Being able to slice guns, amrour, terminals, bases, adn containers isn't enough. What about ships?Ever heard of Hana Solo and the Millenium Falcon? He custom made that thing to fit all his smuggling needs. He made it faster(decreased hyperspace waiting time), he made special hiding containments(extra storage, yipee!!) and there's all other kinda of stuff we could do. Special Smugler only space moves.
What about Vechiles or slice bases on good terms. Vechiles could run afster or increase vitality. BAses could be mean increased turret powe if any or longer time between disarming periods or shorter vunerabilty window. What about banks?!?!?! Smugglers are supposed to be the "theifs" of this game. HAted by both rebels and Imps, why cna't we still small amounts of money from banks and get a TEF thats IMp and Rebel affective meaning u get attacked by both Imp and Rebels within like..I don't know, 1 hour? 24 hours? U decide.
I don't know, these are a few ideas I came up with. You got some more go ahead and add them. But, the point is we need mroe thinsg to slice. And mreo control over what we slice. It shounld't be random.

Speak for yourself mate! I'd bloody steal from bank if I could! LOL!I AM a thief as well as a Smuggler, Scoundrel, Mercenary, Dealerand Slicer.
I mean, I kill people in cold blood and loot their pockets. I've no pretense as to the lack of my morality. It's a jungle out there, and in the fight for surival I intend to be one of the Fit.
But, I have my own code of honour whichI strictly adhere to. I don't kill nomads, [good] hermits or any mobs that did not choose a life of crime, or do not attack me first. I keep promises - be it good or bad - and I always finish a job I'm paid to do.
Nicking from banks? Probably one of the easiest moral dilemas around. Heh.

OK, so my spelling isn't the best. For typing that in 2 minutes it's pretty good....-_-....I never heard of Hana Solo either. Must be his sister. ON the other hand I was talking about Han Solo. Another subject, why doin't we have our own BE clothing? You know, it could increase weapson power or increase speed or decrease incumberance more then whenw e slcei weaopns without it.
Srry about the theif thing. Someone one liked it and it would be an easy way to earn money when in debt. I think ti would be kool, or you could mess up other ppl's bank accounts....but....that would get us/me some flames. ROTFL.

We did our best to getship-component slicing back when JTL was in development, and were shut down pretty harshly. Even after they used it as an advertising gimmick with reviewers, there was no attempt to add it then, nor is there much expectation that they'll ever add it later on. In order to avoid uber-space profs (ie Jedi), they separated ground/space profs pretty distinctly. They only real exception that I know of is that one smuggler-mission at Yavin station, which is pretty much like every other space-mission. Basically we were thrown a bone so we'd leave them alone for a few months.

Slicing being roughly the SW Equivalent of Hacking(not Haxing joo n00bs). I think most of us can agree it should apply to more Terminals(Bounty Hunter etc.)than it currently does. Vehicles and Starships would be Ideal. And Slicing a Droids CPU(Brain), though what usefull affect that could possibly have is beyond me,would certainly make more sense than slicing a Stone Knife or wood staff.
A more interactive Interface would be neice too, if I remember they mention one in the Concept threads for the Smuggler Revamp.

Slicing is going to be changed a great deal. Its going to be more like crafting.
I did agree with all of the posters points but one.... slicing banks because we are the thieves of the game. Say that on the smuggler forums and you will get flamed, we Smuggler's do not consider ourselves thieves, opportunits, or scoudrels yes, but thieves nope.
It looks like smuggling is just going to be warped into a combat prof to be used in higher end mob hunting though. Some of us are worried that we will lose our smuggler roots to FotM templates and what not. We smugglers are after all, the most loyal people to our professions than anyone else. Most of us become smugglers, to be... smugglers, not to be able to fight well, or pwn.
Lol, I just realized I AM on the Smuggler forum page.... lol.. I am freaking tired lol
Sorry guys
