I'm prone and "concealed", crawling towards an NPC. As soon as I'm in range (65m), the NPC goes into combat mode and starts running towards me. My T-21's "headshot" misses, of course, so I stand up....In the time it takes me to stand up, the NPC is already hitting me with melee attacks from 30 stinking meters away. During the "recycle" time of the T-21, I pull out my scatter pistol but before I can fire a shot, I'm incapped and db'ed. This has happened more than 2 dozen times within the past week. What is the stinking deal???

The melee system on this game sucks.

SWGs player positioning system is the worst I've seen in any MMOG, and I've played a few.


Youcan never really be sure where you areand where othersare, this can be seen when you kill someone and they slide for another 30m while they are dead. Or when a BH hits you with eyeshot from 75m out.


(And no this is not my connection, it works just fine thankyou.)
