And I bet both regions would be happy!






yep, why is there the option on the bazzar for eye wear and capes but none that you can buy in the game? Time for the art guy to start throwing cool stuff at the devs. I wanna see some more bling bling in the game. How about a spinny factional neclace?

tiggs.. you know it would boost the economy if tailors or even de's to make a similar verson of these... so this way it creates a cash flow for crafters... people get what they want... and everyone is happy... now just if the goggles we can craft are slightly different but almost as cool at the SE ones... we will be happy...


and have it so we have quests for the items too... buty make it so crafters are the ones who can do the quests to keep the combatants from selling the items to crafters at millions of credits...

Seeing how we like the Japnese and they like ours why not just give everyone both sets?

Management change and credibility is expected & deserved, and really a requirement for me to desire to log in and not have my MMORPG time completely wasted. SWG's mismanagement, ongoing, lacks credibility. I have no desire to log into my toon, attempt to accomplish something, only to find out that my blue zebra, 12th level, with 20 badges, isn't going to be turned into tomorrow's 4th tier yellow monkey, and all the zebra's stuff is no longer of value. Without credibility, its just a duck hunt game that doesn't even keep score of how many shots land on a duck.

How about THIS crazy idea?

Why not just give EVERYONE the chance to get some eyewear in one form or another.

I know that may be a big shock to think about, but it just might work. We do have crafters, remember.

Let's see, the Japaneese SE owners want the goggles the US SE players have, and the US SE players want the goggles the Japaneese SE players do.

The vast majority of players of both countries who don't have any eyewear at all would take whatever they could get.

Let's not pretend any of these goggles (like anything in the game) actually exist. They aren't "in" those limited boxes, they exist on servers and can be replicated indefinately.

I understand not wanting to PO owners of the SE's by giving the same exact goggles as quested or craftable items, but it makes no sense that for more than two years the only people who get any sort of eyewear are those that pay you more money. I actually have the SE on one of my accounts (from when it went down to $25 on Amazon), but still think it's silly we can't get some eyewear in-game for everyone else.

I'm a bit tired of the Dev team/community managers/whomever pretending that the REAL sky would fall if you just did something nice for us. Are people getting some frickin' goggles gonna break SOE/LA's bank? Will it kill the real-life stock market? Nope, it would just make many players just a bit more satisified with the game, something which I think you are always in short supply of around here.

So how about the Dev team just gives tailors some eyewear to make? Problem solved, no?

Tiggs, you still have not answered the question of where is the promised exclusive stuff we are supposed to have recieved "in the future" for buying the Special Edition. We got the goggles, and that's it. We never got anything further like we were led to believe we would by purchasing the Special Edition.

Tiggs, does that mean we can use the Japanese Commander Box Key with an existing US SWG Account and reap it's benefits?
Thanks in advance.

PS.: It would truly be great if you could introduce the Japanese goggles to US customers as quest rewards and whatnot and the US goggles to Japanese customers as the same. That would truly be a nice reward.

Personally I don't want everyone being able to have the goggles I got with my special edition...I paid big money to get the Special Edition here in Europe, I don't see a good reason why everyone should get them since i had to pay for them...

Now give ppl other goggles, I don't mind, like the japanese one, but the goggles we have now is a sign you are a veteran in-game, so if everyone runs with them, it wouldn't mean anything anymore. Yea i know, some ppl sold their account, at the same time it's against the EULA if you remember...

So, don't give my SE Goggles to any noob out there, or pay me back my $180...

I spent about two hours using an online Japanese translator and various Japanese search engines.

The product is actually fairly widely available. Not rare but certainly not everywhere.

Mainstream retailers have them.

However none of them will ship software to the United States. Even called one and got an English speaking rep who said it deals with privacy/import/export laws in regards to digital entertainment.


Superb.

i think w should get goggles like the SE ones that can be crafted.. but not the same exact ones this way the people who spent more on the game don't feel cheated
