I happen to agree with Shrendyk...it will never happen.

Each time the seem to give us nothing but lip service. Hell they even blatently lied about working on it for Publish 9...they obviously never started.

I do believe I'm done with SWG...and I started way back 3 months before live. I've done my time being patient with them and supporting them with my money.

Well, actually they did start...

A month or so ago, we were told that our revamp was postponed indefinatly until after the expansion is released.

Blowing the Publish 11 goal away. The way it was brought to our attention (A mistake in how they posted a state of the game letter) led to a very large outcry and most likely to the presence of GreenMarine now.

I'd like to get a straight answer on this. According to what ThunderHeart apparently told us and what Caylin is echoing, they assigned a designer/developer to the Smuggler revamp (GreenMarine). Yet a later quote from ThunderHeart said that GM was working on us in his own time and that he was officially commited to JTL. Which is it?

Mind you, if GM is working on us voluntarily, in his own time, then that means one developer actually gives a darn. And while I don't think they're out to intentionally bone us, they can assign GM with enough work that he doesn't have time for us (re: Like now), so who knows when we'll see anything.

And now its been announced (devtracker) that "11" was bumped until after JTL so who the hell knows what is going on.

My money is on the first major publish post JTL Revamp.

Given the october release, my money is on a february 2005 smuggler revamp.

Caylin; "Well, actually they did start... "

I'm not so sure I believe that...at least not enough of a start to have really released anything in Publish 9. They've 'started over' so many times that I really wonder how far along they've ever really got. I mean just HOW many times do they need to come here and ask us for input. I can recall giving them input all the way back to just a few months after live. The input doesn't really change either...do they lose all their notes? Or lose any progress they made on each of their 'false starts'?

Sorry, I just don't happen to believe anything they say about smuggler revamps any longer. I'd soon go to Vegas and gamble away my life's savings than place another months 'bet' on getting a revamp within the next 12 months.

I'm still not sold on the October release. It's not close enough to Christmas.

I think October is doable- it allows them to get the broken system they release all shiny by the holiday shopping spree, and in keeping with last year, some "big" over-hyped addition to that portion to the game will occur (new ship or two in space, maybe something small and new in SWG itself).

That being said:

a) I have always clung to the idea that it is foolish not to include changes to Smuggler with the addition of JTL. I just see this profession as becoming about 50%changed in a world that suddenly includes starships. Unfortunately, that wont happen.

b) If I were a betting Zabrak, and I am, My money is on March at the absolute earliest. I forsee too many issues during the October-December stretch for JTL.

My worst-case senario is PAJ 1 (1st patch after JTL)= Combat reballance finishing touches, PAJ 2= emergency JTL fixes, PAJ 3= GCW 1 and minor profession alterations, PAJ 4 = GCW 2 and minor profession alterations, PAJ 5= 2 professions revamped, including a Smuggler change that we dont all agree with.

whooooaaaaa, nononononononononononooooooooooooooooo

we need a defined set of abreviations for our timelines, maybe PAJ, maybe not. otherwise this whole argument is about to get REAL confusing, and i cant follow confusing arguments without a ton of alcohol.

Just one ton? What am I going to do with the rest of these kegs clogging up my cargo holds?! I didnt fly all the way over here from Dantooine, loose half my hull to mynocks avoiding Imperial "Entanglements" for 3 hours in an asteroid field, and land on this sithforsaken rock, in the middle of the biggest sandstorm since the pilot of the Lucky Despot decided he needed a change of careers, only to have you off loadONE ton!

Please see my post, as it has been edited. /sigh

V E E L A "her royal hawtness"
I am Jack's Smirking Revenge. I am Jack's Ignored Profession.
Theed was a bustling commerce city...people hawked their wares, danced, laughed, dueled, and had a rollicking good time. Cantinas packed with Entertainers of every race, shape and size...along with scoundrels, Stormtroopers, and drunks. People grouped up and stuck together in the wilderness, and you ALWAYS took a Scout or a Ranger with you. We lived our own Star Wars saga. We created our own personas, our own histories, and it all blended into this wonderful, magical experience that I will always remember...

That magic is gone now, but I'd pay 50 bucks a month to have it back.

Editor's Note: The author of the above post has quit giving SOE her money. She suggests you do the same, because this game will never be what you want it to be.
