Squad Leader Archive
Thread: Your opinions on the devs reworking CHEF before they touch SL!
If I don't complain loudly, don't think that it is because I tacitly agree or anything. Chefs are already more powerful than Squad Leaders, but I'll take my grumblings to the correspondent forum on your behalf. Unfortunately, there isn't a whole lot that can be done other than complain at this point, but do know that we are on the table (I *think* we're next).
Bottom line: You have my blessing to be upset, and complaining is all we can really do...but complaining doesn't really help. I recommend that we focus the energy on compiling our suggestions for our revamp. I know that I still have work to do on my State of the Profession report, so everyone please try to keep your complaints at a mild outcry and focus your leadership skills on future developments...as very very very late in development they may be.
Unfortunatlly there are a lot of proffession that need fixing. It's just the DEVs were to busy trying to break Creture Handler that the didn't have time to fix the broken ones. If you really want something nice for the SL profession get GREEN MARINE on it.
See what he did for Chefs, and Rangers are waiting to get him back. Unfortunatelly, for Rangers he got pull to do the Player City Publish, before he could finish. Next he goes to smuglers.
I agree in that fixing Chef helps more people than fixing SL.
I would be much happier if SLs got a food that helped them out specifically. You know, something to hold us over untill the revamp. ETA on that is a couple months, I'm shure. 
FarstarI think it's sad that the onlyreason I keep squad leader is for the /sysgroup command. I keep MSL for *cough* respect *cough*.
I don't believe in war without leaders. War without leaders is called a riot.
I love being a squad leader because I love commanding people into battle. Even the sad state of abilities, I'm not sure if I would be a more effective combat leader by taking a template with high defenses.
Originally, I wanted to go for a Han Solo template: Master Smuggler/Master Squad Leader. I'm afraid that Han Solo would be ineffective in real battle according to this game. Without /sysgroup I'm as effective in battle as a droid engineer.
Ok, after reading these replies....now i totally understand why SL hasn't been fixed yet. Its like a state of helplessness in this profession...and your responses pretty much show that. Not to bash everyone here...but you do realize that the reason they keep nerfing CH is because people RAISE their voices to be heard. I am a MCH, and am so used to the nerfing in that profession....BTW if u didn't know the people in the CH profession made a petition to have the ability to call out pets without using a camp....and you know what! The devs listened and will actually change that....BECAUSE people's voices were raised.
For a bunch of SL's it seems like everyone has given up....and you all ready to "wait your turn", a bit uncharacteristic for SL's as far as I'm concerned. You should not only be firing up your soldiers in battle, but also trying to fire up the devs to fix this profession....FOR your soldiers as well!
Anyways, I now have noticed that most of the people who wanted to try to get this profession really fixed...have already given up this profession.....as i had done a few months ago. And now I don't need to see a state of the profession by Thilium to know what it is.
State of the Profession- We'll wait our turn.
