Pistoleer Archive

I started playing SWG the day of launch and quittowards the end of October. I just reactivated my account for 1 month to see if any TLC (tender loving care) wasthrown our waysince the time of my departure. Sadly, I quickly realized that it still pales in comparison to the other combat professions. How difficult is it to throw in some additional new pistols types for Masters? How difficult would it be to allow us to dual wield 2 pistols at once? How difficult would it be to fix/improvesome of our specials? Should we all just delete our Pistoleers for BH's and Commando's and be like everyone else? I've been quietly observing PvP since coming back and I see very few (if any) true Pistoleers.

I don't mean to sound so negative, however it's going to be very difficult for me to want to renew my subscription if you guys can't live up to your promises.

you know what would be really screwed up? if it was february of 2005! i'm not a pistoleer yet but i wanted to kinda have a pistol duelist (rember the title "quickdraw artist"?that was sweet why did they change it?)type char. with good 1 on 1 duels for money and stuff. is pistoleer good for this? or sould i be something esle? rigfht now i'm swordsman/ch and i htink i'm going to give up ch for pistoleer. i just wanted to look up the problems with the proff. before i tryed to become it. i saw alot so now i'm asking if ypu can tell the avdaneges

disarmingshot2 .. .delay .... stopping shot ..kd ....... a dizzy attack in there would be spiffy ....id that happened i could ditch smuggler shots for status effects .. it'd be nice.

Didn't you know? they are too busy adding cool new stuff like geonosian labs and intresting weapons and telling players that they shouldnt hunt in certain areas because npc's spawn faster than they should so hunting there is an exploit. Doing things like this is top priority over fixing the game. Adding new things balances out the broken specials and defense stacking in the game.

/end sarcasm

All i have to say is that they are jsut telling us all this so they can get our hopes up and get another 15 bucks, I think there full o it if they were gonan fix it why didnt ehy do it in august or even before the gaem came out im sure on beta tests these problems apeard why didnt they jsut fix them then. If i didnt knwo so many people around i might jsut quit and maybe exercise. They jsut release more thing out that are broken or break and push our issue lower and lower on the ladder. like a scale on one end color our bikes, yay other end fix our special that have been broken since the game released Wow we can make our bikes pretty little colors, come on. FIX OUR PROFESSIONS IF YOU CARE FOR US!!!!!!::holds his finger over the "cancle subscrtption button"

Kras- angrey Guy who wasted moeny on this game instead of xbox live::cough::Itaccttly works cause they amde all there money on computer so they actuly listen to probems::cough::

Also i should use spell check more ofter

As I'm getting closer and closer to master pistoleer, I'm becoming more and more concerned about the profession. For most professions, the jump to master makes a world of difference. From my point of view, its starting to look less and less glamorous... I see two broken specials and some dodge mods that hardly do anything (I'll still only dodge about one out of every twenty shots). The only good thing is the speed mods (which would mean a bit more if they lowered our cap to .5...) and a nifty title. I honestly don't give if it's AOE like it used to be or not, but we NEED a ranged KD or SOMETHING to compare to the smuggler specials. They're the pistoleers who run away from people, not sit and fight. Delay is fine, as well as feign death, but an uber powerful shot and a knockdown...The devs have got it backwards. I'm not saying nerf smugglers, just that we need something to compare to what they have so we can actually make a good sized dent in Mr. Rifleman's armor. Or possibly *gasp* win against them
