Even though i dont agree with BH to many times, actually this is probably the second time, the 3 day rule should be the total hours online that the Jedi is actually playing the game. At least you would have a longer period tohunt your mark. So in short, 72 hours that the jedi is actually in the game. I know that some will say that they can stay in the house for the time but that also penalizes the Jedi because no grinding no points.

so you are saying that a power gamer should be off the terms in a few days yet a casual gamer dould be on the terms a month? Nah lets use real time. In game time makes things too unbalanced. The casual gamer deserves the chance to fall off the terms too.

Hnglka, what are you talking about? Please re-read the post. It simply says that when you take a mission off the terminals the Mark has to be online and playing for 72 hours total, not just 3 days regaurdless if the are online or not. This way you get the full 72 hours to hunt your mark. I am really not getting your reply.

read the reply. a casual play might log on 2-3 hours a day. that could be a month before he falls off the terms...

Then how about a system email of the times they have been online to pattern their playing time styles that includes a count down timer of mission time left? Plus i have never seen a jedi casual player lol.

sighs* okay lets see. If i play my Jedi hard or afk him that means ill be off the terms in 3-5 days. everyone knows BH only need a small window of opportunity to attack most BH rarely if ever stalk a Jedi for 3+ days. There are some, but they are in the vast minority.
Now if I decide that there are other things I want to do and I play my jedi 6 hours a day... hardly casual by definition but lets go with it. Im on for 12 days. Get the point?
Not that it matters to me in the least bit I'm full template and have been on the terms for it seems like forever, but give the young Jedi a break.

The OP is NOT suggesting that visibility should go away in 72 hours. That takes 3 weeks and there is no sign of it changing.
The current stated intention of the devs (pub 20 notes) is to make your mission timout ("Mission Incomplete") 72 hours after you pull it from the terminal whether the jedi has been online in that time or not.
What the OP IS suggesting is that your mission ona jedi should not timeout and go incomplete until he has been online for 72 hours as opposed to 72 hours after you take the mission.

blah blah blah. no kidding. 72 game hours is a long time for a bh to hold a mission. it would defeat the 3 day decay of missions as was inteneded by the devs in their misguided patch 20.
Im well aware what the OP meant and he knows what i meant. the duration of terminal time isnt what we are talking about.

Why do I see so many Jedi posting on the Bounty Hunter forums. Is there not a Jedi Forum for you all to talk on?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't it just 3 days until the mission decays from your datapad?
Noone said anything about visibility decaying after 3 days.
