I could live with it on the condition that a mission only counts as failed if you get DB:ed by the Jedi. In other words dropping a mission(Kash, houssitters) Jedi running away should not count as failed missions. Especially now when there's a three day limit on missions.

"There was lots of reading, much too much, in the game. There was a lot of wandering around learning about different abilities. We really needed to give people the experience of being Han Solo or Luke Skywalker rather than being Uncle Owen, the moisture farmer. We wanted more instant gratification: kill, get treasure, repeat. We needed to give people more of an option to be part of what they have seen in the movies rather than something they had created themselves."

we dont need to give yet another reason for BH to leave our beloved proffession and go jedi ...



and it would discourage some of the few jedi hunters left to quit jedi hunting ( not all but some) ....


i think the BH bounty should go out on BH that have WON many battles not lost many battles .. the BH that loose too much are the ones that arent as good in PVP ... if your going to put up a regular class of people to be hunted .. make sure they have the skill to defend themselves .. afterall we arent jedi .. we dont have the luxury of having templates designed and built stronger ...so let the experienced skilled PVP'ers fend off BH attacks







Why would somebody who didn't want to be hunted go jedi???

because if BH are going to be hunted .... they might as well go jedi ( so some people may feel ... ) i mean at least then they are more powerful while being hunted ...


like i said i dont have a problem with it ...but when you have the content jedi has in the distance ( FRS) .. an expansion bringing lots of jedi goodies ... and then the possibility of jedi being able to hunt .. well hey thats a hard thing to pass ( plus ya get an alt, out of the deal .. not too shabbeh )

OK I saw this idea, in another post I think it is in the Smugglers Next Target post???

But essentially, what if you could recieve a bounty on a Bounty Hunter which has failed to eliminate the target. The spynet could be angry at the failed BH, or perhaps a new operations host could come in. This happens all the time, I just dont have any Star Wars refrences, but still, It probably happens in real life lol!!! But more importantly, it would force Bounty Hunters to actual play 110%, because if they run the risk of being hunted they are in trouble. Also, Jedi might reconsider running away, if they could not be bothered to fight...

I realize that there would bealot of ways to expolit, but overall this could actualy make the game a bit more intresting!!!

Please discuss, you dont have to flame, Im downloading the 6 hour patch, I have not played in ages... But I have read up a bit, andby the looks of it, something needs to happen!





or we could jus tget every mbh a mission then everyone hunt them down on the same day and really annoy the jedi

This does not work because according the bounty hunters creed(code) one bounty hunter should never attack or interfere with another bounty hunter. Seeing that we all work for the bounty hunters guild, we must all follow this code(otherwise we'd be kicked from the BH profession). Boba Fett hurt other bounty hunters on a regular basis, but he works alone, not for the guild, and as there is no way for us to work alone in this game, we don't have that option.

In order to introduce more player bounties into the game I think a few things need to happen. First, there needs to be more factions for players to choose from. Second, they need to fix other professions and give other professions content so that not everyone is a bounty hunter. Third, once the factions are in place have jedi and smugglers on the terminals and factional enemies, lets say there is a cap of -25000 jaba factions, once a player reaches that they get a bounty put up by jabba. You could do this with all the factions and this would allow us to hunt the faction farmers that ebay credits.
