Hmmm... maybe it's just the cynic in me, but they seem to be showing a lot more non-Jedi screenies now. I wonder if the massive outcry over "that jedi expansion" actually got noted by someone... considering 3 or 4 of the first 6 screenies were all about jedi, and everything since ... isn't.

I'd have thought it was just somebody doing /combarea if it wasn't for the following tell tale symptoms...

NO ARMOUR!!

Cool clothes without being 'too flash'.

Sneaking up behind one of those big bug things, clearly trying to figure out how to milk it.

Standing with a pile (okay, three) dead critters, clearly trying to figure out how to harvest it

Ah, and the other big give away? Starts off in a group with a bunch of armoured, armed, ruffty tuffty types, ends up out in his all alone wandering about going /combarea


Disappointed to see folk walking/kneeling on the 'red hot cinders' or, like that twi'lek, standing in a lava shower. I do hope they were taking damage. TOAST!

The sad thing is it shows exactly where SOE feels they must focus. When they first released Screen Shots they coudl have mixed in a good number of those but instead they chose to heavily focus on the Jedi screens and aspect of trials.It appears that a huge outcry from the community led to some quick thinking to try and calm the masses, after allthe heavy hand of LA is behind this effort. Or would you have me believe that someone calmly passed there issues to a Corr and he passed them along queitly to Tiggs and so on till someone said "oh gosh lets put some nice pics of non jedi up"

I think you'll found that that is a Lucas Arts site. As such I suspect that somebody at LA's publicity department, or maybe even just a webdesigner given a folder of images and told to put together a screenshow, put it together.

IF SOE's logo appears on the pix, and tbh, I can't be bothered going back to look, that'll be for some corporate legal reason.

Well, the caption on the last pic says 'erupting lava threatens explorers blah blah blah.' It just doesn't say whether the threat is damage to their character or an annoying tendency to mess up gameplay, like those damnable lightning nebulae in space.

Actually, some corrs DID calmly post about this on the corr forum....Way to find controversy in everything (wait...that was controversial of me to say ).

We seem to be travelling backwards in time...notice the squads of CLONE troopers? Maybe we will go back far enough that they will initiate Order 66!! /drool

I can think of worse things to happen in game, Calc. I might even break out one of those sets of Clone Trooper armor I got... I have 1 of each, so I can even pretend to be a dirty reb if I want, heheh...
