Creature HandlingFollow

i know how you feel, but i dought it.
at most i imagine theyll add a way to get mounts, but i cant see them going any further than that

from everything i've read on the official boards. they dont seem to be considering bringing back CH, its a shame, but then it wasnt the only profession that shouldnt have been removed..

not sure i agree with that Masterofwar, yes those 2 professions are totally removed from the game, but being able to fight hand to hand, doesnt mean that there are elements of TKM still in the game, same with the other brawler professions, and the marksman ones too, a pistoleer and a carbineer fought in completely different manner, but that doesnt mean that a commando using a pistol or a carbine is using elements of either one, then theres doctor, combat medic and medic, the new medic is perhaps the strongest combat class there is, but it doesnt really include much of anything from its previous 'profession abilities' its more combat medic than anything.

.....
i still think their reasoning behind dropping all the professions, was one of laziness, the reason they gave of making things simpler to adapt to the new combat system etc, is really an excuse.

i only really ever watched the films... and the last ones.. i thought were pretty rubbish.. perhaps because i didnt like the way they portrayed it.. perhaps not. for me, the original films will be the ones i will remember most..

Been a couple weeks since I checked the SWG boards for any whiffs of a rumor regarding any rezz for CH. My boycott of SWG continues, and it will stay that way as long as CH remains in rigor mortis.

Looks to me like they made SWG into another WoW clone. Pick a combat class and start fighting.

Not much use for entertainers, crafters and the other fun classes that made SWG a roleplaying game and not a 3rd person shooter.

Hehe CH coming back is bull...will never happen..I say get over it move on..and if u really miss ur pets that bad go and join WoW..they have pets. and mounts...


But if CH ever comes back i swear to God i'd freaking kill Soe still b/c of the suffering the've caused.

Like when, Mahl? Like just after launch in 2003, when any creature of any level could be tamed? That was gone by November '03. Oh, wait... was it because Graul Maulers used to terrorize the PvP battlefield? Heh... they were nerfed about the same time too, losing their armor and other stats that I have no idea of, because I never saw an original Graul Mauler. (I started playing SWG in April '04, a few months after the CH Nerf of November '03.) Is it because people would pull out their pets in the Coronet Starport and play with them or offer them for sale, adding about one-tenth of one percent to the server load in the area?

How about this: instead of sneering at those of us who actually enjoyed the in-game content that this profession naturally brought to the game, you might want to consider doing something about that three-year-old grudge you're still nursing.

And yes, I am playing WoW myself, and yes I have a lvl-60 Hunter -- but WoW's take on pets, and on creatures in the wild for that matter -- is a weaksauce cookie-cutter approach to the profession compared to the depth of detail the original SWG had built into its creatures. Like Petopia.com (the definitive WoW resource for Hunter pet info) says about bears in that game: "A bear is a bear is a bear." No reason to tame any particular subspecies of bear versus another, other than a different skin.

did you read teh part i bolded?
thats what im talking about

ookkkaaaay.
i agree with your other points though.
im just used to people not understanding wht im saying
