Ranger profession needs to be more realistic. Eat one MRE a day ( not every day though ), do the mountain, desert training and atleast get 20 minutes on the darby queeen before you are elgible. Also you need a buddy to stay with at all times


Forgot to add


RANGERS LEAD THE WAY! HHHOOOOAAA

Thanks for the info TH. Any idea on what kind of timeframe for any of these ideas to make it into concept/dev cycle?



This is probably one of the most painful questions I have to deal with on a daily basis. I want the answer to be "well, now" for everything, but it can't be. There are a lot of ways we can make these changes and I am always looking for ways to push community issues with the team.


So really, the answer is, "I don't know yet". In response, what I do is I collect all the proposals and keep them both digitally and on paper at my desk. I have them indexed so that I can reference them and anytime there are design meetings or brainstorms, I bring my notes and put ideas from the community into the mix.


We'll be seeing more community input into things once we get past The Jump to Lightspeed. They might come in patched updates or even in expansion packs. There is no way to see that far into the future. What I do need though is for you guys to get the best ideas to CE (and so forth for all the correspondents) so that information is at my fingertips.



Can I suggest you make a post to the entire community about what you actually do TH. It would probably clearup about three quarters of the daily frustration towards you.






I agree very much. I'm working out those details as part of the transition now. I'll be able to make more posts and get more involved once the new hire comes in and I have more time. Currently, I'm exceptionally swamped

so while I get over the initial shock of the mandatory "my god a red name actually posted here" phase, I am thankful for that little bit of insight on what is going on (i.e. new hire, bringing our ideas to brainstoming meetings, etc.)

TH, I understand that you are the person whose job it is to communicate with us, and that the other Devs jobs are to take care of programming. Perhaps you could share with us how many devs work on SWG and what the various areas are that they all cover. It might help people understand why they feel ignored. For example, if there are 40 devs total divided amongst SWG and SWG JtL, that would only be about 1 dev per 10,000 subscribers. I know that I, personally, couldn't handle 10k people screaming at me for answers!


Thanks.

The devs look in here from time to time. They are, however, very busy. If you can't wait for changes, try another profession, but keep checking this board for information.We will get worked on some day. From now on, I will askto have all posts that ask the following questions removed from this forum:


1. Why do the Devs hate us?!?!?!!?

2. Why do the Devs ignore us?!?!?!?

3. Do the Devs even read these forums?!?!?!?


I will use the grounds, and I truely believe, that these questions do not constitute contructive posting, and therefore, go against the Forum rules/guidelines. I thank you for you cooperation in not posting these threads.




You've done it again Calc. What the hell is contructive?

I used to be a ranger. Then there was tracking and that was cool. Then I realized there was nothing else. Bottom line for Rangers? The class has very little meat. Your not getting any meat any time soon. Rangers need meat too. But other classes can get the meat way faster than you guys. And no one is going to let you know the status of your meat. It's things like this that annoy me. Takes months to fix anything. And dang it! Why can't they simply up the amount you guys harvest?! Why can't they change the bonus to healing and such? Simple number changes, yes/no?

Hiya Vorpaks! Great name! I guess I'll leave TH alone for awhile.

Really the best way to express my discontent would be to cancel. Not ready to do that yet but man am I getting annoyed. I think what it boils down to for me is that I have had more "AHHHHH CRAP!!! That's broken/Lame/Stupid/Easy to fix but not" than I have had "OH WOW!" moments. Killing my first faamba and having the ground shake was really cool. I used to go around killing only stuff that would make the ground shake. But those moments are eclipsed by the things that annoy me. Ahh well. The games still fun. Just lacks soul. I will leave now. Have the fun.

This is a serious issue we need for the hawtpants correspondent to address.
