Do all discussions need to be positive? In my experience all discussions need at least 2 sides, not be positive.

Actually, Pub 27 has been pretty well recieved. Normally by now you have thread on the TC forums asking why it's been pushed when it's not ready, however it's been mostly the opposite for the past few days.

Look mate i am really glad that you love the nge, but when i see posts like this:
"Nice changes, really nice but........................hardly any of the REPORTED bugs had been fixed yesterday so unless there is some uber patch that didnt hit TC then there are a lot of bugs about to hit live."
especially on client crashes and lock ups, in addition to the past track record of pulishes from this company. i have to doubt your quote "well received" comment.
the current go to live build was on TC for a week, oh...wait my bad...the go to build was on internal servers per TH so you all on TC do not even know what you are getting.
As to why the posts are not on TC forums is simple they were all over the responses to those fact filled producer letters to the community.
Go have fun, enjoy the game, but man wake up. one producer says no no we are going to hold up the publish till it is ready, the other one says oh it is goign live tomorrow and th says it will be this week. after the other two posted.
this is not a quaility control team that is communicating well with each other let alone you the paying customer.
Originally posted by admriker444 Yes it does bother me that you still play. Why.... 1.) Its preventing me from getting my beloved pre-cu server or a rollback to pre-cu. If enough of you stick around, SOE wont ever go back. If enough leave (and I think we're very close) then SOE will admit their mistake and roll back the servers. 2.) It sets a very bad example for other mmorpg developers out there. It says what SOE has done is okay with the players (like you) and therefore we can do it also. We can now revamp major changes into a mmorpg and the players will just suck it up and take it. 3.) It says its okay to release a shoddy bug-filled product and use player subscriber money to later finish it. Why would SOE ever release completed expansions, working publishes, etc when they can just put in artificial bugs to gat players advancement and then fix it later with your $15 a month ? By you continuing to pay SOE, you are saying its okay for SOE to dump bugs into a game and fix them later. I dont care if your having fun. All that matters is your still paying them and that affects us all
The king of SWG trolls now bitching that someone is keeping him from getting his SWG game on. Admirker. You want your game back, write Torres. You should know dam well he isn't the reason you can't play pre-CU and there isn't a chance in hell they will roll servers back. They would rather let those servers collect dust them roll them back so enough with that already, it's a very beaten and dead friggin horse.
When you could play SWG pre-cu all you could do was sit in here and bitch about what was wrong with it. Now you have to have it back and are willing to accuse other gamers who heaven forbid enjoy their game and don't feel the need to bitch about it the entire way, nice one.
You don't care if he is having fun, it's all about what level YOU think games quality should be? So the gaming industry is some morale battleground that is going to save the world or something? If the gaming industry takes a complete nose dive in quality are we all going to be living on the streets, is that what you are trying to say? Gaming IS a frivalous recreation, I think the entire POINT of it is to have fun.
Apparently LEC and SOE feel your attitude is in the minority. Deal with it or take it up with them. I got an idea, why don't you pay your small fee to protest and go stand in front of their offices with a nice big ROLLBACK sign if it means so much too ya. You can be the worlds first Gaming Activist.
I agree with what Fadeus is saying about admirker's item number 1. If you don't care about someone elses game play you can't expect them to care about yours. Having said that I believe admirker makes solid points with items 2 & 3. People who are still playing this game are allowing SOE/LA to set a precendent that most likely will give other MMO companies justification for completely screwing their player base in the future. By either making drastic wholesale changes without notice or making player bases pay for product that isn't complete. This is dangerous for the gaming community in gerneral and the MMO genre specifically. People who continue to play SWG are giving liscense to these companies that would do whatever they want, players be damned.
NO realy, there is no way you can fight them now. We could not catch single sf jedi (well he is good, not noob) in 7 ppl group, cuz snares don't work on him, and force run is extremly fast now.

