Star Wars Galaxies

Right now at SWG is the 5th Anv  of the game and the supposed high point of the game year is supposed to be highly celebrated and looked at as the best celebration ever.... on Tuesday the 24th of June 2008 it was bugged the Yoda and Emperor Statues didn't distrubte the gifts and Vader or Leia didnt hand out the badges its was bugged and wasnt working so they pulled Empire Day down till yesterday... So fare complaint after complaint has been pouring on the main forums calling for heads to roll.. the gifts were in the topic threads as well. A pair of goggles identical to the 4th Anv Goggle only change its a different skin and thats it no socket nothing a rehash paste & copy crap item... next it a movie poster of the Empire Strikes Back, problem here is that last years Anv it was a New Hope Poster and it wasnt No Trade and it was sized right .. this year the poster frame doesnt match like ANH does and the poster is a No Trade Item for some idiotic reason ... and the special badge for the 5th was revealed as only 1 person per hour can get this badge (who was smoking crack at the time?)

So far the long list of complaints about griefers, afkers, lder, spammer, and noob (s) and alts only getting the badge.. 

Here Ill let you all decide here how SOE has once again screwed the player base.......

I think they got what they deserved.  Supporting a buggy, unfun mess of an MMO, developed by people who hold them in contempt, is a bad thing.

Enough already, let this game die.

If only.

I am really surprised that deadmeat allowed this to go off the way it did. Sad and shameful!

they don't get upset and leave over a huge change in the game but they are fuming over a stupid fricken badge?

If I'm not mistaken the random badge idea was Swede's and was one of the reason's why the event was delayed from going live by a day or two.  Deadmeat should just have said no we'll go with it as is, no random badge giveaway, and been done with it.  I know they say hindsight is 20/20 but anyone taking just 10 minutes to think about how players react to situations would have seen this coming.

they deserve it for doing buisness with such a crappy company

To be honest  are people stupid enough to sit at the keyboard for a once in the hour chance for.....let me me get excited a badge, no offence to badge collecters who may get  cheap frills from this sort of thing, but i have to say this is the worst form of mmo entertainment i have ever seen.

That is not content, but  utter lazy shambolic  excuses  for player content good luck to the afk generation, i hope it causes server wide failure but thats not likely as there are not enough players remianing to cause it.

This sort of crap only serves to  prove how bad things are, and they are  bad i hope its the final year for swg in  a kind way im sick of cringing, the game should  wrap up now and die the honourable death.

Personaly I went to the area, got my painting, bought for 1credit each the buff food/drink and left, I could care less about standing around to get a badge. That said there is a segment of the population that really wants to collect each and ever badge in the game, so that what they do log in just before each hour to try and get that badge.
