I don't understand the dev's mindset. Why are they trying to hide the info about the CU? We're customers! We deserve to see what's in store for this game. The CU forums need to be public and the dev's need to stop being so "hush hush" about it.

because things get twisted at the last second and everyone is quitting the game all of a sudden... this way u know when u get it thats the way its gonna stick (more or less)..and then u beta test it for bugs and the u go

But then you'll just forget what we told you, and continue beating your head against the wall

thwarted...may the damage continue.

and the padded helm was appreciated but now i look like an xman

Maybe not near as fun as it is entertaining for the rest of us

Ok, so are we ready for another day of FF banter and speculation?

There is nothing being "hidden", things aren't made public because untill the Alpha is over almost everything is subject to change. Even durring the Beta things will change, but most of that will be minor tweeks.

There is no reason to release a whole bunch of information to a group of people who if you read some forums (not mentioning any forum specifically mind you) would likely take even the best of news and turn it into a why me complaining flame post over something that will likely change in a week or two. I mean there are players in these forums which would flame a dev for announcing that everyone gets some free months of SWG... and don't even try to deny it.

So the Correspondents (who are expected to maintain a much higher level of professionalism than the average player) are given the information first... we make comments and suggestions which are in keeping with our professions desires and based on our extensive game experiance... then it gets revised... it comes back to us... it gets revised... it comes back to us as final... we do a thumbs up... the devs do a thumbs up... Lucas Arts does a thumbs up... then it gets distributed to the Alpha Testers... rinse and repeat...

This is why CU information isn't public... because so much is being changed that most of it is somewhere in that process (and is still being coded... and trust me there is a whole lot being recoded).

The announcment I mentioned, which is waiting on a couple SOE people's thumbs up before being put out, is somewhat independant from any CU centric feature announcments.

Please trust me when I say they aren't "hideing things from you"... some things just don't need hype yet... and those things are getting feedback from your representitive correspondents and some things are being reviewed by the Alpha picks.

So far I'm totally stoaked about the CU and what it will bring, of course I have concerns about it, but I'm seeing more and more of those being addressed every day.

1: No
2: No
3: No
4: No
5: No
6: No
7: No

Sorry.

damn boy you know i am!!!

speculation:

1.) the new fencer weapon is really a godzilla toy

2.) the junti mace does 200-350 dam with med armor pen but is a swordsman weapon

3.) if your a wookie player you cannot go to the new wookie planet

4.) they are getting rid of bounty hunters and replacing them with hunters of bounties

5.) you cannot be buffed and wear armor at the same time

6.) healing your faction pet causes your weapon to decay

7.) fixing your weapon causes your faction pet to decay

I, of course, will be proven correct on all points this FF!!!!

I liked the suggestion that it was a sausage stick.
