Thread: How can you call this a balanced game when you are punishing melee right off the bat...

This game can never be balanced with the fact that ranged vs melee cannot work if all weapons are the same....you are talking in this new system that a ranged can get off 20 shots before you even get in range of a lightsaber. and that means that you have to constantly aim at your target while you are moving towards your target and your ranged opponet gets to stand in one place the whole time while shooting you.Heaven forbid if the guy moves while you areheading towards him. SOE, you are about the dumbest retards in the industry...your failures atmanaging this game are now legendary in the industry and rightfully so. J. Torres, can you even explain how its supposed to be an even playing feild when you penalize the melee characters against ranged by this gross oversight. My 9 year old daughter pointed this outto me whenI was explaining to her the changes in the game....and her response...."that doesnt make sense daddy".
also as an added note....you realize every other proffesion can fire and use weapons while they are prone and kneel...we cant. so now sniper style play on jedi is also against us because we have to stand upright just to fight and be larger targets with no hiding skills. even in the spacestation u can kneel behind crates. again jedi get screwed on the "even" abilities.

This is why I say that the jedi profession is no more. Just because someone paints an apple orange and tells you this is an orange, are ya gonna keep believing them and eat it?? Of course not. Likewise, they've taken a combination of all the old melee professions and labeled them Jedi. Of course this isn't a jedi. Take your blue glow as the hint that Jedi has died. Obi-wan and yoda always remained Jedi after they died and never took up a lightsaber again. So likewise, elder jedi should take up a new discipline and forget about trying to revive a dead profession. It just will not happen.

They have successfully(sp) removed melee from the game. By doing that Jedi is useless.
People will have the game they want at the expensive of other people.

Jedi is worthless now. About the only way to fight is to use a blaster and supplement with your (few) force powers. A commando will cut you down before you get halfway towards him in PvP.

you have a saber in your hand, you shouldnt have to turn saber block on. this is the crap I am talking about, you have to turn on things that should be automatic and for saber block to be constanly refreshed is crazy. as long as you have the saber equiped somethings shoud be automaticly equiped for the duration.

Yeah, that extra three seconds of Force Run will make all the difference.

Of course any jedi at the time this goes live gets the blue glow, no matter what profession you respec into. Essentially even if you stayed with this new "jedi" you'd still be going into a new profession and be glowy. So in essence, you can do it in any profession. This has already been explained. The glow is a reward and any jedi gets it before the NGE goes live. So indeed choose something that you haven't tried before.

If you are 64m away, it won't help enough.
