in SWG Veteran Refuge

Are you a veteran that:

A. Doesn't play because it sickens them to see such a mockey of the once proud SWG

B. Still plays because they were in a guild/ are obsessed with SW but hate SWG now

C. Return from time-to-time for as long as they can stomach it, because they want changes/ are waiting to see if anyone in their guild still exists...

D. Can put up with SWG and still play but greatly miss SWG classic.

E. (This can apply to any of the above, kinda a sub-option) are now obsessed with SWGemu/ similar things and would do anything to quicken the process. (If this doesnt apply, what is your opinion of SWGEMU's?)

I'm mostly A, with a little C (the guild thing), and E

    How about because SOE turned SWG into a game that they KNEW we wouldnt like. Then told us to leave if we didnt like it...literally.  I wont go back because the game blows now..literally.

    A, with the additional stipulation that the treatment I and many others have received from $OE itself (such as the hush-hush surprise 1 week before NGE, the ToOW fiasco, the chronic lies about the Smuggler revamp, to name just a few) have resulted in a bitter, angst-ridden individual who will never again give $OE a chance until they have undergone a dramatic shift in their corporate culture that must begin with the dismissal of Smedley.  To paraphrase Scotty, fool me once, shame on you - fool me dozens if not hundreds of times, shame on me until I leave your steaming pile of a game.  Keep on fooling the rest if you can $OE, I'm outta this game.

    G) played in Beta and like so many others warned the Devs about releasing the game in the state it was in. Hundreds of us were screaming for a level based system instead of the stupid skill tree system they released with. IF SWG had launched as NGE it would have been a smash hit. Deciding to betray the player base that decided to play the piece of crap they launched with and switching to a level system 2 years later not only alianated the current player base but it was also too late to draw in the hundreds of thousands if not millions of players that would have played NGE style if it had been the original game. SWG may even be good now -  so what? Nobody wants to start over in a game that's 4 years old.

    I am C, but also waiting for the EMU. I am back now to try out the Beastmaster stuff when chapter 6 goes to TC. If it is a fun mini game I may stick around until the EMU has proper Creature Handling.

    A level system would not have made things better.  Fleshing out all the professions, having space combat part of the main game, having all the major parts of the game finished "Combat, Vehicles, Player Cities," all before release would have made things a hell of a lot better





    MOST PEOPLE, liked SWG's vision, they just did not like the fact it was released RAW.



    And I am an (a), SWG was turned into an abomination.

    But.....noone likes levels??  Its like Borats neighbor in the Borat movie.

     

    Thats for games without ambitions..like WoW.....you can only level up your character and no more

    The skill tree made it without a endgame And you had freedom, and if you are over 15...you dont want to have anything with the levels to do....you can make up your own mind
