Hehe. I've been saying this till I'm blue in the face. Those of us who have been here long enough know how to recognize the dead ends that SOE goes down, just as we know, fundamentally, that the design has to change. It's a revamp writing on the walls. As much as it pained us, we saw it coming with Doctor, we saw it coming with many things along the way.
So it is with this BH vs. Jedi thing. Deep down, we know that this is not the basis for a Star Wars MMORPG, as SOE has set it up to be. We know *wink,* don't we, that this will be unplugged at some point, and be followed up with something related to an actual Star Wars between rebs and imps.
You do know that don't you? Get ahead of the curve. It will take SOE another year to figure that out. So all you peeps who respec'd to the flavor of the phase, the bounty hunter, will someday be faced with the fact that its time to change again.
We can see the writing on the wall regarding bad design, and bad focus, and pinning BH v. Jedi up on the priority list was a bad mistake. The game suffers for the experience and will change. It's only a matter of time, and continued lost customers in the meantime.
You are right there, the crafters in my guild, some of the most active players, are really in the dumps. I only know of two who are doing anything with their roles since Publish 24, the many others are playing the other game now, and its unknown if they'll come back, since they just created toons in the other game following the Publish (24.)
Looks like SOE gets a breather on the forums as people look at the expansion. Unfortunately for my guild, 90% of the people still didn't participate in SWG, and while some stopped before moving down to the other game's channel to ask how the bunker looks, most didn't stop at all.
Ventrillo, "Player --- has joined the server; Player --- has left the channel." And off they went to the other game's channel. The expansion planet may have been busy with lookiloos, but man the server was quiet.
