How to bandage SWG

I know a lot of people make topics about how to bring SWG back to life and there are great big long explanations that give a lot of details as to what needs to be done.
The simple truth is that SOE will never roll the servers back to Pre-CU, they wont even consider rolling it back to the CU (which is almost as bad).
The one factor about SWG that made it SWG and not WoW or any other MMO was the professions and skill trees. If SOE would leave the game as it is right now and just bring back the skill trees they would see a huge return of their old player base.
The whole Expertise thing that they are pushing sucks because its only a suplement to the one class you get to have. The game needs its soul back and that soul was skill trees.
If we could get back to that, then the game could be tweaked from there and players would once again have the choice of just doing their own thing or being part of the GCW which to be honest has been greatly enhanced since the legacy quests came out.
Well thats all I have to say about that.

There is only us, there is only this.
Forget regret, or life is yours to miss.
No other road, no other way.
No day but today.

just wipe the servers. unplug the power, sadly will probly happen soon.
only bandage i can think of, sorry its the kindest thing to do.
What is now wrong with the game is the core. It can't be fixed without another complete overhaul. That isn't going to happen because of how bad that last one failed.
I know very few people that play SWG now that was around PRE-CU,basicaly its full of people who never even knew what that PRE-CU was like.Now people will always subscribe to these games no matter how shocking they are to play,add 32 proffesions to the NGE and you still have a steaming pile of poop.The combat system is so basic i had to laugh the first time i tried it out ,i really thought it was a joke and it would NEVER go live..but once again SOE showed thier true colours and never listened to is player base,for the 100th time.So after lying,replacing a good combat system with a crap one,and striping the vets of everything they collected in game and making it crap...i doubt very many will come running back for 32 proffesions
I agree...........
I can live with all of the other changes to the game but removing the ability to mix and match skills and build your own profession was the only thing that set this game apart from the rest. If they reinstated that system it would definitely be worth another shot.
Critical thinking is a desire to seek, patience to doubt, fondness to meditate, slowness to assert, readiness to consider, carefulness to dispose and set in order; and hatred for every kind of imposture.
To be honest with the revamps and basically screwing their players so many times they're well the point of no return of bringing the majority of vets back or any real number of new players to try it.
The best bet is to hope for a new SW MMO with Pre-CU elements or completely new non SW game that resembles Pre-CU, SWG is done, stick a fork in it.
