why not?


they are planning to use such a system for the smuggler revamp I heard.


I'm in this game forStar Wars, if it means that my professions need balances (nerfs), so be it.


but give every profession a fair chance instead of putting one down and giving others extras. it seems like they are giving jedi a helping hand here...they just want to ease the grind for the padawans who are attacked the whole time. (I know as my jedi is all the time)


let BHs hunt other players...can be fun too, as it's a different story as all players have learned tactics to attack jedi and adept to jedi attacks/laser rifle attacks, not normal templates. but should a BH fail his mission repeatedly, he should get a visit from other BHs as well or a powerful BH NPC as what SOE plans to do with the Smuggler Revamp mission failures.


I'm in it as long as it is fair and adds to the SW roleplay/universe.

I doubt we will ever see this. The ONLY way they would put it in is if were a voluntary thing--similar to you selecting in the control panel to make your character "searchable". They would have to create a similar switch that allowed players to decide to make their character available to player bounties. Otherwise it would be too open to griefing.

"Just add bounty hunters who fail or abort a mission to the terminals."


Aborting a mission shouldn't have a penalty. What if you took a bounty and then found out it was a friend or guildmate?

Make it to where if they engage the target and die then jabba, nym or whomever the faction was would say you have failed me and you would lose x amount of that faction's standing. When you hit negative then you get put on the terminals to be hunted. Sounds good to me and makes perfect sense.

Welcome to Star Wars Galaxies. The biggest name in the history of marketing with the smallest fanbase in online gaming. Who'd a thunk it?

I'd love to hunt other BH's or non jedi prof's, I'd probably give up hunting Jedi and stick to non glowstick weilding kashyyk grinding ***censored*** altogether. thier attitude has always sucked.

Not to me. Many of have -5000 Nyms/Jabba's faction standing. Half of SWG would be put on the terms...
