Well from reading all of these links, I have to say......this new change seems like the best thing to happen to SWG. I'm just confused on when the changes are coming, is it in a couple weeks, or 6 months?

I really don't know what I'm going to do at this point.


Many people have worked countless hours to get a full template Jedi or got their other characters exactly where they want them.


To get my Jedi for instance:


1. Camped for hours to get holocrons.


2. Did 21 professions before uber armor and buffswere available and finally unlocked on Carbineer.


3. Suffered thru Saber TEF and a very poor oringinal Jedi system.


4. Put my Jedi on the shelfin the hopes of the Jedi revamp (Publish 9).


5. Tested Publish 9 extensively and pleaded with them not to release the FRS the way it was because it would not be supported on live servers.


6. Watched them push publish 9 out and converted my Jedi the first time to a new system.


7. Nearly finished grinding then put my Jedi back on the shelf because the FRS was a joke to me.


8. Finsihed grinding before the Combat Upgrade in the hopes they would get it right.


9. Watched them push the CU live with a ton of bugs and converted my Jedi a second time.


10. Watched people grind Jedi in two weeks with double XP.


11. Got used to the CU after some time and finally found my Jedi to be fun to play.


12. Now, after all this time and work, they are changing it again only to make it available to someone at the very beginning.


Jedi isn't the only thing either. I am going to miss the current crafting system. Right now I have Atrus as a Ranger / BE and was looking forward to the Ranger Revamp. What was that anyway? Why even post about of revamp if it was not even an intention to have it?


BE's will be gone. The Jedi I have put a countless amount of time into is going to be nerfed like never before. I was the 2nd Master Squad Leader on Lowca with Atrus (that I know of anyway) and thought the new SL system was great. I spent a year and a half as a Master Creature Handler before finally giving it up for crafting and where has that gone with these changes? What will I be? What is left?


After two years of playing this game I will be completely lost. SWG no longer exists with these changes. This is something completely different. And although I have had a love/hate relationship with this game, I will miss her deeply when she is gone.


I can only hope SWG2, which is what this is basically, will be as much a friend to me as the oringinal.

I found the answer myself. But I have another question: If there is no decay, what will crafters do? And what will happend to ADKs? Ok, that was 2 questions...

What's really funny is that the F13 article says these changes were coming 6 months down the road. Did these guys know about these changes 6 months in advance? If the info was given to them at the convention (as I think the article alludes), I'm amazed they kept this tight a lid on things.

speak for your yourself, the cu was great. the old was cm/mind hit happy with dots that were insane. no challenge there...my jedi could take on 4 bh's at once. and now "good" bh's is plenty to handle. not sure if ill like this new system though...sounds like my 35 adk's and 4 perfect pearls are gonna go to **edit**....

So the combat is more twitch based, which means that I have to miss out on the action that I like, since my ping is at about 200... Transferring to another server is not an option since I have buddies on Radiant... Still, I'll give this a shot...

A mix of an FPS and an MMORPG... Im all for it. I love the changes. After mastering every profession and having done just about everyting in game the new life this will bring is very much welcome. This is innovative and exciting. I guess we all now know why we havent heard much from the devs in the past few months. It wasnt ToOW, it was a new game entirely.
