I've only been able to experience the entertainer droid so far and from that... WOW

The foam, the lasers, the pyschodelic thingies, and THE BIRDS! oh man... that is just beautiful

Nice work.

Concerning the survey droid, would it be possible to improve its funcionalityby having itdisplay the stats of the resources?

I want to add my "bravo" as well to the Dev team for the Droid's Rebuilt publish. I'm exhausted from spending the last 8-10 hours crafting new droid modules.

Yay for the devs. Because of the this publish I now have negative R3 Chassis due to all the orders I'm getting. And I've finally got a use for those treadwell droids, they go great with structure maint modules!

not sure what they charging but from our DE who is just now messing with them, they need specific gems and several items from master artisans which arent usually cheap to make.

This would be my only gripe that since they are 1 time use they didnt need so much resources but overall I think the devs did good, first time in a long time my DE friend has been happy with changes.

Now if they put this much in combat reworking I may actually see 3/4 of our town come back and play since they got bored with combat, oh and of course the 1 person who stopped playi8ng cuz of jedi grind, but I undertsand now he got priority... Sorry cldnt help myself with that, just still upset were 4 months past when the combat revamp was announced and while glad its back in just wished wlda been sooner so can enjoy the game again with friends.

Just a couple random questions since a Dev posted here

1. Any chance of Droid Engineers being able to store more droids? It would be really nice to have one of each model to show customers.

2. Any chance of being able to call more than one droid at once? Maybe give a +1 to droids at MDE? Would also make things much easier for selling and such for DEs in my mind.

I am sorry but the survey droids are really worthless. So I use one and get a list of the resources, it tells me nothing bout their quality or concentrations. I STILL have to visit each planet to to get ANY of the stats that matter. Sorry DEVs but the survey droids are a total strikeout. Other droids seem really really cool.

I agree totally, this publish you REALLY outdid even our wildest hopes, let alone expectations. Just keep in mind now the Squad Leaders gonna be 10 times as picky about their fixes, hehe.

As for survey droids... On Intrepid the Vertex gems spawned around the same time, and thanks to a small supply of the gemstone was able to find myself more gems rather quickly.

I sell a stack of 12 (85% experimenting yields me 12 droids for the cost of 5) and thanks to being a master architect as well as a sweet business arrangement (Thanks for the startup help Zip, I couldn't have made master without ya man!) and master Artisan, I can produce them cheaply. I charge 5K, per stack, and I can't keep up with orders. Anyone who's worried about the usefulness...here's a suggestion.

Send out one droid to each planet. Log out. spend some quality time with the hubby, or the missus, or gods forbid, the kids. Log on an hour later... and you got a full emailed list of the minerals, or chemicals, or whatever, on each planet. Types, subtypes, and specifica names. Looking for Lidium ore? not a problem anymore. A handful of droids with mineral tools, and poof. in an hour, you will see if it's anywhere in the Galaxy that week, and no shuttle hops, no load screens, heck you can stay home and stock your vendor while you wait. Can't beat that kind of convinience. And now..can make harvester maintaining droids, to pay upkeep on those remote, hard to reach harvesters and such, such as ones on Dath and stuff.

Still sound like a hassle for too much cost? then man, you could give Scrooge a run for his money, because the time and hassle these suckers have saved me, just today, is amazing.

I also made quite a few sales today, thanks to my ad barker droid. And most people have actually mentioned they like it better. Espc since I left it at the starport patrolling, and it didn't spam more often than every 30 secodns or so, probably 60. I didn't count, but was around there.

Another note..THANK YOU for the colored Protocols! I am SOO sick of those stupid 3P0 wannabes, and the droid deeds being like pet deeds, now I can show off all my droid models

No I don't have a freakin sig. Just make something up and pretend it's here man. woman. umm...Whatever.

U are a smuck... u don't need to know the quality that bad. Most of the well know good minerals and chemicals are already known. Don't buy them... waste your money and time running around to each of the planets, while we have some good quality time with Tuskens and Krayts.
