Thread: When do we get ours

My patience is wearing thin with the Devs. Why is it that Image Designers get 2 patches devoted to them and professions such as the Ranger has not seen anything significant in at least 3 months...snip...
Correction: 9 months. We have not had any significant change in 9 months. /conceal and /areatrack were added in August, last year. Any other change for us was really due to revamp of another prof., and the effect was indirect, i.e., nothing in your skills have changed. You could make an argument for a fix to the requirements for the Camo Kits, but that was to enable Lok Camo. Hardly a significant patch.
We have had nerfs, hard as it is to believethey would do that.
Sorry if that makes you all even more depressed...
Umm, yep 
I fully agree with what is said. Give us a reach around at least!
We're not alone. Unless you're a Jedi, you're pretty much gonna be ignored till the combat revamp and JTL or after.
Personally, I feel bad for the poor smugglers. They were actually promised a revamp soon. It's now been delayed a couple of times, possibly into 2005 at this point. They are not a happy bunch right now, theircoresponent is sounding as though he's gonna leave the game.
Makes me almost glad nothing was promised for us, so at least we aren't let down when things don't happen.
and we can trap a krayt? I have thrown hundreds of traps on krayts for the off chance of getting one to stick... and to date, i only have had 1 stick
yeah. i understand....

SOE and Lucasart are commercial enterprises. They are supposed to maximize return on investment. They'll priortize Whatever can produce most bang per dev resource devoted to it.
JTL, of course, is an obvious priority. It adds a totally different game experience (flight sim instead of rpg, real-time instead of hybrid, etc) and has enough cachet to bring in new customers.
Other choices seem more haphazard: wookie armor because of the noise they made (I may be wrong here) or ID because it is supposed to appeal to that elusive demographic, females?
In this light, when will Rangers get dev resources? When we all pretend to be pre-operationals with an attitude, I will hazard a guess.
Seriously though, I think all players (not just rangers) should be asking for more SWG dev resources to be budgeted by SOE. unfortunately, the only two ways this will be allowed by beancounters is a) if enough players leave the game to hurt them or, b) if they see a significant revenue opportunity.
Ok, on my count, everybody drops their account for a month to send a message...one, two, ...
