Its sad that the GCW revamp had to get pushed back to a "a week after the world ends" just to try to get JTL out this year, when in fact JTL has no chance of shipping this year. This could turn into a PR diaster for SOE and LucasArts.

CPU: AMD 64 3200+ (2.2 Ghz)
RAM: PNY PC3200 1GB

They told us that the SE would be introduced a year to year and a half after launch. That the SE basically completes the game...this is STAR wars afterall. Well so far they have pretty much stuck to this and have decided that getting the game completed is more important then fixing and tweaking things. (That's what the combat balance was supposed to be remember? But then all the nerf herders brought up more and more little annoyances and pipe dream wants that the devs felt a need to accomplish)


God, if they decided to push the revamps to come out next month and have the expansion come out half a year late they'd get flak from you for pushing the expansion back so much. And you'd whine your ass off about a lack of content. Guess what the SE comes with? Megabytes of new things to do on top of a massive twitch fight.

What is the point of this here if you want to complain about the GCW or the combat revamp then go to the right borads plz.


Also you do know that JTL was promised to us way before GCW and the combat revamp, so why should they push JTL back?

because the GCW is supposed to be part of the working game you know SWG an empire divided........... the game we were promised at launch.


if the core elements of the game are broken in SWG what makes you think addin an expansion to it is a good idea


but hey with the way this game is going it wont matter

You all do know diffrent teams are working on each thing? The people doing JTL are not hte people doing SWG. Its same company, but not reallt the same people. So don't flame at the devs!





yes, my name is stupid.

Plus as stated most of the players want JTL finished and out before the GCW or combat revamp, there was a poll about it but i can not find it now but the result was most people want JTL first.

You have no idea, do you?? As we can all see the Expansion is way ahead and on Scheduel from what we have seen and from their schedual, they said theyl get it out this year, and by the looks of things thier on track on doing so, and thiers nothing that can really stop them.


Also what you dont seem to take into account is that JTL is much futher in Development and to being completed then the Combat or GCWRevamp or other Ravamps, they saidf they had 70 peple working on the Expansion, so once the expansion is done the Combat/ GCWRevamp and others wont bge far behind once those or the majority are working on Revamps. Also a Fact is that JTL will change the way combat is done totaly with in SWG, most people will be going in Space to Combat rather then on the ground, or thats what I forsee.


Also another FAct is SoE/LA are doing a much better job with JTL due to thier experience with SWG already and some one mentioned Planetside, so quite your bickering and doomsday forcast'S and trying to draging people down that really want this Expansion and have been looking forward to it for a long long time.
