The question at hand is:

"Has the advent of Publish 7 been a good thing or a bad thing to your business, thus far?"



Bad



I say this because I still make more money (not to mention higher volume of sales) off my vehicle sales than I do off my Droid sales. It should be the other way around. I can go into more detail but will keep that for another thread.


Thank you TK.

I object to the underlying premise of this poll which forces DEs to cast votes the result of which could be misleading. This is not an either/or proposition. No discussion thread has been proffered. If the devs advertise the hell out of our droids, sure, we'll sell a few more. But how would business be if we had some REAL droids to sell?


Comparitively, business is bad.

Bad.

I haven't seen a increase in Combat Droids sales, but I didn't sold much of them before publish 7 anyway. But it looks to me that the number of sold Combat Droids decreased even more. Not sure, but now it dosen't looks good.

Utility Droids sales are down to 3-6 per week. Maybe the market for them on Kettemoor is saturated.

Didn't sold a Seeker in one and a half week.

Arakyd Probe droids sales are as usal. Maybe 5 to 15 crates a week.

Doesn't looks so good all in all. Maybe I have to sell resources again.

Bad...


The only good about it is that I got cooler droids to play with.

The publish brought more work and I bought resources for all of my money to build droids and stims that no one want to buy.

Indiffiferent so far.


I had a few sympathy/curiousity sales the first day. Nothing since then.


I suppose i could say its bad because I spent the next couple days doing factory runs of R3, Probots, and LE that are now just sitting around my inventory/merchant. But that was my mistake. I should of realized they werent going to sell.


Long term, will be happy if i sell the 100 droids i made before the end of the year or change professions, whichever comes first.

I have to say really bad, but not just because of the combat droid nerf. For some reason even my utility droid sales are dropping off fast. Also, people either don't know or don't care that droids can be healed now. I have sold 2 stim kits. I changed some of my add barkers to point out some of the new features of combat droids, so we will see if it does any good over the next few days.

This answer assumes that Pub 7 is left exactly as is. I think that the groundwork in Pub 7 is not that bad, and with some tweaks it can beturned around to be a good publish for us.

I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if thousands of players suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly nerfed.
