Thread: Which will come first? Smuggling or the New FRS?

They have said (to one of us at fan fest) that the Smuggling missions are complete with the exception of dialogue.


They have said that they have LA approving the new FRS system (I think that was done long ago actually).


They have said that they will not release any new content for a while in order to focus on ingame bugs.



SO this is the question.


What do you think will happen first?

The FRS or the Smuggling missions?


And on a side note: I personally think they are heavily debating introducing Bounties on the player base and the consequences thereof- This might be the reason for the delay in our missions.


If it IS I say, introduce the bounties already! God knows that thousands of players would return for that reason alone-

You wanna save this game? Do the bounties!

Let's see ... Jedi vs. Smuggler

Of course the FRS will come first, when have we gotten anything first? Or second, third...

I'd be willing to bet everything I own - my flat, my Audi, my decks, mt record collection, all my clothes, my pc and entire porn art collection, my furniture, my kitchenware, even the Wok of Omens, all that junk that sits in the various cupboards - everything - that the FRS will appear months, if not years before smuggling.

FRS = Force Ranking System

The next big publish the alpha class population will get soon. (and not "soon" as in "soon there's gonna be a smuggler revamp" but like in " one of the next patches will be kissing alpha class butt again").

Do you even have to ask which is going to come out first or are you genuinely trying to stir the pot up some more here?

Ah, got it. I would even be really happy to see some Ranger revamping..Commando revamping...Pistoleer revamping....I'll take anything they give us except more BH and Jedi stuff...I'm getting all upset now. I just can't figure out why they keep getting all the attention, sure there's a lot of em out there, but all of the other professions combined makes up a bigger player base, at least I think so.


In answering your question, yeah FRS no doubt.


And I think I'm listening to the official Smuggler Forum song right now: B.B. King "Everyday I have the Blues". Oh, those smugglin blues!

I can't say I'm genuinely trying to stir the pot.


I'm more trying to illustrate that we DO know the score- and when they push out that FRS before the Smuggling missions after saying they won't give us anything until all ingame bugs are fixed- we are going to be pissed and rightfully so.


I'm doing the villiage right now and the whole thing is so thought out and well planned that it makes me angry to know that we can't even get some missions that are already near completion ESPECIALLY if a new FRS is going to come first...AGAIN!

This is a great question. And I am thinking about making it my rally point.


In a perfect world, Smuggling missions will go in first. We have been waiting over 2 years for it. And the FRS has been closed for only 2 months now.


In a real world, the FRS will be finished first. And I'm starting to get mad as hell about it.

Well, if you wanted to put some more reality into it, look at it from a business case.

More players currently are jedi than smugglers. It's fairly likely that there are more players currently aspiring to be jedi than smugglers. Since jedi has a much larger demo, its reasonable to assert that their missions/content/fixes would take priority over ours.

Its probably about the money, not about who's been waiting in the line the longest.

I don't have to like it, but that very well might be the reality of things. Of course, they could say that the upcoming announcement is the fabled 3rd faction and an underworld and that smuggler will be overhauled then and that's why they keep pushing us off...But I feel like living on planet earth today.
