All the excitment to find out that you sell your combat driods only to a Driod Programmer, and they will be the only ones who can use them..Sorry to say it folks..me thinks you havent endured the worst of it yet.
How do you know this?
Guys I'm just warning you now. That last "BIG" patch where everyone got love... let's see. We got oh yeah:
Fixed a f$%^ing bug that one of the schematics was not giving exp on -omg! be still my heart
Added a new schematic to let us color droids -Too F$#!ing bad the color bug is still on the droids which makes us coloring them worthless!
So forgive me if I'm not going to get all wet about this upcoming patch. I will believe it when I TEST it in game. For even what they write in the patch notes can not be relied uponn as was evident in the last "big" patch.
The thing that really pisses me off is they are probably going to ignore the current issues with our trade and simply add something new like vehicles. Woooooo ....wowieeeee.
Fix the **edit** problems with DE first guys! Want a list? Here we go:
-No way to heal a droid's white bar damage ...Pets on the other hand get standard player stims PLUS freegin pet stims that have no use restrictions. I am novice medic and use PET stim D's on my pets! **edit**!
-No way to heal a droid's blue wounds ...Let's see oh yeah, we F#$%ing say TRICK with a pet and poof it's magic!
-Can only have 1 droid out at a time? **edit**? -CH's get 2 pets ...gee that makes sense
-The VERY Best probot that can be made can only take a crappy NON CH pet (creature level 13) down to 1/3 health before it dies. That means a NON CH pet is 3x more powerful than our BEST Battledroid. hmmm that makes a Master CH pet about 10x stronger than the Master DE droid! -Wow that makes sense. Oh don't forget to multiply by 2 here fellas. Master CH can have 2 of thosepets out
- No way to fix a droid's vitality! They used to have droid repair kits. Even though they NEVER FREEGIN WORKED! Now they even took those away. We can't even make Droid Repair Kits anymore? -And for you idiots who say that's what a repair droid is for... WRONG! Repair droids can ONLY fix the Black damage of the red and green ham bars
- No way to see Crafting Station Stats on droids
- BLL's are worthless with 3 defensive slots only. Gee that was a genious move
- R3 droids can hold 6 modules. Guess what ...you can only put 5 different module functions into a droid! (Repair, Item slots, data slots, crafting, medical) -If you use a top level module in each case, there is 1 leftover slot in the R3 chassis. Hmmm that makes sense ...ROFL
- Pets can be buffed. Can droids?! hmmm that's fair I see
- Master DE's can only have 1 droid out at a time? **edit** how does that give me any reward over some schlep who has 0 DE points.
- Master DE's can only have 5 droids MAX? **edit** how does that give me any reward over some drunken **edit** who has 0 DE points.
- Let's see ...oh yeah. Droids freegin need to be recharged like every 15 minutes or they DO NOT FIGHT! **edit** man. I see CH's have their pets out for hours on end and they require 0 attention at all! If I put my droid on guard and start macroing, 30 minutes later I get attacked and my droid is worthless. -That CH pet jumps right in and starts fighting even HOURS later though. -That's dandy huh?
- Droids do not INTERCEPT attacking creatures like a CH pet does. My probot will shoot at it from afar, but does not "Rescue" me from the attack like a CH pet does. hmmm that is fair huh?
- 10 item slots max per droid? Come on people. **edit** is that even worth it? I have 5 droids that each hold 10 slots wooooooo! I have 50 extra slots now! OMG!
- So many crafting bugs. Things ranging from experimentationn makes NO EFFECT on droid's performance at all ...to getting very wacked numbers like -23 item storage rating when you put 2 level6 item mods in.
- Med rating 110 is no MORE effective than a med 20 rating. Well I'll be damned you don't say?
- Surgical droids do what? Oh yeah they merely enhance my healing abilities? -How is that worthwhile? Just make a freegin camp?!?!? -Let the **edit** droids heal my group automatically and let the medical rating actually MEAN something!
I could probably go on more and more but these are in my mind, the glaring problems at the moment, with Droid Engineering and droids in general. Fix these and maybe then I can feel some joy about a statement like "Droid Engineers will be much more powerful soon" -To me that statementmerely means more bugs for my list above. I would have much more preferred "We are fixing all known Droid Engineer bugs."
-Kulgan
(Master DE on Flurry) -pathetic like the rest of us
Unless they totally changed the plan from what they have discussed with me I will give you all a hint: We will no longer just be crafters.

Sintrosi,
You mean I finally get to dance WITH my droids?
(doing Mr. Burns impression) ....Excellent!
/bow
Respectfully,
About time we get something though isn't it people? Anything is better than nothing, and even if it's not going to happen in say 3 months at least we have something to look forward to.

If they are giving us combat droids that only we can use I'd have to say I'm disappointed... Being able to make a droid that only a droid engineer can use isnt exactly expanding our market and wont get us support from other classes, we'll just be the next FOTM.
Trying not to get despondant, but that really wasnt what I was hoping for...
