Now that it has been awhile since the CU was released, i just want to say one thing.........I miss Pre-cu 
Pre-cu wasn't that bad, and CU isn't THAT bad; but if they just combined pre-cu w/ some cu ideas and some tweaking w/ combat #'sI believe Vets ( like myself) would be much happier and at home. ALso some of the old timers and many of my TS buds would come back.
TO ALL THE VETS: Don't you miss having working loot tables, a FRS (tho was semi-borked do to F-clubbin; slight tweakin woulda fixed it tho), the satisfaction of completely demolishing a ns camp & having descent loot to show for it..
I know we are stuck w/ the CU now, but don't you still wish you could go back.........................(also pre-cu woulda been fine if they just made tk like it is now....where armor negates the innate and psg's cant be adk'd, and make tk armor equal to 55-65% armor, that way you'd have an advantage over other proffs against jedi (like they should), but then theyd lack in areas to defend vs normal proffs).
Pre-CU wasn't that borked
Anywho I just miss the old days and needed a place to vent. BRING BACK PRE-CU, just with some CU ideas.

Ok all they had to do were three things not a full revmap called the CU:
1. Get rid of DIzzy/KD
2. Get rid of Stacking
3. Get rid of DOTs.
And there you go.

yes, its the same reason peopel now whine to : nerf stackers, doc builds, cm builds, cloak, ai, roots, snares, concussion shot, armor, slicing and so on.
Ive never forgotten what a pvper on my server said pre cu said when i told him : your not gonna be able to dent me, im a m.fencer on dodge food in 90% armor and got the answer : i have a CM alt for guys like you
pre cu everything had a counter, stackers ? bring a CM, dot wh0re bring someone with 4-0-3-0 Doc, rifleman? bring a stacker.

Please tell me if they ever fix the speed of Jedi attacks in this game. It's already a boring game combat wise, but the speed is just too slow anymore.
Everytime I load this game, I start to cringe cause I know just how weak Jedi are and having spent tons of time and money to get something that attacks so dang slow makes me wish I was eating rusty nails and washing it down with urine.
SWG proves to me that no game lasts forever. This was fun when I first started, but now I ask myself whats the point? Been asking that for awhile, but ya know it took awhile to get bored of my friends. Now that they are gone too, all I had left was that it was the Star Wars universe and I really fell in love with the story from the movies. Game should reflect the movies a tad, that is what sells the game afterall.
But you really can't say that now, can ya? Jedi sabers don't attack like they are suppose to, and the speed animation is so slow, wow I just fall asleep watching it. It made sense to me that Jedi would be included in this game. The movies never eliminated all Jedi it just merely depicted one Jedi's story, Luke's.
I think the newb Jedi and certainly the FS grinders are in for a rude shock.
Bye all! 
I might be back after this disappointment wears off.

the ppl that whine r the ppl that built all around attacking with no strategy or tactics... a bad move on their part... removing these essential skills (yes i spelled it wrong last time) uld ruin the game for those who THINK

and armor, it needed tweaking, it needed making so armor other than composite was viable, and not like it is now, ie every armor mite look different but in reality its more similar than composite was.

And most of us would take all that back after we've seen the 'Combat Balance/Combat Upgrade'.

What was there to think about with KD/Dizzy? There was no fun fighting someone who was flopping around on the floor and could do nothing, or being on the receiving end of a kd/dizzy. Basically it was the person who managed to get the kd/dizzy in who won, while the opponent lay on the floor helpless.
I much prefered the pre-CU combat system, but I don't miss kd/dizzy, at least people are given a fighting chance now.
