Thread: Jedi Population Cap
It's not fair for the players who are trying to be become Jedi. I am a Jedi, but I do not see how we can deny other ppl trying to become one while I am one. Either its going to be open to all players, will disband all Jedi at once. Hmm, but you could install max hrs a player can spent on his Jedi and that will make players to play their alt a little... (cuz I RARELY play my alt).
Think for a second, if "you" grinded hard and wanting to be Jedi, you get an e-mail stating although you are NEXT in line to be Jedi but due to the overwhelming population of Jedi community we cannot make you a Jedi till one of the current Jedi delete his character... That will suck.
This is America, free enterprise, not a social-communist nation.
Hmmm. not a flame really but May I ask if the One who started this thread already has there JEDI unlocked..? OR are you willling to give up yours for someone else to get that spot..Because otherwise it would not be fair to let others have it when noone else can.. LEVEL playing field of game play is what they said for SWG.. Capping a Prof would not be a level playing field..it would cut off an item that I cannot get but someone else had a chance to get....And even if you made it to where we could still achieve this by if someone drops out kinda deal thats still not going to cut it... due to most players hold onto there accounts for YEARS.....
I do agree there are alot of Jedi around I am not curently one of them.. I am on may way as well.. and I agree something has to be done but to make it a completly unfair type of game would not be exceptable in any means..
But if you could come up with better idea we that do not have it would be happy to listen to it.. and folow along most likely.... as long as its still achievable then I dont care how long it takes me.. its still an option...
again not a flame but needs more then A CAP IDEA>..that seems to be what everone cries...when the chips are down...
Nuff Said....
No, you're actually the first.

I would like to suggest,and I am sure I am not the first to mention it, that the developers institute a population cap on the number of Jedi allowed in the game.
i havent read the whole threat (sorry im lazy ehhe) but its its about the nerfing
we aint gotten that badly nerfed , it was coming to us , we were enhanced in some1 parts , like a friend of mine did 1.8k damage with powerhit just now. Force armor etc very nice. But the healing is the only real nerf and it is well diserved and st ill managable
I dont think they should have jedi in the advertisments at all because that makes all the new people coming from the total experience and what not are gonna instantly want to be a jedi. so with this advertising the number is just gonna grow. Ive been asked about 50 times how to become one. Just a thought

If they spent money on making a promo showing playing a jedi, it would not be very advantageous to them to put a cap on it now or in the future. Sales based on new-players who come and want to play jedi vs the jaded player who cancels his account because he doesn't like the amount of jedi are what are driving this decision, I'm sure.
Being a jedi is a huge pull for the game. A lot of players want to play jedi. A lot of players want to kill jedi.
It creates a very fun game for those who actually just go out and play the game, and stop worrying about everyone else. No matter how many jedi are in the game, they are not hurting your game experience, they are just hurting your pride for wanting to play something elite.
No matter how much I see people complaining about jedi, the average dantooine mining outpostgroup of 8 only has 1 - 3 jedi and most of those people in the group are awestruck by seeing them there.
Just play the game, enjoy what you have earned. 
Remove Jedi from advertisements, and cap the Jedi population. Two things that, for better or worse, will never happen.
Jedi is a HUGE selling point for this game, even though there's so much controversy over it. And they won't deny anyone the ability to become a Jedi. What they should have done was make the path to Jedi long and mysterious, not just long.
Hmmm just a quick thought WHY NOT give another server and start from scratch maybe a new one for all spots in world so everone has a chance at being on a NONE laggy server.. and make that server CAP.. so that way nothign changes on servers as they are but new servers have choice FIRST COME FIRST SERVE...JEDI..who ever gets there first gets to keep it on that server..
Makes sense to alleviate some stress.....Maybe ......Huh......Oh I dont know it was just a thought..
Nuff Said......................

I've never seen a game that needs to break its own rules and implement specialty servers more than this one. There are tons of requests for Jedi-free servers, all-Jedi servers (not that one so much hehe), roleplaying servers, etc.

HAHA a non laggy server... what game are you playing? should add that to the things that will never happen. EVERY MMO has laggy servers not alot you can do its just a variable that cannot be controlled due to player(s) activity and population.
