Damnit. Damnit all. Looks great. Unfortunately I won't be able to do anything with it until I finish working on the house we just bought as well as setting up a proper gaming cave.

Does Commando work at all? :ohdear:

Looks like it's going to be taking the best from the three iterations and doing some updating. Personally, I would love to know more about Pistoleer and Commando as those two were my first loves from preCU. I registered on the site, but there's not so much in the way of a road map for them.

Levarris posted:

Smuggler no longer posesses any combat commands and the entire profession is one simple line focused on slicing and spice creation. It is considered to be a Combat Support profession and therefore only requires 21 Skill Points to Master now. (We have been discussing removing all pre-requisites from smuggler given its reclassification as a support class, and lets face it. It really sucked for combat and had no skills anyway. Smugglers aren't supposed to be warriors, its a job description for people involved in illegal activity, hence slicing and spice creation.).

Really smart move.

It annoyed me to no end hearing Smugglers saying "We're smugglers that can't smuggle!". Yes you can. You carry a thing from one place to another place. It's an RP profession. Any missions from an NPC are nothing but renamed delivery missions. The old smuggler forums were worse than the jedi forums, IMHO

That's one thing I loved on bloodfin... You get to the fun fast. XP caps were the devil.

I think they are aiming for a pretty straightforward precu experience; as it was, warts and all, balance and bugs be damned. I'd like to be wrong, though

I believe the plan is that they intend on releasing it in the precu state (patch 15.1? I think?). Don't forget that it's open source, so if the proverbial you wanted to try and balance the game and add new content? Have at it. Maybe they are fixing abilities and broken stuff and whatnot but who knows.

The Bloodfin forums are beyond terrible. They are "run" by the wife/whatever of the guy that owns the server. Self proclaimed "Queen of Bloodfin". I adblocked what I assume is her stupid picture on the headers with a quickness when I played there.
