Well, according to the Jedi, "Smuggler end up as one of the most playable and dev-loved professions in the game"
and also "The number of devposts in profession forums are over 50% posted on the Smuggler boards. Every single publish since the CU have contained Smuggler fixes and there have been hotfixes for your issues too. No smuggler issue that surfaced have been broken for more than 1-2 weeks. You are the only combat profession who have received content post-cu (new loot). ... Smuggler is, together with Swordman, the most working profession in the game skill/codewise. While you do not have unique professions on your own, you still have full access to both pve/pvp with no broken abilities to hold you back. Both the Slicing system and the Spice system works as intended."

I hate it when Jedi have a smuggler alt, which they think makes them elibable to post anti-smuggler cries...

Yeah, but she's "starting to be really annoyed with the Smuggler's whining for content" she says. Heh.

That may be but WE CAN'T SMUGGLE hence the name of the proff, Smuggler.

Damn Broad.



I have waitied for 2 years for SOE to get it's act together and it hasn't.
They have forced me to destroy them, and I will.

Whatever this jedi is smoking, I want some. Smuggler has had a lot of "fixes" after the CU, but they've mostly (if not all) been nerfs to our skills because of the jedi/BH situation and them using our specials against eachother. So of course you'll see smuggler things on these hotfixes, thank the jediand BH's for that. And as far as the dev-loved comment....I think we all know that is not the case, in fact the devs are very quickly clearing our our ranks as fast as they can hit the "banned" button. They don't even want to discuss our profession anymore.

Lets see. Common sense says FRS but my heart wants the smuggler to come first. Now does SOE have hearts? If so have the smuggler patchcome first.

considering the facts we know:


Greenmarine made the system.


Greenmarine no longer works for SOE


Devs have a bad habit of "not knowing how to deal with other devs work" (Example Imperial cap. Dev making it no longer works for them, they were unable to "fix" it properly. Other systems that was built and "ready" in beta, vanished after the dev making em left SOE)



So, We're getting the FRS before the smuggler missions/issues. Because now they have to brainstorm and build a new system for us...Knowing how their brainstorm goes..We'll see a rather good developed system on paper, that covers alot, and looks rather exciting. Then they will be ordered to rush it out, thus it ends up as a half a55ed system, that resembles the planned system as much as a durni resembles a Krayt.

I am playing one of the rarest professions in Starwars Galaxies right now. We are 3 left on Corbantis. After Publish 19 I fought to play for a week and havnt played the game since. The nerfs where too much to handle. I have sacrificed my entire career to be able to help my friends through whatever they do, by offering heals and support. I am a Master Force Healer and after Pub 19 I cannot heal others anymore and I can barely keep myself alive.


I am asking for the entire game to be fixed and the balance restored, and you can read my list of known issues so far here: http://forums.station.sony.com/swg/board/message?board.id=csystems&message.id=65189


I am voting for Smuggler Missions, an Entertainer expansion, Commando Tanks, a Droid Engineer revamp and an Architect revamp before the FRS is re-enabled, although that does not change that I currently cant play my character along with my friends anymore, so I consider fixing broken things before adding content to be of highest priority right now. If they put dedicated SWG programmers to work instead of constantly switching teams and force them move between offices all the time, it shouldnt take them more than 2-3 publishes to adress the list under the link above, and then go back working fulltime on the revamps.


If you have anything to add on that list, I suggest you come over there and help me out. I am working for all professions to improve this entire game, and I hope it can help to increase awareness of eachothers issues and boost respect for other players. Note that I already added several issues for TKA, Commando and Pistoleer, which also effects smuggler templates. I have even acknowledged that Overwhelming Shot lacks use unless states are improved. And yes I have included the non-stacking toolkits issue. You may also read the situation with Master Force Healer there if you wish.


antares_Kauri have been following me through devtracker and flame me in almost every thread I post and I am starting to get increasingly tired of it, as he opress my rights of asking for improvements, bugfixes and writing about my dreams on this forum. He is not a good spokesperson for your profession if he keeps aggrevating non-smugglers for fun.

--- Cancelled 24th November 2006
Reason: The lack of multiplayer pve content and Star Wars feel.
For 3 years I have tried to find excuses to stay in game but only the expansions offered me what I subscribed for in the first place: A multiplayer Star Wars pve experience with friends around the globe. I found friends but with almost no addition of pve content they dropped out one by one. Now it's my turn.

1. You're not a dev, so devtracker wouldn't work. 2. I read the Jedi forums, and you have plenty of posts there all the time. Just because you write loads of stuff to disagree with doesn't mean anyone is following you, just that you write a lot of stuff that is biased, etc etc. Plus, I follow my own tracker to see updates. Not yours, mine.

MsNiL, your thread, unfortunately, is BS.



You were involved in a thread a couple of days ago in which you called Smugglers "whiny ingrates" for asking for the profession to havethe function it should have.



And now this thread appears, where you outline all the issues, but fail to mention our lack of function? Dear Lord, you expect to be taken seriously?


And on top of that you decide not to include the Smuggler moves affected by bugs and issues, like ConcussionShot and PanicShot [hint for you, they're dazes and Pistoleers have no dazes...]

QFE



"Jedi claims of being "broken" are like saying "But my TV isn't widescreen! It's broken! My TV can't show high-def pictures in 1080i, it can only do 720i! It's broken!" Meanwhile, crafters are saying "We'd really like to have a TV that's larger than 12" and gets more than 4 channels and doesn't constantly lose vertical control", and entertainers are saying "Can we get some color instead of this B&W piece of junk?" And smugglers? We're listening to radio programs of "The Shadow" and "The Abbot and Costello Comedy Hour" and hearing FDR's Fireside Chats. We don't even HAVE a damn TV, much less a broken one or a "broken" one by Jedi standards. I'd LOVE to be as "broken" as they are." - The Legendary Solo4114

I bet 100,000 Bria credits to the first responder from Bria that the new FRS comes out before smuggling. Please mind that I'm having technical difficulties logging on via my new campus network, so if I can never log on again, this bet will be void.
