That is the one thing that I fail to understand in all of this (apart from SoE flat out denying paying customers what they want)...is that how come the huge Publish 24 Squadleader Revamp was even made - if the powers that be at SoE HQ knew that it was all to change anyhow?SOE loses their license soon because of what reason? Lucas arts is to blame. SOE refused to do some of the things lucas arts wanted to do, which is why Julio Torres (Lucas Arts employee) came in and tried to turn things around. SOE did not want to go through with half the crap, but LA is the big fish. Blame LA, not SOE. LA wants SWG to become like all their other game styles... Battlefront... JK2/JKA... etc. Thought I'd throw this in since many people don't really know the truth.

But only because SoE fucked it all up in the first place. If they hadnt changed the game to begin with they wouldnt have lost the first 2/3rds of the players. When they decided to change it again they lost the rest. SWG is like a desolate ghost world now :/ The game is still fun and has potential, but by the time people re-discover it they will either change it again or shut it down.My bet is that the game is shut down completely in the next couple months.
I liked SWG for its random like 40 man attacks on towns and stuff. Could happen anytime or anywhere, made the game a lot more realistic than World of Warcraft and those fucking battlegrounds.For those who don't play WoW, they have these things called Battlegrounds where u Que up for and its like a 15v15 match and u get honor for winning them.Sounds like fun but thats all there is in the game except the occasional ganking.WoW has ruined PvP with BGs. SWG hasn't.
