Galaxies Players Headed Towards Dark Side With Lawsuit
- Thread starter vansau
- Start date
What is going to make this worse is those whiners are now going to spam every single person who had an account with Galaxies to join their lawsuit. Nice thing about class action suits is only the original plaintiffs are going to be coughing up the bill when the judge throws this out of court.
Which s/he will.

Well this is a way to make people want to develop a game for you. Plus we all know that, despite what they say, these people will jump ship to The Old Republic as long as TOR doesn't screw up hugely

Imagine this: I want to file a class action lawsuit against, say, PETA. And I go to their forums to recruit people. This causes disaray.
People just want to keep forums in order and on topic. A split like this disrupts it.
Also: word to the wise for anyone thinking of joining. In the past, members of a class have been forced to pay when the lawsuit gets thrown out. Think on that.
You and others really need to realize that TOR will be NOTHING like SWG. *insert yeah it won't suck joke here*BrotherRool said:
Fact is SWG was one of maybe 3 MMOs that was a sandbox. It was the only Sci-Fi sandbox MMO and now it is gone. TOR will not be a sandbox. It will be an MMO on rails like WoW and all its other clones.
I am quite shocked the hate supposed gamers are giving fans of SWG over this. I really am. The fact is this screws over fans of sandbox style mmos and other gamers on these and other forums are celebrating this? I really will not understand it.
Can you even do that? Sue the company that made the game you've played for however many years because they want to shut it down? That seems like suing Mcdonalds because they stopped making your favorite meal after 10 years.
Sure its sad to see a game they love go down, but this game had a long running, and sony is in the right to do as they please. Now if it was an unexpected warning, then I'd see why they'd be pissed, since theres the subscription fee.
What is Sony supposed to do? Let people think that enough signatures on a petition will save the game, giving themselves false hope, then pull the plug anyway? There's no good way to handle a situation like this, and at least Sony is giving players a 6 months notice, and even 3 months for free when they probably could have just shut it down for good yesterday and been done with it. There really SHOULDN'T be such a big hubbub over the game closing its servers. I was actually surprised it was even still around.
What Lucasarts should do is try to make a deal where long time SWG players who play up to the end can get some exclusive goodies for their TOR account.

I would get the irony if it was Sony sueing them but seeing as how its the other way around it is quite originalKeith K said:
So they're mad because a bad buggy game is going away despite the amount of hours they put in even though SOE is well within its' rights to do so...?
Why can't they just let it go and go play SWTOR?

I think it has something to do with the fact that the liscense is expiring and to pay that much for the chance at such a little payout is just silly. Besides, they do not want to compete with TOR when it comes out.RT-Medic-with-shotgun said:
I agree that it may be sad, but there are much more important issues.
Not surpised. No one likes it when something like this goes, some people put so much work into it. What Sony need to do is offer dedicated played of SWG some in game stuff when the new one comes out.
Something like EXP gain increase or some cool in game items plus a month of free game time ontop of any trials that my exsist. You know, just something to let these people know that:
"Were sorry about closing down your game, but, the new one is even better and we're gonna let you have it for free for a bit so that you know that it's awsome oh and he is some free stuff that you won't be able to use cause there is no way in hell you'll be able to get to the required level unless you pay for more game time."
