You mean they are not talking to you?



But seriously, there is this Tattooine Mystery quest for entertainers, so I think it should be possible to create missions for crafters as well. But named quest is neither especially exciting, nor is the reward really worth the trouble. (Wheee, I got a T-shirt... literally!)

Because it's just plain silly to have to knit a sweater in order to get good loot?

You dont have to knit a sweater...Why not Bulk order deeds or somthin...Like a Vendor wanting so many Guns or so many Lances and then combining them in a bulk order and boom..Getting your reward for the order...Just like Big Buisness's now or day...NPC vendors could give orders they need artisians to make.....Beside...they dont have knitting on SWG anyway Tard!

It was a euphamism... "tard".


Bulk order deeds. I take it you used to play UO too?


The thing is this.. it's supposed to be risk vs. reward. To reap the reward, you have to take a risk. Crafting isn't a risk.


Besides, making non-combat missions that are fun aren't easy. And you can see by SWG's track record that the Devs aren't very good at it.

the main point here is anything that takes the devs more than 5 seconds to code isn't going in unless its in an exspansion.

Ok..Point Takin On the Devs...And Yea I played UO...Heck I didnt think anyone could be worst than OSI...LOL...But mabye they can huh???



Hell Even OSI respected the way merchant skills work in the game...Hell....I just thought they shoulda made the artisian skill a little more rewarding ...At least weapon and ArmorSmith's.....If im not mistakin The Merchant skill that makes the most Credits or rewards is the Tailor skill...LOL...Damn thats bad......SWG artisians is takin after Tommy Hilfigure...lol



And I know I spelled Hilfigure wrong... (Bows)

Some day soon I think the Devs of SWG will do what the Devs of UO did.... and shut down their forums.



I mean hey... they don't talk to us now, right?

I played UO for 5 years. I started in the beta.


Talk about getting ganked... back in the early days it was crazy. I did get really good at sneaking around and running from PK's, though. Nothing like seeing a red name nearby to get the old heart pumping.

so in UO, people could go around killing anyone whenever they wanted??

that sounds crazy! but at the same time would probably make a more interesting game.
