It won't happen in the CU (that's the official name btw, apparently some red names aren't too keen on CURB), but who knows? we may get it soon after. Guess we'll have to wait and see.

same issue with slicing... all this waiting and then we're gonna get 2 changes / upgrades / item updates / pre-"nerf" situations in a row(?)

Hehe yeah CURB is a bit of a dig on the lack of clear name for a long time I can see how this might irratate some Red Names.

Wes, you used THAT word; "we may get it soon after".
Let's hope that's the regualarly used 'soon' and not the TM 'soon'.

Well, it's all relative (I think in publishes rather than minutes...at least for SWG development 
), but they seem commited to getting this to us (while details may change; see Tiggs' disclaimer), so short of something drastic needing to be done elsewhere, I think soon is an apt description.

From the fact that one modification increases the chance of "critical strike", which does not exist in current weapon values, i would assume that the system is comming along with the CU.
It can't work before the CU, due to the weapon property not being present already. Since reworking weapons several times in a limited time not only means extra work for balancing but also bears the risk of really disappointing some people, it doesn't really make sense to do it in two steps. (Two times reworking the weapons would probably mean two nerfs on uber-weapons within short time.)

I am just worried that they will create the CU and strip us of all our remaining skills until the smuggler revamp finallyarrives.

combat upgrade/rebalance = CURB
I say, let the man call it what he wants
I like CURB and I'm going to keep calling it that, just for spite.

since then we would lose the faction-buying, the perk-discount, the slicing... hmm that's about it atm
but we would still have the Master smuggler tag(at least those that didn't drop it, or didn't get it (yet))...
