“The forums and the game are down for 12+ hours, and they work even worse now? SOE never ceases to amaze me.”
There have been plenty of vocalized complaints about many things that have come the way of SWG playerbase. But nothing speaks louder than videos. (Because apparently, no matter how many words are being expressed, they still think they’re doing a good job.)
Of course, if the direction the game is heading is any indication, videos don’t much either. (But they are quite entertaining.) Some of these are tributes to PRE-CU, which, according to most of the elders (including myself), would happily be welcome back over the NGE and the many things they have managed to fuck up along the way.

“I wonder how SoE acctualy managed to come up with the ide to ruin something that there costumer loved….
Oh wait.. It wasent SoE.. its was all of you. Complaining. Whatever SoE did, you keept on complaining. Next time you play something you love. Shut it”
Then how is it that games like WoW continue to do so well and yet never have to “revamp” at the rate that SWG does and has? How is it that games like EQ continue to grow in popularity and never really lose the main focus of the game itself? How is it that these games are not only able to perform so well (especially WoW. Flawless performance even with every graphic setting turned up all the way) and yet SWG continues on a landslide downward?)
The players aren’t coding the game. We aren’t changing its direction. We’re merely voicing our opinion of a service that we not only pay for, but draw enjoyment from. It’s asinine to even begin to blame the customer. We have at one point asked for game enhancements, but not once did we ask for them to completely break it.
“i just mailed SOE yesterday and today i got a mail back that pre cu comes back in the next 2 month god im so happy”
That would imply that they actually listen to anything the player base has to say. Which is incorrect. (However, fuck me running if I’m wrong.)
It really is kind of sad.
