So here it is...Friday...and still no real response from Them.


I don't think they understand...this is like the stockmarket...and their shares are crashing with every day that passes without a comment.


All it would take is a message saying, "we recognize the imbalance and will fix it" and things would level out.


Waiting through the weekend is a disasterous decision. for them. Someone will write a PhD dissertation about this mess..."How Not to Succeed in Business.."

It seems that their logic in this matter is that "ok well we know some people will quit and most will be vets and they will probably have jedi so hence we can control the jedi population this way". But what I dont think they have come to grasps with is that it cost more money to generate new players then it does to keep existing players.

And with the way the current player base is complaining its not going to be long before all the negative info about SOE hits the net in a major way.. And I dont mean that it hasn't yet but some people will just over look the negative press that is out ther now and try it and find out how bad it is and then put out more negative press. I have to admit that before the CU I was trying to get everyone I knew to play SWG but know when some one asks me what I think of it I just say "Well if you want to waste your money to just talk on the forums then yeah I guess its ok, but if you want to play the game then just go get KOTOR".

I enjoy playing in the Starwars Univers but the lack of communication and constant nerfs, bugs, and game breaking issues that come out with each publish. There is just no way I could honestly recommend this game to anyone with out having a major issue with guilt.

makes you wonder what was the real reason why they changed it so player structures can tap into the player's bank as maintenance is needed?
If they didnt, the planets would see a 75% reduction in player structures. By keeping the structures from cancelled accounts and otherwise condemmed structures it gives the new players a false sense of community. "wow look at all the buildings, must be thousands of players on this server alone!"

SWG is quickly following Shadowbane, Hoizons, and Asheron's Call 2. Not even the Star War's name can save it much longer

They know that jedi is the only thing that sells this game so they cant take them out so instead they are driving the Jedi players away. Everything is working as intend, just unfortunate they are also killing the game but that very much depends on their point of view.

Are you people serious? I dont normally get involved in these threads cos I expect to be flamed, but, whos quitting? I havent seen 1 vet quit the game on my server yet...

Infact, most ppl love the patch. Me and me friend have been testing the new way that snares work, and cant see any changes except for a few exploit/bug fixes.

(Thank god ppl cant stack FR3 burstrun and burstrun food now tbh, it was stupid ppl could do it in the first place)

as long as they are making money they could care less. ex. Garva coming into an already highly pis.sed off thread, JEDI. and telling people to shut up we hate your whining. Hey that doesnt work.

It honestly feels like a war has been declared against us, and we are now locked in a DEV/Community battle.... Sad really... they have the power to silence us by banning accounts and deleting threads, but we have the power to hit them in the check books by cancelling.

How far can this pathetic game go and still have paying customers? I mean how do you delete Jabba's Palace (just read this, highly laughable and sad) and get away with that. Let alone the Combat Upgrade/Levels which killed the game IMO.





Simply put, you shouldnt but SOE can, if i was a smugglar i would be offedned

Yes but lots of people didn't come back after that even with the quick change. Every time they do a change like this and then act condensending to anyone that doesn't like it, there is the chance it will be the final straw for alot of people and for every threat from someone about quiting there is a person that leave quietly without posting on the boards.


We will know if alot of that is happening if the posts by tiggs and garva change tone quickly.
