Thread: My report so far from Fan Fest

Shouldn't something like this be initiated WITH the Combat Balance? Otherwise we're likely to get these awesome new abilities, find out a month later we're suddenly weekly temploiter profession, and end up being nerfed. This knocks out a few birds doesn't it? Gives you less work for when our revamp DOES come up, plus gives many that lil' something to tide us over... Just a thought. Know you're busy GM (the price you pay for apparently being SOE's Best
) but if you get a chance could you bat that idea over to the CB team? Thanks

Space will tide you over, I promise you that. If you want to boycott space until after our revamp, go ahead.
Just to highlight your statement, "If you give SOE the money for the space expansion, they'll fix your problems." Not, "you've been screwed since the beginning and they're going to tie your fix to spending more money." Fanboi.
ROFL. I see a couple of Jedi coming in here talking about how they got the "raw" deal and whining "nerf" and I think it's just hilarious. What a bunch of power-gamers!
Remove Jedi from BH terminals? Nah! I want to know how I can add Jedi to the hitlist! The Jedi receive priority over the smuggler and yet they feel the need to come in here and cry? Priceless.
I say "Let them eat cake!" Let me assist the Bountyhunters any way I can in bringing in the SWG element that is detrimental to the game.
The Smuggler delay is really BS, but I must concede that GM sounds sincere.
Jedi - Take your bantha ball and go home!
But alas... Despite small tweaks and additions in the past publishes, the devs seem to imply that smuggler won't be touched until it requires a full revamp.
Oh well, I'm glad word is being tossed between players and devs. Better to hear flashy stories as opposed to dull delays.

I have no idea how that statement could be misconstrued as such, but if that is your opinion, you are entitiled to it. I'm going to buy space because I LOVE twitch-based combat, not because I feel like it might help along smuggler. If you saw and heard what I did at E3 and Fan Fest, you would understand. But you didn't. I hope this post has made you feel better in some way about the state of our profession. All I meant was that JtL is going to be something that will take your mind off of revamp in some small way, because it's going to be FUN.
Jeez, I have decided, that, per this post alone, I'm going to stop posting on the Smuggler threads. I try so hard to go to Fan Fest and get people to listen, and when I post my opinion and information that I have recieved, I get flamed. That's pure bull**** and I won't put up with that. Anything else I find out about the Smuggler Revamp I will be keeping to myself. After E3, I posted here about what I heard and what I asked. After FF, same thing. I think there's only asmall percentage of people that really even care, right now it sure feels like everyone else went smuggler to complain to SOE about how broken this game is and how they are liars, etc. I'm not going to be a part of that. Flame me all you want, call me an eternal optimist, but I truly believe that the Revamp is going to be great, and that the Smuggler community as a whole should stop b!tching about how we've been strung along, devs suck, blah blah blah, and look into the future. GM sent me a message earlier saying he's hoping to have a Formal Document to post within 2 weeks. Have a little faith, I know most of it has been washed away by empty promises, but the fact that the dev in charge of our revamp is here posting gives me a little ray of hope.
Not like my opinion matters, I'll not be posting here again. Thank you for making me see the light, as it were.

/hug
dont let one or 2 flames stop your reporting. I got your point and I agree with you Jump should be a lot of fun and no smuggler should buy it because it will help smugglers they should buy it cause it is the space expantion. BTW thank you from the rest of us on the info you mentioned......
based on what ive read one of 2 things will happen
1. combat re-vamp will be balenced with all combat including smuggler but nothing will change beyond that untill the re-vamp (i.e. combat for us still attached to pistol)
or
2. they will not only re-balance combat but make our moves universal to any weapon before we get our re-vamp.
Im think number 1 first but who knows.
Greenmarine...
I think you're an excellent dev. But...
You told us this LAST year. You made a post, got allll caught up with vehicles, and we never heard from you again until now. Why is this different? Why should we believe you guys one this one?
