well we've been waiting months since we were promised serious lovin which was supposed to show in january but now we've got what we've all been asking for, here is the list of items pertaining to DEs:


-Broke Probot Animations/Level of Detail


Well there you have it folks, the only single droid we have that can actually kill a lesser womp rat has been turned into an 8 bit nintendo looking graphic and that's about the extent of what we get until what, summer. I expect plenty of tells today asking why people's probots look likeshiat (non DEs dont usually read the DE forum)


Like the old saying says, we saw light at the end of the tunnel, but it ended up being a train.

You know, if I wanted to piss off a group of people on purpose, and try to make them quit, I would do exactly what SOE does to DE's....

Funny how more and more non DE shiat shows up on the In Dev list, now they're working on player garages, etc. ok great, that's real important, just what i've always needed. god forbid people should have to go to a real city once in a while, and they wonder why they're empty.

I decided to give SOE the benefit of the doubt one more time and produced about 50 crated ADV Protbot chassis. So your saying that I have crates and crates of Metroid lookin droids?

Perhaps I call try to sell them as retro droids...

And the one-star monkey strikes again....


Bottom line. We didn't get a droid invasion. We got a few MINOR fixes to stuff that should have been fixed months ago, and they broke the appearance of our one combat droid.

Every DE should spam this message to the Roundtable Discussion, see how many of us can get banned.

You know, I'm starting to think this "mistake" was done to spite us cause we weren't good little players and followed what they wanted to the letter.


Lets fact it, we are playing an EQ2 testbed. Droids are the one profession that doesn't have an equivalent so we've been tossed by the wayside.
