperials perks than humans, I was a little stunned but then I thought..GOOD..it makes me understand things more. The racial prejudices are GOOD. It gives the correct flavor to the game. Jedis should be hunted by Imperials. Jedis scream about skill loss. Understandable from a grinding point of view but in light of what this game is about, its GOOD. Rebels and Jedis should feel persecuted! This is not supposed to be a warm fuzzy huggable game. It should be about danger and conspiracy and tyranny and persecution and the fight to free the empire FROM said dangers, conspiracies, tyranny and persecution. NOT about who pwns who with the 1337 uber PvP Skillz.

Hooyah Master Chief! Thats exaclty what im talking about.... people get so wrapped up in what they are doing.. they lose the true purpose and the whole theme of the game. Well /hi5 to SWG for slappin em across the face and waking them up. Ohh.. and ur whining about.. well us said bla bla bla and it wasnt gonna be till bla bla bla.. u messed me up bla bla bla.. Doyou for one min think the Imps would inform the Rebs of this before they done it? Im glad they done it this way. It Should be a "surprise". Good Job Devs.. Good JOB..

Look at all the smugglers who complain: Rebels.
Deal with it kiddies.
I'm just glad to see this in Live today.
Now if only the login servers would come up.
