The guy that stated there is NEVER going to be a pre nge/pre cu is TOTALLY WRONG.

There IS Pre CU and my long standing account got banned for talking about it here.

See, that was easy.

For me it was my first MMO and I found an avenue to persue my secret desires to be one with the force. Even if it may exist in an geo-centric universe...it was still epic to me. Think those who played it back in the day can appreciate what it was and have every right to 'hate' it now like a bad love. SOE was shady and slithered in a patch that changed the SWG world forever. I was mad as hell when it  happened and remember to this day how they just dropped it on everyone. Admit it or not SOE opened it up for another genre that didnt go over so well and in the process ruined the very idea of an MMO for thousands. Everyone has and have had great points on both sides. It just comes down to your level of expectations in a game. Mine was pre-cu so sorry for being upset with SOE. Sony is a shady company imo and experience. So all you 'don't hate' haters and everyone else...don't want to hear the whinning then don't read a thread about whinning. I also agree what is done is done and maybe it is time for those old SWG salties to start hating on some other let down MMO.

You must remember clowns are a crafty lot, they are not bound to keeping their word, as so long as it is done in a funny manner; well most of the time, depends on the type of clown.  Do understand Jester may very keep his word, but use another means to mask his identity, just to get to you.

He never said that he couldn't use other materials or blur the camera now did he?


 

He said "without makeup or mask." Direct quote. Now, if he chooses to obscure his identity some other way, I guess he'd technically be "keeping his word" ... however, it would be a rather cheesy way out of it, and I think would draw more attention to yet another failed "prediction."

Of course, in the world of Disgruntled Vet-land, failed "predictions" don't mean anything, they are simply swept under the rug as if they were never made.

attack is a little extreme, try sick and tired of nge fans permeating this forum complaining about us.


 

Attack is FAR from a little extreme, in fact it's dead on. Anyone who does not toe the Vet line -- SWG is the worst game ever and John Smedley should be strung up by his balls -- is dismissed as at best a fanboi, a viral marketer, or at worst an SOE employee. It seems impossible to the people around here that someone can like the game despite its flaws, since you don't.

In any world besides $OE's, what most of these "vets" do here would actually help those that are still playing the game.  Most companies listen to their customers, both past and present, take notes accordingly and try to actually learn something to increase profits and increase interest in their products.  Why $OE, still, does not even have a clue, well, it just boggles the mind.

Most of these "vets" want a classic server and I don't know a single person, outside of SOE Austin, that would not concede that such a deal would increase server populations, $OE revenues, make for a more interesting gameplay situation for existing players and new players alike, might just go along way for the CHANGES that $OE Austin has plagued the game with, and should teach $OE just exactly what their "methods" of administrating SWG have done to themselves.

Anywhere, but $OE world, someone would "get it".

Instead, you all got a "card game" which is taking players out of the virtual world to make servers seem even more desolate.  Incredible.

Lordlow has a good point, I left for nine months after the NGE all because of the way it was delivered, after a while my resentment passed if yours hasn't thats fine I guess the game didn't mean that much to me to be permanently alienated from it, still flaming everyone that even mentions the game after this long is messed up you have to admit. As far as Esquires statement, go back and read the part I posted about the Sony having a foot in the door on all things Star Wars if that doesn't clear it up for you, I don't know who could explain it to you. And as far as you go MichaelCr, did you forget the rest of that post?

1. I love how people point to the card game as if it's something that SOE invented, or that didn't exist in other games.

2. Capitalizing the word "CHANGES" constantly is becoming rather trite.

3. None of what you posted even remotely debunks anything that I've posted. Far too many people around here take their dislike of SOE and SWG and project it on those who still play the game with absolutely no fear of reprisal, yet still throw themselves a pity party and insist that MMORPG.com is out to "get the vets." The hypocrisy, doublespeak and groupthink around here is simply stunning.

1.  As I'm sure you know, TCG is just another attempt at maximising dollars.  There is no attempt there to re-populate servers, fix issues, fix bugs, etc etc.  All it is, is a way to drain more dollars from the existing player base.  Does not even matter if another game, such as WoW, has it or not.  At least Blizzard has the player base to support such an addition.  Money, time, and resources were put into TCG via Sony/SOE.  Do you honestly think these resouces are placed in the best manner they could be for the betterment of SWG?  Where's the most "bang for the buck"?

2.  OK, Capitalizing the word CHANGES may, indeed, be trite.  But the CHANGES were and ARE the reason why we are all here.  If there were no CU, NGE, GCW re-vamp, C6CD, GU-whatever, stealth nerfs, nerfs, etc. etc, you or I, either one, would simply NOT be here and discussing anything.  We would be, in the game, paying SOE cash for the privilage.  I capitol the word "CHANGES" specifically for $OE as that is the ENTIRE reason this board exists, the other SOE "hate" sites, the reason why SWG population numbers are now in the dump, and the reason why thier revenue is so low they have to come up with TCG to try something, anything, to keep it all going.

3.  I'm not trying to "de-bunke" you in the slightest.  We have had many a spirited discussion on the SWG boards and I very, very, rarely resort to "flaming" other posters.  This IS NOT a problem between you and I, it IS a problem between SOE and it's customers, both past and present.  This includes both of us.  I'm am sure that BOTH of us want the best for SWG, I am aware that you know very well what would help SWG, and it would seem NEITHER one of us can get thru to SOE Austin.  That is the problem here.  It's not unsubed "vets" against subbed players, or at least it should not be.  $OE started this junk, they caused this so called "war" between the player base, and they ARE the only ones that can clean up their own mess.

I did notice you didn't "debunk" my points, either other my my "trite" use of the word "CHANGES" which, in all probability, will continue right up and until $OE figures it out.

And here, I thought your personal "pet pieve" was my use of the term, the Chapter 6 Combat Downgrade.
