Thread: Why failed missions should not get BH on the terms
Man I've had it with jedi whiners. They get everything handed to them on a silver platter at the cost of being hunted. They whine about a class that's been ignored by the devs for the last two years. Now that we're finally working (so to speak) you guys want us hunting ourselves because you can't handle it.
No wonder people hate jedi. You've gone from the permadeath extremely rare class you were meant to be, to being a dime a dozen. No matter how many of you we kill you keep growing in numbers. Jedi are a disease.

So are you scared to get hunted? This post is ridiculous. Many bhunters openly admit that the only reason they hunt jedi is to grief them to the point of making them quit the game.
Weget 0 penalties besides some decay if you die from a jedi(guess what they are not going anywhere NEWS FLASH). Just remove all jedi xp loss take them out of the gcw and let us bhunters hunt all players who participate in the gcw say through so much negative faction or whatever the devs work out.
I mean really how fun is it for these jedi to stand around in theed or the mining outpost and have their stupid duels. The effect wears off after a few minutes. If that is the end game for jedi let them have it.
Also make my at-st worth something and make a jabba faction so that the hutts can pit out bounties on players as well for both factions. Most smugglers would welcome a bh attack. As would alot of others I would guess.
Take it or leave it the devs will do what they want so maybe they can implement some of my ideas to better this game.
Thanks

The point of visibility for jedi isbecauseALLjediare wanted dead by the dominant enity in the galaxy...the EMPIRE. When a Jedi irresponsibly reveals himself as being such, he gets himself thrown on the terminals...period. JEDI ARE NOT EVEN SUPPOSED TO BE HERE! Being hunted is the devs attempt at keeping jedi somewhat in check...to no avail
There is absolutely NO reason a Bounty Hunter should be on the terminals.
I believe there should be a player bounty system, but a voulentary one.
Hey Jedi, you DO remember that you have another character you can play right? You Jedi isNOT a regular character, its a BONUS character that you've worked to unlock, and is subject to penalties if played irresponsibly. If you don't want to be hunted, and want to chose a PvE style of play, then play your regular character!
Bounty Hunters do not have this option and absolutely shouldnot be put on the terminals.
Depending on the rules, it could be entirely voluntary. Nobody forces a BH to hunt Jedi.
And our Jedi aren't "bonus" characters. They're our mains. The unlock character is the "bonus".

Jedi are upper i fail to see why bh even are consider to lose xp or place on terms for a failed mission. Bh are weak fighting a jedi thats why 5 bhs vs 1 jedi came to be unless you make bhs as equal as jedi so i don't see this idead going through.
The only jedies who want this are low lvl jedies and if this passes your going to see allot of bhs going after low lvl marks cause there isn't talk about peeps who take their own mission so their jedie won't get ganked when lvl jedies grind.

I thought the BH mission's against jedi were to force jedi to stay hidden and to punish them for failing to. The more fixes that come to jedi the more I think that the DEV's want to be making jedi academy. Once again we get a punishemnt for not playing a jedi or trying to get jedi.
Well first, Jedi bounties are acceptible because the Jedi is basically an outlawed profession during the time period that SWG is set in. Second, Bounty Hunters are a perfectly accepted profession in this time period... obviously because the Empire employs them to find and deal withvarious undesirables. So if Bounty Hunters are placed on terminals, I say that ANY player should face the same possibility.. in fact, lets just get it out there and implement player bounties on any player and any profession!Why the heck not? Nobody seems overly concerned with the continuity of this game in the context of the whole Star Warsstoryline so lets have the Jedi hunting bounty hunters, scouts hunting muscians,riflemen hunting dancers.. oh yeah, that's right... the Empire has not outlawed any of those professions. As I recall, with Luke Skywalker their view was pretty simple... join us or die.Old Ben Kenobi had to hide out on Tatooine as did Master Yoda on Dagobah. Vader as I recall was directly under the Emporer's control. I wonder... has anybody at SOE actually seen Star Wars?
