AAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!!!! Oh My Gawd... MY EYESEEES!

Never, ever, ever again will I go into Planet Chat on TC5.

As soon as I clicked on the tab I felt my IQ drop through the chair. After TRYING to follow the logic of some of the arguments I ended up with a nosebleed. My blood pressure shot up that much that my frelling nose started to bleed.

And my poor eyes? They feel like somebody has scoured them with ground glass and rinsed them out with bleach.

Some poor sod said that they quite liked the way that combat was going and that sparked off a tirade of abuse that I couldn't believe I was seeing. So, 'liking' something in the game now means that you are a brown nosed corporate, hmm, cant actually use the phrase here as it'd get me banned... and yet the morons that were spouting this bile insist that they like the game and would only quit if the dev's didn't get rid of the one shot killers and 'sploiters.... Oh, and ALL the changes in test (including the 350k health kreetles) is what the dev's think of as 'challenging' and is designed to make the dedicated gamers leave, but not the pweor gamers who all have uber swords and uber guns...

Seriously, they should have Nursey in there administering Ritalin by the bucket load.

Feel free to hate anyone and anything you want. Just please do it quietly and not flood our forums with it. If you want to do that, the jedi forum is always full of hate-filled whines and non-stop, beat-the-dead-horse-again posts. You posted something, it got deleted, you disagree. WE GET THE POINT. Trying to provoke Owens or your fellow rangers with trolling does what exactly? We don't want you to stop sharing thougthts, but if something was deleted...DROP IT. Theres a reason. Keep poking it and it will bleed and you will get banned from the forums. Please just relax, take a deep breathe, and talk about the CU like the rest of us.

Umm, just to clarify, sort of, its all over now.


And the mods have addressed my concerns to my satisfaction.


And Owen has too.


And I hope I have done the same for Owen.


From now on I will endeavour to post whilst extremely inebriated as that should curtail my exasperation and persipacity (as well as the unusual verbosity of todays messages)!


Move along, Move along!

In my opinion, based on what I've seen and read, both professions have been rotting away in the corner since launch. Smuggler was just the one that the devs like to kick in the head more often. Up until all of this CU stuff anyway. Now they're allowed to eat at the grown-up's table, while Ranger stays with the kids.






Im not too sure about that statement as Ranger skills have been degraded with pretty much every post that comes out, for examples right at the start traps were emasculated (im very verbose today!), camps were made useless as you can call pets/droids/vehicles anywhere and all other skills are not worth the SPs.


On a "bang for buck" ratio, Smuggler gets much more for its skillpoints than Ranger does! And Smuggler is not in the best of states is it!

First off, there was the artificial cap on buying FP that was just lifted recently. The interface for buying and selling FP is horrid.



With the change to the cap buying faction works just fine for me, actually selling fp/factional items (base deeds, turrets etc) has been a *major* portion of my overall income on all three chars after the GCW changes went live .

The autopull bug for slicing tools was known about on TC



Nothing else that I use that usually comes crated does autopull so I see this issue as a very small one (and you can reduce the "hassle" to next to nothing easily with some macroing).

Spices got beat down with the Chef revamp.



There is surely no longer that huge of a market but I and many others still use spices more or less regularly (the same old two spices ofc, but still thats a market). But if you ask me, players relying 24/7 on using drugs isn't really something a game with this rating can do for a long time and as such that market reduction does make sense .


MercerStorm wrote:
The Underworld tree has been exceptionally useless, especially if you're a Civilian.



Sure, and harvest bonuses in ranger are also useless if you don't hunt for ressources. Non-issue here too IMHO, it's not the fault of a profession setup if the person playing it chooses not to be able to use some of the skills.

The Master box has been blank since day one, even though it actually does confer benefits.



Cosmetical issue, nothing important.

due to Jedi abuse and BH whining, Feign Death got savaged with the nerf bat.




Yes it's a shame that it took so long to remove this annoyance from *PvP* (works just like before the recent change in PvE for me), I agree .

However this is the ranger forum, not the smuggler forum, I'll stop posting OT stuff here now, if you want to continue this conversation feel free to pm me .

i'm gonna referee this one.


you guys are using two different arguments, so you're both right.


in terms of dev interaction and specific nerfs, Smuggler has been hurt more, and been told many mistruths. Smuggler has been regressed more by changes.

in terms of overall gameplay, a smuggler by itself is better than a ranger by itself. Ranger has been underpowered more since launch.


so yeah, smugglers and rangers have both had it bad...but rangers are still gettin tha shaftarooni. but i am happy for smugglers.

This is horrible! I return to find my new title on the forum is "Jedi". What's up with that? If they wanted to confer that I'm rare and learned, they'd make my title RANGER. and then make it camo colored.

Freakin coffee filters. Why do they put 10000 of them in a pack? I make a pot of coffee every morning. I have done this almost everday for the last 4 months. I've been through two things of coffe, but i havent' even killed the second tier of filters. I get down to my last one and think I have made a big accomplishment by finishing up the second tier, but hell no the last one is actually four stuck together. Thats soemthing else, there is nothing more frustrating than wanting to get your pot of coffee started but you can't because you have to wrastle with the bastards for 25 damn minutes just to ba able to get only one. It blows my mind how corporations could make something so simple, somethig that is such a damn time sink.

Lol! That was unconstructive, bitter, AND hilarious! I thought I was a bitter person (ask anyone who has heard me rant on teamspeak), but man!
