Последний респек!

[rasst]

***Respec Changes - June 6th, 2005***

Based on feedback received from our customers on the forums and at Fan Fest, the Development team is revisiting the respec issue to allow one final respec. At this time, the exact date of this is not finalized. Please keep an eye on the Update Notes on Launchpad and on the forums under the Announcements section.

Customer Service cannot assist players with respec issues. All players that have placed tickets regarding /respec please remove them from the Customer Service queue so that we can better assist other players. Repeatedly submitting tickets for /respec issues will result in the closing of the ticket without a response.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Кратко: девелоперов окончательно достали воплями о неожиданно закончившихся респеках, а тут ещё и фанфест случился, где все обиды были высказаны лично, и теперь обещан ещё один, самый распоследний респек. Когда - сообщат дополнительно. СЛЕДИТЕ ЗА СООБЩЕНИЯМИ В ЛАУНЧПАДЕ.

Пока суть да дело, я докачал Рыс без респека. Так что последний мне в принципе не нужен. Однако последние походы наводят на стойкую мысль, что без Тигора вообще никуда не пойдешь, а с Тигором нужен, скорее, дамаж дилер, чем танк. Может, перекинуть её в Ranged-профессию? Если да, то в какую?

Кто-нить может это внятно перевести?


Report from the 2005 Fan Fest


Here are my notes so far from the forums. I attended:



I will put these in categories when I get back home.

(Also there are some duplicate notes I know, ill fix it later)



Disclaimer: This is all my interpretation. Take nothing as gospel please.



"+ 25 is the cap on clothing"

This is working as intended



A request was made for a Galaxy Correspondent.

This request was well received.



The new slicing systems appears to be near completion

"Expect to see it on Test Center in June"

This new slicing system will likely include a greater chance of some failure for the sliced item.

For example, your weapon will have a chance to jam.



The character wipe (for canceled accounts) is still on the schedule



Droid Tracking on Kashyyk

Dev's would not answer. They may not yet be in agreement on this issue was my sense.

Another dev stated that “this is not likely to change”



A lot of questions were asked about new content for crafters.

No clear answers were given, and I left with the feeling nothing is currently planned.



Note: The dev team has a tremendous amount of work on their various priority lists

(concept/planned/in development/etc.)

There is far more on their wish list then they can possibly deliver, so it is all about prioritization.



Also it was noted that the dev team spent too much time on CU and RotW to the detriment of live. They admitted this mistake.



The dev team pledged to spend 50% of their time on live and 50% on new content.



As such I have tried to categorize each of the comments made into one of the following: wish-list, in development, and in progress. These are my subjective ratings since the devs never really say no (not very often) out of politeness, but it is not to hard to read an implied no.



The clone terminal fix is in-progress.



"Jedi should have to sit down after 20 min." -Tom

It is their intention that jedi should not be able to fight continuously.



Linking groups seems to be planned

"Current group size will stay at 8" -Tom



Ranger 'love' is on the schedule



Squad Leader 'love' is also on the schedule



The plan for the new FRS system has been submitted to Lucas Arts for approval



There was a significant emphasis on what is called the "planet revamp".

This appears to be a localization of mobs on all the planets

For example, if you are level 50 and want to hunt level 49-52 pickets, you will know where to go.



Z axis LOS (Line of Sight) seems to be in progress. The dev team was coy on this one, so it is probably coming soon. There was speculation among the crowd that this may have to do with combat mounts/vehicles.



2 new ships are in progress



Duel weilding appears to be in coding now



Last ditch should leave you with 50 points of health, not incap you (but may incap your target)

This is working as designed



A longer cooldown for avoid incap is under consideration



Healing (CM/Doc) should not draw as much agro as it currently does.

They are looking into this



Concusison shot (and other mezz shots) should daze (paralyze) and any damage taken should break


it.

Exceptions to this may either bugs, or exploits.

/startle /concusion was brought up as a problem (exploit perhaps)

Devs are going to look at this one.



Head Hit/Leg Hit/Torso Hit are working as intended. They attempt to target (may or may not be


sucessfull) that area. For example, if you head hit someone without a helment, it should do much


more damage.



Your should be auto-targeting your attacker if you currently have no target. This is currently


bugged and is being looked at.



Ranged attacks for pets were broken by the CU. Dave is working on this now.



Inability to use lower level specials

But currently is by design to help simplyfy the game.

Force run was brought up as an issue.

No definitive answer given.



Force Run changes are in progress.

No details given.



