This thread is NOT, I repeat NOT for the purpose of stating which side of the fence you are on about this subject. We have plenty of threads about that already.


I'm just a bit miffed about not having had any kind of response from the DEVs.


Has anyone heard anything about when we may get a response from them?

I’m not surprised at all. Personally I am in favor of it, I think JTL is different from the ground game and different rules apply. But I understand that the players base is from a turn based RPG, which means many if not most will resent forced PvP in any form. So they had to know this would be contentious.


They almost certainly made a conscious decision to wait until the dust settles and see wether or not this actually works before wading in on the debate.


Remember, a twitch based game build on a turn based RPG is a completely new thing. There are a LOT of opinions out there, but it has never been done before. Once it has had a chance to work or fail then we will hear from them.

Don't hold your breath on this. We didn't get too much from them about this in beta either.

yes I would love to see a response one way or the other from the devs... Whether its yes or no, we are doing something about it, we need some kinda response fast.. it is a big issue and over shadowing alot of other important issue aswell....

You know, with other games such as WoW, and EQ2, you would think the SWG devs would step up more now. I know alot of people who are leaving SWG Sony is a huge name in the MMO market, and Star Wars is a huge license to have! They really need to step up more, get more content into this game ASAP, and communicate more quickly with their player base if they want to save this game!

I agree Raptor, the longer they ignore subjects like this which obviously needs to be addressed - one way ot the other - the better. People will get tired of waiting and leave.

It has been addressed. Next Tuesday Kessel is no longer PvP.


Case closed!
