Thread: want pre-cu??
How many months has it been now? It is time for folks to move on and start thinking about the future instead of dwelling on the past.

Too many Publishes have happened between now and the last pre-CU Publish. SOE can't just "flip a switch" to make the CU go away without abandoning the Ranger revamp, ToOW, and who knows what else.

a solution would be to get 2-3 server with publish 14 setted as pvp server with a little tweak update to fix dots mind healing and armor.its no solution to tell SOE to ROLLBACK or get RID of the CU.
I see your point about setting aside a few pre-CU servers, but Tiggs has already hinted in another post recently that this will not happen. Wouldn't they have to double their coding and support staff in order to handle two separate codebases?
Surely people who play the pre-CU servers would demand bug fixes and new content, right? Given SOE's current track record with SWG, I'm not convinced they can keep 2 versions of the game bug-free, let alone one!
Some bean-counter in the SOE Finance department would likely say: It would take a LOT of returning subscribers to offset SOE's costs to double their staff and add 3-4 new servers. (I don't see their accounting books so I'm not going to argue that point either way). But, I'm not sure enough cancelled subscribers would come back from a nearly bug-free WoW to play a buggy and imbalanced pre-CU SWG game. Do you?

well said. People are clinging on to some thing that has long been put to rest.

well tiggs / TH actually wrote that there are currently no plans. noone of them wrote that it will never happen.
and if we would succes to get a pvp (player vs player) server, for what would you need new content ? i dont need rotw or toow to pvp. and the fixes to tweak
the preCU pvp imbalance are simple.
i never played WoW because i dont like the nintendo 64 graphic they used for it... i can play zelda 64 with better graphic ![]()

actually, to be honest, they could reinstate the old combat system without screwing up RotW or ToOW expansions.
the expansions piggy back off the input combat system. it wouldn't matter which combat system was in place, the expansions themselves would still work exactly the same as they do now.
the combat system isn't connected directly to the expansions needs to run properly. you could input pre-cu back, and the only difference would be the combat itself, leaving the rest unscathed.
it COULD be done, flawlessly, if SOE actually cared.

LOL i would give up Rotw and ToOW for pre cu, really ToOW is just a bigger version of kashyyyk but this time when jedi try to fight a boss(i.e. necrosis) a bh can come gank em. its gunna suc so scarp it and bring back pre CU.
they could keep the expansion planets/quests/content and implement the old combat system. the expansion planets/quests/content
