The only two bounty hunters that I know that teamed up and worked well together was Zuckuss and Lom?? The rest were always wanting to work as independants. Heck there are even instances where one bounty hunter tried to take the mark away from another one(Bossk, IG88, a few others).

Jango worked with zam whateverthehell when he was contracted to kill whoeverthehell (honestly, all I remember from episode 2 was jango being the badassest mother****er ever, and the fact that he had to kill his partner to keep from being discovered after failing)

My only concerns are that:

1. BH hunting stays focuses on hunting Jedi. The reason why BH vs Jedi was put into this game was to emphasize the PvP element of Jedi and to slow the development thereof

2. No possible way for Jedi to "cheat" the system thus preventing a BH (or even discouraging a BH) from hunting and killing them.

BH vs Jedi is a DEV implemented design as has been stated over and over to be working as intended. Unless the DEVs decide otherwise and/or another method of Jedi progression control installed, BH NEED to be vigilant in hunting Jedi. Once a Jedi is full template he is very difficult to beat and, more or less, has no more "danger" in playing his Jedi. This state of Jedi must be limited to the greatest extent and very hard to obtain.

Distracting BH with getting ganked by other BH, while it may keep with the SW "theme", could very easily become a distraction and even adiscouraging factor when hunting Jedi. Any instance where a normal toon is forced into PvP must be looked at very carefully for Game Play vs SW Realism balance with Game Play being the most important factor.

I guess i'll have to repost my points for this in one cohesive unit so people don't have to read the whole thread.

Proposal: Enabling Bounty Hunter Vs Bounty Hunter Combat when both hunters are hunting the same mark.

When two bounty hunters encounter one another and they are hunting the same mark, they are allowed to attack each other. If one bounty hunter kills the other that bounty hunter is "locked" into finishing the mission. When "locked" into the mission, the bounty hunter can not pick up another mission until the mark is dead (killed by the victorious bounty hunter or another hunter who has the same mark) OR he drops the mission with an appropriate penalty (bank account deducted by amount of bounty). This will limit the number of bounty hunters that are highered by Jedi to protect them and will underline the consequences of violating the Hunters Creed. (A hunter that kills another hunter but does not finish the mark is basically violating the Creed). If a bounty hunter successfully defeats another bounty hunter and kills the mark an appropriate bonus is added (double or more the posted bounty).

Why do this?
A bounty hunter can call himself the best but he becomes the best only when recogized by his peers as the best.

here's my complaint, Jedi are too WEAK!!!!! If the devs would pay more attention to a bounty hunter jedi fight in the movies they would realize that an average Joe bounty hunter cant take a jedi. I don't care about how BH complain, that's the way jedi should be or your ruining what Lucas set out to make. Im not a BH or a jedi, but i can kill a BH no problem and outlast a jedi knight, hmm....that's a problem!!

FRS: I haven't got a chance to get in the FRS, but i can tell u it doesn't work already. Plain and simple u got everything after knight the same strength, just who has more time and money to let somebody kill them for rank. My idea in the FRS should be who gets more Jedi profs mastered. I know most of u think well that makes a player TOO strong, well ur right it does, butaJedi Master is someone who has mastered every aspect of the force, not just 2 and a half!!! Of course don't just make it some biglong grinding thing,keep the point system so u have to balance PvP and grinding, and of course some long boring quests with maybe some different rewards for jedi so not everyone has the same thing.Back to the issue,someone who has earned the titleJedi Guardian should be way more combat effective than someone who has knight rank!Which brings me to another point, why in the gameis there only1JediMaster? If i recall there was a 12person or thingcouncil, butkeep one Dark Jedi Masterand make them more powerful than the Lightsideof course, with Mods and such. Jedi Padawans should get 2 jedi profs mastered for the title, 3 for Jedi Knight, 4 for Guardian, and all 5 for Jedi Master! Now all u BH are thinking hell no that's to damn strong! Ur right, but how many BH did u see come up to Yoda or Mace Windu and just have their way with them like a little school girl. Maybe throw in some sort of Jedi Fame rating that also works for BH in the since of killing Jedi or for the Jedi how many BH have they thwarted off in a row, so like an unskilled padawan cant get his ass handed to him by some desperate for cash BH that has a higher Fame rating, it wouldnt be worth his time or effort to kill something so weak and pathetic! Yes im saying who has more time and is more devoted should get the power, whether it be some little 14 yr old punk kid or some 30 yr old virgin who lives in his moms basement, but its still attainable for someone who works 40 hrs a week.

GCW: Ive been trying to more active in the GCW, plain and simple that doesn't work either! Ifu declare allgiance to a faction, u should always be on active, no such thing as leave in the movie, did Leia ever say to Darth: "Oh, my 5 minutes is up and my papers gone through, im on leave now so u cant capture me!" If she did there wouldnt been a great movie saga! I hate fighting in Coronet and getting killed there, cuz i have to go to another planet to get back on active then come back to the fight where the other side is waiting for me at the starport. EVERY PLAYER THAT DECLARES REBEL OR IMPERIAL SHOULD ALWAYS BE ON ACTIVE!!! This game does not have enough Random Player Kill, i get sick of hounding rebels to fight me, if i want some PVP i have to offer a prize to some one, that's bull$hit!!! Jedi as well should not be in the GCW! But Sith on the other hand should be. Why u may ask?Who controls the Empire... some Sith Lord name Sidious and his apprentice Darth Vader!! Not until the end of the GCW then Jedi should be locked in to some quests that help take down Vader and Sidious. Yes i said help, cuz if some random Jedi kills Vader or Sidious that just doesn't make since,a quest where the players help on Endor or are in space trying to blow up the Death Star!!!

Theres some more complaints and ideas the devs wont even take into consideration, and more complaints from BH's to come!!! But what SOE says about forced PvP wouldnt be if u listen to the idea above!!!

Can we please get some REAL Star Wars content in this mother fu....