Ok, I read through all 17 pages of the issue thread and it seems to me the main bugs are Graphics errors, modeless chat not working and specials sometimes misfiring. While they're annoying, compared to the damage other publishes have done this is pretty good. No all day server downage and no emergency hotfixes. Also look at some of the bugs that could have gone live but were nipped on TC before hand. It may not be completely perfect, but it's a start

They stated they were holding it back because they wanted it to be perfect. Smed himself actually took the time to state that in the forums. Then they went and pushed it again anyways regardless of the unfixed issues on test. After what, 3 years about now you can still say it's pretty good compared to past publishes? It doesn't sound like they have learned their lesson to me yet.

Nothing is ever perfect. Considering some of the major changes they did to targeting and combat (with the Heavies), things could have gone so much worse (as has happened in the past with major changes like this).

Pardon my poor choice of words. But I think you should know what I meant with it. And after all, it was just me paraphrasing Smed's spin. I think it falls far short from what they promised. I don't sit and look at past performance and then look at current performance and decide there is an improvement when somsone tells me they are going to get something right. I actually expect them to get it right (within reason). Heaven forbid they actually be held to the goals they published for themselves.

Meh, you're entitled to your opinion At the end of the day, it is good to have people that push for more.
While you sumerized other folks conserns the fact that the specials after 3 months live are still inconsitant at best and the heals in every combat situation fail to go off for me is one of the reasons i am taken a break. If i play a game i want to see consitancy with working specials there not there yet with this offering. Obviously from others posting on the boards it is not there for them yet either. While there seems to be no rhyme or reason why they are so inconsitant that is very annoying that game play cannot be consitant. It is not a whine when folks are stating it is not working for them, there are just stating that there are times they do not go off. I can concure with that. The only time i have seen a heal go off in nge is after the battle was over and i was already incapped......

From what I can tell when I was still playing and experimenting with the healing it SEEMS that the heals for some wierd reason are still trying to be turn based and queue like they would in the CU or pre-cu. And then they get lost and dropped, resulting in inconsistent healing. That could be completely wrong but that is my observations on it.
They took a VERY turn based game and tryed to make it into a shooter by bolting on a whole new instruction set ontop of the old. There will be alot of inconsistency for a long time.

It seems to be more a lag issue then anything. If you're in a congested or high strain area, it seems more likely that it will fail.

Actually what happened is that this turned into a discussion, which is what forums are for... You posted the publish notes, someone commented on the fact that they are mainly a list of bug fixes, you and AA defended the merits of them and so forth. Just because it didn't have the effect you expected doesn't make it any less worthy. I've had posts too that have turned on me...
I think you thought that most people would see this as a sign that SWG is not dying, that the game is getting better, etc... Most people, including myself felt like this didn't deserve any merit because it's 95% bugfixes and just 5% content. And even then the content is questionable, because heavy weapons were already in the game, they were just "removed" and they are beign "added" again. And even then there's the question of how much will this publish break! Sorry, but it's a fact!
Not at all, I knew the discussion would never be overly positive when I posted it here (would be a little ignorant of me to expect anything different)

SOE knows what you like... You don't!
And don't forget... I am forcing you to read this!
Pardon my poor choice of words. But I think you should know what I meant with it. And after all, it was just me paraphrasing Smed's spin. I think it falls far short from what they promised. I don't sit and look at past performance and then look at current performance and decide there is an improvement when somsone tells me they are going to get something right. I actually expect them to get it right (within reason). Heaven forbid they actually be held to the goals they published for themselves.

Meh, you're entitled to your opinion
From what I can tell when I was still playing and experimenting with the healing it SEEMS that the heals for some wierd reason are still trying to be turn based and queue like they would in the CU or pre-cu. And then they get lost and dropped, resulting in inconsistent healing. That could be completely wrong but that is my observations on it.
They took a VERY turn based game and tryed to make it into a shooter by bolting on a whole new instruction set ontop of the old. There will be alot of inconsistency for a long time.

It seems to be more a lag issue then anything. If you're in a congested or high strain area, it seems more likely that it will fail.
