They need to set the group missions to how it was before, Hi i am from naritus server and with the Devs's insane idea of a joke the economy has dropped. they are trying to keep players from leaving the game to WoW but by killing Solo groups they have cause a chain reaction that is making players want to leave, first the source. This patch that does not allow members to do the high pay missions has cause players to not get money to afford the prices of the crafters for weapons, buffs, and armor along with other things. by doing so Doctors can't get money they need to pay the artisan's for the resources needed to make buff packs, with out buffs the fighters can't kill anything and artisans that are none fighting can't stand a chance at planting good places for extractors, making it hard to make weapons and other items. I would subjest that the joke ends and devs stop killing themselfs by doing bad things that will get more people out of the game. I been in SWG since they started the server and i was able to stand for most nerfs but the killing of Solo missions that is making World of Warcraft alot more apealing. my guild members are all talking and they want to change to WoW. I have asked them to wait, telling them the combat patch will fix everything but to most people now a days they given up on SWG Devs. they keep making a new record everyday of killing the game. I myself will continue to hold hope that what ever affected the developers leaves and make them come to bring back the shine in SWG.

Another shoot-from-the-hip response from the creative-depleted dev team.


Why drop the credits on something that SHOULD take a strike force of players to destroy, when what the real solution to it was:



  • Make it require a flight squadron to destroy, by:


    • Increasing shield replenishment rates so a solo player couldn't keep up with the shield regen

  • Split the loot among all players, rather than just the player who made the killing shot, split among all players who:


    1. Are in the area at the time of the final destruction AND...

    2. scored at least 5% of the points among players qualified under #1 above.

Thanks for killing the group content for Deep Space instead of fixing it. Expect no less at this point.

i still say they are dropping with this patch the amount of players, they first they break the Mission with this patch to enforce players to play JTL they increased the amount to take down a spacestation. this nerfed mission terminal update, okay so you get 300 credits per mission. they are trying to get people to JTL wich in turn is making all other proffecions useless. our guilds are no longer selling weapons cause of the cost rate or because people are out in space because Dev's are trying to push people to play JTL by destroying solo groups. okay i would like to know how doctors buff ships? like i said the nerf of dev's on Solo mission is destroying their game. that is like the last straw that broke the camel's back. if we now want good missions we have to go BH wich means there will be too many Bounties and Jedi will cry again to the developers wich in turn will cause another nerf that will make people even more mad and then by the time the Dev's realize it they will only have to monitor 3 people perserver cause that will be the population in the game. our guild is going to makeour guild in another gameif the Dev's shoot themselfs in the foot with this combat balance. bring the solo group back or let people be able to have their 33k missions without grouping and you will be able to keep what you have left of members playing. I am still devoted to this game, this game rocked before but it went in a spiral down, your not loosing members cause of the new game, you are loosing members cause of all the nerfs you done. i talked to most in my server because i am always helping everyone and i hear them talk about how dev's patches have brought down economy, one of our best and most well knownarmor seller moved to WoW because of the Nerfs. with no solo mission to get them credits people don't even want to PvP cause of the thought of having their armor broken.

I'm sure some of the player base will thank you for this latest hotfix; however I will not.

I haven't been able to play this game with any satisfaction since Publish 11.5 made its infamous debut. And the more complaints I see about sorting discrepencies the less I see feedback about it. Crafting is abominable now. Today I was finally able to "break code" so that my crafting macros would work again after three one-hour sessions of testing schematic numbers one-by-one. It seems to me after a long invetsigation of your new sorting strategem that there in fact is not a choice available to sort by schematic number as before the last publish.

As a result I have lost most motivation to play this game seeing how my character is mainly focusing on crafting as of right now. I thought for sure that this would be the next addressed hotfix but alas it isn't.

This is my /bug. Please fix it, so that I can enjoy this game again.





Ohh, Puddin, your grinding macros are broken, why bother playing if you actually have to do something!


And some other whiner here talking about "I don't even come out of my house for 20k", good! Stay Home!


Let the rest of us RPG'r play.


As for the actual topic here, I wouldn't have any opinion, haven't made it to deep space yet.


But I would love for there to be real live space content tied into real live ground content.


You know, you start a mission here, grab some junk from this guy, hop in your ship and take off todeliver it to that guy, and along the way, bad guys are trying to kill or stop you.



My 2.5 credits worth.


Bahhh, Merry Christmas!!! Happy Life Day!!!

oh and for your response on that just hopping on a ship and going to shoot stuff? its not that easy, the game out in space is so glitchy you can't even finish the missions sometimes. there is times you get to the mission and it will go "Mission Fail" as soon as you get there. or I had Imperial ships attack me and I am Imperial. or I shot ships and their life does not go down. like i said the JTL is still buggy as hell I am pilot and after 2 days of playing I started just using my ship for travel. Space missions are senseless also, and Ships warp when you are shooting at them, if one ship takes off when warped your mission fails. and by warping i mean you are shooting at it and it disapears and apears far away. now you might say "oh you have lag!" nope I have:


Cable connection

Pentium 4 3.6Ghz

DDR ram 1 ghz

videocard 256 ATI

120 Gigabites hardrive

in my laptop, an alienware


I am an ITT student doing my batchelor's so i know how to keep my computer running at 100% speed and belive me its not a problem with the hardware its a problem with the software.

a developer's pet it seems. well that 75k update that just came out is crap, I have JTL. but if you notice they only gave it to JTL people. Like I said, they are trying to push their update on people by nerfing SWG. now you say i am a whinny person, think about it I am no Rebel whinning about how I am a rebel and even thought rebels are suppost to not have alot of defence and should not be equal imperials cause i am a band of people running from a big Empire, yet I want things to be equal. or I am not a Jedi that is whinning cause Bounty hunters kill my ass and I log off when a bounty hunter comes to my house, so i want bounties to be nerfed so i can stop whinning and think my self a powerful person now that Bounty hunters can't hunt me. I am an imperial that hunts rebels and If i get killed then I am not pissed off with all this Nerfs. but to try to buy off people with 75k to forget about the solo group? keep your 75k and give us back the 30k missions. If you want to be a dev pet you can for me? I want to keep the dev's from shooing people away from their game.
