Yea, while the communication from the Devs as of late has been great, this probably wasn't the best idea for a FF, considering the fact that the GCW Revamp has been the #1 demand from players since the Combat Revamp.

Fixed.


Lets not try to give them credit for actually doing some work on their own. Why bother when we actually pay them a monthly fee to do their work for them.


I'll never understand how they can swipe guides that were created by the people that actually play this game - then turn around and feed it back to us as if it's supposed to be some kind of new information.

Jedi will never be a starting profession...Looted items and quest items will never be better then crafted items, this is not a loot based game...CH will return shortly...CH and BE will not be back in game...Rangers are getting their revamp next!...The stealth system will not be changing in the spy expertise...Need any more examples of things the devs said that did not hold true?

genuinely not trying to flame, but can you explain why you, or anyone else does this? i see it all the time, and if you put something worthwhile, i could understand it, but as it is, you're adding nothing except "come look at me, somehow i think this is an achievement"


again, really not trying to flame YOU, just trying to understand why people do this.








ditto.. its so annoying.

Wait TH are you serious?
You post a CGW Guide - when the next thing after the CU (and the smuggler revamp *sigh*) was supposed to be a revamp of the CGW, as DEVs have said more than once?
So we can obviously scratch that revamp as well.
The current system is broken, Jedi dominated, i wont touch it with a ten-foot polearm atm.

And if it'S still in the works. MAybe you would care to comment.
What are the plans?

Before I bought this game i read the strategy guide. When I read the GCW section, I envisioned tons of players running around a HUGE battlefieldmanning vehicles and turrets. Talking to a general to get missions to disable the enemy's defenses,vehicles,etc. But now.....the GCW is extremely disappointing....*sigh*. Hurry up with the GCW revamp devs! (if its actually coming.......)

didn't you read the replies in that thread? 99% of them were we want FF that are outdated game guides that are stickied in the forums. We are all so stupid that we don't know how to find them we need them as FF...please TH give us FF that are game guides...we don't know how to find them and we can't search for them because the forum search feature is the only thing weaker then the FF...


and here is the clicky to your link above

I remember for a full year how the "In Concept" page was about new and exciting changes coming to GCW.


Then I remember how it got removed.


Then I remember how later we got the PCMG, which was to be a step in the right direction and a GCW "pre-vamp".


Now the devs are saying that the next 2 months of patches are going to be "content-light" or "content-free" so they can bug fix.

Don't worry, folks... the new Galactic Civil War is still coming soon (TM)!

Goodbye my love, goodbye. Losing ground is what it takes if you really want to fly.

SWG Wiki: Everything you wanted to know about kreetles, but were afraid to ask.

"Looks like SWG attracts the biggest cry babies, who whine about the game in multiple forums but continue to play it. We are tired of people making multiple posts in every PCG forum and whining about SWG. If you hate the game stop paying the monthly fee and sell everything on Ebay."

QFE I'm a day 1 player, and this person is right on the money.







You are both on crack, and a day 1 player spouting this must be on meth to boot.


Where have they spoken to armorsmiths, weaponsmiths, commandos, smugglers, squad leaders....do I need to go on? Barring Jedi and BH what the heII have they done post CUother than break smuggler, hose BH's, screw entertainers, and nerf Jedi? Add some 2 seaters and crapp @ss vet rewards?


The communications coming from these clowns has been unmitigated suck @ss crap. They don't listen, they don't tell us anything, they don't acknowledge issues, and they aren't telling us where they are going and why.


This game is getting old and busted fast, and before any of you clownshoes says "if you don't like it, quit" don't worry it's coming. Just as soon as I exhaust the last bit of content left to me in this game, namely the JTL portion which is about the last thing in SWG that I haven't doneI will be gone. That is unless they fix the obviously broken stuff and add the FRS back in.


Too bad in little more than a year I went from a fanboi who would advertise this game to anyone who would listen to a bitter old SWG vet that's ready to quit.

TH, I really wish you and the devs would read the posts after a publish and actually find out some information that would benefit this game and this community instead of posting (oh, I'm sorry, REposting) guides and such and basically ignoring any suggestions or comments by the players



BTW, these guides that you guys put up are written by the player community for the player community....theseplayers go out of their way to make this game better for others here......WHY IN THE H3LL CAN'T YOU GUYS DO THAT, YOUR THE ONES GETTING PAID TO DO IT, NOT US!!

TH, this is sad. Really, really sad. <sigh>


Went to the friday grab bag from DAoC for the first time in a year. Needed to restore a bit of faith in MMO dev/communicationteams. This is one of those days I'd really wish Lucasarts had gone with Mythic instead of SOE.
