I'm happy with it, less terminal refreshing, more fun against full template jedi. I killed one, and was a half second off another, andif pub 20 hadn't went through I wouldnt have even hunted them.


Only problem: 4 straight missions on Kashyyk =/

Yeah thing as the guy above me (other than the happy with it), but seriously, they should consider putting kashyyyk as a planet on their bounty, to save us some time. Takes us long enough to get there, and not all of us have RoTW

"Forget it, that's just how i feel, and i'm sick of this damn talk. You keep telling me that i'm wrong, but for the first time, i'm sure. For once i'm loving every second, and i'm not looking back. Everyone has their own reasons to be happy. This is not an excuse to act defiant, i'm finally choosing my own path, and i'm finally finding peace. And everyone should feel this way, but since they don't, that's why this world is screwed. And i'm sick of always plaing dead to fit in with the rest. Everyone should have their own ideas for the better, but not act defiant, to choose and make your own path, to find your inner peace. Keep telling me that i'm not the same, keep ranting on about how i've changed, this i'll decide for myseelf. I'm the same kid i've always been, outlook on life is all that's changed, still i will be here until the end, my heart will stay, my heart remains."

"I'll try my best to live each day better than the last. To find the strength to fight, to hold on to what's right for me. And you should try your best to make this last as long as your heart allows it, and to make this count (for you). I'm not invincible, but i believe in myself, and i believe in Straight Edge. We all die someday, i'll die standing for what i believe, and i'll stay positive (and i'll keep focused). In all sincerity, this means the world to me, and i'll give everything. Choose the battles that you live and die for, it's time to make a start. Whatever it is that you have to fight for, to anyone with heart, make your stand."

"Listen up everyone, it's time to hear our fate. They've got us on the end of our ropes, they've drove us to the end of our own road. It does not lead anywhere, this road, it can't lead anywhere. A pack of them are coming this way, who are they? A pack of them are on the move. Like the indians, we're strong in our own way, unlike the rest, we have unity, respect and strong minds. Hold down there walls and set in their way, we'll take on each and every day, we'll stand tall, above them all, we're rising up and we won't fall."

I've had enough of your hatred, your mentality sucks, you're way to negative. I thought we were all here for fun, not to compete and beat each other up? Lets take the put downs and leave them behing, and set forth with open minds."

Alone in a crowd, but we're still standing strong
With X's up fists and sing alongs
Times like these are what we live for
These days are more than we'd ever hoped for
We're still here, and we'll never forget the words we said
Time flies by, and the promises made will stay with us
Through our lives
We're not finished yet, that's right
They tried to break the best of us
But still our hearts are true to promises kept

I posted this a couple threads down. Not sure if it is a bug or not. I lauched a tracker earlir by mistake, it ran its course. I launched another with seek and got the name. Well after that I went on 2 missions. I used seek both times and never got the name. I launched one with track, then se4ek givin me the name. It appaears to get the name, ya need to be on that planet thye on. Launch one with track used, when it is done launch one with seek used to get the name. if ya use seek first ya won't get the name...

Ok you tell me what self respecting bounty hunter is going to take a mission without knowing who they are going to hunt much less not even know how much they are going to get paid. This new system is a fuggin joke. Did SOE ever bother to get feedback from real bounty hunters? Jedi with a BH alt to hold their mission doesn't count. This Pub20 is lame and make no sense what so ever.

Jedi logs on, gets visability (mission is generated) but no one happens to pick up said mission.Jedi logs off. Is the mission of the now offline Jedi still on the terminals?

Psst. You get the Mark's name from the seeker now. It's not that big of a deal. except for Cantina sitters, AFK house maids and AFK Wookie haters.

Missions work fine and "as intended"

Tracked an anonymous rebel jedi to tatooine hunting krayts. Found that he was a padawan, I still lost.

I am MBH - M Carbineer - 4000 Combat Medic.



In my experience, 75% of the bounties I have taken post CUhave been on kashyyyk. Of course, those are the jedi that are not complete templates, andstill have to get their experience...



The other 25% of the bounties are full templates, and are sitting around on miscellaneous planets, waiting for us to come shoot them so they candestroy us 1v1. ( FRS not far off now eh tanks? )



So the bottom line is,if you aren't a MBH- M rifleman with root, I don't see how it is possible to solo a full template by yourself, since most of the time, those are the only jedi that areattackable thanks to Kashyyyk.Even if you grab your anonymous bounty that isn't afk in a house, or on kash, you can make a safe bet they are a full template, that can not be killed by a MBH. They will just FR3 away, cloak, run into a house, or they are a Mdefender.


So somebody tell me the reason for having player bounties in this game now, except for us being the future FRS fodder for the jedi knights?

Yeah I know, that still doesn't answer my question. What kind of bounty hunter takes missions without information up front. Fuggin joke.

Well, I am a Jedi and oddly enough I agree that this publish has some major flaws. I don't think SOE ever stops to think about ALL aspects this change could bring. While I am ok with no group visibility (After all, SOE pushes group hunting but then punishes Jedi who group?), I have a problem with the complete anonymity of Jedi on terminals. While it's ok to hide the name of the Jedi, it is pretty stupid to hide their level. This eliminates any BH from taking down any full template Jedi as they can no longer get a group of Bounty Hunters to take down a high end target. This further goes against SOE's love for grouping. A Jedi can have up to 5 missions pulled on them at once, this promoted grouping of BH's to take down a tough, higher level Jedi, now, that is all but gone. BH's are forced to "solo" their profession. Like I said, you can hide the Jedi's name, but to hide his level and the cash you're after is just....well.......stupid. It simply was not well thought out. Is SOE's defense, most of their changes aren't thought out.

I like the changes as picking up a mission is a lot easier now.


I've gone after three jedi so far. One on Dathomir, one on Dantooine and one on Tatooine. I was able to get my seeker to return the name of the first two marks but when I told my seeker to'scan' for the mark on Tatooine it didn't give me his name. I had to get within 128m andtab through the enemies to find my mark. This forced me to edit my bombdroid macro while standing near my mark




Can anyone else reproduce this bug?

Tried 7 missions in the last half hour or so. 5 were on kashyyyk and 2 went offline before I could launch my Probot. =/
