Thread: FEEDBACK: Jedi Missions No Longer Showing Player Name, or Bounty Payout

Also, look for kashyyyk to become a complete jedi safe haven now. Without the name, how are you going to hunt on kashyyk? Run around tabbing through everything till you pick up your mark?
QFE! QFE! QFE! QFE! Q FRIGGEN FE!
1. Full template Jedi need to be balanced withthe elite combat professions.
2. Remove XP from Kashyykk since it will be impossible to complete a bounty on that planet.
I dont like the idea of no longer showing player name or bounty but if they are gonna do it they should show faction, ONLINE Jedi, and hopefully give us a name after we get bio-sig. If none of those are implemented I dont think MBH is going to be a very fun profession anymore. And if it's not funI might as well not pay anymore.
As a BH: Glad to see that the BH mission system won't be an easy tool to use for harassment. Glad to see that Jedi can't get their buddies to hold their missions and make them unhuntable. Hope that all mission payouts are made the same, regardless of jedi skill level, if you are taking away my ability to choose my marks.
If the terminals do not show offline Jedi and if the droids now work on Kashyyyk then yeah it would be ok.
But without a name and without droids HOW are you supposed to find a jedi on Kash? Come on throw me a bone here. And don't tell me to learn my class, Without a name, without droids, without knowing if they are online or offline. Find the right jedi on Kash, I dare you.
Removing payout sucks though. Whenever a fugitive is wanted the bounty is always listed as an incentive.
Bottom line:
- Remove the names if you want as long as the terminals do not show offline jedi to avoid wasting incredible amount of time and droids.
- Make the droids work on Kash if you remove the names. Or else Kash will become a safe-heaven literally where jedis can grind away and even then it will be hard to nail afkers without their names.
- Removing payout is just retarded. If I need money I don't want to waste my time on a 70k bounty.

Great idea, for the names being removed you still get a bio signature and it can cut down onsome of the playergreaving, worth a try atleast.
I can see all the jedi seem to love this. You don't think there are other ways to solve such a problem without removing the names?

Im just reposting what I had posted in another thread about 2 weeks ago... needless to say if these terminal changes go live this game will loose atleast 1 long time BH. I will not hunt in a dumbed down version of BH.
Sorry in advance if reading this post you think im being a bit harsh... But I have been a BH for a long time and I dont want to see the professions I love to get dulled down because of the jedi constent whining about us killing them.
On my server, Chilastra, We have probably some of the best Bounty Hunters in the game... I dont say that lightly either. Im not talking about kill counts or fighting ability, Im talking about the actual "hunting". We have a long history of keeping tabs on all jedi on the server. It started with a list of jedi names started way back when jedi first unlocked... We had the first ever completed jedi mission on our server with some of the foundations for the BH system we have developed in place.
Recently most of these Bounty Hunters were united under 1 PA . While in this guild and watching us work together you really get a feel for what I always though BH should be. One of our newer more unexperienced members would ask about a certain jedi, and the vets would be able to tell him... Where the jedi hunts, what PA he is in, what faction, where his houses are that he might run to ect ect ect.... Vital Information for a true BH.
The fact is we do have these lists... We know everything we can about hundreds of jedi on our server. We have the Waypoints of there houses, cities, ect in our datapads.
If you take away our right to see thier names at the terminal, you will make us nothing but nameless waypoint chasers. Even if you give us names when we get the probe droid back.. it isnt the same at all.
The jedi say its unfair that BHs can pick and choose padawans and "bottom feed" once again, It seems to me the Jedi are blaming US for them being on the terms. Im all for giving them a Master/Aprentice system or perhaps no Visablity for groups ect.... Personally I like to hunt padawans because they still have something to loose. (now all the jedi will say im just in it to grief another player ect). What fun is jedi if you have nothing to loose? What fun is BHing against a mark that has nothing to loose? That would just be normal PvP, which I can find alot more of just by joining a group and going SF.
Please dont ruin the Bounty Hunter system by making us nothing but waypoint chasers.
If BHs had not been Ganking Padawans in groups of 3-5, and Picking on low level padawans constantly then this fix would not have even been proposed by the devs.
Blame your Bounty hunter brothers for this change, not the Jedi they were ganking.
This is ridiculous. Just helped my brother get to lvl 80 MBH yesterday. Was really looking forward to grouping and taking on some Jedi Knights. Now this won't happen. The devs have taken away the most fun aspect of the BH tree. I can't wait to attempt to take a mission and show up and get STOMPED by a full blown jedi. Or wasting my droids on offline jedis. Or even better, not being able to know who I'm looking for when the jedi is hiding on Kash. It's going to be a tedious, waste of time. How typical. I loved this game, but of course itwas too good to be true.Looks like we'll be leaving the game, since we're pretty much done with everything else and was going to start hunting jedi exclusively.
Why cater to jedi? Do you want every single player to spend all their time to become one? I guess it's a money thing. The longer you need to grind XP = the more money you have to spend to play.
