i am a jedi on corbantis. i have played since launch and i would like to clarify for everyone why the game is the way it is.
in a continually advancing game with new locations and new content, nerfs would not be mandatory. ( problem with this is, the game would have to have been balanced since launch ) due to the fact that they need to fix rules and bugs continued content was not made and the increase in play knowledge and loss of new and exciting things do do has made a choke point in the game. this is almost impossible to recover from unless the developement team is equal to or greater than the players, and access times... meaning the devs would have to work 24/7 to keep up with the game. since this is not possible, all games hit a "end game" shelf life... which as i mentioned the day the jedi were revealed, that the end game would be Jedi vs. BH.
i hate being right on a game as cool and as limitless as star wars. but unfortunately all mmo's just like the rest of the games, must have a finish. this game is not dead, but rest assured it is commatose. and it's only a matter of time before another game will come and sweep everyone away.... there were rumors of WOW, but that game sux. blizard needs to stick to making another diablo and stay out of the MMO indusrty. also there was rumor about matrix online... but that game did not have the content of star wars so it couldn't pull the people... my guess is when dungeons and dragons online comes with a pvp mmo. or middle earth online does the same, most people will move to the newer game in search of entertainment and continued content... sure some people might stay, but it will be the people who enjoy the game for being starwars. and once the numbers reduce the game will begin to have life breathed back into it.
as for the current game system. people want to nerf jedi all over the place because jedi are too powerfull (as they should be) i say to them, did anyone have a problem that yoda WTFPWNED the two gaurds that stood in the doorway to the emperors chamber in episope 3? did anyone have a problem with obi-wan kenobi jumping down into a circle of droids and ending up killing greivous? did anyone mind when anakin and obi-wan landed on greivous' ship to save the chancelor and kill the sith dukku? jedi were powerfull because their connection to something that they had trained since childhood. if people wanted someone to stand up to the jedi then they should ask for the devs to bring in the mandalorians. other than that, the starwars universe was dominated by the power of the jedi and more so by the sith.... though the corruption of the sith caused their own demise.
the jedi should have never been nerfed, nor should anything have been nerfed in the game.... the origional content was about what the game was meant to be, everything else was a change meant to keep money comin in from all the people who have subscriptions. what's worse is that SOE makes changes that the customers do not ask for... they have no contact from the developement team that states what ideas they have. which if they did they could receive feedback before working on a cange that would kill the interest of the popular opinion.
well im done ranting off for a bit.... lookin forward to some flamage or response in general.

you cant compare this game to the movie, or everyone that was Imp would be a Carbineer and in stormtrooper armor, no swordsmen or fencers or TK. and we would be perma overt all the time...

jedi-nonjedi open pvp is the problem, private war where we only fight other jedi is the only solution for makign us powerful, this private war shoudl be started by the frs and thats where the power should lie. With a jedi knight beign 2x as powerful as a padawan which is 1.5x as powerful as a regular profession, with guardian beign 1.5 knight and master 1.5 guardian. so true power comes form the frs and therefore jedi retain there strenght without haveign to fight nonjedi.
