Push the revamp past as far as you want, just stop lying to us! Unlike the others however, I'm with SL till the end. Consider my subscription renewed for at least another two years.

Bah, this is just what I wanted to hear. I mean why not push back the stuff that will keep the players here, and just focus on what can bring them back. hehe
Sound corporate BS this all is. A whole lotta people will flood back once JTL launches. They'll make their money again, and then press the "I don't give a rat's arse" button again until everyone starts to quit again......then it'll be time for another expansion....maybe something that'll take you back in time to fight for the Republic or some crap like that.
I was holding out for this revamp. It was to be my deciding factor in staying in the game or not. Guess that's out the window.

Well as upset as most of us are over this as Irott says, this probably means a better thing for us. GreenMarine will be able to concentrate on the SL revamp since he wanted smuggler, SL and ranger done properly. Other thing this will mean we will hopefully get some good oommunication going with the devs about the revamp, it won't be secret and half assed.
Another thing to take into consideration is perhaps we can tweak the trees based around space as well, just like how smuggler will be done. So yes this does suck, it has been a very long wait, frankly i think we need this more then smugglers (at least they can make some cash right now) and they require a bigger revamp since it would tie into new contraband and everything.
Please though, if the devs do anything with jeid after publish 10 then they their execs at SOE needs to be lined up in front ofa firing squad and we all should issue a /steadyaim command and FIRE!!!

Irott, I will tell you what I told jest3r. We are glad you are fighting the good fight, if you need someone(s) to stand beside you all you would have to do is ask, and many of us would, and would consider it an honor. I will give SOE one more year of my life to return the game I beta'd. To be honest, I am not sure they even have a normal full staff....Look at games like FFXI and City of Heroes...Lineage II. All recent MMORPGs that are less buggy then SWG. How is this possible?! As for the programmer for SL, can we get Rogue_5? He was funny and liked to listen to veterans back in beta.

Well Darth Sushi asked how many times SLs will be cancelling their accounts and i will tell you that its happening one more time.
I dropped almost all of my SL ability except formup and retreat and i might/might not get rid of the rest. Meanwhile i went and bought JointOps and have been playing that way more than SWG lately. Probably in September i am going to cancel my account and i already preordered EQ2.
Now i know you guys are saying hey EQ2 is still an SOE game. Well yes it is but EQ was good with customer service from what i understand. Also EQ2 has a different dev team who might possibly not be as bad as SWG.
If EQ2 sucks i will never play another SOE game again and that is a promise.

Well better to have some answer then no answer, I will go crawl under my rock and wait for the Dev's then.
I still have faith that this is all goan turn out alright. Especaly if they bring in GreenMarine I have been keeping up withhis idea's in the Smugler forum and hes just a genius anyway you slice it!

I guess it must be hard to find good devs, but really if SOE is having a hard time finding "good" devs like Greenmarine maybe it's way past time to "revamp" the dev team with people who are good. If every profession that needs a revamp to be done right has to wait for Greenmarine (who from reading his posts has a vast knowlege of the entire game in detail) and the few other devs of his calibre we are in for a long wait for the game to be fun for a large amount of the population.

Exactly, they need to get in and see the problem from the inside.

Well, back in the days, Devs actually played the game. Like Q-3PO, he use to play the game quiet often. So i think once they get more devs, they should have them playing the game and see whats wrong.
