Thread: Does 2+2=5 in the World of SWG?

I am beginning to think that Physics Professors should really take a gander at what is happening in game. Because none of the basic laws apply.


The player base wants FRS, an improved GCW (ground and space), faction that means something, and distinguishing but not nerfing Professions.


In response, SOE offers TOOW.


If an FRS came with it, if it offered improvements to the game, if it accomplished something other than the same dreck as Wookie World with camping and farming, then it would be worth something.


Why don't they understand? Why continue more Jedi power reductions, particularly master box specials? And how long do they think the novelty will last with TOOW? A month? Two at best?


I really believe that a new kind of physics is being created in this MMORPG because it is truly incomprehensible unless they actually want people to leave, in which case it all makes sense.

soe cannot demand that you buy the toow expansion to have the frs back. its illegal because if you watch the commercials they do not say anything about needing additional software to acheive those goals....as of now, they are lying to the public because they talk about being a knight and a master jedi which we all know is impossible....there is a group called Truth in Advertising" that is a watch dog for false claims....this would be a good case for them....

That wasn't my point Kraken. The FRS could come out simultaneously with TOOW in the way the CU came out with Wookie World. It should be accessible to all, and for free.


Point is I really think they are out of touch with reality.


Funny that in WoW, which they copy selectively in SWG, things make SENSE.


You want PvP? You want it to MATTER? With rank and items that are special? DONE.


I can't even buy a key chain with the 10 billion Imperial Prestige I racked up in JTL or a decent weapon with my 10 zillion Imperial faction on the ground.


But wait, I can trade my saber in for a Lava Lamp?

Yeah, the things that they copy from WoW are some of the most pointless things ever.
Stupid collection quests off of hard to find mobs? check!

Adding PvP/GCW that means something? ooh much too hard... heres an Obi Wan glowy and a shiny saber....

SWG is a cash cow and a dead horse at the same time. Invest only as much needed to let the cashcow do its job. Everyone who thinks they really care about what the players really want is a fool. They just listen as much is needed to keep the majority busy ingame. Only thing that counts is money and that they seem to make enough with SWG (otherwise they would be more careful - or more realisic - shut it down). Its only purpose its to fill someone pocket.

so true Eb. So true.


Recently I had a very heated discussion with a Dev about the game. His response to my PM to him basically said if people are still playing the game it must be good.


That's pretty much when I decided SOE is really in its own world.

Well...being that +29% of 800 equals 110 I would say anything is possible.


I wish they would at leats give basic aptitude test to the developers before allowing them to ruin this game. Oh well, it's too late...


I got a 8% dmg slice on a pistol and it went from 750 to 754. !?!?!?! How in the hell is that equaling 8%!?

Well, the thing is it doesn't have that much to do with Physics. In physics you can generally come up with a formula that accurately describes your world, in an MMO that is not the case. This is more about Psychology, trying to guess what people really want, and people have very different opinions on what is good.


I for example wouldn't mind seing a new FRS and a better GCW, but at the same time I thought RotW had a lot of good quests, and I know there are many more who liked it, so it's no drawback to me that they implement that too.

Adding new expensions is always a good. FRS was a bad thing to pvp. Take it from those who have actually experianced it from start to end. They still haven't come up with a proper way to install FRS so why push it ?
