Hi there,



So, this is what we've all been waiting for... The long awaited publish 8...

Personally I like it as it gives us alot more options for droids... yea yea one or even two new chassis would have been nice but...

that's ok. At least we can make a great number more droids for the masses.


To TK, i've never talked to you personally or even posted something regarding the same subject on the forum but....to a coment you made in a post I read stating that you thought people had lost faith in you.... well, I for one and I don't think most of the people here ever lost faith in "you". I think it was just the fact that it seemed the devs lost faith in us....... therefore making us put are guard up before anything else..... something like that anyway....


What does everyone else think......?


Thanks,


p.s. I hope this means the forums will be happy again!!! I heard that once upon a time DE forum was a happy place to be.

From what I see so far... thumbs up for this Publish Added a lot of items I did not expect to see.



Two accounts cancelled due to lack of Dev interest

The NGE, a sad end to a great game!

Overall I'm very pleased with the specs on pub 8. It certainly looks to expand our potential customer base and improve our sales. I think we may see a new droid chassis too. If you notice the Survey Droid does say droid not module - as in it is a specific type. I'm assuming they will work like seeker or probe droids for BH's - but that is just a guess. (Sorry, i just don't have time to grind up a DE on TC) If anyone has made them on TC, plz let us know if it is a new type of droid or module - either way i'm dying to know how they work. It looks as though this will at least keep me playing til SE. Once again thanks to the DEV's, TK and the community for making this happen for us all.

it is a new module, no new chassis. All the modules I've got so far are on my page at http://jenden.endofinternet.net/pub8/


I know, its hard on the bandwidth, I'll fix that in a bit (possibly now if TC is stuck at loading again for a while..)

the unknown schematic is the resource survey thing... its unknown as in bugged, not as in you need something special for it.

Its a start. Nowour droids are more useful to more classes. And I have to say I LOVE the idea of the plantery survey droid, the time savings alone make this the BEST droid to date.


Now once we are able to make a droid that helps every profession,and think up a good use for our power droids, I will be happy.


Oh yeah, all us master artisans can start making vehicles again, if you noticed atthe bottom of the publish notes, no more auto heal for vehicles

Yea publish 8 is definatly a 180 degree imrovement. I dont think it solves 100% of our problems but is increadibly amiable none the less. I would like to see continued development in the future, in order to fully achive our potential. One things sure, this patch will satiate our profession for the time being. We are now up to par in terms of economics, and usefullness as compared to other professions, (just about.. almost). But these changes will see us through the space expansion, and the arrival of real combat droids. In any case im satisfied. This sure beats the patheticness of patch 7.



next i want to see some new models.

Goodness gracious me! I have a sneaky suspicion that DE will finally become FOTM (flavour of the month)!


Thank goodness droids need so many frickin' resources and so much factory time, otherwise the FOTM troops would overun us with their hordes of underpriced droids! LMAO
