Droid Engineer Archive

I don't get Reynolds post. "We can't make a few droids more powerful than CHs"? I would *hope* that a couple of combat droids would be more powerful than some guy with a **edit**.

I *really* love Mstr's post. Those are great ideas. I've been reading a lot of posts and most seem to just be complaining without offering any solutions or ideas.

What's really confusing is why can CHs have 3 pets out at once yet only one droid is allowed out at a time. Doesn't seem like there's *that* much different between the two besides the model. As everyone else has said, it makes repairing your own droids impossible plus robs me of the ability to lead the pack of mice out of the city.

Here's to hoping the devs get this thread!

Many thanks to Sintrosi's Player Correspondence leadership, Gorantoth's Maintenanceand everyone's involvement- - Kudos and Props to you. As of about an hour ago, a Droid Engineer document was passed around and the team is discussing the details this week

/cheer th !!!

Wow, finally we might get some changes! yeehaa!

In dusting off my movie memory I recalled the inconsistency of droid control – where the entire droid army needed a controlling spaceship and specific character who controlled the panel (see the bridge scene on the Ep1 Trade Federation Droid Control ship where the droid army is deployed) – compared to the arena scene of Ep2 where it seemed no one (visible to us) was controlling the droids – they simply obeyed the commands of Dokku. The idea anyways of forcing the requirement of some type of controlling device did not seem “un-SW”. (Yes I still agree droids should be semi/autonomous).

That's because the battle droids that the Trade Federation used were cheapo models that relied on an external computer to run them, which also made them more precisly controllable. All other droids used in SW did their own computing.

Obviously a cruel joke by some hacker that has cracked into a Dev account.

Seriously, though, thanks to Sintrosi for being the bug in the ear of the devs, Gorantoth for being the compiler of our many issues, and Thunderheart for taking the time top give us a glimmer of hope.

Its nice to see DE's get some luv.......

congrats!

I believe I just fell out of my chair.

*stands up and rubs her but*

Did a Red Name just post something about Droid Engineers? And it had something to do with some possible changes?

Is there indeed a light at the end of the tunnel?

I dunno! I sincerely hope your changes come around a lot faster than the first round of BE changes. I've been keeping my fingers crossed for DEs and Chefs for months hoping you gys get some attention. No one deserves attention and TLC more than you folk!

*keeps her fingers crossed*

OMG!

I kept seeing people writing that hiring Thunderheart was the smartest thing SOE has done and that now things would start changing. I kind of brushed such comments aside, but it looks like they were right!

I must also extend my gratitude to Sintrosi for her continuous efforts and to Gorantoth for keeping abreast of all the current issues. Great work guys!

NitewolfX falls to the floor. *crash* He dies with a smile on his face.

I wondered why the forums were laggy. Must have been all the DE's flocking to the forums in disbelief!

Thanks TH, hopefully these changes will be seen soon.

I feel like a guy whose sinking in quicksand and am so far gone that there's nothing left above the sand but one hand. And someone just grabbed that hand and started pulling me back up!! Thanks Thunderheart!!
