Hahahahaa!!
That was great for a laugh!
I'm sorry, but I just cannot imagine going back to pre-cu. Sure there are problems, now, but there were problems then. Dont you rembmer how combat was? It was all macroed. I never had to think, never had a chance to use my suprior intelect. Who had the fastest and best gun won.
COMPLETE AND UTTER NONSENSE
and spewing that you just proved your "suprior intelect" is non-existant....
pre-curb combat was much harder to master than the current slow-motion healing-centric combat, the really dumbed down the combat....and you seem to be part of the target audience for the dumbening

No need to get hostile.
The only real problems I have with the CU are the stupid effects that are really useless, like the blinking light over someones eyes when they're blind - just looking at the icons under their name is plenty of effect for me. That and my bigger complaint that they went off and changed so many of the blaster bolt colors, saying "Red is Energy" and "Kinetic is this ugly dirty white color".
I'd hardly say combat pre-CU was harder when all you needed was a set of Composite armor and Doctor buffs, then go toe to toe with a Krayt Dragon all day long and not break a sweat. Although there are some issues post CU, overall it's a lot better than the issues we had before the CU in my opinion.
I want the REAL CU. The one they showed us but Lucasarts made them scrap because it was "too complicated."
Give me complicated anyday. 3 bars, weapon settings, and all sorts of other things that they scrapped to make a CoH clone combat system. Only not as interesting.
Come on guys, can u pls answer my question?
Talking about past wont change things.
Greetz,
Jac
But here we go.
Things that can break feign:
Healing
Touching any movement key/mouse button
A slight breeze
Attempting to use certain specials
The vernal equinox
Shouting very loudly
Space aliens
Feigning death
Trying to Feign death while already feigned
Dying
Jedi farting
The fickle whim of the Devs
And that's just the short list. Fact of the matter is, the Devs won't say whether something is a bug or intended until they absolutely have to. Just assume it's working as intended, Wes has known about this for months, he's asked for answers. If he gets them it will be included in the stickies.
Who said anything about going back to pre CU?
I said there was a reason for the CU, and this reason had nothing to do with balance.
Smuggler would be better balanced as a combat profession if FD worked like it used to.
People still dabble professions to stack defenses, which the CU was supposed to end...I think the CU was implemented to make the game easier and cheaper to program and maintain. If you notice they're streamlining all the crafting more and more every patch...soon we'll be able to hit one button and get the message "YOU MADE A FULL SUIT OF MANDO ARMOR" There are still just as many bugs and imbalances as there were pre-CU. Bla bla...don't take my word for it, play the game and see.

Now though, just tonight I was dueling a master brawer, master TKA, master 2 handed pike 3440 and I'm a master smuggler, master SL, pistols 0004. I was grouped so I could use volley fire. Guess what, I beat him. No foods, no heals no armor (but he has innate). How you say? Because I'm a smart guy. I would root and kneel, volly fire and trade off bodyshot and reckless. Then as he was getting near the end of his root, I would hit him with (the one that allows stat effects to stick more often, dont remmber the name) and snare, then go for concussion. If I missed with cuncussion I'd go for panic, while kiting of course. Btween the two I would usually hit. THen I woudl wait for my root to ocme back. Sometimes it worked better then others (like when you miss your root sucks) but you know, I beat him with basically one proffesion, and he had more like 3 and a half. You couldn't do ANYTHING like that pre-cu.
