Howdy folks

Long time no see :-)
Well, just got a bit bored with AoC and some of my guildies where playing SWG. Well, I told them it sucks but they told me they had redone the game(again).
So I downloaded the 14 days free trial(could not find my discs) and having quite some fun :-)

If you are bored and need a bit of fun it might just be the thing.

Cheers

I'm called in sick from work due to Mononucleosis ( kyssesyge ) so I might as well pass the time with something :-)

[Kendric]

hahahahaha, sorry to hear about you being sick, be carefull when you buy sex :-P

I got this for you :
One of the other guilies wrote this , might just give you a glimt of whats new :
I just made lv 10 with my female Jedi, its fun to play, tried a Commando too to lv 8, also fun. Think there are 9 proffesions to choose from when you create your character.
-----------------------------

1. The game is level based now. From 1 trough 90, with support of feat points from 10 to 90, for every 2nd level.

Character Attributes Breakdown:

1. Strength - "Increases chance you will hit for max damage with melee weapons"
2. Constitution - "Gain 8 point of health, and 2 point of action per 1 point constitution"
3. Stamina - "Gain 8 point of action, and 2 point of health per 1 point stamina"
4. Precision - "Increases change you will hit for max damage with ranged weapons"
5. Agility - "Increases the chance when attacked you will be hit for minimum damage"
6. Luck - "Increases the likelihood you will have lucky events happen to you. These events can happen while in combat or healing, and while selling to a junk dealer."


Resistance Breakdown:

1. Kinetic
2. Energy
3. Heat
4. Cold
5. Acid
6. Electricity

Quick PvP briefing

There are 2 factions in this game, Imperial, and Rebel. You need to be either one to participate in PvP battles. (Unless your a Bounty Hunter, cos then you can kill Jedi anyways. :P )

3 different PvP modes.

1. On leave: Neither NPCs or Players will be able to attack you, and you cannot attack them
2. Combatant: You can attack NPC's and faction NPC's of the opposite faction will attack you on sight. (No matter if your 70 levels higher than them...so they are a bit annoying!)
3. Special Forces: This is the "Red is dead" mode. Anything that can walk from the opposite faction can and most likely will attack you if you run around in Special Forces all day ^^

ah k.. same system as when I trialed it about a year ago I think.. was still a huge disappoinment

[Breeze]

Well funnily enough I've started playing this game again and I have to say it is much better than it was. The game is stable, crafting has been made a little simplier (but is still fairly indepth). I'm a bit dissapointed that it's gone the level route...but I'm enjoying playing my Jedi (currently lvl 76) and my structures crafter, whom I leveld to 90 in 3 hours

Player cities are very established, though I did have to move my characters away from Eclipse as that server is dead. Currently on EU Farstar and the population is pretty good!

Tired the space combat... and it's pretty difficult, will keep at it though!

I gave up on SWG, tried EQ2 and I must say its a blast, great graphics, smooth gameplay, I love it :-)
