NO

We are extremely upset. I have been writing a few stuff about it. But honestly, if they go through it, they will recieve the results of their action. This means every preCU2 Jedi will quit which makes up a good portion of the SWG population. They care more about getting new people to play then keeping the players that have been loyal to them from the beginning. They will never get the fact that its more profitable to keep vets than to get new people. And its very obvious that they dont care. All the grinding I did to achieve Jedi to have the uniqueness of it stripped away. Its as simple as my sig.

No they wont , I play games for fun , if its fun Im not leaving. So not all pre cu jedi will leave. Im pre pub 9, if I enjoy it Im staying.

I havnt been able to yet unfortunatly but a lot of our guild has and most like it. So Ill wait and see. Thats all I can do , if its no good Ill quit , no drama .

Why am I not upset?

• I get a new crystal


• I get a new robe


• I get new titles


• I am no longer hated because I am a jedi


• I am finally equal and do not have to worry about BH's


• I can play my jedi in peace and not worry about anything


• I play a jedi to be a jedi, if i'm equal then I do not really care, even though I grinded out many professions to unlock I just wanted to play a jedi.


• Anyone with an AB slice can kill a jedi, as far as i'm concerned then that means there is no reward. We still have to deal with BH's and we are weaker? With the changes we will not deal with BH's and be equal to them.

Sorry when I unlocked I just wanted to be a jedi. Not the uber ultra-rare class that 90% of the jedi signed up for. I just want to play my jedi and be left alone, with these changes it might finally happen.

Great post . To those of you who want to be famous, unique, elitist or whatever you want to call it... start acting, playing an instrument, singing or doing sports in real life or just become a pr0nst4r or something. Or do you seriously think that people do admire/respect you for grinding to Jedi in an onlinevideo game? You gotta do something more substantial than that to score with da gurlz .

The game as it stands now stinks I agree with a lot of the others if we can't have a roll back to pre-9 then by all means bring on cu2 because right now I'd rather play eq2 anyway........... shrug

Im really surprised that we arent makin more noise about these changes.. i mean, lets review..

• Jedi are being nerfed so that they are no better than any other profession

What is really new, atm many jedi are finding it hard to beat Combat Medics

• Jedi is being stripped of its uniqueness by making every jedi be the same template

This may be annoying but it also means that People will have to rely on skill not powers anymore

• Almost all jedi attacks and powers are being removed, and those that are left like forcerun are being nerfed into uselessness

This is very much ashame but this isn't the last patch that is every going to be realeased they may in fact improve these skills

• Anyone can now be a jedi without having to go through any prerequisites.. you get lightning at level 5 jedi !;/ Everyone on the server will be jedi.

This is wrong as you can only have one jedi per account, and the uberness does not remain and people will become bored, except vets, hopefully

• No matter how far you were in the FS grind, its all worthless. If you spent 5 months grinding and were about to unlock, it will be like you never did any work at all because they dont compensate you for FS.

Is this true, or can you respec your skills in FS to something else?

• Our only compensation is some nice trinkets and the ability to glow. After 6-8 months that most of us had to hologrind or FS grind, and then the extra months of jedi grinding.. that seems pretty freakin unfair

How else could they compensate us, once SOE has started on a new "improvement" theres no way to stop them, personally im happy we get at least this

This is pretty much the worst thing they could do to us besides removing jedi from the game completely. I think we need to be more vocal.. Where is our correspondant on these changes ??

It is hardly the worst thing they can do, if you really hate it, then quit, but frankly these changes will help the bug problem and rely more on skill then just good items and moves

What is there to say now? We all are upset in some form or another over losing months of work to this decision, but the MMO industry is evolving...this will be a free subscription game very soon and we will spend RL $$$ to purchase rare's, bonuses, and the like directly from SOE. Look at the Japanese market,this game is alreadymorphing into that model....this was the first step.

"Things aren't what the were they're what they are"...it was a really great time, but this is what makes great times "GREAT TIMES"; becuase they were unique and captured our attention fully WHILE they lasted, then change, and then nostalgia. We will all remember this as one of the best gaming experiences we had for better or worse...we had each other in game and on the forums to share it all...like watching a bunch of kids playing with their action figures again.

Well, after the CU and the resulting balancing, I still saw this game as SWG that I've been playing from day 1, hence I was vocal about the changes when they affected me. With the CU2, I just realized that this game will no longer be SWG and I won't be playing it, hence i'm just trying to make the best of the remaining days I have.

because we are channeling our anger into launching fireworks (in britain)

i didnt read all the other posts i just skipped to the back to answer your question.

why arnt Jedi mad?

1) we have been numbed down by the constant nerfing.

2) to get angry would serve no purpose. it would be like beating a dead horse or hunting a Unicorn.

3) most of us have come to realize the simple fact that the sun has set on our great day at the beach.

not all Jedi are l33t narrow minded idiots and have an open mind

im not upset because its a very small price to pay for a game that is 10000000% better and more fun to play.
