Well...no wonder cause almost all the Melee Professions are screwed up in PvP.
uhmmm...not really....Still a lot less people online though. Normally when I get back from the club on a weekend, I'll log in for some late night SWG. Used to be that Saturdays were always poppin'...lot's of people on and whatnot. Now it just seems like a ghost town...even on the weekend.
For me they are screwed up...
The fight i watched yesterday between BH/CM and Master Defender which was about perma-snared. Mostly could hit the BH only with Saber Throw and only a few times directly with placing root on the BH for a few seconds. Now imagine any other Melee Profession there who doesn't have ranged attacks like jedi do.

There are lots of non-jedi melee weapons in Knights of the Old Republic and even in some of the movies...lets see the Magna Guards from General Grievous or the Royal Guard...so don't tell me melee isn't part of Star Wars. Melee dominated pre-cu yes...but do they have to screw it up in PvP like they do now? If you ask me...no.
Melee should not be a dominating fighting style...SHOULD NOT....you're going to change my opinion on that. And I fail to see how it is screwed up...honestly. Not every melee fighter is going to...BAM..be insta-perma snared. I've seen it happen...it's not was easy as you make it sound.
Melee in KOTOR was over-powered just like in SWG...completely stupid in my opinion.
Grievous is a super-organic-cybernetic hybrid of a being...who was trained by Sith. I can accept him using Lightsabers given who trained him. The magna guards were trained by him (most likely), and as such they would be extremely proficient with their polearms. Beyond that he was said to be an extremely bright tactician...so cybernetics + Jedi training + Lightsaber = one tough Mo'Fo. And, lest we forget...he still carried a firearm...a firearm that killed him where I lightsaber could not.
Outside of the force pikes of the Royal guard...there's very little melee' to be found in canon Star Wars. So what...we have... 2 examples? Not much of a part of Star Wars now is it?
I stand firm in my viewpoint. You want to swing abarbarian sword...go play WoW or EQ2 or whatever.
Star Wars is a world dominated by guns, and the only melee fighters who can stand up against gun fighters are the Jedi, who are possessed of SUPERNATURAL abilities and training.
The basic fact is they have made the game "unfun" for allot of people swg or not when a game becomes unfun you stop playing.90% of my friends left around 3 days after the CU.Out of the 64 people in my friends list im down to two and one of those i havent seen since i told them what the "new" jedi robes actually were.
These days when i play its allways solo and allmost allways hunting blacksun spawns because everything else has been nerfed and thats all their is to do.
this game is dead
The crafters are gone, most of the cantina people are gone (musicans etc.), the GCW was dead before it even began, theres no worthwhile loot anymore (except for bh's and even their loot is questionable), the new expansions arent even "real" planets, and as for jedi we cant make nice sabers, theirs no FRS and we have been nerfed beyond repair at this point.
And to top it all off we are paying 5$ more a month than 99% of the other more popular and better ran mmorpgs. What hope is left for this game? and whats supposed to be our motivation to look forward to a brighter future?
Im just mad i wasted a year of my life on a jedi and to have it turn out like this is downwright gut wrenchingsuch a huge time investment makes it hard to quit.
Edit: Another thing to remmember is that we are here on the forums allmost constantly so we at least have the Dev's constant lies to keep us paying. But to someone who doesnt check the forums just a reg player all they know is that the game sucks now and its time to move on
