Thread: So any word on the direction of JTL?

I agree with you, but it would be nice to have something to do PvE wise that would be worth the time as well.
Oh i totally agree with you. Contary to what some may think, im not into PvP hardcore. Heck i went overt like.. every other day, not every day. Primary reason i PvP at all is cause sometimes i got nothing better to do.
Id love capital ship or space station assaults. Something that requires 2 full groups to do, something that lobs as much cannonfire as the ISD.. MORE even.. just without the lag.

The next step for pilot is when they take away all the space zones, and we pilots all end up running around on the ground, flapping our arms, with the words "X-wing", or "Tie-Advanced" floating above our heads.
"You can also pretend to be a yt-1300, and carry jediand theitemsaround on their way to battle! This new game concept will encourage the jedi abusing "Pilots," and have much more fun for the jedi, and the pack mule... err, Pilot!"
Not to, you know, heap negativity on negativity, but did anyone else notice that the hotfix is for a jedi quest, when there are major (and I mean major) quests I paid for in the last expansion still not working?
I'll tell you the direction of JTL - dead end. We have space, it sorta works, I have a really hard time seeing them actually bothering to fix or improve the current game.
Lets be real here, this is a boat we knew we were in over a year ago. Even back then, pilots were complaining there was nothing really to do after mastering. Yeah, mastering the other squadrons was a band aid, but the reality is, what other profession out there requires you to surrender it and start over to keep yourself amused?
ROTW just made the process more streamlined with out of whack fighters from wookiee world.

Sorry mate, I didn't mean to be a dark cloud at your picnic, lol and I didn't intend to threadjack my own thread either. LOL or are you a smuggler/commando/pilot on bria too?
Don't get me wrong I still manage to have fun, inspite of and not because of the game with my friends. Mostly because we are all smartass smugglers.
it's no problem Vito.. i've been feeling the pain for so long now that when I start to get all huffy i just go grab a beer... course doesn't keep me from getting upset all the time.. but atleast i'm drinking a beer to help drown my sorrows.
Beer for all from the smugglers!! 
And Pie to.. hehe
Actually i'm on Bloodfin. I'm a smuggler(of course hehe)/MBH/ and commando 0103.. couple that with pilot and I guess you say I feel the pain..
and isn't there a rule about hijacking your own thread??

Point well made, that was an issue before JtL went live, and I believe the appeasement was that more content would be added later but they wanted to get the framework out now. Here we are almost a year later, scaffolding is still here but not much as been added.

I'm kinda unnerved at the moment, especially after Wednesday's event in Corellian Space, that I might be plateauing again.
When I came back after hiatus and got plastered in Kashyyyk, I swore off space for much more than PvE while I buried my nose in a Nova Courier, intent on demonstrating that they weren't completely useless. I'm not at Yanus's level with them yet, but I'm comfortable that I've established their functionality to some extent.
Then I came here and followed Leaph's lead into the world of A-Wing JSF killers. That gave me anothermission above and beyond content. Thatcame along with proving that I could make a modestly RE'd L6 engine competitive in the PvP arena against the wookiee world fighters with QIDs, a task pretty much accomplished. I'm not killing everyone I fight, but I've won more than enough to establish my bona fides.
