Thread: Is it just me?

Our days of 'elitism' are nearing their end. More and more BHs are picking it up (as the Jedi problem is ever-increasing), and certain fixes have rendered professions like Rifleman less potent.

I don't think it is just the carbineer boards, i think most of the SWG community is getting fed up with delay's. I guess we can take TA's word that everything with the combat revamp looks incredibly promising ... i don't think he has sold his soul just yet :-) Hopefully JTL will settle everyone down. I wouldn't really be too bothered by it though.
I can't do anything to make any of you believe me, but the Combat Upgrade does look good. I was EXTREMELY skeptical of Nova and the other Corrs reports back after the Summit and all their optimism. But after being closely involved with it now, it truly is how the game should/could have been 16 months ago.
Of course some people, ie Rifleman, won't like losing their UBER status....but this game needs BALANCE and once JTL clears SOE's plate we will be hot and heavy into just that on the Sandbox.
At the same time I know some VERY QUICK things can be changed to make a noticeable difference (maybe 10% effort for +50% reward type of things). But we will have to wait and see how much time and effort can be put into a Combat System that is being totally revamped....so no promises

Just curious to know when exactly the Combat Upgrade is scheduled for release. Maybe I'm asking for too much too fast at this point, but I remember the Devs stating it would be pushed soon after JTL.
Considering JTL is less than 2 weeks away, how soon is soon? Has the "Sandbox Testing" begun yet? We talkin' about a month here? two? three?
I mean, it's going to be almost a year if you think about it, heh.
/emote looks around
Hey, this isn't the Droid Engineer Forum. 
The Sandbox isn't open as of yet. Right now, majority of the DEV team is striking hot iron with JtL Beta. I'd say give it about 2-3 weeks from today, before hard info is released on the Combat Upgrade docs, but don't quote me on that one. 
/stumbles his way back to the Droid Engineering forum.
SOE's priorites do not match mine, i say revamp before JtL.
I don't know about the other galaxy forums, but Scylla is fading fast. 60% of the major forum members have left, losing more every day. We want what we paid for to work, I have no clue whos idea it was to put JtL ahead.
We are customers, there are many other/better mmorpgs. Many people are just waiting for accounts to expire, staying in touch on the forums, and our bitterness for SOE does in end up tainting our posts.
ps: apparently "b*st*rd" is no longer a word i can say on the internet. dear jesus what is this world coming to.
Decaffeination.
