Our promised thread isn't currently in exsistance. Nice job SOE.
Hillslayer,
TH recently stated that the DE threads wouldn't start until Monday.
So, they haven't really broken any promises here (yet).
/bow
Respectfully,
it looks like they skipped de changes, january update had 2 points forums and droid invasion
now update thread 1 is forum changes and update thread 2 is vendor and bazzar changes and not droid invasion.
to many pure crafter DEs are screaming so all DEs are forced to remain pure crafter instead of letting all DEs have the choice to play how they like.

Please don't start with that again. Weaponsmiths can't use guns. Bio-engineers can't use creatures. Droid engineers shouldn't be droid handlers.
From the In Development Page of the Main Website: "During the first 3 months of 2004, there will be many upcoming game features up for addition and design changes. The second will be a set of changes made to the game world that will add combat functionality to Droids."
If I read this correctly it means that combat functionality won't be in until february at earliest. Let's just hope I'm wrong shall we?
I think I speak for the other completely disgruntled DEs when I say...
"Told you so"
We all said we don't believe a word SOE says until they put forth real effort and real changes on TC...not the vagueries they are STILL feeding DEs...

Then how about you not acting like only your viewpoint is correct. Its a matter of opinion, don't act like you speak for everyone. The split is almost 50/50 among DEs

If the point is allowing people to play how they want, then what if I want to build droids as a Novice Artisan? Why should I have to waste skill points getting to DE when all I want to do is spend 15 points to build droids.
You can play however you want, within the confines of the system, and based on the way the rest of the system works I'm willing to bet that they won't give DEs access to combat droids which nobody else can use.
those changes make all happy, pure crafters just craft and others can use new skills (u wont be able to kill any other combat class or advanced missions) all droids are useable by everyone, there might be 1 droid only DEs can use that is maybe around 10% better, there are 100 creatures than only CH can use.
why should it be impossible for a MDE + MA to be not the weakest char in the game?
I FOR 1 WANT TO USE MY DROIDS i make... not forced to sell but not use type of thing if they do this i wont be happy:/

Chefs eat food, Tailors wear clothes, Smugglerstake spice, Armorsmiths wear armor, CHs tame and use pets, BEs use the under level 10 pets they make, Artisan's use Nimodian Bird Cages....ok maybe not that last one, but the others are all true! 
Let's face it, the only ( limited ) content this game has is geared towards combat. I know they said it wasn't going to be that way, I know we don't want it to be that way and I know they said they were going to change it. It ain't gonna happen anytime soon, if ever. If we are going to get any ongoing enjoyment out of this game, we have to be able to use combat droids, period. Should there be DE only droids? Kneejerk reaction is no, but what the hey. I'm certainly not going to quit the game if they do.
