Thread: Are you kidding me! Where did this come from!

Right now I don't know any more than is posted on the public boards. My hope is that droids will see increased use. First off, CH is going away, so we shouldn't have to compete with creature pets anymore (I'm assuming they're going with the CH, just my assumption though). Secondly, they mentioned that they're trying to make the game feel more starwarsy... what's more star warsy than more droids? Again, just my personal thoughts/assumptions/hopes/guesses.
Fingers crossed eh?

As a Fellow DE _and_ also having a CH toon, I don't like it either way.
Pets are part of SWG universum (tauntaun saving Luke's life anyone, carrying Han to Luke as well? Stomtroopers riding Dewbacks?)
More sales? What do you think? Most CHs did use High Level pets, from BE or tamed.
Any person can only have 1 droid out, 5 max in datapad. Does that change? No.
Can you ride a droid? No.
So what is basicaly changing is flushing CH, BE, Ranger, Scout.
Next will be Artisans (ehm: no decay, no repair kits necessary for weapons/armor. Bye bye WS/AS cause everything will be more and more loot based.
I don't want this. Not at all.
Stupid forums....
Yeah, I am a bit suspicious of the timing of this accouncement... and how it cae one day after it was too late to cancel your TooW order. Luckily for me, I cancelled my pre-order a couple weeks ago as soon as I saw for sure that it was a(nother) jedi/combat expansion. I swear, why not just rename this game "Star Wars: Jedi and BH"
And true to form, the Devs are being very stingy with information, even though its obvious they have been planning this for months. IMO, there should have been an FAQ for every single profession posted at the same time they made the announcement. THousands of questions out there, and the ***** are answering questions about titles...
