Q,


Are you inferring thatHolo has become one of the dreaded 'suits'? He hasn't sold his development soul for stock options and a swanky new desk, has he? Say it ain't so Q, Say it ain't so!!!



Now what did Yoda say about the darkside....

Its not that SWG is not fun, its more like they adopted a new mentality. Lets do whatever we can to make the game as boring as possible, kinda like sex with a nun.






that acctually sounds like fun ... the ultimate in seduction and depravity, to dress a once holsum pure nun as your very own depraved toy... can you say i am ready for a Force sensitive DARK jedi slot!!

This game has no longer became fun for me. I do not see it ever getting better. Goodbye Tempest and Eclipse. Salute SiN Guild.

Q - I have to assume that you are referring to those of us who are asking about the schematic issue. If that is the case, I take some offense at your wording. I - I can speak only for myself - am not trying to hijack the thread. The title of the thread is "October 3rd Update" and there is mention of the schematics being limited in said update. I am not blindly throwing words about or knocking the devs. I simply am requesting a response about an issue that affects the entire SWG community. I hear rumor that the TC has had the schematics changed to 1000. If so, congratulations for doing something that will make all of us paying customers happy. But PLEASE end the speculation once and for all.

And are any of the Droids going to be made useful with this wonderful new update ?

How about fixing the DE profession and making Combat Droids a counterbalance to the Pet Wars profession?


Permadeath for pets, Droids are machines. They can and should be able to be repaired.

I'm guessing the mounts will be... Dewback, Kaadu, Bantha, Ronto, Cupa(which are eerily similar to the Taun-Taun from TESB) anddddddddddddddd... baz nitch, just kidding, but how funny would that be... I say, possibly Kahmurra... Anyone else with a guess?

Stop playing poke mon and fix the droids. Every time there is a big set of patch notes like this, us DEs are left feeling really depressed.

Q, can you confirm x about the patch?

I must not give in to Thread hijackers. There has been more discussion about patch stuff with Vass on the Test Center forum.

Thread hijackers? What?!? Well I apologize as I read your initial post where you said "We hope to have the big publish ready for sometime next week. You can check out what has been added on the In Testing page." and so I did and the 100 use schematic nerf was still listed on there (tenth item done under Crafting "Fixed crafting manufacture schematic limit to 100"). I wanted to clarify if SOE was going to go ahead with that decision despite the overwhelming negative feedback that is all.

On an unrelated note Dev Tracker doesn't seem to be working right now (for any posts since your initial one on this Thread).

"DarthVaderect, mount armor isn't on schedule for the release of mounts, this is more a future type thing. I'm sure it will be craftable, but it is really to early to say."



But Q.. what about saddles, bridle and all the other stuff mounts have in the screenshots and movie. I understand armor being something you would add in the future, but mounts will need these from day one will they not? I hope they just don't 'pop' onto the creature when you turn it into a mount or something. Tailors should make them, it'd give us a real boost in sales (the market is stagnating fast do to the lack of decay.. everyone has all the cloths they need for the most part.)


Thanks in advance.

I expect there will be, but will there be an applicable Tax on using private shuttle ports?


cause I can see some serious room for exploiting. 10000000%, but the display only shows 1% or something like that?



will the TAx for using it go to the mayor? or go to the SOE for covering the fee's of maintenance? I see the star ports running like harvesters, mayor can put money in, or people using pay a tax to keep it running.



Looking forward to seeing a shuttle port close to the imp prisson.




Understand JEDI EXP (exp based on normalized kills)

Master Elite Prof 3,891,000 exp / 4200 exp = 926 Rancors for Master Elite anything
Master LightSaber 15,280,000 exp / 1000 exp = 15280 Rancors for Master LS
