I agree with MsNIL,smugglers need a revamp,SL needs a revamp, who else hmmm.... chefs,no there ok,...hmmm o ya you should add some new professions in the game,in a new expansion or something,that would be cool




Core System (effects us):


Bleed, Blind, Dizzy, Disease, Stun, Stabilizers and Heal States barely works post-cu.



Combat Medic, Doctor and Force Healer needs a balancepass.
The Loot system needs to be fixed.



Non "within the scope" skillsets needs to be put in scope with the CU:
Bio-Engineer (yes),Creature Handler, Commando, Ranger, Squad Leader and the rest of Jedi needs to be upgraded to the Combat Upgrade ruleset.


Non-Jedi:

Chef and Tailor needs their products repaired.


Finally... Content:

Architects, Commando, Dancer, Droid Engineer, Image Designer, Merchant, Musician, Ranger, Smuggler and Tailor needs content before we do (well, except for pearldrops fixed).




--- Cancelled 24th November 2006
Reason: The lack of multiplayer pve content and Star Wars feel.
For 3 years I have tried to find excuses to stay in game but only the expansions offered me what I subscribed for in the first place: A multiplayer Star Wars pve experience with friends around the globe. I found friends but with almost no addition of pve content they dropped out one by one. Now it's my turn.

Nothing is made thinking it might be exploited. It was players who found a way to exploit it and developers thought it is a legal way after because they don't want to do more about it.


Every system is somewhat exploitable if 'someone' actually works on it.

Would be fun if they activated the old FRS just so we have something to do...

Barely works does not mean they are not working. They are working as intended to prevent exploiting and back in DoT days of pre-cu. You may not like how they work, but it is a fact they are working. But I agree I believe if they "fix" us more, we'll get more burried into a mud of no-return.




I encourage you to go to the Fencer forum and write a topic named "Bleed works", or to the Combat Medic forum and write "Disease works".
Or you can just read their "top issues" sticky.

Poison (for comparision): 300 damageeach 10 seconds.

Bleed: 30-60 damage each 20 seconds.

Disease: Stops at -125 health after a minute.


Even Tanks have Bleed in his top priority BH issues list.

First off, I do agree that it's too early for FRS for the reasons correctly pointed out above.


On the other hand, several month without new features or content?! I think that would be a mistake. This game needs new subscribers very badly and the best way to get them is new content and new features.


Also, bug fixes need to be addresses holistically, some of them will requirerebalance, which means changing the game anyway. Take the states for example. Technically, if they start working one day it's a bug fix. BUT it will screw people who have made their decisions based on the current state of the game some time back. If I were a DEV, I'd scratch my pumpkin pretty hard before fixing this bug without giving those peoplesomething back And if Lord forbid it hurts Jedi (which I think it will), the forums site will be going down like an Amsterdam doll

Ok everyone. Here is the answer to the riddle.



Thread where I got the below quotes from







Hey, Baciacca, do the Devs ever tell you anyting? You specifically? I notice that every information post you give us is a link to another post in another forum (which has usually been on DevTracker for a day or so), and never a direct answer from a Dev to you.


1) Do you ask the Devs these things? I have to assume you do, it's part of your "job".


2) Do the Devs ever answer you?


This isn't a slam of you, but a slam of the system. Information on the FRS, pearl drops, etc. should come from a Dev directly to you. It's insulting that they can't address our issues with you, but rather then get "answered" in a hit-or-miss fashion depending what thread a Dev has happened to respond to.

The system should be made with exploiting in made.


What would happen if the monetary printing system was created by our government without counterfeiters in mind?


Everything should be created in the beginning by thinking about the worst lowest form of scum out there to prevent it from happening in the first place.


Survival instinct says to prepare for the worst. If SOE followed this in content ideas there would be a lot less bugs and a lot less exploiting.

I still say the removal of the FRS was the funniest thing the DEVS have ever done.



1) Declare Fightclubbing to not be an exploit.


2) Allow unscrupulous players to spend billions of credits buying FRS xp.


3) Wait a few months.


4) Destroy the system that unscrupulous players were exploiting, thus wasting their money.



I love it! Absolutely brilliat! A special in your face to any FRS player that tried to blackmale another player into lettig them kill them!



On a side note, we do need somthing like the FRS. But not the system they were using.


And to be fair, even though I find the above to be utterly hilarious, when they do put somthing there, I hope all the people that were affected get some kind of recompence. Yes, even the fightclubbers.
