Not at all. After reading the description, all I could think of was "WTF, zombies now? How low can the universe sink?" |

Even if you want to give the basic premise a shot (BIG if), just how suspenseful are "zombies" going to be in a universe with killer androids, light sabers, sith and jedi, and ships that can destroy a planet form orbit?! A "zombie outbreak" would last 11 seconds. How would a "zombie" manage to chew through storm trooper body armor?! LOL |

Zombies+Star Wars = fail.
I knew Smed was an idiot, but wasn't sure until they actually went live with this that he had, in fact, become brain dead.

Star Wars was going downhill back when Timothy Zahn decided to make reference to "chocolate milk" in _Heir to the Empire_ but this is scraping the bottom of the barrel. Smed may be capitalizing on this, but the idea is coming from a book to be published and that likely was authorized by GL.... Sad, but I'm sure the justification is that supernatural powers have always been a part of Star Wars, that whole communing with undead jedi ghosts and all... Re-subscribing to City of Heroes?

This is just sad. SWG has gone so far off canon you got to wonder why they're still calling it Star Wars. I definitely can't wait for the day when people talk about SWG in the past tense. P.S. |

What the fuck is with zombies in Star Wars, I can't believe someone at Lucas Arts agreed to have this shit put in the game.

I'd laugh if it weren't so sad. The idiots at SOE have completely lost their minds. "Censorship is never over for those who have experienced it. It is a brand on the imagination that affects the individual who has suffered it, forever." - Noam Chomsky |

its better than the beggining of the NGE um has a long way to go. even though its zombies its alot better than the stuff they have been doling out for awhile. if they take what they did here and focused on it and listening to the community ideas for the GCW just a little SWG would become a little more bearable. like i said before i only play swg because its the only sw GCW timelined mmo lol if someone else were ot take a crack at it i would definately jump ship no questions.
but for the time being it is slightly bearable... lol |
