Droid Engineer Archive

I couldn't agree with you more. How can the DEV's set a profession that's been broke since the release up for such embarassment as this? That's just plain awful the way you guys (DE's) were done. I feel your pain.

That's correct. In fact it's more of a nerf with since droids no longer have any armor (just resists).

Guys,

I am almost ashamed to be playing the game. You guys were set up, propped up then shot up and hung out to dry. What a joke.

Try to keep your chin up, I am going to start fighting for you guys too.

From a long time Droid Engineer it ain't ALL bad. We can now:

1. Make droid repair kits finally to fix HAM damage to our droids.

2. We eh, sorta got another droid attack chassis - my new combat R3 it pretty cool IMO.

3. Droid battiers last twice as long for you guys (not really good for us honestly)

4. Droid Customization Kits should be useable by anyone.

5. ...

Wow, I wasn't being sarcastic here, but I can't think of anything else beyond those couple of very basic things.

Crap.

This was supposed to be more of the groundwork for more combat droids and for long needed bug fixes (which yes, many are fixed). The next patch "Droids Reinvented" or whatever it's called, is supposed to add more true functionality and HOPEFULLY a combat chassis or two.

Whether we got soaked or not is debatable. We knew what was coming. Some hoped it would only be the tip of the iceberg. We were wrong.

More importantly, it's not just DE's who suffer for the state of this profession, it's everyone. It's you too.

Droids are a core aspect of the SW universe. They could be another fun aspect of a game you pay to play. But they're not, and it doesn't look like they ever will be.

Keep that in mind. As suffer, your game suffers too.

Ashlish,

You are sooooo right, we all suffer. Man I really wanted a battlebot.

G*d F*cking D*mnit...I'm not even a DE or an Artisan and this does nothing but piss me off. I finally hoping that since the chef was revamped, all that was left to fix or improve was the DE profession. At least in the area of crafters (minus the Merchants of course), that all the crafters would be a profitable skill. No such luck...Jeez

I am very disappointed in SOE.

I was looking forward to this. I started DE to make some battle bots for my PA. I saw on the updates page they pushed it back to publish 8. When I first saw that I thought it was a typo. Man, that sucks.
