Ive searched through many posts but cannot find an ETA on the pearl issue. Anyone know?
Also, I have read posts that say the fix is on TC now, but people on TC are still not looting them....
I dont think there is any question that this was intentional...But I cant seem to figure out why? I can see the Nyax loot getting nerfed because it was just getting crazy. But the pearls I cant figure out why...
The village phases are coming and going...pumping out more paddies...but there are no pearls dropping. It doesnt make sense...

Two letters. CU. Have a nice day.
I dont buy it. I have already talked to a few people that are hurting for pearls now. There will be a HUGE uproar/exodus if they keep it like this till the CU.
Unless the CU is gonna hit in a week or two...I dont see how things can remain the same as they are for a few months.

No chance, the Devs will have this as a priority to protect their precious jedi.
...or at least id hope that, im missing hunting krayts...a lot.
If the devs officially state it will take until after the CU to get it fixed, then my accounts will be cancelled till the CU.
Lol, just how complicated a bug do you think this is? It is a very specific set of loots, and they have (at least I sure hope they have) the code before the change, so all it should take is going "oh, ok, this is where we messed up" and fixing it. Hmmm, their fix failed on test center? You sure it is a bug...?

I doubt they give a damn. SWG is past profitability - please don't think more quittings would force their hands to do anything.
I think this is an anti-Jedi countermeasure as well - 1-2 mill premium pearls could have meant more players going full Jedi instead of just staying FS.

It's all about star wars fans... They are the people playing this game still through all the bugs and nerfs, and they still will be. They won't cancel because there is no other online game like this for a star wars, or should I say "Jedi" fan (I mean who watched the movies for tkm's?). So, they can nerf pearls and crystals all they want, but people will still pay their 15 bucks/month just to logon and activate their training lightsaber because they can't get good pearls/crystals to do anything else.
So, what's happening here is the devs saying "Haha, and what are you gonna do about it?"

They won't cancel until they could capitalize on the passive interest SWG will offer around Ep3.
I made a prediction of July-August 2005, and I'm still stickin' to it until something is done to prove it to me otherwise. Ultimately, though - as I said, SWG is still profitable - but EQ2 is showing some signs of weakness...so who knows. SOE might decide one is more important than the other and decide a reallocation of resources is warranted.
