HA!
Keep dreaming.
I got that info from the MOUTH of a dev working on OUR REVAMP.
Seriously, if that's not good enough for some people, I don't know what is.
/feh
I'm in a bad mood today.
umm, I think they've "announced" a Smuggler revamp at E3 or Fan Fest every year since launch haven't they? 
I'm not holding my breath for them to actualy deliver this time.
Not being pessimistic, just realistic.

Yep, last year, we were promised a revamp.
What most people don't think to look up is the fact that we said NO to the revamp placed in front of us around July of last year. It wasn't good enough. We said we'd wait for a better deal, because they were too busy to really get into making Smuggler a decent content profession.
Jedi were first.
The CU got pushed back.
Then JtL came.
Then the CU went live.
Then RotW came out.
Now, it's our turn.
Why in god's name is that so f*cking difficult for people to understand? 
Which is a lot different.
Yeah, they may be saying things premature. But it's a heck of a sight better than anything else we've ever gotten out of them.
We know this. If you were to actually read our forum instead of come here posting incessant rambling you would know that the slicing part of our revamp is rumored to be scheduled in the next major publish after publish 17.
And furthermore...

Pity we have to wait a bit longer though i do like the stuff they have planned and the new vehicles are fairly cool so i dont mind since it adds a fair bit to the depth of the game.
I would rather they get the system right and then push it out rather than just do it quickly, i left for a long time to work on becomming a jedi now my alt (or as i call my main lol) is master smuggler again and even despite not feeling like a smuggler at times the promise of a revamp has me coming back and ive waited a long time for a revamp i can wait a couple more weeks.
If you guys are going to take anything a dev says as rock solid fact, then you need to rethink where you put your trust. I went through the CH revamp (nerfage), the Jedi Revamp (straight kick to the crotch), and 75% of the time that TH comes out and announces something great and exciting is in the works, it either A) doesn't happen or B) isn't as great and exciting as he says it is.
Yes there are a bunch of issues in this game. It has more bugs than the original release of SWG. But Smuggler is around for 3 things only. Faction, Spice and Slicing. 2 of the 3 are broken at the moment (stacking spices is not right). So when 67% of the profession is broken and one of them being a major source of income since everyone wants something sliced, then it should be on the front table.
And I am saying this even though I do have a master chef and a jedi guardian.They have issues and heck, my chef is losing money cause all the artisan's foods are better than mine unless I can grind her to master artisan (which I cannot cause she is also a Master BE).

F*ck that, F*ck that, and F*ck that.
Smuggling has absolutely nothing to do with any of that.
Check the name of the prof. Says what we're supposed to do. Guess what, never been able to.
CH nerf? Well gee, at least it WAS overpowered for a while. Jedi "nerf"? Well hm, that alone is debateable, but what's Jedi about? glowing swords and magical powers. Guess what? Jedi's always had that.
Comparing ANY nerf to Smuggler needing slicing fixes is just wrong. The slicing revamp is not a FIX to slicing. Guess what? Guess why they haven't "fixed" slicing after the CU? Because they intended the old slicing to suck, because it's not compatible with the CU. The slicing revamp is about making some sh|tty thing that it's assumed we all just LOOOooOOOOVE to do, a little more fun for us. Don't expect the slicing "fix" to increase the number of slicewhores out there. It won't. In fact more and more, smugglers, especially ont his board, are abandoning slicing for others, and using it just for their own ends.
Hmmm, maybe Veela's melancholy is catching ...
