Heya, all...
I need to quickly and easily guage how the new publish has been received, thus far...

Please don't use this thread for discussion...that can happen elsewhere.
The question at hand is:
"Has the advent of Publish 7 been a good thing or a bad thing to your business, thus far?"
I urge all of you to think of both the short-term and longer-term effects of the release. This is a fairly new set of changes that we are all working under and (I believe) it's still unclear how all of this will shake out in the long run.
In any case, please reply only with:
"Good" or "Bad".

Respectfully,

Bad.
A quick note on the poll though: You ask us to consider how it may effect us down the road, but the title is purely past tense, as in: How has your business been effected since the patch hit? Do you want us to speculate on how things will be, or how they have been in the short time since "Invasion"? My answer is the latter.

Good...short term
Despite its flaws, I've raked in over 2 mill in sales in a week. Once the novelty wears off and people get tired of droids that can't take a shot, I'm sure business will taper off.

I've dropped DE skills to master Dancer - you decide if the changes did anything to make me more excited about the profession...

I would say Good in the short term. Bad in the long term.
In other words: once the flavor of the month dies down, business will not be better as a whole.

Not selling much before the patch, selling even less now.

Its BAD Tk
The world may want it's new toys to play with, and we all know there is lots of floating credits out there. Remember vehicle customization.
This is NOT SUSTAINABLE because , put bluntly, there is no equality. In addition you tell us OFFICIALLY that a combat droid is supposed to be CL13, (so no more 'creature and pet out together) which we have been re-assuring our customers 'will happen so don't worry' ....with for ages..its a big CON
Long term this comes close to disaterous in business terms, we will end up with large amounts of un-saleale stock.
