Well I felt we Vets need something to cheer ourselves up this Christmass, so short of doing anything that might have me in jail over the Christmass season I thought I'd dig out "That" clip again. So here is something for all Vets to sit back after a good meal, sip a brandy and have a chuckle once more, click.

Do you have any SWG vids or pics that when feeling down you like to watch again in order to bring a smile to your face? If so post them so that we can all enjoy a merry Christmass together!

BTW: We all know who's getting a lump of coal in his stocking for the third year running, don't we ;)

I hate that Julio Torres guy cause you go upto him hating the new changes and wanting to ask for pre cu back and planning to murder him. Then the next thing you know you're walking away from a convo with him agreeing that the NGE is the best thing ever and you'll buy 500 more copies and it's like...... WAIT A MIN!

Turn round and he's gone.

Funny video, must feel silly. Although Julio Torres is an incessantly annoying man.

That guy was the "target audience" for the NGE, and even he had lost his rag by 2006! I always saw Julio Torres as something like the 13th warrior. He must of shagged George Lucas' niece or something and got banished as an emmisary to the most far away hell hole Lucas could think of. Sent to SOE on a mission that couldn't be won, Lucas was intent on crushing his soul as punishment then after a couple of years he was sent back to LA. Smed often used Torres as his mouth piece thinking it better that he have an LA pr man take the heat for his inflammitory statements than him or SOE. Of course it didn't work.

I remember shortly after the NGE JT posted on the forums "We are not going to rollback so if you don't like it you should just leave and play something you do like!". Shortly after that subs must have taken a second nose dive as he apologized for his post two weeks later.

So the drunk guy in the video asks for devs to add xp to the quests already in the game and to "focus on the high end content".

 

Humm player asks devs and devs put both of those in game. Sounds like Julio is the man!

I remember this video from the early days of the NGE.

Good laugh, thanks for putting it up again.

Not really, when you look at the "end result" of the NGE, which Torres was a major factor of.

Pre-NGE population:  200k-300k, depending on who you ask.

NGE era population: 20k, and that's being very generous.

I'm not even bringing up the total disembowelment of the game system in detail.

Torres isn't really the man whatsoever, especially since he has been a driving force in driving SWG face first into the pavement from a 5 story building.

"I have only two out of my company and 20 out of some other company. We need support, but it is almost suicide to try to get it here as we are swept by machine gun fire and a constant barrage is on us. I have no one on my left and only a few on my right. I will hold." (First Lieutenant Clifton B. Cates, US Marine Corps, Soissons, 19 July 1918)

You don't need figures when the reality speaks for itself.

People have been asking for mergers for over a year now and they are now ready to allow free transfers from half the servers.

And the population issue (or lack thereof) has been witnessed and reported countless times.

At this point, I'd be curious to see if anyone thinks that NGE has the same total population as it did a year ago. It is in its twilight and even the mmo chart has indicated over a period of years that the line is a downward slope.

No typical holiday spurt is going to change that.

Here's an old interview to chuckle over, click . It's three years old and he was crazy horny for microtransaction back then. Though I have no idea what happened to those games he said would be released in a year, anyone?

So I started to walk into the water. I won't lie to you boys...I was terrified. But I pressed on, and as I made my way past the breakers, a strange calm came over me. I don't know if it was divine intervention or the kinship of all living things, but I tell you, Jerry, at that moment ... I was a marine biologist.

Saying the NGE has 20K subs at this point is being overly generous to the level of insanity.

Less than HALF that. AT MOST.

Again -- provide SOMETHING to back up your claim.
