Thread: SWG2 Proposal
SOE, Type ''GAME OVER '' on all your servers.
Advertise '' SWG2 '' on media for one month.
Roll back all the servers to publish 8 ( Before Jedi changes )
In this one month, fix professions, insane weapons ( Not overpowered ones, only the insane ones )and dots. Reduce armor protection a bit.
Keep Jedi, hologrinding, saber tef and 3 deaths in one week - 1 skill lossingame. Noone saw Jedi aorund pre-publish 9 right ?
I bet my everything first day Subscribers of SWG2will be at least DOUBLE of today's.

How about a complete new game. They abolish all this nonsense. Make swg a clean sheet and they way THEY WANT.
DONT RELEASE THE GAME UNTIL ALL IF NOT MOST BUGS ARE FIXED. DONT HAVE A DEADLINE!
Or, let SWG simmer out. Get new upgraded servers. Thin out the codeing so the gameplay will be smoother and easier to work with. And, be more carefull and farsighted from the ground up so bugs and the like dont build up over time. Focus on swg as it was meant to be with the uniqueness that drew in alot of people to begin with and dont stray. That leaves you with starwars fun and feel, less lag leading to smoother gameplay and more action, and more time to work on the other non combat parts of the game and especialy the unique crafting system.
And, the first dev to suggest afruity wizards & dragons type expansion gets demoted to server maintenence.
Reduce the number of profs, so you reduce the number of 'imbalances' between them all, and for gods sakes, make Smugglers able to smuggle something!

pre- 9 Jedi here -- If they also took the population with them then Yeah Id be all for this, I unlocked 6/7 -- If we were to even try to bring all of you new guys over it would be a train wreck.
The system back then supported the amount... which was very few of us.
Having the 10000 Jedi each server has now with that kind of power would be far worse then anything we have seen so far.
I mean crap man, We had fools doing the Knight trials in beta when they were not even needed too... that tells you the player that can come from this mess.

This post, while an interesting idea, the OP would be taking it in the wrong direction. After reading it, this sounds like another "bring back Pre-CU" post of which we have more than enough of and would more likely be named SWG 0.5. If there were an SWG2 it would be with a completely new set of professions, new worlds (probably less of them considering how they did EQ2) and would probably be set in a timeline more like the New Republic, where they can add any content they choose and not be restricted by movie canon. A benefit to this in our case though is that it would be much easier to streamline jedi into the storyline.
Well, I'd prefer another SWG where everything is quest based and balanced, and to be a Jedi you have to do quests from escorting political characters to carrying imporatant data. For light Jedi, protecting people and for Dark Jedi, assassinating.
But I'll be realistic. This won't happen.
So all I want is a whole game wipe. To the poster above Reikus, I am a pre-pub 9 Jedi, too, and no I don't want myself holding a Lightsaber there. I want EVERYONE to start from scratch. A new game. All of us with CDEFs and n00bie clothes.

Now with that, I can see where you're coming from.
I do love your ideas about the quest based deal for light/dark side. That actually sounds like jedi content *gasp* of which we have none of really.
Wiping the game isn't going to solveany ofthe problems, though, and would make the people that have been enjoying this game for quite some time, very unhappy. Maybe what could be possible is if they did do a game-altering publish to open up a new server (not a pre pub anything server, just a new clean server that you can't transfer to) and see how many players actually start fresh.

Boy I think alot of people would be ticked off not getting thier Jedi back lol. Like I said, when I see these posts of "Can we have a old Server etc.." then when I say ok but the population has to be that way too, they shut up SOOOO fast it's not funny.
They want the reward without the work or risk..lol it's kinda sad but shows you the diffrence in old Jedi vs new.

They weren't saying that they messed up on EQ1 when they built EQ2.
