Yeah, upsetting as it is, I'm trying to think of it this way,we know from reports it IS being worked on, right now, by good ol' Greenmarine himself, apparently, and has been for a good few weeks, and that by not appearing in this publish, it isn't because we are being passed over... but its simply not ready yet.


What we are getting is a significant code change, most of the things in Pub 17 are more or less fixes and additions to current systems,and a bit of new art for new speeders. i'm suprised its taken so long tomake thespeeders multipassenger, tbh.

I don't like this at all.

I mean... sure, MP vehicles are nice, but... buggy content is about as good as no content at all. I still can't move items up in my mining ship (which renders it completely useless since all I want out of it is a floating house) and pretty much everyone in my group was falling down the "bridges" in the Rryatt trail today once in every 10 minutes. Not to mention that you can't attack the Gotal hunters down there at all unless you do some really really complicated maneuvers. And other stuff like that.

I'd rather have half as much actual working content than twice as much of this half-done stuff...

Why would they push the revamp through IMMEDIATELY after the CU and ROTW? Of course theyre going to focus on pushing forth fixes and so forth... But they really should have a Friday Feature for smuglers...

come on now... smuggler revamp? when would it have been worked on?

I can't wait for it either, but with everthing else going on, with so much from the CU and the expansion still being the focus of staff... RoTW boxes not even out yet... I would be afraid of how crappy it might be if we got it today

Bug fixes come first, then revamp.

It's not really a case of we've been passed off for development of something else; if there'd been say, another chef revamp as this publish, then yeh, I'd agree, but it's a bunch of fixes and tweaks along with a very cool new feature (thousands of players can now chant in unison the age old galactic speeder chorus, "Are we there yet?" ! ).


I had hoped there would be something for slicing in there somewhere, but I guess not. I guess there's a chance that there's more to come for this publish, but I won't be holding my breath.

Does this mean we can do drive-bys now?
