The new patch - what to do now?

Post by **Snape** » Fri Aug 15, 2003 8:36 am

Ok so the patch has some good points and some bad points. I wasn't completely overjoyed at being stuck in the PA basement for over an hour cos apparently I was on the highest AND the lowest floor. Thanks again Sau for running over and putting me out of my misery.I think the PvP damage is better now so that you cant kill someone in like 3 hits or so. Still too hard fighting against someone with KD tho. I hate the fact that droids can be DB'd. What's the point in paying 26k for something that could die within minutes of getting one. They shoulda made them like pets.The main problem is it's now bloody hard to get cash - missions all pay about 1k for me although I think that's level based. The explorer missions - while some pay a lot I think it's too time consuming. I think maybe the best way now is for people with strong pets to do Baz Nitch missions and set their pet on the lair, but that's quite demanding on the CH's in our group.I wish I would've spent a lot more time doing the Baz Nitch missions before they were nerfed. I currently have 16k to my name and I need to buy furniture for the PA, a set of new weapons, training cash for SL skills etc.Does anyone have any suggestions for making money quick and easy?

Im so farging clueless as to how to make money now Snape! People are saying its still possible to do the Baz missions but I really dont see how, they heal the lair to much and they run a little faster and if they have a range attack like you said then its useless to burst around the lair.This new patch also fucked me up, I spent a week trying to get my Knockdown and now I got it but the patch made the action cost for my KD higher now, so its like 169 per KD which basically means im dead after 3 uses a cpl bodyshots. The new patch is retarded, also they said that commando is working as intended and the only thing that needs to be fixed on commando is the weapon certs, haha! They basically said fuck Commandos and everyone is furious about it. Check out the offical forums the thread on commandos is like 24 pages long and its nothing but outrages. I dont really like the direction they are taking this game and I dont have any faith in them so far.RaR!!

True dat man.Ardy told me he saw a Novice Commando the other day who was solo-ing everything and everyone in one hit... 2000 dmg per hit using that rocket blaster gun thing. If that's true, Commando can't be all that bad...

alright listen guys here is what im ucrrently doing and it is working well.first u get a high explorer of like 9K of nething, im in wayfar so ive been doing womprats. then do a destroy for womprats. do the destroy, kill lair collect money, and get another destroy. o btw milk the lair for creatures. like shoot it once and stop for a sec to let things spawn. after about, 3 destroys u should have the 30 needed and if u need 45 the u do a few more, so u get about 4-5K from the destroys and the near 10K from killing em. o btw i gave up CH a lil b4 the patch and now im actrually a lil mad about that, but im sellin meh rancors if neone wants em.,

Yeah Zero on this commando thing, yes it takes a long time to get the exp, however it seems to me that they will be the most powerful players in the game(minus jedi of course)so its more of a matter of are you willing to put in the time to do it. I did see what snape saw and it was amazing. He was doing 1.5-2k per hit with a rocket pistol and keep in mind he was a novice no where near master. Now i know this has been a littlw hard on a few egos, few guys out there think they could kill a commando, but they are just terribly mistaken. These werent special attacks. They werent melee attacks they were standard novice attacks. So to bring an end to my rambling. Commandos pwn you all, and chypher and shin get over it they are better then you lol.

This patch ruined houses...you can only store 50 items now and that is nowhere near enough for a artisan/armorsmith...I have to store about 20 different types of minerals/chemicals/gas...And then I have to store components along with the factory crates for synthetic cloth and reinforced fiber panels...Well thats all without including furniture...It just sucks now.

Also, i forgot to mention, i canceld my Ps subscription becuase SOE nerfed my faction 4 times and never once nerfed the others. This is a growing trend with SOE. You get a bunch of whiney teenagers on the forums complaining about this and that and the next thing you know the game you know and love is a walking piece of shit. So, lets hope that SOE pulls thier collective heads from thir ass's and they dont ruin yet another greta game. The amount of people quitting PS is amazing. They cant fill oeven one server when they only have 5 to start. SOE PLEASE DONT BE MORONS ON SWG PLEASE!!!!! dont you love when you are to lazy to fix typos....i do
