if the CU didn't make me quit I don't know what will, but I don't like the way things are headed thats for sure.

The only condition that I take seriously when contemplating my status in SWG is whether or not I am having fun. There is no possibility that this set of devs or any other set could ever or would ever be allowed to develop a system, FRS, or otherwise that will satisfy the player base. I have no illusions about a supposed FRS that will cure the Jedi ills nor do I think this incarnation of the Star Wars galaxy will ever evolve into anything remotely close to what was promised.

The introduction of the Jedi has made the population miopic and the focus of the game misdirected. You cannot introduce an "alpha classs" into a game like this and not have things spiral downward. That being said, I am having fun at the moment and will continue to play until that stops again and or more of my friends opt out for a better as yet unpublished game. That days is fast approaching and SoE's hand in my wallet will soon be removed if things "in general" do not change.

So, to answer the op's question: No, the FRS, whatever that ends up being, will notbe the determing factor. Whether my friends stick around and whether I continue to have fun or am not lured away by a superior game is the determining factor for me.

I think what you've stated here is very important for a lot of us to keep in mind. With all the bugs and trash talking and everything else that's wrong with this game, I think most of us lose site of what really is important for a GAME. Which is of course to have fun. I must admit that I get caught up from time to time in this game and take it much to seriously.

If I had to evaluate my fun in this game, I think I'd have a hard time deciding whether or not I continue to play this game due to the fun I'm having .......or whether or not it's just become so routine for me to play it. I have good times, I have terrible times. As of late, I've had a real feeling of missing a lot of friends that quit due to the CU. Things have changed quite a bit for Jedi post CU and for the most part it's been for the worst, in my opinion.

I love playing my Jedi knowing what he could be........or maybe it's just the idea of being a Jedi.........I'm not sure what it is, but as I said, it doesnt mean to me what it used to.....it just isnt the same.

I'm hoping that the FRS will be outstanding and will fill a void I feel has been left in this game for me......if it can't......I guess at that point I would be able to decide if thegame really is fun for me anymore. My thoughts now are that it will not be fun.....so I guess I continue to stand by my answer. I will quit if the FRS is a flop.

I may be hitting the cancel button even before hand. I'm just tired of none of our bugged abilities being fixed, Jedi continually being equal to or weaker than various BH templates.

What's kept me in this game so long was my Jedi. When I was done with the grind, I enjoyed playing him in pvp and various other pve arenas. He never was uber or had any uber gear, but he was fun to play. Now everytime I log in I'm hounded by BH's. Sometimes one every hour, and with the current state it requires me to stop whatever it is I'm doing, and fight him which 8/10 times results in me running away to a safe spot to log out, and log my alt in. So I ussually just don't bother logging him in to avoid a disruption in my game play - but I want to play him since I put so much effort into creating him and playing him over the past two years.

I don't see these fixes coming anytime soon, and frankly I'm tired of waiting for fixes that never come. I knew this when I bought a game developed by SOE - as I feel they're response to community action is slower than a slug traveling along a salt trail. But this game is and has been fun, just the enormous amounts of problems have tainted any fun I have now in the game.

We'll see....

We get nerfed beyond repair yes... I will be hitting the cancel button also they are nerfing the game to make it just like everquest becuase the stupid DEV don't know crap about what the pre cu was like so they continue to nerf everything until people are forced to quit..... we've spent countless hours and millions of dollar on stuff that is useless now. they make more planets for no reason and just add more crap that they are going to end up nerfing. now if the frs sucks im quitting.. thats the only reason jedi have to look forward to..... this is game is getting worse and worse and they don't get why people keep cancelling thier accounts its really stupid and i've put so much time and money into a game i can no longer enjoy its pisses people off. So they leave.... sell thier accounts to @sshats that make other people quit and totally ruin the game.

Btw the FRs is coming sooner than u think

I am sure it will strongly influence whether I will keep paying for playing or not.

how soon?

From my own point of view, the Dev's have everything to win and everything to lose.

It will depend if the FRS gives you skills to be lord of the land, or is worthless and makes you the lord of the flies.If the frs is just a series of quests that just take along time to do just to keep us paying online every month i am gone. Now, if we can actually have skills and advancement over other proffesions including jedi it might be worth it. But, I want a solid definition of what I have to do and what are the rewards. This game makes you assume so much and then doesnt come through with the promises. My prediction, the frs will be held off and then a month before, and right after your billing date, they will tell us that soe is shutting the whole thing down. its going on 6 months we have been waiting for something that was promised 3 years ago. The wait is getting rediculous...We need up dates, good or bad, on whats going on....But soe wont tell us a thing.
