A few links that show a track record of Blix (the new Lead Developer) making fast and positive changes to Star Wars Galaxies in the last couple months.
* Beast Master: the Return of Creature Handler starwarsgalaxies.station.sony.com/players/content.vm * Mutations of Science starwarsgalaxies.station.sony.com/players/content.vm * Camp Sites improved and expanded upon. starwarsgalaxies.station.sony.com/players/content.vm * Housing Purge starwarsgalaxies.station.sony.com/packup/ * Reverse Engineering starwarsgalaxies.station.sony.com/players/content.vm * Entertainers Are Important starwarsgalaxies.station.sony.com/players/content.vm Leading the way with Crafting Revamps and upcoming expansions, Blix seems to be taking an aggressive attitude toward making SWG worth playing again.

NGE still there???
IF YES Nope no savior just someone repackaging stuff they took out IF NO then maybe he is.
NGE still there?? As long as it is and $OE is in charge nothing will save it in my eyes.

SWG is unsavable by anyone, by any means, or by any method at this point.

At this point they cant remove the NGE.
That was only possible immediately after its launch. They can only slowly convert the systems back to the way they were which is what he seems to be aggressively pursuing. |

It doesn't matter what happens to this game anymore because people are reminiscing about a game that only ever existed in thier minds. The old SWG was bug ridden and annoying for the most part and the forums were full of people complaining about no development or fixes, the way most people recall this game now, you'd think it was the .....the .... (eneter witty something that is really, really good). Aside from that most people can't come back while soe are running it, they threw their dummies so far from the pram there's no way they'll ever find them again. ----- |

Indeed, although i would applaud improvement for the players still playing and trying to find a home (no love for ignorant nge lovers though, sorry i flame stupidity), i would say swg is dead; profession-based non-level complexity is dead, and swg along with it.\ TO SWGEmu!!!!!

Hello my fellow Gamers! 1st of all I would like to say as long as The NGE stays the game will never be saved. 1st off I tried the game out again recently and as of today I decided its not any better at all,yes they have made strides but its far far from being a decent mmo in my opinion. Second, I have a decent PC and great Video card and the games performance is really really bad, Low frames per second ,horrible lag in any place you find a crowd and I dont see how anyone could enjoy pvp or anything with game performance this bad. Lastly The game still has that horrible FPS format that just plain sucks,It feels clunky and uncomfortable to play. One last add yes they have a server purge coming and I agree with that plus all the new adds but even with all these things coming the game just feels horrible,Pre-Cu and CU versions of the game did not have much better performance but I do remember it running a heall of alot smoother than it does now. Had they not have jacked with the combat system I might still be playing, with that said I am enjoying my stay In WOW and funny thing they have a similar combat system to what CU tried to copy and they dont seem to be hurting for Subscriptions so the whole FPS thing was just plain stupid. Have fun guys and I hope you are enjoying what ever game your playin woot.

* Beast Master: the Return of Creature Handler Leading the way with Crafting Revamps and upcoming expansions, Blix seems to be taking an aggressive attitude toward making SWG worth playing again. By Vader's Mother, I have been away just prior to the CU and Revamps are still going on... Blix will have a hard time trying to get former SWG'ers interested again. Previous staffers and managers have deceived the user base, so users do not give a whole lot of credit for those in SOE or LAE with regards to SWG. The Star Wars fan base has been alienated and burnt. It is going to be a difficult road to restore confidence. And that is why... Conservatives' pessimism is conducive to their happiness in three ways. First, they are rarely surprised -- they are right more often than not about the course of events. Second, when they are wrong they are happy to be so. Third, because pessimistic conservatives put not their faith in princes -- government -- they accept that happiness is a function of fending for oneself. They believe that happiness is an activity -- it is inseparable from the pursuit of happiness. |

Well, there may be hope for this one yet. I think Blix is doing a good job in actually listening to what people want.

Everything that has been added to the game since Blixtev was made Lead Designer was conceived before Helios was moved to the DC Comics game. Blixtev has brought nothing to the table so far and has given no indication that he ever will. What has Blixtev proposed that wasn't in one of the RFC posts Helios made while he had one foot out the door already? What is Blixtev's vision of where the game is headed? Blixtev is just an empty suit who is willing to do whatever he is told (ie. 'put a toilet in the living room if his boss tells him to'). Helios was the second worst thing to ever happen to the game (the NGE was obviously the first), but he at least had a vision of where he wanted to take the game (which was to turn it into Planetside it would seem, hey, the subscription numbers are almost there). Is Blixtev the savior of Star Wars Galaxies? Not even close. |

SOE needs a huge slap in the face. its horrible to think they bleed games dry for a living (planetside, SWG and many many expansions to Everquest) it makes me sick to think that the rights to star wars online games rest in their greedy hands. a slap to the face, dropping of the game and selling of the rights could revive the (what should have been) greatest space MMO. but because its SOE they will keep this game running until it makes a large loss and even then i only see this happening in 3-4 years time.
congrats to SOE for maintaining a crappy, underpopulated and poorly made game. MMO wish list: -Changeable worlds |

I've yet to see anything that wasn't included in on of the RFC posts Helios made before he was promoted to the DC Comics game for his magnificent success of not improving either the game or its subscription numbers. |
