I just unlocked after a year (got my ADK on the same day, and have loved playing my jedi so far.... but I really hope this is not true. It will be the final blow to what a lot of us have been working for over that past few years. I hope this turns out to be a bad rumor, so I can have at least a year to enjoy my new found joy... but if not I'm with the otheres I will cancle all of my accounts and NVER play/buy or even look at anything SOE. Please Tiggs give us some kind of answer, don't let those blow hards that don't care about game play but just the mighty $, suprise us again. Give us the choice....if I had seen this before my pre-order I would have just wated. Thanks



We all should remember that Tiggs is the only one on our side and if Lucus Arts take the game back (PLZ GOD)we need to speek up and keep her around

It's more than likey a fake. There is no mention of it at Luacarts or SOE sites.


Something like this would be promoted on the home page if it was to released.

Yeah I looked there too. Trouble was, there was nothing about the amazon.com site that looked to be fake.


If someone can show me why it is they would be my personal hero.

Here is my comments on this one... due to the fact that (There is no gain or loss its a wash more or less at this point).

This link was posted in our Myspace SWG group... I take it witha grain of salt, but would really appreciate just a post that says its a rumor from Tiggs, or someone in the biz.


http://forums.station.sony.com/swg/board/message?board.id=jedi&message.id=1309910


Basically says



#1 - Jedi will be a learnable basic profession, thats why they are being nerfed.

*LOL, Ok new guys--- Don't even be mad about this one and there is no point, we ARE at this point more or less now.. in fact this to me is a joke to see one new guy or anyone that unlocked after the CU have one comment of frustration on this one. You want to see mad, ask us pre 9 unlockers about this one....


#2 - Melee is being removed as a profession

* Not sure what to think on this one, I don't see this going down like this, in fact alot of people whom like these would be mad so this one I see as a NO or concept of focused into less professions, LETS face it having a Swordsman with a Big Hammer is stupid... just plain stupid. If these were made into one or two profs that would not hurt crap.


#3 - You cant gain levels thru grinding, now u will have to do missions from the trainers, and when u complete the missions, they give u the boxes.

*Um pilot for the win and lets face it maybe this would gate some things and slow it down to a control level , they did it for Pilot and this way the one sure thing is you can't just grind it all in a group in a couple weeks.

Due to the fact this would kill ANY AFK crap and maybe help the profession-- think about it (AND YES THIS IS COMING FROM A PLAYER THAT HAD TO GRIND 7 MONTHS OR MORE ALONE ON ENDOR SO keep that one in your pipe if you don't think im ticked. But like I said... this makes more sense then the 3 week to full template to me.



I am currently done 3/6 phases for my village, and am about to finish a template switch to a Melee Tank. I am very much looking forward to my extra character slot when i hit padawan. So if these changes took place, I personally would be cancelled on execution.

*TOUGH CRAP, you know what-- due to the fact they made it so easy is one of the reasons us old Pre-9 guys are unhappy, we have been nerfed into a normal Elite and this is the way the cookie crumbles, you getting mad is almost a joke as some of us have been through 4 revamps due to this mess. So , while you can seem mad and upset it might get harder for you -- well tough. I feel no sympathy for the speedy Jedi now, most of them are the ones crying Nerf this and Nerf that. Most have no clue of what "BAD" is and are more or less not helping the profession. Some of us have been changed, nerfed, altered, all by FORCE with very little input so while you may be upset this is nothing new to alot of us... deal with it.

There ya go, deal with it.


These changes are by far not at all out of sync with the way things are going... AND what gets me is that THIS WAS PREDICTED-- I MYSELF SAID COUNTLESS TIMES at the village speedy way to get Jedi at the double XP weeks that they should just make it a Starting prof with quests... it's simple, in fact it might be more fun and more controlled, None of this even suprises me at all in fact I could bet that most VETS know this is quite possible.


Make all Melee profs into one (General skilled Melee class makes more sense to me then a fencer with a Gaffi stick or Swordsman with a Giant Hammer any day).

I am not sure how much stock to put in that amazon auction. Sony seems to be big on advertising. I would think if something like that were to hit the shelves soon we would have heard about it by now, and not from Amazon.

LOL. If that were to ever come to pass the game would just STOP. There would be so many people that would just leave the game in an instant. No Melee, Jedi a learnable prof. from onset and no grinding. LOL. Like I said the game would be just cease to exist at that moment that occured.




lol yet people are still here and Jedi can be finished in less then 3 weeks once unlocked -- LOL -- riiiggghhhhtttt...

Anyone know what the deal is with the new "Star Wars Galaxies: Starter Kit" that is currently listed for future release at Amazon, ebgames, gamestop, Barnes and Noble, etc websites? No details are given at this point. *Wonders if this could be some form of Galaxies with JTL, RotW,and ToOW combo retail version* Details could be lacking for a reason...wait till after November 1, then I bet we find out more about it.





This is an erroneous listing on the part of Amazon.com and it will be removed. Thanks for the information.

amazon sells hunderds of thousands of items. just because they have a link to a product doesn't mean it's real. amazon used to have ads for the xbox and playstation versions of SWG, both of which were scrapped long before beta testing ever began. you can still see a link to an xbox version here http://www.dealclick.co.uk/product/143995/Lucas-arts-Star-Wars-Galaxies-Xbox.php it never was made and probably never will be but they advertise it for 18.99 pounds.

Can't wait untill they make jedi a starting proffession. It's what i've always wanted.

Sure I grindeded all over endor and dath naked and alone in the dark with a toothpick while avoiding the death star.

I may be a bit pissy at first if this ever did happen, but it might be worth it though when all the jedi on their high horses get thrown off.
