Dude, take that rod out of your ass and wise up. This expansion is firmly aimed at Jedi and if some weary old Smugglerswant to have moan about it in the safety of their profession forum, let them be


The last thing we appreciate round these parts is a po-faced preachy Devophile, okay?





I, for one, think that this expansion will be a good thing for the community. This is why:


1, How many times has the subject came up where people have mentioned that they would like a server for non-jedi? THIS IS AS CLOSE AS WE ARE GOING TO GET TO THAT! This way the glowstick waving, end-gamers will have a planetall of their own to go AFK grind their hearts away.


2. This will finally put the power in the general player base's hands to voice their dissatisfaction with the lack of attention all of the other professions are receiving. DON'T BUY IT! Send a statement that they can't miss! If enough people don't buy the expansion, the executives that make the decisions on where and when to allocate resources and budget will get the rude wake up call that they deserve!

Don't take this as a slap in the face (albeit, it really stinks that they did go back on their word so soon and must have known that this was in the pipe when they said they weren't going to do any revamps for any professions) - this is our opportunity to stand up and be heard in the one way that they can't ignore - their bottom line!



It is my intention to commandeer one of these ships, pick up a crew in Mos Eisley, raid, pillage, plunder, and otherwise pilfer my weasly black guts out......wait, I'm a smuggler - back to crafting spice! Ahh, crap! Can't even do that anymore...guess I'll just sell FP. Can someone please tell me when Han did that in ANY of the movies?

Don't feel sorry for me. I canceled my account two days ago and won't be back at this point. Good luck trying to fit the new Lava Crystal into your pistol. oh, and good luck with all those smuggler missions that Obi-wan will be handing out.

/waves hand slowly past head


You all want to go to the "other" forums to work on project x...



.... Hey, it was worth a shot! The dev's seem to do whatever the jedi want, so it was worth a try...

Okay, so what if it isn't jedi only content? It certainly is jedi themed... But also, we are forgeting that our Smuggler Revamp, that's never going to happen, and our Smuggling Missions are being "pushed back" because they aren't working on "new content" right now... Because sure, a jedi themed expansion isn't new at all! It isn't even content either! The dev's don't lie to us! They're our friends!

I just find it a slap in the face that they choose to create a new expansion, an entire planet, full of quests, instead of coding us a simple peace offering, of a mesely smuggling mission built from pre-existing systems... After all this time, after downsizing our hopes of something big, to something small (with no revamp at all), they have the nerve to release another expansion before smuggling missions because they don't want to work on "new content"...

I think we want you toremove the rod from your stiff ass and have a beer and chill the f*ck out



As is, all info about the Expansion, ie the FanFest statement and the screenies suggest this is Jedi themed, to understate it massively. Therefore, we're a little pissed.



When new info comes to light, showing how Smugglers will be needed to craftily get Jedi onto Mustafar, or get the LavaLamp glowbats through a mssive Imperial blockade, then we'll start celebrating in the streets.


Until that moment

QFE, Tango. I'm not buying it. It IS a nice opportunity to be able to say 'no' to the game in some way that matters to SOE, since I'm not quitting the game just yet... there's still a few things that I CAN do that I haven't done yet. I refuse to go anywhere that requires me to have a jedi in my party.


This expansion is just more of the same crap. Nothing at all to do with the setting that the game is supposed to be in, just jammed with whatever 'Star Wars' thing LA can think of that people might thinks is cool. HK-47? Come on... give me a goddamn break. I guess it's easier to just cut/copy/paste from Star Wars stuff that's already been done rather than design and build an intelligent world, especially when you have as a base assumption that as soon as it goes live, there will be 10,000 jedi running through the hills.


NonCant, go to the jedi forums. Imagine how you would feel if a Dev posted a statement saying that the jedi profession is done, there won't be any more missions or content for them because the profession is complete. No more special crystals, no more respecs, no new stuff... ever. And instead they're going to come out with dozens of new animals for the creature handlers. And by the way, five of those new creatures can solo a fully templated jedi. Would you like that? Try to imagine... I know it's hard, but TRY to imagine what that would be like and you might have an idea where we're coming from.


Jedi go home.
