Smugglers knew about slicing way in advance.



Yet we're left in the dark.




No, trap fixes aren't a revamp subject.







So, Owen, I know you're busy and all, but do you think you could ask them to be a little more communicative? Ask JFreeman, he seems to be posting on the CH forums a lot lately.

News flash, Hell has frozen over.


In a related story, SOE expects to have the Ranger revamp done "soon" announces GreenMarine.

Its important to note that SMugglers were actually told they were getting a revamp,on multiple occasions, by SOE.Rangers dont have such a statement yet, just a vaugue indication that they may get to us when they are done with the Smuggler's


I think the question is not "what will the revamp be?", it is "Will we get a revamp?"


Now it is really nice to hear that trapping XP will get fixed in Publish 20..thats a really good step in the right direction (that is fixing our current functionality first before chasing down new features). Hopefully that fix isnt the 'revamp'.


I have to admit that the comment of a revamp coming 'soon' make me nervous considering we have no indications of what they would revamp. I know the smugglers are still reeling over their 'revamp'. Rare loot drops indeed. It mkes me a bit scared to think of what they may tinkering with and caling a revamp.

Kinshi, you haven't been around long enough to remember the promises, obviously. There is a very old (and very abused) post from September 2003 telling us about our revamp, including several specifics....that never materialized. We, too, have been given statements from the Devs. Few have come to fruition. So there is much similarity between us and smuggler.

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.

Creature harvesting will require rare loot drops that only last for 1 /harvest.

Slicing changes, does not a smuggler revamp make. If it did, you'd have a lot of peeved Smugglers. *looks for the punchline* /shrug

They said at fanfest to expect small changes doled out here and there for smuggler, ranger, and squad leader (in that order), not a sweeping droid invasion or ID style revamp. Not that some of the introductions won't be major (ie: like slicing).

No clue yet what those are, the impression I got at fanfest was they didn't either.

But I as well want to see what the revamp will consist of...makes me wonder

The only reason that I am worried is because, the less they ask of us, the less time they are going to put into it. They need some kind of power point presentation with bulleted lists and pie graphs to understand what we want, and I bet they also want us to show them how to do it as well.

Just feel the need to jump in here to clarify that statement. We had an in-concept document posted about what the slicing changes would be. When the changes went to TC what we saw was NOTHING like the In-Concept documents, and in fact was so buggy that the GreenMarine came into our forum to announce that "Plan B" was coming into effect which further dumbed down the dumbed down TC system.


So - take any In Concept documents you see with a grain of thought and in the back of your mind think "How could this be dumbed down" and you'll be ok.


Anyway, not trying to hijack the thread here - please continue


Cheers
