What makes me mad is that JustG had the gall to say this is one of the
most important publishes ever. It would be nice if they finally did get
the vehicles fixed so the enter/exit button toggles correctly, or that
the repairs actually stick. The AFK, NPC spam filter is definately
going to rock, but does that qualify as one of the most important
publishes? I am looking forward to finally being able to get the rest
of the hermit badges (only have Intellect and Altruism so far), but
honestly.

This patch is catering to the Jedi population while the rest of the
population stagnates. The GCW has been lifeless since before the bases
came out. Combat in the form of PVP has been non-existant since they
broke combat to prepare for the combat rebalance, except for some
temploiters. Combat in the form of PVE is still messed up as they get
ready for the combat rebalance. The critter changes have been made and
broken back in the January timeframe, while telling us the GCW and
combat rebalance would be ready in a couple months.

Instead, we are now catering to the smallest population on the servers
(except for Rangers) and giving them two publishes in a row while
everything that has been broken still remains broken. Saying that this
is the most important publish pisses in the eye of the game population.

Remember that while these publishes do revamp Jedi, the reason they're the
most important, is that they do away with the hologrind.
Speaking as a Smuggler, I'm not thrilled that Jedi get so much attention,
but the hologrind was definitely a slow death for the game. The fact that
SOE is taking two publishes to fix things is encouraging actually. If this
were EQ, they'd have spit it out in a week and then spent two years fixing
it, as it is there will be MINOR bugs (aren't there always), but nothing
compared to the worst case.
Smugglers, Rangers, GCW, combat will all get love. Maybe not as soon as
I'd like, but it will happen.

ARGH and I am mastering ID at a painfully slow pace.
and this patch only benefits master ID's who already mastered without a
timer.
I think that now what will happen since novices get 2000 exp for Stat
changes we will be PAYING others to change their stats and Masters will lose
money because the players will look for non masters to stat change them for
free.
There has to be a better way
