You've been getting a little pushy with your comments lately Nighthawk, let's stay cool and not completely trash those who are just trying to help.
The timer is too long on the grenades. DetPacks were used to level buildings, not grenades. Grenades are anti–personnel. Anyone who says detpacks are only mines is wrong.
As for making the Jedi and Sith scary and rare, this is typically the approach of any star wars game, and that's because it works. If people are constantly crying about them, it's because they don't play as Jedi, they suck, or the Jedi are broke. You can fix one of those.
Stop. Adding. Broken. Stuff. Why would you add flamethrowers when you can fix the weapons we already have and perfect them? Five flamethrowers at once, and I can guarantee lag. Ten at once, more crashes.
As for the Republic needing more stuff, I agree...ironic, if you read what I said above. But I think it needs a new class to balance the game. Something to rival the Magnaguard. I think we have wookies coming though, so it can wait a few updates.
