Well let me start off by saying that i felt i was a little to harsh in the first but now i know i wasent.

They have successfully ignored us in this new "major patch" allmost all proffessions have been updated except for us. Everyone i run in to in the game including the members of my guild ask me why im a swordsman and i say well the dev's are working on bringing us up to par with the rest of the proffesions so im going to stick to it.

I had good faith that they were working on us and what do we get nothin NOTHIN in this patch totally ignored!

Im really unhappy right now with the way they handle this game they pay no attention to us the coorespondents have dissapeared and apperntly the dev's live in there own world ju. Ill shut up cause i feel angry right now and i dont want to be to harsh.

If i seen a dev post on this board and tell us what the plan is i would be fine but its seems they just dont care. I dont understand why they dont care about making there customers happy "customer is allways right" what happened to that.

Im crossing my fingures that this game doesent go the way of the movie prequals!

Dev's please tell us why we were ignored in this patch PLEZ give us some better feedback i like this game and know that it has great possibilitys.

No offense, but you seem a little self-centered. Look at pikemen and fencers. We're not the only ones in the neglected melee class boat.

I think they are fixing the popular classes first and the classes thatare on the brink of extinction, and other less popular classes are left to wait and wait and then change classes

I don't understand. Aren't 95% of the changes that come in each patch preceded weeks in advance on the test server? I thought everyone knew what was in this patch. Why are there so many "I was hoping for xyz in this patch but the devs suck cuz they didn't do anything" threads popping up?

In the Test Notes there WERE minor fixes to Swordsman and Pikeman. It said we would get a reduction in our move cost, and now that is absent from the patch notes, but unarmed move cost reduction is there, as well as a range fix for vibro knuckles.

That's what is ticking me off. It seems as if they only focus on TKA as the only melee profession. When, in reality, it's an entire population of the SWG populace that is getting neglected.

Well really its the whole brawler proffesion in general not just swordsman. They only need to make a few tweaks to even out the proffesions. Ive been playing since two weeks after launch and im frustrated they havent done anything about it a they keep saying that they are. Would it kill the devs to take 5min out of their day and give and post in the proffesion forums and tell us what the deal is.

there must be some underlying, underlying(thats a hard one to spell because it wreaks of metaphor) underlining.. nm.. ... issues to why they can't add some distance and tanking ability to the "other 3 meleer" professions. Obviously creating new moves and swords involves new animations and that ain gonna happen anytime soon. But coded mods are easy to fix... one would think.


I really don't know what goes on in the development - designer world. They seem very calculated at times and quite whimsical at others.


You say they pay attention to the highest populated professions.. ok. But like Gamesanator said... just give us some hope.. a clue.. a nibble.. a /wink.. just some mention of whats going on!


Come here and say, " We can't do this because that would happen."


I could live with that.. I feel like a penny waiting for change.

ever since the day this came game came out they have been cursed... the servers totally couldnt take the heat from everyone so fast. i think that really laid out the future of the game... not very reliable. and we sit here now wondering why they arent fixing our class when they are having a hard enough time keeping the servers up (and the login server is down right now btw).


The devs shouldnt have rushed the launch so much b/c i like this game but i think it could be soooo much better! But you dont always get what you want, eh?

The HAM cost reduction for Sword Cores is still in the Update notes, It's just not listed under "Swordsman". Probably under Weaponsmith/Crafting or the like.

I'd really love some better animations, I saw a master tka do this move where his fists moved so fast he was almost surrounded by a sphere of red lines of motion. 2h hit3 is basically swing, swing, kick

Well they 'fixed' CH alright - in the sense of getting out those nasty-looking plyers.


Going to give it another day or two and see how much crap code they hack/back out, but was hovering over the Cancel Account button a bit ago.


I'm basically fed up with incompetence and refusal to just fix stuff that's broken.


There's a development manager or two that need to get FIRED badly.
