maybe we get surprise attacks or something like that....i'm actually quite curious.




Not really. They talking about GCW system changes, not the CURB in this one. If you notice, all the GCW stuff is independent of actual combat changes.


Also, to whomever stated that they're going to do a bigger GCW revamp down the road... Well they better plan on adding some more factions with that one because they've been sitting on that egg waaaaay too long. I could understand content publishes and battlefield fixes, but to continue to ignore a group of players (neutral or civilians, whatever you want to call them) would reverse whatever community progress they've made.

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

Wait and see guys. Things are getting better - its just going to take time.


I'd much rather have them seriously take the time and do it right than discuss the smuggler profession for an hour, slam out some code, and have us stuck with a crappy revamp forever. Lets be patient, things seem to be on an uptick here.


Besides, Wes is not likely to let them forget any of our issues.

Hmph, good thing I fell asleep before it even started. And I was in the channel and everything.

Anyway, so much for the Smuggler Revamp. Uhm, early design stages of figuring out what to do? Half of the people on these forums have gone past that stage more than a year ago...

You're right, I missed LaughingWolf. My bad!




And here I was, just assuming I was not important enough yet in the Smuggler World to be listed.

lol I'm just pulling your leg, no big deal.

Oh and to answer the question, I'm a gal.

I completely agree.

Yimaz...we smuggle On Leave. Our own inherrent abillity to roll past scanners provides us with the abillity to smuggle (as I said it would way back when in the Crackdown days). The question is how much are they going to step up Contraband? And will the loophools they've left in of Rank and Droids affect that as we said it would?
