Wow, they must be right on top of this to delete my post that quickly. Who would have thunk they were watching the DE forum like that.

I guess they can't handle the truth - that we realize crafting and all support professions are being quietly shown the door, one by one.

what did it say?






LOL I know better than to rewrite a deleted post.

Basicly what I said above, just in more detail.

With all due respect, that lady sung her piece, left the stage, and is in her limo heading home to snack on her double-chocolate angel food cake. Unless they're being sneaky, the devs can't change the course of this action and get this expansion out on time. I can hope that they will revisit it in the future and make cybernetics craftable items, but...MAN, even I'm bummed about this.

I'm tryin' to keep the faith, bro, believe me.

It sounds like they want to make it a reward for a DWB kind of dungeon, which of course means that people will be running around with two cybernetic arms, one blue, one purple.


I definately agree that it should be implemented as a player craftable item with minimal bonuses and if they want uber implants, put those down in a dungeon with 30 enraged wookiee chieftans or what ever.

Maybe we need to revive the DEA so we can bring back 'power to the people', 'eh?


After awhile, I'm gonna get pretty tired of crafters getting the shaft and the old Wookiee in me is gonna spring out....and I know both me and SOE don't want that.

Now, I'm willing to let certain things play out....like the HAM differentiation between combatant/non-combatant hybrids....the "combat level penalty" while grouping ...until I can make the difference more apparent compared to elite professions.


However, giving static player usable objects which can be given out by NPC's freely is a BAD idea. Ever see Novice Shipwright equipment for sale? -nope, 'cause anyone can get equal to better equipment from the trainer.


Since we're all organized on TC5, might I suggest a pow-wow there sometime this week?





You are organized on TC-5? Did you set up a DE guild or something?

I would have a MA with 6 Factory runs of parts ready to join then

Jenden, I know you are putting a good face on it about it no being over yet.... but c'mon. Do you really think that with ROTW launching in a month, they will change it? They wont.


They keep making the same msitakes over and over again, adding new stuff, but adding it in a fashion that doesn't help people it should have.


Keep being nice? We have tried that, it's not working. We griped about JTL, heck I ranted some, probably the main ranter, yet we stayed sane. Then AGAIN they do it. They add Cybernetics and leave us out of it.


I will not sit by quietly while crafters and non-combatents are puched out of the game. It's not you man, and you know on the CU boards I fight the same fight. It's not even just cybernetics, its the ENTIRE trend of pushing non-coms aside. Fixing combat is stupid if you push 95% of the crafters out.


Want Cybernetics to be a reward for a certain dungy? Here in 5 seconds I devise such a system. Do the dungy, get a badge. DE's make the cybernetics, and only people with the badge can equip them. Done.

I thought for short space of time maybe we are getting a "Combat" droid fix of some kind instead of the Cybernetics? Then I thought not. When I say it was a short thought, it was about 0.0000001 of a second. About the same about of time some dev thought about giving us some loving.


Don't know if I can say much else. I will however get on the TC-5 and drop you aline Jenden.

Respectfully,






I'm really glad I'm not the only one getting this.

I mean, I really was so optimistic about the future of SWG for a good long time.

Now, not so much.

Not unless you want to play a 100% combat killing machine, out there killing animals in that oh-so-star-warsy way.

You saw those scenes, right? Where people sat there shooting at rancors and banthas all day and became Jedi. Right??
