It's getting worse.
Not only did i have an empty waypoint on 3 missions today but 2 of my probe droids disappeared up their own ar$e$ as well.
This week just gets better, I was owned in PvP by a rifleman / fencer stacker last night as well.
Hope someone fixes our profession soon... we suck.Message Edited by Isamu-alva on 03-02-2004 05:48 PM
1. We don't suck!2. Defence stackers can kill anybody3. Not for long4.We are broken profession but we don't suck. You should see mopping the floor with TKM/Master Commando today
Okay we dont totally suck, heat of the moment and anger showing through.
I agree we rock..... at PvE, very rarely have I died in a PvE situation in months.
PvP however.... I was buffed by a master doc, had decent composite and bio engineered clothing that gives bleed defence, had a nice big glucose paste plus brandy + master dancer buff mind pool and was grouped with 3 other ppl, a TKM, a master pistolleer and another and this guy flattened all 4 of us (we all were buffed.
It's a bit frustrating looking at your combat log and seeing "you use [insert special here] on [insert fencer stacker here] and miss" about 15 times in a row. None of my confusion, fireKD's or Torsoshot's landed at all. I think the pistoller managed to knock him down once but cos none of my dizzy attacks didnt stick he was right back up there in a few second.
The guy who owned us wasn't nasty about it and we laughed about it afterwards but it's still a bit annoying.
I hope you're right and we get some love soon cos BH is a cool proffesion.... as long as you dont PvP with it.

I know that we have problems, and bugged marks are really discouraging, but remember that SWG is a HUGE program. I won't be surprised of the source code (if printed) exceeds a hundred thousand pages, and the developers have to look through that whole mess to try to find what is keeping our marks from spawning, and fix the carbineer specials, and fill out the skills for smugglers, and figure out the a good way to control the force-sensitive population, and provide new content, and fix...{pick a forum and you'll find even more complaints}
These guys have enough to deal with, without insults. Comments like "hey jerk off ...fix the f***ing bug" are not helpful. It doesn't provide information, and it's very discouraging. Let's try to keep this positive and help out where we can. If they want details, let's submit them with bug reports every time there is a problem, instead of throughing around insults.
Maybe it would be better if they had not released it as a full game in a state of BETA???
(I was BETA-Player, and yes it has improved since then, but as I look at THIS and some other threads too, it seems it is STILL in BETA!!!)
BUT NOW WE PAY FOR IT!!!

This thread was started 2/12, almost three weeks ago, and not one Dev has taken a couple of minutes to even acknowledge they broke our missions. Nor that they are trying to fix them. We are still the "ignored class".
I don't agree with the way a lot of things are said in the forums. However, when people are pushed into having to vent this is the only place to do it.

how are the devs going to compensate us for bugged missions? round trip tickets to yavin and endor aint exactly cheap when you get 4-5 bugged missions and theres no money coming in.

Hey but the devs are giving us some new mounts......cause you know we all use them.....
Oh anywho Lok, Endor, and Yalvin seem to be the worse for me. I usually start everyday of doing BH missions until I get a bugged one, but My average is about 1mission a day if that. We are just asking for some type of response on what is going on? This is a huge issue and alot of peoples time is wasted searching for something that is not there. I really don't care about the droids and travel costs, its the waste of my personal time which is really frustrating me. At least give us a way to report the issue on the spot so we can get credited somehow for doing a bugged mission.

I was working on Invest 3, but since publish 6 I have had more bugged missions than not and basically decided not to work investigation again until they are fixed. I have /bugged every one that failed to spawn and/or double spawned. Frankly I don't think the devs know what they did or how to fix it, though I have noticed an increase in other bugged missions as well though a bugged destroy mission is just a minor irritation compared to a bugged BH mission.
The bugs to seem to occur everywhere I had one on Naboo, one on Corellia, Several on Lok, Several on Endor, and several on Yavin 4.
The ones that hurt the most of course are the expensive travel fee ones, but as I've been told many times we won't be reimbursed monetarily it's just not going to happen. Customer Service isn't allowed to give credits back regardless of how bugged something is, I had a transfer bug where a 50k tip vanished...twice...and never got a response so I don't really expect one over a few K in travel fees.
I am just going to sit back and wait until the bugs are corrected then start griding again, I don't need the added aggrevation.

Newbie BH at Invest 2 - I have had 3 or 4 of these now and it's getting costly. The one thing I noticed that seemed off to me is that the marks WP were moving faster than usual as I released seekers (i.e. faster than for sucessful missions - as if they were mounted). Might be co-incidence, might not - I have not done enough Invest 2 missions to tell really.
[edit] I also checked for lairs and the mark was in proximity to a lair in every case. Destroying the lairs did not make the Mark re-appear.

Seems everytime i take a mission to endor the target simply doesnt spawn... ive also had problems on dantooine also. Just about all the other planets seem ok. When i say my target didnt spawn, i mean i had seekers update the point until the objective point was static, and used ranger tracking to verify that fact that the computer was saying my target was standing say 10m from me. (and of course noone but bugs and animals in sight)

Working on Investigation 4 with only 2500 experience to go.....but I'm getting totally irritated.
These borked BH missions are driving me crazy. Just today for instance:
1 mission to Yavin 4: Target there - caught him in the wilderness
1 mission to Rori: Target not there, even though a tracking droid is updating the waypoint
1 mission to Lok: Target not there, even though a tracking droid is updating the waypoint
1 mission to Naboo (same planet mission taken from): Target not there.
1 mission to Dathomir: Target there - caught him in the wilderness.
None of these marks reached a population center. All of the tracking droids "found" these guys out in the wilderness, but out of my 5 missions today, only 2 worked.
Couple that with having to stand around 5 to 10 minutes at a time waiting for a shuttle to a different planet, and the amount of money spent doing these missions, this is just a total clusterf***.
Boy, I'm sure glad the Devs are focusing on Junk Dealers instead of fixing BH targets!

I'm in Hard +1 missions and after I get my Mission and talk to Operative. I take out my Seeker Droid. and wait.. All I get is that it gets destroyed or energy etc. ok thats ok.
But Then I get Target's bio -sig was not detected on this planet..
I waited over 10 min and nothing after that. ??
What do I have to do.
You need to use a probe droid instead of a seeker droid.
Probe droids are for finding what planet the target is on.
Seeker droids are for finding where your target is on the planet, after you arrive at the correct planet.
This is not the thread to bring up such questions, by the way - very bad form. You should take some time to read the stickies and FAQ's of this forum. All your answers for your questions are there.
Hijacking threads this way are considered bad netiquette, for your information. You risk getting seriously flamed by this board's inhabitants in doing so.
