and it isn't good.
Top 20 Gaming Lows of 2004
11) Smugglers Used and Abused in Star Wars Galaxies
Back in the tail end of 2003, folks at Sony Online Entertainment
promised big changes for Star Wars Galaxies for 2004, among them being
the Great Civil War (GCW), combat revamp, and smugglers. The developers
promised the changes would take place before the release of expansion
Jump to Lightspeed, restoring peace in the Galaxy. None of them
happened, instead further bashing the Smuggler profession further into
the ground. Ignoring the hundreds of carefully crafted posts and
suggestions, SOE implemented an Imperial scanning feature that leaves
Smugglers susceptible to getting punished for carrying illegal "sliced"
items--while giving Imperial Officer players a pat on the back for doing
the same.
With longtime players deserting and turning servers into giant
wastelands of empty vendors, SOE again released a statement at the end
of 2004 promising Smuggler, GCW, and combat revamps--few are holding
their breath. And Vader chills in a retreat while Jedis run wild in
supposedly Imperial-controlled cities. Han and Chewy prefer cantinas.
