Better yet, can you even tell us it's being worked on like you say the FRS is being worked on.



"Jedi claims of being "broken" are like saying "But my TV isn't widescreen! It's broken! My TV can't show high-def pictures in 1080i, it can only do 720i! It's broken!" Meanwhile, crafters are saying "We'd really like to have a TV that's larger than 12" and gets more than 4 channels and doesn't constantly lose vertical control", and entertainers are saying "Can we get some color instead of this B&W piece of junk?" And smugglers? We're listening to radio programs of "The Shadow" and "The Abbot and Costello Comedy Hour" and hearing FDR's Fireside Chats. We don't even HAVE a damn TV, much less a broken one or a "broken" one by Jedi standards. I'd LOVE to be as "broken" as they are." - The Legendary Solo4114

SWG Vault: Can you tell us when EXACTLY we will see the full Smuggler Revamp? And if you can't tell us, can you please tell us why?


Julio Torres: We are aware and sensitive to the fact that Smugglers need content to enjoy. We are currently working on this, and players should be able to enjoy the new content in November.

Could someone please let us know what the quoted "content" entails specifically? Is this a few added missions for smugglers or does this mean new functionality added to the Smuggler profession? What is coming in November for Smugglers?






Sorry, I can't and won't give details until the changes are a week out of hitting Test Center. As for the interview it is correctly quoted.

and it's worded to give him lots of wiggle room. Is it correct in that it's smuggler specific content unrelated to your lava planet expantion or that it's Mustifar content that smugglers can 'enjoy'.

I've brought this up in the correspondent forum and received a response that was not an answer.

Thanks for trying, even if you just got the usual nothing.

They didn't respond with "I agree" did they?

No, they said "soon"


And in response to your original question Makris of "what is coming for Smugglers in November?"

The answer is nothing. The same expansion that everyone else is getting with perhaps a single smuggler only mission or some other crap, because they at SOE have probably figured that everytime they give us some BS about a smuggler revamp the griping stops and we spend 6 months speculating and waiting until they finally come out with the most current excuse for why it won't happen. We are like Pavlov's dogs, we salivate at the mention of a revamp every time, only to be left cold again.

i.e. I don't think we have to worry about semantics, but rather about development staying on track and on time (neither of which are ever 100%).





I think we do, since the developers/CR people have done some very silly semantics hairsplitting to "prove us wrong" on multiple occasions...
