There's just one thing I don't understand about any of this. TH says he's going to be working with the Corros intensively on issues to hold us over to the rebal.
What the HELL has he been doing in the meantime? Isn't that his JOB, to work intensively with the Corros to fix issues?

Analogy................
At home (real life) I pay a monthly maintainence fee on myapartment - If the drains are blocked, I expect our contracting agency to use the money tofix it, notspend iton a new building down the road (that they will then try to sell to me)

This thread should have been titled:
Great Disappointments, Major Lies Revealed and making SWG lose even more subscribers.
Every other development house out there has got to be laughing at the choices SOE is making here.
__________________________________________________
Id say that Subject Line looks about accurate....Also could someone tell me why something that PAYING CUSTOMERS ARE NOT REQUIRED TO BUY (JTL) is getting PRIORITY OVER OUR GAME

This is a shameful way to reward a loyal playerbase that has been patiently waiting for over a year. We would have been so much happier if the combat balance was attended to rather than rolling out holo-emotes, wookie armor, and the DWB, things which only impact a very small segment of the player base. Honestly, what percentage of the of the subscribers has been past the entry way of the DWB, or ever used a holo-emote. **sigh**. Its just a damned shame really.

You can bet that SOE is monitoring how many people are cancelling there accounts. The were idiots to announce this at the same time that most of the 1 year subscriptions run out.

You would think that they would know, after 1200 complaints and thousands of account cancellations.
Oh.. and that Friday Feature idea about the number of cancellations would be hilarious.

as many ofthe community leaders - we've been playing the game for along time - and still waiting for promised changes
this does not bode well -
by all means give more love to the jedi grinders and the focus of the game - but remember in the game design most will not be jedi for long - give up and go back to what they wanted to do 12months ago.
please rethink the scheduling of the combat balance

Good job, devs. You have just screwed one of the best concepts for a MMORPG. I can't believe you actually screwed this up so bad. You had the golden opportunity and you SCREWED IT UP.
Every single one of you developers are worthless, pathetic, incompetent, cowardly, and are nothing but a bunch of LIARS.
SWG is dead thanks to you, and forever you will be known as the developers that screwed up a game that had to best potential, the most helpful and patient playerbase, and the most ideas for content ever.
I don't know how you could have possibly, willingly, destroyed this game despite its grand potential, but you did it. Simply amazing...

Thunderheart!
Question...
Will the GCW publish, that a lot of have beenpatiently waiting for,be turned into the next add on expansion to SWG that we will have to buy next year?
Answer no and Iwill stay.
Answer yes and my account will be canceled today.
No answer and I'll be cancelling tonight.
I've tried to be patient with you all and it has come down to this.
Awaiting a response.
A side note, you all might want to head over to the GCW boards sometime soon, and start making replies.
Thank you.