Rifle/Pistol/Carbine speeds will probably be reviewed to counter the



you can stack up to 3 bleeds, but must be head/body/leg

visual cues show it



can we re-deed our old pets?

dev-we dont want them re-used by someone else, but maybe a stuffed house pet



BE's will get new experimentation

critical hit

critical save

taunt bonuses



there will be a new method for creature handling training

they want roles for creatures

like a tank creature, whos stats are reflected for this

of you can train a creature to be faster for example



if you sample off a mission instead of random, will it be off the mission level, or the actual


creature?

dev-off the creature



level 150+ quenkers that do one-shot kills

289 djm spawns are broken

tell us where they are and we can fix them

use tickets

pm tiggs if you cant get csr to help

they need more date to fix it



some of the ultra rare pets are 1:10000



the elemental damage fix should be in the next release



aoe for heavy weapons is not working as intended



the fix for increased range cybernetic arms exceeding the range of turrets is on test center now


and should be in the next release



player city starports

dev-probably will not happen, would further empty npc cities



space battlefields/zones are on dan rubenfield's wish list



the badge for the crimson tie is incoreclty the rebel badge

devs are looking into this



findfriend in space is on their bug list



replenish/repair bug is on their list



ship strakes are not intended to add anything but art

they will not give additional ship mass as stated in the knowledge base (kb will be fixed)



sw crafting with factories

devs-no, as intended



dan is planning to tweak the speed of ship (droid) commands



personal combat in space is disabled for frame rate issues, and will likely stay disabled



droid grouping in space is a bug and not intended



plazma and conduit alarms are still bugged, looking into this



ship to ship boarding is in the 'wish list' stage



dan wants to see more firepower on the pob ships



the devs are not happy with the current state of pvp (ruled by jedi) and the highly antagonistic


relationship between jedi and bh's

they are considering many options

one option is a 3rd tier for pcp "elite special forces" if a jedi goes 'overt' he will be placed


in the third tier only. therefore all non jedi can fight in the 2nd tier curent special forces,


or 'choose' to join the jedi pvp in the 3rd tier



the 2nd and 3rd phases of the gcw revamp are on the schedule

devs-now is the time for sugestions



faciton pets are not usefull

dev-noted



faction rank has little meaning

dev-noted, give us sugestions to add to our own



vehicular/mounted combat seems to be on thier wish list



factional chat channel

dev-noted with enthusiasm



factional uniforms for women

dev-noted



notificaiton when your factional base is under attack

dev-like it, noted



more instanced content is a very high priority

the current system is not a true instance, they are 'faking it'

they are coding a 'true' instanced system now



an at-at seems to be in the works



Hoth seems to be the next planet in the works



they are considering new abilites for ID such as the ability to disguise someone as the opposite


faction



the new slicing system will include a chance that your sliced item will fail



not being able to slice a bio-linked item is a bug, on the list



badges will soon enable new titles



the burst run exploit is being addressed



the duel macro exploit was uncovered (by gaarawaar and me (tinkerer)) in the game room

expect a fix soon



force run will become a togle



no, or reduced visibility while hunting with a group is under serious consideration

as is a master-padawan relationaship



additional items disclosed as coming in the next release:

new animations for jedi

fix for armor break (strength is reversed)

power strike will be fixed (increased)

elemental damage fix

fr toggle



perls are dropping only as good/quality

dave says he will investigate this one



adding blue glowie is under consideration



why are dark/light powers not segregated in the jedi skill trees as they used to be

dev-we will address this with the new FRS

dev-for example



direct quote from dave white

"a bh should be the master of 1-1 combat. if you need a group of bh to take your jedi mark, maybe


you are not so cool"



dan r. stated that it is their intention for bh-jedi combat to be 1-1 only

as such, they are very likely going to remove jedi names and bountie payouts from the bh terminals



can we trade jedi xp for fs xp?

dev-hmmmm, that is an interesting idea (dev takes a note)



jedi robes do not give visibility



jedi xp may get reset in the future (remove negative xp)



mayoral races may be shortened from 3 weeks



crystals maxing at 110 and perls at 120 is as intended



they may add a npc toggle to bh terminals

Пока вижу одно страшное: чаров на заканселенных аккаунтах будут удалять.

Слайс - новая система с больше вероятности порчи предмета (о возможности ремонта не говорится).

Ревамп Ranger и Squad Leader.

Восстановление способности avoid incap после применения могут сделать дольше.

Возможно, лечение будет реже вызывать переключение врагов на медика.

DJM 289 левел хотя пофиксить - что не нравится, не ясно. Сделают CL84 и фиговые аттачи?

То, что в PvP рулят джедаи, девам не нравится. Категорически против.

ЕС! ЕС! ЕС! Хот - следующая планета! АТ-АТ - в планах!!!

Джедаям могут обнулить экспу (из минуса), а также сделать контаркты на джедаев анонимными - чтоб BH группой не атаковали.

Остальное - мелочи.

[Demiurge]

Не совсем мелочи.

Наконец-то будут миссии на БХ, провалившие несколько миссий подряд.
Джеди против бх бой будет 1 на 1 всегда.
Сейчас делаются "настоящие" инстансы.
Ну и понятно дело стыковки кораблей между собой в списке пожеланий.

Вот теперь вроде основное все

[=SF=Sergyo]

Пока вижу одно страшное: чаров на заканселенных аккаунтах будут удалять.

А вот с этого места поподробнее...

[rasst]

The character wipe (for canceled accounts) is still on the schedule

Дословно: стирание персонажей (на закрытых аккаунтах) по-прежнему в плане мероприятий.

Других подробностей нет.

[Corneliy]

Со слайсом - Tiggs говорила, что прослайсенное оружие может начать сбоить. Любой smuggler может привести его в норму. Если этого не сделать, оно может сломаться совсем, и починить его сможет опять таки smuggler.
