What do we really know at this point? We know that The designers Lied to the Dev's and they in turn lied to us. So thier excuse button is broken now. What else do we know? The revamp is not what we thought it was or the revamp is in such an early stage of development that they have no good answers. I hope it's the latter. Here's what the Dev's / Designers need to do to earn back some trust. Tell the whole truth. No half truths. No omitions. The truth. They need to commit. No more when we get to it, we are real busy. We need a final answer. When and how manyrevamps will it take. How many publishes. Not counting bug fixes just to get the content in there. I know the last time they commited to something they were caught in a lie. Thats why they stay vague. But know they need to draw the line in the sand. Is it Tiggs fault. In truth only Tiggs can answer that. Did she or did she not now the Designers where lying. Come to think of it. Green Marine made those claims. So I guess Tiggs is in the clear.

I think the only way for them to regain some respect here would be to

  • Have Tiggs come here and answer Wes's questions again. But this time perfectly clear without trying not to say anything
  • Send the Dev who is assigned to the revamp come here, explain what he's going for and start a discussion about it.


This whole "community->correspondent->Tiggs->... and back" way of communication is slow, produces misunderstandings, does not help the Dev's develop and is not giving us players the feeling that what we say goes to some place that is not /dev/null.

I believe the situation is as such because most see this as undeniable proof of their worst fears - that a "Content" profession (akin to Bounty Hunter and Jedi) will be stripped clean in November and December, and reduced to that of the poor state of the Entertainment profession (and quite possibly Doctors).


Plus, please keep in mind that alot of these arguments have been going on since Beta 3 - and this appears to be the stage in which most smugglers (myself included) feel they ultimately have lost - both in the proposed revamp and the upcoming expansion.


So, essentially this is one last push in a hope against everything to save the profession as a whole - and make wearing a Master Smuggler tag mean something again.

Like the last two years - I'd much rather them prove their committment to this game rather then they just drone on about what they might do.

I agree that action of the devs would be preferred, but the "revamp" they thought about should never happen in the way the are going for so some discussion might help.

Of course this is based on them being honest in those threads and not full of ****...
