Thread: Out of 10 how do you rate the Plan(tm)?
Three pie-in-the-sky ideas that seem to have been selected VERY strangely, considering the top issues we really have. I am not concerned, as some are, about Gorantoth's list being ignored. It was stated well in advance that the bug list and fixes are being kept apart from this list of profession changes. I AM, however, concerned about the following:
1) No mention of new chassis designs
2) I have no idea how I'll sell more droids than I currently do, except perhaps power droids. And power droids are a pain in the neck, due to that stupid power core. I am fortunate to have an architect friend, and got five cores at a decent price, but that's only 5 droids...
3) Adding combat modules to our existing droids is pretty weak. Admittedly, an advanced probot with combat modules WOULD be better than what we currently have, but it is still not likely to be desirable enough, especially with the current power limitations.
4) Why should ONLY DEs get to have multiple droids out? I think DEs should be able to have three (or even four!) droids out when they hit master, including two combat models if we wish. All other professions should be allowed one droid until ONE tree has been mastered, at which time you would get a second active droid slot made available.
Finally, I'm sick of hearing there's a 'perception' of anything. I can't credit power droids as 'working' if they need batteries!
We have more specific details on the Space Expansion, which will most likely come out first. Probably before they even correct item storage modules 2's from showing up as data storage module 2's.

I didn't see a Plan(tm). I saw a wish-list. When I see a Plan(tm), then I'll rate it.
I second that.
I rate the wishlist 4. I didn't see any "killer applications" that will increase sales.
A kamikaze mouse droid lol,I love that 
A protocol Droid with a Rocket lauchet looks good too!
I'd like a R2 unit as barman in my house as in the movie (will it have a fridge in it to keep my beer cold while I fight ?).
I can't wait the BL to brandish a light saber and slicea rancor in two.
Even if I have to be master DE to use them be sure I'll drop all my 3 months skills grindingto get them. This will be the most hilarous game I ever saw and... aren't we playing to have fun ?
/sarcasm off
Plz Devs be a bit serious, don't move **edit** game from pets to DE.
I'm not DE and I'm using a droid since the lauch of this game. I'm happy with my droid by my side. I saw a lot of good ideas around to adress droids issues and make them more interesting. And plz dont nerf other's professions creating stim / slicing... modules or maybe only if you are highly qualified.
Why dopeople stareat me when I pull my droid... ?
Oh yes because it's rarest than holocrons!
Sorry Th, sometimes it's good to flamea bit, plz dont take it personnaly and continue your good job
I rate this Plan a 4. At least they are looking at us.

They have not listened to us. We want first and foremost to have what is currently in the game fixed. Fixing what is currently in the game should be the primary focus at this point.
Show me a working "plan" and I'll give yaa number.
Till then, i cast a dissenting vote.
4 for effort
1 for content (nothing that solves the issues we have today)
6 for communication (it has increased, but probably a one time deal)
I disagree about giving droids medical abilities. That is why we have medics. The best idea is to make Stim As to be used by anyone.

MINUS -10
That would be +10, meaning you love it.
3. Why? It'll be nice to add a couple things to the skill trees... Problem is, with the proposed CH changes we'll be selling strictly toMedics/Doctors/Combat Medicsnow, as opposed to a few here and there to combat players.
* Non-creature handlers get 1 active pet max, regardless of type (faction perk, creature, droid or mount)
Who the hell will want an un-healable probot if it's the only thing they can have out?
