I adored Pre-CU because of what I assumed it would become. It was my first MMOG, and at the time the development team claimed to be serious about a Star Wars simulator. It had elements that I consider amazing - even today as a more jaded consum…

Originally posted by John.A.Zoid Yeh it's funny until you find out that Lucas Arts wanted them and the game ends up shipping with comic book characters and giant lightsabers. Art assets are the by far the biggest, most expensive componen…

Originally posted by suske at what point did game development turn into a NORAD project? It's ridiculous isn't it? I find myself wondering that a lot too. I think generally some studios are afraid they'll mishandle the community relations …

Originally posted by meleemadness Probably not the best place to come and ask this but....were the old Pikeman, fencer and swordsman professions examples of the Echani fighting style? TKA was obviously the tera kasi style and jedi were the force …

Originally posted by salvaje Originally posted by AfroPuff I'm positively stunned to hear the dev team say that heroic space encounters would likely require specific chassis or specific loadouts, and that they view this as a problem? I mean,…

Yes, collision detection was a stated requisite, and clearly needed from direct observation. Naturally, they launched without it. Remember when the NGE was launched and the mobs used to stack up right on top of each other? Useless.

Originally posted by Thunderous I wasn't aware that anyone still used UDP... If that's true what could possibly be the motivation in it? I recall hearing a song and dance from one of the designers that UDP was chosen to keep lag times down es…

I miss my 1st house too: over in that little area just NW of Anchorhead. I just wish they could have given us more Sci-Fi appropriate art assets though. We were all building homes like foomerang's, because it's all we had to work with.

Originally posted by Fishermage Originally posted by Esquire1980 CHANGE, after CHANGE, after CHANGE. It doesn't really matter what the CHANGE is. They can't leave nothing alone. EVEN if they code it. CU, NGE, GCW Re-vamp, C6CD, Medic nerf,…

It broke me in two to see those guys, wearing nothing besides winged hawtpants, force running figure eights in front of Theed star port. I would think: "he grinded his ass off just to do this?" Why desecrate the Jedi profession in that way? …

I'd find it hard to quibble with that critique of the Star Wars Insider piece, even if I wanted to; but I don't - I think it's right on target. And if your main thrust is really a sort of home grown Public Service Announcement, or consumer advocate…

Originally posted by ArcAngel3 God himself couldn't save SWG at this point. Too much bad blood. Besides, SOE has already made it plain as day that they don't want anyone with half a brain as a customer (remember the "too much reading" comme…

Putting Thunderhart into community management was a nice gesture, but it was a mistake. He was in no way qualified for such a delicate, customer-facing job. In fairness though, I think few publishers give community management the importance it des…

Originally posted by Linna The 'people are spread out more' excuse is old, and doesn't hold up by the way. People were spread out before too, and still player cities, starports and favorite hunting spots (there were more of those back then, e…

To state the obvious, those were certainly among the more well laid out posts that have graced the official boards; yet most BMF's core observations in those posts aren't remotely new. Most of these ideas have been around and stated repeatedly for…

I logged in recently off a vet trial and took my Nova for a spin. For some reason the engine sound was gone, and the engine tailpipe artwork was totally missing. Whatever. /logout

There is no such thing as an interesting XFire stat. Not intended as a flame on the OP BTW.

Originally posted by feldrin I don't know that they will sunset SWG soon. In fact I could see SWG running for a long time. If they are able to run the game with between 20k and 50k players now why would that change if the is another star wars mmo…
