The YKL-37r "Nova Courier" has the cockpit placed in the port pontoon. If you click on my name in my signature, you'll see a picture of me in the cockpit, with the bow in the background.

Bummer. I really do not understand the idea of not putting the cockpit on the centerline of a ship...

WesBelden, if you see this, pass on my regards because I just want to say thank you to SOE for making smuggler even more useless. the change could have been handled FAR better, like someone else said, just give FD only to masters or something. One of these days, SOE is going to actually do something good for us smugglers, and I'll probably die of a heart attack from the surprise and still never get to enjoy it.

I've already mentioned that Smugglers aren't happy with the level of communication on this. I hope that when that daycomes that your heart grows in strength beforehand

Feign Death, but you get axed anyway. Sounds like that is now a very uselessskill to have. It was one of the few tools of a smuggler in the non PvP world that was usefull and now it is gone, oh well "life goes on". This change rates right up there with 95% of the spice crafting, something you can do, but no one has a use for it including you. LOL.
Next let's start working on slicing; that has a lot of room for creative development. Let's say that you have a 50-50 chance of destroying the weapon if you slice it or maybe we could have a 1 in 4 chance of reducing the effectiveness of the item. Those are things that will really help make being a smuggler fun. Maybe bad slicing is not such a good idea for the development group to think about. ROFL.
Of course I could just not be understanding why this was done and how the smugglers were ruining the game for other players. I did hear a rumor that the great "fix" was about to hit the street for smugglers. Be still my heart. I still like playing the role of an on the edge character so I guess I will just have to be more careful where I go and who/what I engage.

Communication? Wes come on when have they ever Listend to us, even when they are they are listening and making jerk off motions with their hand. We ahve given them PLENTY of ideas on how to change so many things in smuggler but they just dont care to listen. I will be waiting for the Smuggler Revamp im sure till after the Dancers get new Dances like "The Electric Slide" and "The Macceriana" and the ID's can give Holo Emotes to Mounts.

Thanks for the reply, Wes, it IS nice to see that you're active with us on this matter. However, let them know that it's not just the level oc communication we're unhappy with, it's the whole situation.

Is this in live already? Ihave a chef/smuggler and the feign death was all that kept him alive when he gets attacked at havestors or putiin stuff in a fac till some friends can come and save him......
I tried using it when attacked by spineflap soldiers and nothing was happening......

Feign Death (real world understanding)=The ability to fool your opponent into assuming you are dead, thus preventing them from attacking you further.
Feign Death (SOE Understanding)=The ability to make someone think you are dead, but they can still give you a kicking on the floor.
One word to describe how it used to be, to how it is now (LAME)
Why in gods name did this get changed WITHOUT being put to test first?
Someone in the dev team had to have had one too many lonely saturday nights and thought whilst programming "i'll slip that one in no one will notice"
Maybe if the dev's AND csr's took notice of us players this game would be 10 times better
