SWG pre cu was a MMORPG but when the NGE hit, it changed into a MMO.

The RPG aspect went down the crapper.

Goldfarming is a very much welcomed business for me.

I don't have the luxury of sitting in front of the pc 24/7 like some of the kids, unemployed, welfare leechers etc. I gotta go to work and I also have a life when I get home. So for me, the possibility of aquiring gold/credits through a swipe of my VISA card, is just wonderful.

Cash is King. In real life and the virtual ones.

Not that I like EA. But finally SWG can die and their fans can shut up about it.

It's like a million voices cried out at once and were suddenly silenced. Music to my ears.

More like a couple dozen posters cried out at once and were suddenly silenced. If there had actually been a million the game would have never shut down. ;)

 Uhm, yes it would. Even 1 mill subs wouldn't be high enough for LA/SOE or whoever they are. They wanted WoW sub numbers.

Greed > anything

That's great.  SWG did not fail.  So go play the game then.  Since it didn't fail, it is still running right?

 As a matter of fact, it is.

so,,when the patient dies, because the doctor tried to do surgery with a thermometer,

we arrest the thermometer?

no, the very FIRST rule of any craftsman, is choosing the right tool for the job

specially on a big budget project like this

 

 Hahaha, great analogy.

SWG pre cu.

It's still possible to play, do a google search. :-)

If  a game has levels followed by an "endgame" than the leveling period should be really short. A few days. Let it be a "tutorial" to get to know your class and a bit of the game mechanics, then let the "endgame" encompass the whole game.

I don't know why developers waste so many resources on leveling and throw them all away the moment you hit cap. You craft this huge world, but no one plays in it because everything is limited to the high end stuff. Poopy.

On the other hand, I would prefer no levels at all and more interesting ways to develop your character (not "leveling" skills, which is just another form of leveling).

 More or less what I wanted to say.

Never understood and never will understand the obession some people have about wanting to grind rather than play the game.

I want that too, count me in :D

 

Well you can want it all you like. It will not happen. Partially because te SW fandom have said they do not want another NGE and mostly becuase it is not financially viable as it woudl call for a completet and total rewrite of the framework of the game. and the adding of about twice the amount of content that is in the game now (in order to make "real" living worlds and not just wide open spaces of nothing.)

What´s the definition of "another NGE" ? Can you be a little less cryptic?

What would upset the "SW fandom" ?

If space combat changes from Starfox to X-Wing vs. Tie Fighter /Jump to Lightspeed? 

If the game gets other things to do than repetitive gear grind, dailies or reputation grinds?

If the graphics get upgraded from 2007 to 2013 ?

If planets get a day/night change and exhaustion zones get canned?

If speeders go faster than wheelchairs and feel like actual speeders from the movies?

If mobs do something different than standing around like puppets?

 

Let me know what makes it "NGE" please, because in my opinion any kind of NGE can only make SWTOR better.

 Seems like you don't know what the NGE was tbh.

No rather have a mmo built by professionals. Judging by all the whining in general, this doesn't always turn out for the best for the gamers.

Would you drive a car built by drivers rather than engineers?

Would you want an alcoholic running your local?

Would you want someone who's been in hospital a lot performing surgery on you?

 You can play SWG pre cu now if you want to. ;-)

I am still playing - enjoying my Norn Ranger and Charr Guardian (both lvl 80) - working on a few more.

 

To the people who say they got bored - that happens but how many hours in a row did you play. I think many people who say they get bored, play 8-10 hours a day. ANY game would get boring playing that much.

 Average 2 -3 hrs a day for me.

Quit looooong time ago.

Got boring really fast tbh.

even if it was a good game,,the fans would quickly run it into the ground

It simply needs a better engine with up to date graphics, pazzak, swoop racing and JTL like space combat, all planets 1-50, with day/night change, no exhaustion zones and not looking like made out of plastic, NPCs with better AI populating planets instead of standing around like puppets, speeders which are faster than wheelchairs, animal mounts, guild cities, housing, et cetera et cetera.

You know it would be more efficient to start developing SWG 2 instead, because fixing SWTOR design errors and shortcomings is probably like starting from scratch. 

they tried swg once, and it failed

today it would fail even harder, with so many other mmos on the market Which are all the same boring cookie cutter games.

player bounties,,carte blanche for griefers FALSE. You didn't get a bounty just like that.

stuff like that only works in smaller games,,it will scare away the big casual crowd I've never played a game that was as casual as SWG.

and without those,,you will have a game like swtor, swg or tsw

theyre barely surviving, and they sure arent expanding

 Seems like you never played SWG, judging by your claims.

 I'm not.

More fun playing my TKM / MFencer. :-D
