Thread: ARC170
Edit:
On that note, I figured out why the wookiees are raging... they're upset about all the bugs in this expansion too....

Which I wouldn't mind, but it's 150k Mass, which seems pretty small considering you need three people to use it to the fullest extent.
you have a good point, oh well better start getting good kit for my RGI or getting an oppressor, im getting fed up of flying non imp ships etc, and getting the ARC was just something to do i guess, im going through a phase of being excessively bored of this game, maybe ill try and get every pilot squad badge

Well bordeom is a good reason to change sides.
I thought you were going to do it for the ARc, then switch back.

It's hard to sayanything about theARC-170 .
The ARC-170 is still badly bugged. It's forward firing gun slot is useless. If the ARC-170 weren't bugged then I would say that it's better than the jedi star fighter and here's why.
1. Although it has extra gun positions for 2 extra players, it's an excellentsingleplayer fighter.
2. While not as fast as the jedi star fighter, it's still very fast and is the most maneuverable attack /fighter in the game.
3. It's mass is very good.
With high level quality ship components and 2 extra players, the ARC-170 should be a fantastic ships. As I've said above, the ARC-170 is badly bugged. This bug makes the ARC-170 almost useless.
What pisses me off is that the ARC-170 has been bugged since it was live in the game and still hasn't been fixed. It's been almost 3 months now and the damn thing is still not fixed! This is so typical of SOE. Since this game was launched 2 years ago, it's been 30%-40% broken. The CU was supposed to not only add ballance but also fix things like the pistoleer profession. Now that we have the CU, we have just as many things that are broken in this game. Other than SWG, I don't know of a single MMORPG that has as many problems as SWG has. If it were not for the fact that SWG is based on the star wars universe, this game would of tanked a long time ago. What other reason would people stick around and suffer through SOE's massive nerfs and game breaking changes all due to their lack of vision on where they were taking this game?
