ive been looking at the jedi boards,server boards alot lately,and seems like everyday theres another person who has quit the game,mainly vets and its all for the same reasons,they're unhappy with the way we have been and are being treated by the developers of SWG and the implementation of the CU which in many peoples eyes will be the death of this game,i decided to do some surveys on different server forums,my own kauri,the big 2 ahazi and bria as well as the jedi forums,the survey was asking what peoples preferences were pre-CU or post CU,the answer was almost unanimous,at least 98% of the replies were for pre-CU the occasional chef or something would post and say he/she prefers the CU but that was definetly the exception and not the rule,now,my point is people are leaving the game on a daily basis and the ones that are hanging around for the most part are miserable and dont enjoy what the game has degenerated into,so i ask you this,how much longer will the massive amounts of players who are unhappy keep on paying to play a game that they dont enjoy?,imho its only a matter of time till the massive of amounts of players left that are unhappy wake up one day and decide that this game is no longer worth the money and time it consumes,basically that means we have a major problem,SWG is on a ticking timebomb of destruction unless the devs use their common sense,and realise this,and not only realise it but act on it ASAP to save the loyal players that are left from cancelling their subscriptions,for that to happen some major changes need to be implemented which im going to outline,ill be honest,some of these suggestions are based on personal preference,others are based on what i truly beleive will help save our beloved SWG
in my opinion the CU has brought some good things,mainly bad but some good things too,so my proposal is we get a game that is merged with the good elements of the CU and pre CU combined,ill also state that this list isnt set in any specific order,im just gonna type it as it comes to me
1) fix premiums and flawless to drop so everyone has a fair chance at the brass hoop,franky i dont care if the developers dont want us farming them,we pay to play this game and if we want to farm krayts for high end loot then that should be our decision,not theirs
2) give us back the combat queue
3) get rid of the combat level and damage multiplier so we can solo again if we want to,i beleive alot of the resentment towards SOE now comes from the fact that we've been forced to group to do anything worth doing,no-one likes being forced to do anything or being told what to do
4)get rid of elemental damage or at least bring in ALL the other named crystals,seeing nothing but sunriders and banes hearts is so reduntant now
5)give us back the old combat system,this root and snare system is a joke and makes no sense whatsoever,the speed of it too is mindnumbingly slow,however the one thing that should be kept from this system is the need to use other specials so we dont have to spam dervish over and over,a little variety will make the pre CU system better than its ever been imho
6)bring back TEF's for everthing,this to me was the first step in the wrong direction that SOE took,if a BH jumps my friend,its so unrealistic to expect me to stand there and watch and not do anything about it,also if someone comes to my city covert and kills my NPCs for faction and loot its lame that i cant kill him for it if im overt,if someone makes their faction affilitation so readily apparent then they should be in danger from the enemy,this is supposed to be a war not a carebear fest
this is all i can think of for now,im sure ill amend this and update it when i think of more things, and please by all means add suggestions and opinions,but i ask you to please keep the flames to a minumum,we have hundreds of other threads we can flame on without doing it on this one
thank you for reading this,i sincerly hope that the developers heed these words before its too late
