I know most you will never go back but I got sick of hack and slash fantsy, I went back Full time after the Chpt 6 release to try out BeastMaster and I having fun I was able to get a few friends to come back and we are spanking the NGE kids!
They are lame, sorry they beg for items they cry after spanking them in pvp its just great to get hate tells again!
Also I'm making credits had over fist made 700 million since chapter 6, the kiddies have a lot credits and they spend them fast.
I working on lvl'ing a Bounty Hunter because these kids are so fun to kill.
Just FYI, comabt reminds me of CU period of the game but with less specials. Darkside is the way to go with a Jedi. Spys are the only problem if they are smart most are not.
Well we joined another IMP guild are city was dead, But we are bring traffic through this city and growing it.
Any ways as a Vet I would recomend you try the game again its a heck of lot better now and if your sick of hack and slash fantsy what can you loose nothing because they have the free trial.

You should know better than to post anything positive about SWG you're just asking to be flamed here..lol
That is great tho that they improved it (put back what they took out) and you're having fun again.
When they address crafting I'll come back and try again. Until then I have played that game and I don't enjoy it.
They have added consumables to all the crafters I made 700 million credits since chpt 6, Crafting seems fine to me!
I'm not kdding Crafters, can also rev-eng looted items the best you can make is a triple +35, Luck, Agility, Stamina they have made crafters viable again after the last two chapters.
Check it out!

Glad you're having fun. No, I won't go check it out. Those shills at $OE don't deserve a penny of my money and I won't reward them for their heinous actions. If you wish to, then do so, I have a different set of principles and won't tolerate being treated like that. I hope you continue to have a good time for as long as you stay in that game, but I still hope it shuts down tomorrow. And tomorrow I'll hope it shuts down the next day, etc., etc., ad nauseum. Nothing against you, a grudge from Hell against $OE.

You don't see a problem with making 700 million credits in less than a month? That might explain why you like the current game...
Its good that you have found a way to have fun and get away from the over saturated fantasy MMOs out.
Ill come back, when...
1) crafted Items are better then Loot drops
2) Entertainers are useful and do big street dances again.
3) When not just day 1 guy can start with a glow stick, and actually has to earn it.
4) When my guild returns
chances of me logging in ever again.... slim to none

Reverse Engineering Loot for players is a not crafting. They may as well make RE Terminals. There is absolutely no need for the crafter to RE and you basically are just a 1000 credit terminal for the player. I couldn't be more offended you consider that crafting.
Consumables is a fine addition to crafting. It in no way replaces real crafting.
Crafting is not fine. It is not enjoyable to play. It has now essentially become a glorified NPC. What was once a unique and complex end game is no more then a junk vendor.
Crafting is not as good as it was before but they are working on it, I made BER 44 harvestors sub comp. do matter and Weapon Smiths are still needed thier weapons are better at the 80 and below lvl's.
Talk about subcomponets thats what Beast Master is all about.
No its not the great game it was but it is better than Eq2 again.

Beastmaster is inferior to Creature Handler. Most of the fun of playing as CH was actually TAMING your pets, which by the way is "iconic" if you have ever watched that horrible movie that is called "Attack of the Clones".
Crafting is still a JOKE. But that is just the point, crafting is on longer the focus of this game. The NGE focuses on PVP combat (just look at the NPC difficulty now). SOE WANTS you to PVP, they want you to focus on combat. Crafting is a novelty and that is proven when you go to the vendors and see maybe 10 items in the weapons and armor inventories. The game supports loot drops as opposed to player-created items.
There is STILL no melee combat outside of Jedi and the watered-down "officer". A lot of us want to play TKM again. We want to be pikeman and see the cool animations that we had.
The NGE is better than it was a year ago, no doubt. However, it is still a FAR inferior product from a company that lied repeadedly to its loyal playerbase only to bait-and-switch us all hoping to make enough quick cash to carry them through the early months of the NGE when EVERYONE realized how much it sucked, and hit the cancel button.
I have played WoW and CoH/CoV since SOE ruined SWG, I have even played the NGE for a few months. WoW is better IMO and in the opinion of 8 million other people as well. The NGE steals ideas from WoW and puts a Star Wars skin on them. WoW has vastly more players, less bugs, and more content. PLUS, Blizzard never lied and STOLE from its playerbase. If they say they are doing something, it gets done.
I think you need to stop telling the vets the NGE is worth playing, it's still a year away from that honor.

No you didn't. Lol. I can tell just by the way your sentence is structured. Stop lying you troll. You never played pre-CU -.-

To tell you guys the truth. I'm pretty much giving up on SWG. I don't think its possible for them to ever bring it back now. They are too stuck up. We can just hope someone sets them stright by taking their subscribers from them.

Well, if you are enjoying yourself, good luck to you and I hope it keeps going the way you want. But, the fact that you made 700 million in just a few days should be danger sign - the existing sophisticated economy was designed to work with the original sophisticated game. The outrageous hyperflation, which SOE seems totally unable to control, is essentially making both production and marketing of items meaningless. I hope it doesn't impinge on your enjoyment of the game.
Yeah, I miss good ol' Bloodfin. I always look for a new excuse to go back to SWG, where my heart is...by heart I mean 15 dollars a month.
The economy is shot. They don't even have decay either. Buffs are a thing of the past. Inflation is outrageous and loot drops destroy the need for player-crafted items anyway.
This guy is obviously an NGE fanboi and did not play the original SWG. Bluntly, he's full of crap.
no your not having fun.
If he knew that we weren't going to come back then why the heck did he post here in the first place and not in Current where they welcome that sort of thing?....
Quoting people doesn't make you clever, in fact, it makes you all the more stupid for not bothering to read the quotes you post in the first place.
OP your weakness disgusts me, traitor!
"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience"

Sorry but I did play PreCU, I used to craft things while running to get where I was going and that baby girl is PRE-CU! I have Elder Jedi I know how powerful a Jedi was I had two deaths one more strike 3!
But what I miss most was my TK - Swordsman Template ! and my 90% composite Sliced Armor! And don't forget my Ackley Power Hammer!
Yes Pre-CU was much better but I'm tired of EQ2, and games of that like.
I'm also sorry to say that crafting is still a fun profession then main reason I like it is all the customers you meet trying to haggle down on prices. Or making those special orders. I still make the best Armor on My server 98% to cap 4 layer!
And I'm not trolling b_tch I'm sharing my views on how the game is today I could care less if you come back or not so stuff it you need it.
Ajax
I never played any sort of Jedi, but I was under the impression that the 3 strike feature only lasted a short while until SOE replaced it with experience loss? Also, the fact that your customers are trying to haggle your prices down makes a sense, considering you made 700 million credits in a month.
Im sure this thread really belongs in the nge fanclub posting area, if some kind mod could remove it into the CURRENT there would less trolling.
Having fun that depends on what you define as having fun, pre cu was fun, even the cu was fun still, but the nge in my opinion no thats not fun, its a weak attempt at trying to get back to the game as it was before but making blatently poor attempts in the process.
