After first logging in to TC5and playing around with the New System,i decided to created this Post for all Smugglers to leave there Feedback on there Likes and Dislikes.Lets keep this Topic clean, and offer the Devs Solid reasons for our feelings in this matter.On another note, just don,t post here and say it blows or sux without a valid reason for feeling the way you do,and try to offer some sort of way they can make what you hate better for all.To start this all off,i,ll post what i liked and disliked...
(1)I loved the new Laser Animations but i disliked the new Gun Sounds because they sounded like a Bird Chirping.
(2)I really Disliked the Flashy Animations because they cause Lag and it looks really "UnStar Warish" to whip out your Swoop from your data pad and have a big blast of light.Also when using Bacta Infusion which Heals all members close to you in your group,it causes a big flash that Lags so i see some people having a Major problem with this.
(3)Despite the Bugs,if they can clean it up before live and make the Sounds better and tone down on all the Flashy particle effects,i belive the CU will save SWG from the Boring, Overpowered, Composite Clone,Doc Monopoly situations we have all faced since the game took a turn for the worse back in the day.

/agree
new aniamtions i geuss are nice (never really noticed in the first place) the icons are cool looking, but i play on a dial up connection so i am thinking lag central from them and, the new effetcts, cool but unnecesary.

Bactaspray is lag city, I'm sure it will be addressed.
If anyone remembers the JTL beta, graphics and particle effects are subject to DRASTIC change.
Hell they even changed the particle effects for JTL after it had gone live.
/bug it, write about it in the issues thread, etc.
That being said I love the new blaster bolts, theyre so bright and crisp, looks a bit more like the movies. Hopefully the sounds are going to be enhanced/improved/diversified...
I Really like the new state effects, it might not be "starwarsy" to people, but I like to think of it more as an extension of the UI, like I'm using a HUD system, and it's giving me biofeedback... It's great to visually see that an enemy is dizzy, or rooted, etc. It's good to know who already has states and the grey box which seems to indiciate who is currently being targeted by the enemy you're fighting.
I'd like it if they found a way to make the group window (which still needs a WHOLE LOT of work) more compact, as since it is necessary to have it visible, to see who needs healing, who has states applied to them, etc, whereas in Live I always resize the window to one box
Having it be more compact would give me more room to see what's going on in the field.
