Pistoleer


Pistoleer is a profession facing some pretty challenging problems. We've been told that the Combat Balance aims to fix a lot of these problems. Can we look forward to sweeping changes (revamped specials, added functionality, speed, significant number tweaking, etc), or primarily only basic bug fixes?



You can look forward to sweeping changes in terms of functionality, speed, etc. But again, I stress, we talk about this topic a great deal in a conceptual form. The rubber is going to meet the road when we bring the correspondents and other players onto the Combat Balance Sandbox server. When that happens, we’ll be able to ask all the important questions and make changes based on the answers as opposed to all this nebulous discussion (which is a result of asking specific questions before specific data is available. All I can communicate this point are goals).

i think the combat balance server is going to be the testing grounds for their new character copy system.


copy your character to the new server, so you don't have to level your profession again...

or they could have usedone of theinfamous SWGmacros:


"We're busy with[insert variable]. But the [insert proffession] revamp is next on our list."

"The Combat Revamp will solve everything."

"Just wait alittle longer."


No timeframe, no details, no commiments.



Take the blue pill,Ô
Play SWG, never dual-wield your pistols and believe whatever you want to believe.
Take the red pill,Ô
Play MxO, and I will show you how deep the rabbit hole goes.

SWG was never the game I wanted it to be, even before the NGE. All the NGE did is take away what gameplay SWG actually did have.

What about that answer can you like? It's the same thing we've been told for months. I'm amazed at how many ways TH can say "wait for the Combat Revamp".

Have to admit that's actually an answer, and one I like to boot. Cool beans, I'm for sure sticking it out with pistoleer until live CB.

did you read our question or the response?


it mentioned the combat balance, but in no way said "wait for the combat balance" since we asked a question ABOUT the combat balance
he also said the BEFORE the combat balance, on testing servers, we will see the changes that have been proposed and then test the new changes ourselvesand provide them with feedback so the changes will make the game asfun and balanced for everyone as possible
