    So you just accept the 14 days free to keep your structures or do you have to pay at least one month?



    I know they need to get rid of some player owned structures, but it also seems like a fairly desperate attempt to get the subscription numbers back up at the same time.

    You must re-activate (a.k.a. pay).

    Also, I want to loot the houses as I demolish 'em. They can pack up what's left.

    Hey, I'll resubscribe if they revert the game back to how it was 6 months after release.  Oh, not going to do that? Well then you wont get my money again.

    Though I don't play SWG anymore, I have to say I find their approach to the urban sprawl problem rather amusing (in a good way), and creative. 

    Thankfully I've stored all my structures, though I hope the players are able to find tons of them to destroy.

    I will be very interested to see just what percentage of structures disappear.



    I do agree that allowing the players to demolish the structures is a great idea!



    In a way it's quite depressing, but fun.... (does that make sense? lol)

    Man this is the right direction. But just think at one time there where players in them houses its just said to think of the state of SWG they just nerfed this game to much and betrayed to many star war fans for this game to ever truly recover I hope BIOwares SWG@ is great and can bring back the fan Base

    The servers needed housing purges well before the NGE was even being thought of...

    True but not as much as it needs it now lol also I loved this game im not bashing it just think  a new spin like a SWG 2 KoToR would rock and maybe bring back some long lost friends.

    Wow, they are gonna get like 7 houses from me all full lol and some rare loots too!!!! Too bad you can't loot those houses. As far as percentages go after the purge, I'll bet it's close to 75 to 80 percent of housing will be gone!

    Why, so you can destroy it manually? :P  Most of it is pretty useless these days.

    Sadly this is the best content they've added in quite some time.

    And the funny part is they've found a way to turn their negligence into content.

     

    I just don't know if I should congratulate SOE or shake my head in disgust.

    Yep thats definetly what SWG needs. More empty, dead, deserted landscapes.

    No, it's what paying players need to be able to plant their houses/cities.

    They'll be replaced soon enough. Next step should be to remove those players accounts permanently, character/items/everything.
