Right now, they are working on their solution to low populations...  Badgerbanger's IMPROVED GROUPING TOOLS!

Of course, it didn't take long for someone to point out the obvious.  And get the predictable answer:

Wrong thread.  This thread is for discussion of the grouping system.

I encourage everyone who doubts the word of those who reject the NGE to try it for themselves. http://tryswg.com

Experience for yourself a combat system that doesn't work, a broken UI...

Account was stolen!

Looks to me like the developer  was stating the obvious.

Nice try though

Account has been stolen, why would someone want to steal my account?

Hah!

This is not the Star Wars game your looking for....move along.....move along...

Just another example of why I will never touch another SOE game no matter what it is. Their everlasting wonderfull customer service.

They are 100% clueless.

If they want people to play their game then they should provide a game that isn't one of the WORST in the gaming industry.

People who pay to play this debacle should be studied in a laboratory.

My idea includes forced sterilization.

  Ahhhhh...the pacifists genocide-style gene-pool cleansing. 

 

  I've got the best solution SOE can hope for.  Free transfers.  I know that some people may lose some stuff...but it will be by their own choice.  I suspect many would take the chance.  Forcing players to actually pay money to correct a problem that SOE caused is abhorrent.  Of course, that IS company standard for them.

  WoW has opened free transfers MANY times to correct dead realm issues.  I mean MANY MANY MANY times.  You do NOT charge the players because their realm happened to die out.  You reward them for being loyal to your product by helping them get into a realm that has more players and a better environment.

I can only think that grouping chat would work on larger servers like Bria, Bloodfin, Chilastra, StarSider and Chimeara but I don't think it'll do too well on smaller servers. This isn't even the right solution for the population problem, DevH (and the rest of the devs) seem to continuously ignore the population issue.


I also heard that they might be adding an ingame voice chat sometimes, are they even done working out the existing bugs first?

Voice chat is going to hit the launchpad so it can be used for all games, unlikely the SWG dev team had to do anything other than make sure it works (lol).

I wouldn't be surprised if the dev team are only given the subscriber numbers that are given to LA, so it'll include station pass holders and any active accounts, even ones that never log into the game. So as far as they're concerned everything's just fine.

Can't counter an argument with a valid discussion point? Fishermage(aka Fisherprice) recommends you cut and paste: ad hominem

SWG's idea of repaying player loyalty is to give you a plaque for your house after you've been screwed over by their changes.

CH, Jedi, Commando, Smuggler, BH, Scout, Doctor, Chef, BE...yeah, lots of SWG time invested.
