I thought online status was going to be added as well, though. That'd save a lot of time and Arakyds.
How do you waste probes, when they just don't launch if your mark is offline?
I don't mind the new visibility changes. A jedi off gaining exp with a group of other jedi doesn't bother me that he's not on the terms. I think if he wears robes into a city, fine, raise it. If he runs around with his LS equipped all the time, raise it. If he'sduelling in front of a Starport... well, he should just be allowed to be attacked immediately.
As long as the name comes along some time during the hunt, I'm fine. I WOULD like an idea of the bounty as I'd like an idea of the level of the Jedi I'm going after. As I'm new to Master BH (no, not a respec, I had to grind my way to the top as I wanted to know what I was doing when I got here) I'd like to have some less lethal marks I can go after until I get better. After getting my arse smacked down a bunch of times I'm just going to not enjoy the profession as much and may stop hunting all together. I'm sure the Jedi wouldn't mind another BH off the hunt.
But isn't the point of having BH vs. Jedi to make the Jedi's life harder? To make people think twice about being a jedi so there aren't so many? If you don't want to be hunted, you should be forced to wear regular people clothes and carry pistols or no weapons at all. (Hell, a macro can get you set up to fight in an instant anyway.)
If they do implement these changes I don't think they hate us. First off, it's probably a suit's decision. Second off, there is ALWAYS resistance to change. If they implement the changes and a month later there's still as much bitching, cancelling of accounts, etc... and they don't do anything about it... well... that's discouraging.
But, frankly, I'm waiting 'til this patch comes in before I hunt my next Jedi. Yeah, I'll probably get ganked again but at least I won't have to sit at the terminals refreshing until I get a jedi that's online, then, after finding him, finding out that he's a rebel and I have to drop the mission anyway.
So, very happy with the Online/Faction changes. Not so sure about everything else.
