The other thing is, Lando was wearing the cape to be flashy as person in charge of Bespin. He wasa figurehead and the cape was a tool to underline his standing. Smugglers actively doing the actual smuggling and all the heroics we do, would be wearing something practical - possibly flashy, but always practical.

Honestly I don't understand why Bioware bothered adding new smuggler items at all. They could just delete all smugglers and be done with it. After all that seems to be their objective, to get people to quit playing the class in disgust.

Though be warned, some things cannot be unseen...

The new smuggler gear looks terrible. It really starts lending credit to the conspiracy theories that Bioware hates smugglers...

I wonder if Bioware is changing the subscription model of the game. If they seriously believe I'll play a character dressed like that, they have to start thinking of paying me a monthly sub...

And in update 1.3 we will get even better gear! Dress up as the republic army's mascot Garry the Gungan Gunner.. The new hat will be an oversized Gungan mask matching the new boots that will be oversized feet... I can just see someone at Bioware already working on an idea like that...

At least you still have eyes. Tbhink of the smugglers who can't sign this petition because they clawed their eyes out at seeing that gear... /signed

My Corso ditching experience were on Tatooine, where Super Corso would jump into the air, straight through the roof and vanish. Probably a crime was being commited somewhere and he had to stop it. Would be nice though if he informd me of his other life and if he didn't run off for crime fighting in the middle of combat.

Here is hoping for the medium social gear. Otherwise I guess I'll be looking like a jedi if I get bored of my han solo jacket.

And still, in the video that's the person standing next to the Sage, Knight and Trooper And the bright colours? That's us...

Check this thread: http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?p=3310667#post3310667 We'll look even worse come 1.2

Well, the coat is the Jacket of Lethality. As Aetou mentioned, one modable version is from Correlia commendations. For more, check link in my signature.

I guess they really like capes. So as punishment for people complaining about capes, they went ahead and proved just how terrible they can make a smuggler look... The person who came up with that look should... dunno what. But they should that...

Next time I carry his things, I expect at least some shooting lessons as compensation

Three screenshots of something that occured in-game that shows how lazy Corso Riggs can be. http://img826.imageshack.us/slideshow/webplayer.php?id=lazycorso01.jpg (hope linking them as slideshow works) This thread is dedicated to all the Corso fans and haters

Iris guy? I take it you mean Ivory? That is pretty much the end of chapter 2 or the start of 3. The end of 2 I think is the heist on the ship? And to be honest? The Ivory chat is the best part of chapter 2 and 3 combined. Safe for one completly silly dialogue on Correlia

The PvP one went down by 200 commendations each but still requires the valor level to buy. It will be removed with patch 1.2 The VIP one is no available for 1mil from 1.5mil at the normal speeder vendor (no longer requiring a vip braceless thus to get to) again only till 1.2 So you can buy 3 limited speeders now at the normal speeder vendor (Prime, Baron, Commander (rep side names)) and one PvP at the PvP vendor for no significant difference

Check the speeder vendor in Fleet. The speeder should be available there ithout requirements (though apparently at twice the price)

What annoys me is that we don't get more character slots. So you can't actually unlock everything on one server unless you spend a lot of credits to buy the unlocks... which kinda makes the idea of "unlocking" via the legacy system redundant. Miraluka, Mirialan, Sith Pureblood, Chiss and Ratataki are already 5 characters you "have" to reach to 50 to unlock the "new races". The idea of unlocking more customization options for Cyborgs means 3 more characters so you have all options on the 4th... oh wait. Already past the limit... Disappointed. Seems like a cheap way to get people to farm for credits while calling it something else.

Alexi, I can see where you are comming from. Like you I too have far more important things to do than to put up with every person online Don't worry about the min-maxing. All species in this game are purely cosmetic. The only reasons to prefer one over the other are eitehr cosmetic or a preference based on movies/books/comics etc.

Genuine trailer? I was hoping for a Rickroll... wouldn't have minded some 80s music. But indeed seems we get to force choke. May mean that a coupe of abilities get unlocked as cross class. Guess we'll have to wait and see.

Oooh! She is Serena from Vampire the Masquare: Redemption. I started slowly playing through that again just recently. Am about to meet Serena there. Will have to pay attention to the voice.

There is a big difference. The Jedi had to put up with 50 levels of crap armor before that. Anyone who hopes for something else at 50 after going through the whole game as a consular is delusional Smugglers have some nice gear up to that point and then they get a slap in the face with capes.

The scoundrel/operative dps buidls suffer from a lack of abilities to close to melee range fast. No force leap, no harpoon to pull the enemy in. No ranged dps to not need to close range... Of course feel free to correct me here.

My commando is a type 1 Mirialan in jedi robes too large for her and a gun as big as she is tall. It's cute edit: put on some esseles smuggler armor and made a couple of screenies: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/259/andosmug02.jpg/ http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/192/andosmug01.jpg/
