The reason that that droids they will likely introduce will not be worthwhile, in comparison to what has to be given up to get them.


Most veteran DEs know this to be true....sorry.





Yep. DM will have droideka and IG 88 to use. They'll get some droid combat bonuses. That's it.


Experimintation will not be fixed. ou really think getting some high conductivity copper is going to help you with an advanced droid motive system? Heck no, droids won't be any faster. Betcha ost damage difference is determined by DM special abilities.

Just to clarify to anyone that might read this...



I have not gone "on strike" in the past and am doing so again.


I still make and sell mostly useless droids, just like the rest of us.

And this relates to the Droid Invasion discussion, how exactly?


Don't sow discontent just for the sake of doing so.


Have a reason. Make valid points.Oh yea...and...don't hijack threads.

Once again TK you have hit the nail directly on the head. While I'd like to say that it will do some good and change the minds of the devs, I really don't think anything can do that at the moment. We're going to get DH/DM/DC for one reason and one reason only. The devs are too inept and imagination starved to do anything else.
The thing that confuses me about the last part is that both Sin and Drashk spoke extremely highly of the DE dev and about how passionate he was about DEs and droids in general. What happened to this guy?

I dont believe I said it had anything to do with the Droid Invasion at all. But I figured, that you didnt want me to make a whole new thread simply to post that poll. Am I correct in assuming that?

Well...yea, sort of.

I'd say it is more correct to say that you should have assumed to post this poll in a place where people would actually give a ______ about what you were pointing to...



Just a guess.

Sweet TK, real sweet. Lot of nails got driven home in that post, and in many others.


The Droid Invasion is what happens when a vocal minority is listened to. Either we as a community failed or we just weren't listened to initially, because it looks like the only changes to our profession (they aren't fixes, and don't be fooled into thinking they are) will be the addition of CL10 combat droids JUST LIKE THE ONES WE ALREADY HAVE, and the addition of a new profession to use droids none of us will ever sell. Why won't we sell these new droids? Why, because the people interested in using high level combat droids are DE's who will add that profession to their repeitoir. Others who aren't DE's who want high level combat pets are already CH's.....


I have but one term for the DE community at this time......

I said that this had anything to do with the Droid Invasion? And the last time I checked, the Discussion forum was closed. Anything else for me to rebuttle?

TK (hun...


Sometimes you are special


Sometimes you are good


Sometimes..and in this case..you are spectacular


This must be one of the greatest posts of all time..and don't think it's a lost cause ever. The day you give up is the day I will too. Hero worship? nope Just a whole lot of heartfelt respect.


I mailed your post to the Devs individually, I hope you don't mind..every little helps

The uber folk out there will likely not go to DH.


The reason that that droids they will likely introduce will not be worthwhile, in comparison to what has to be given up to get them.
