Thread: Why are we getting a mission revamp and the smugglers are getting squat?
Message Edited by Quiet420 on 07-23-2005 01:11 PM
The reason why we got this change, instead of a smuggler revamp is that this was easy for the devs to do.
BH Missions were already in place. Nothing in bounty hunter changed.They slightly modified that if a NPC mission is taken, then there is a% to be a high level mob. If it's a high level mob, this is the loot you can get.

This isn't even one of our top 5 issues and its been addressed. This stinks. Smugglers were promised missions about 6 months ago and all they got from there "revamp" was a slicing systems that was changed 3 days before going live.
Jedi are the most hated profession ingame by the majority of professions, because of there constant attention, but recently I noticed alot of hostility towards bounty hunter because of the "attention" we are recieving.
I am beginning to wonder if this is the start of a master plan by SOE to takeaway player hatred from the jedi and place it on the BH's.
If we continue to get things we don't ask for while glaring exploits, bugged ridden professions and broken promises of revamps, many more professions will turn on us.
What really is bugging me though is if the development wants to show us love, why not combat one of our top issues like
- Offline missions showing up in huge numbers on mission terms
- Droids on Kashyyyk not tracking or giving names
- None of our states stick on a regular basis in PvP
All that will happen after this patchis ALL jedi alts and None PvP players will respec to MBH in the hope of looting some pearls or a cash cow, seeing a massive increase in our profession, again making smugglers, squad leaders, rangers, entertainers, etchate us.
Why must it always be a conspiracy theory? It is as simple as I was working on BH/Jedi missions and ran a few NPC missions and went "Wow, these are lame, Why would anyone want to do these?" So I came into work over a weekend and made some new challenging Marks, created some new loot, and re-itemized.
It was as simple as something was lame, I thought I could make it better, andfixed it up in my freetime.
Not everyone is about the PvP game, and even those that are like a bit of respite from it every now and then. Plus withnice new loot on there, who wouldn't want to kill some Marks?

Oh and just FYI, next time you see someone slap a stormtrooper and start walking your way, try actually doing something rather than stand there like a deer caught in the headlights.
Pop a synthsteak, use AI, Forcerun away, Cloak...Don't just stand there and act like a baby seal preparing to be clubbed.
Ok, gotcha... we see a BH using an exploit, and we are just supposed to run, and not get upset that the BH just misused a move in a manner it was not intended... Glad we are clear now.

Ok, that's great.
Now, let's see about taking care of some of the currently running open issues? You know, the ones that have been around for MONTHS?
Its great to see some forward progress and the game becoming more interesting and varied. Even though I'm not a BH I do appreciate your efforts. We, The Smugglers, would like to cordially invite you to join us for Beer and Pie, and to perhaps discuss the future of the Smuggling profession if we are all still sober enough.
Cheers!
This is the right attitude, the one we want form those guys, they can't organize, but one man alone can.
I am a smuggler and i am waiting as well, but if the DEVs get Blixtevs compassion going, other good things will happen.
Don't scare him off, please.
Don't ask for everything, the moment someone does something nice - 1 hour hiatus at least.
(maybe he's the only one there anyway
) In any case thanks BLIXTEV

Basically as Smugglers we would like OUR developer to come into our forums. To at least tell us..anything?
As far as hating people for gettting attention...trust me BH is not at the top of anyone's list. Be thankfull you have a dev person who posts in your forums. We haven't had GreenMarine post in ours since....our slice revamp. Before that...it had been a VERY long time. This isn't the place to complain about the slice revamp, however I will say things have been pretty Jedicentric in this game and thats why people are mad. It's like someone forgot that there are other professions.
