Thread: Droid Engineer Issues Designer responses
4) Variation in Combat Droids – Combat Droids are too similar, and could use more variation.
We agree. What kind of Combat Droids would you like to see?
*******************************************************************
a) Battle Droid (episode I & II)
b) Droideka (destroyer droid) - seen these on Rori! (episode I & II)
c) Homing Spider Droid (episode II)
d) IG-88 (episode V)
e) Super Battle Droid (episode II)
The above would be nice 
In keeping with the storylines already in place IG-88 wouldn't work... there are only like 4 of them. And 3 of them are destroyed during the time of Return of the Jedi. 
I really hope if we do see IG-88 it will be because we are trying to out run his huge laser guns... not because he is a schematic.
All this coming from a guy trying to get the exp to become Novice DroidEngineer.
Ok not here to rain on theDE parade butI am aDE andI am going to change my line to be aCH sorry butI did not intend to waist my time playing aDE to just have it be not worth a dam thing first of all it is boring as heck to sit there crafting worthless pieces of crap droids, not a one is worth a thing really and if you can prove me wrong please do so cause at this point i'm not sure there is any droid worth selling i'm imbarrest to sell any thing to some one to have them send me a tell back in 20 minuntes later telling me they lost there droid in battle , so at this pointI have had to tell every customer that wants a droidI tell them pls don't use it so what is the point ?, really
TheCH looks more appealing to me becauseI can have a pet that don't dieI can get my own pets don't have to buy themI get to fight other creatures in game and not sit in one spot crafting my selfto bordem
just a note to soe if you want to keepDE alive in the gameI suggest you change some stuff andI would do it fast cause trust me this is not bs everyDEI have talked to in the game is thinking about quiting the proffesion seriesly, really is a waist of time to be aDE your combat pets don't even come close to ch pets whichI am still trying to figure out cause droids are made of metal much harder then animal skin tissue animals can die and really metal when it falls to the ground what does it do just puff lolI don't get it instant rust and decay of metal on what planet does this really happen, lets get more realistice here guys and stop detroying the proffesion make it worth the time to play and more rewarding cause if not ,your going to lose oneDE after another if you don't believe me just sit back and watch cause it is happening allready
by the way sorry guys i'm going to be the next to stopDE i'm changing my proffesion toCH / BIO eng seem more fun don't you think 
We’re going to change the Usage Experience to programming droid commands in the future. This should help the progress for Droid Engineer. Expect this to work somewhat like the Creature Handlers pet trick experience."

Huh??? So... everytime you program a droid you get Droid Experience??? Are you serious? So, all I have to do now is make 1 droid and program it 1,000,000,000 times? What about all the non-DE who program their droids... will they too get Droid Crafting Exp?
Well, if you understood about CH's training for experience you would know that you only get experience for each "new" command you teach it and not for re-teaching it the same command. If there are 5 commands, you will get experience for each command only the first time it is taught. That would actually behoove the DE's to sell their droids pre-programmed.
I bought one last night and was happy to see all the commands already programmed. A very good droid engineer in my opinion. Made the customer very happy.

Fixing us
Lot's more droids. I'm too tired to think of anymore beside the 2 above. Other than that those are my only issues.
What we need is to be able to make droids that can stand up to CH pets. I said it before and I will say it again. This game is now officially Creature Handlers Galaxies, not Star Wars Galaxies. 75% of the people you see have some type of creature pet following them around. 1% have a droid. Is this really the way you envisioned the game?
Truthfully, I am geting disgusted at the way DEs are being treated in this game. We cant make a droid that can fight anything larger than a Paralope. And now that everyone has a house, all the crafters have a crafting station in their house and they have no need for our droids with crafting stations.
So what is left that makes droids special? Med modules, which only are usefull if people cant make a camp. But since everyone is a CH, and CHs need to be scouts anyway, again a useless module.
And with perma death, who is going to pay more than 2k for an Adv. Probot that will die the 1st time it gets in battle? Meanwhile, CHs are selling pets for 25-75k. And, these pets dont perma-die and the CHsdid not have to use 1 resouces or spend 1 credit to get these sellable pets. What is the logic?
You guys know the problems DEs face, and for all the questions you asked in your post, there are a million suggestions, if you ever bother to read this board. So come on, quit stalling, dont ask "what do you want?" When all you have to do is spend 30 mins reading this board to see what us DEs would like to see in battle and other droids.
