Droid Engineer Archive

I am trying to clean up the sticky part of the forum so I am compiling these threads as links. If you have a good thread that spawns good discussion and opens up alternatives to how DE works, send me a PM and I will try and include it in an updated version of this thread. Try and not post anything else here as I want to try and keep the clutter free. I will periodically repost these links.

I do hope that the "you"in "You have seen enough.." means the devs and not our correspondant. Otherwise I will have to flame you.

This is for sure not about Sintrosi.. You should know that.. She is not going to be redesigning the droids.. I love her work.. I think she is doing the best that can be done.. Its fully that our concerns fall upon Def ears? For 5 months?

Elitros

Hang tight, all. The issues have not fallen on deaf ears. The fixes will happen.

Amazing work by TheRealTK421. I love reading his stuff.

Good stuff by CapnSteve, also! I still stand by the need to simplify the coding a bit... maybe make it icon-driven programming like "Lego MindStorms" Something that a 10-year-old could do, but something which adds utility and our own personal signatures to our creations.

Just checking

I'll say it again im a bounty hunter and i would love to have a new kind of battle droid like a droideka from episode 1or better yet Ig88 bounty hunting droids or other droids of that kind.I really want them to fix this professtion. I think it would make the game better all around and therewould be a decrease in ch as well.

If the dev's read this i hope you make these changes or a will spam this forum until you do hahaha.

we might be heard but are we being listen to!? we want dates not "oh its being looked at" as the games stands to me its not starwarsgalaxies and its far from it at this point in time.

i think it would be cool if it were a droid that allowed master smugglers to choose what is sliced, would help the droid market out some...my 2 cents...er credits...

I'll repost it here...

Justa thought I came up with today...

Not so much what kind of droid, but what they can do.

Wouldn't it be cool if combat droids had special attack moves that could be player controlled! Better than that, wouldn't it be cool if DEs had like 10 or so different ones we could make and install into a combat droid at the time of unit creation. Kinda like a personality chip type kinda deal. And the higher the level combat droid the more different special attacks can be installed in them. Like maybe 1 SA for a basic probo, 3 for a ???, and like 5 for a droideka. This would make combat droids a bit more unique than the standard "Itdoes 50-55 dam @ 1.5 sec". Whatcha all think?

i don't see why dev's don't give us information about what they are working on ... we are paying for server maintence and updates ... why must it be a secret

i want to know when our profession will just stop being nerfed and have somthing added to it

I am not actually a DE, rather an Architect and Master Artisan, however, when looking to buy droids my choices are not appealing. If I want a droid to use to help me out with combat, I am stuck with the probe, and I just won't use the probe. The way the probe is used in the game is really dumb, since the ones in the movies are used only as recon, and self destruct if attacked. Why that was chosen as an attack droid is beyond me. Now with the CH nerf, I see at least two professions who are completely being cheated. If this happened to one of my chosen professions, I would probably either be a real pain, or just cancel my account. I really feel for you DEs out there, and know that other people are pissed about the droid situation as well.
