Do you plan to do the new bounty system and keep going as aBH hunting jedi? yeah, its what I do and I'll learn to adapt
Do you plan to hunt NPCs only for now on? no, NPC's are boring
Do you plan to keep BH and just do PvE? no, PvP is one of the main reasons I picked BH
Do you plan to drop BH and do something completely different? nope, Ghavin' was made to be a BH
Do you plan to try it and if it sucks do one of the other 4 choices? I'll try it and keep with it, if I don't like it I'll just make a new character and keep Ghavin' a BH and wait until there are fixes if the new system really ends up killing BH as a class
I plan to keep going as a BH because its fun for me and I like playing the role of the BH and takin down jedi.
I'll give it a chance and see how the DEVs respond to the player base... If the DEVs never plan on giving us back the name of our mark at some point during the hunt (could be via the informant *or* the Arakyd planetary droid search *or* even only when we get on planet and launch our seeker) then I likely wont continue down the BH path.
I think taking away "rank" on the terms via generic payouts is bad enough... You never know what Jedi you're going against and many of us dont have the templates to fight a full temp Jedi (or even the desire if we did). However, I understand low level paddies were bearing a huge blunt of the BH attacks and I can understand not wanting low level Jedi to feel like they are being "griefed".
However, being able to put the Jedi on your friend list to ensure his online status at all times *and* being able to /tar the Jedi once on planet are extremely valuable tools that will only be so much more valuable when names and payouts are taken away.
I am not asking for a "easy ride" but I dont have hours and hours to spend each day on SWG... BH payouts is my only source of income for buying weapons and armor... I cant afford to make less then 250k+ a day with the way the economy is these days... I need to be able to quickly acquire my marks and discard those that are either offline or that I know from experience (or the grapevine) are Jedi who are known exploiters/runners or templates I know I dont have even the slightest chance in beating....
Anyhow, long story short, If SOE is going to just cuddle the Jedi population even at the expense of others I will sooner just switch to a Master smuggler/commando with pistols 0-0-0-3... Then instead of killing Jedi via BH terms I will just do it via special forces and make my $$$ slicing
Vezek Yep.
If this system really, really sucks I'm definately out of here. Causual, non-guilded PvP or GCW is pretty much dead those few quests that are left won't last forever.
Shooting down UFOs in WWII Online isn't bad either and I'm certainly not going to see any pwning Jedi there.
I have pretty much had it with this game if the devs continue to gravitate away from timeline. And jedi population continue to grown without any control.
I'm looking forward to Lord of the Ring Online. Thier webpage looks promising and it seems to become a well-balanced game with big roleplaying content.

I plan to try it...see how it goes.

Finished template, equipment, practiced alot, understand more of the CU and Jedi themselve, since the CU went live.
So I am gonna give it a serious shot again when Publish 20 hits, focussing on Rebel Jedi.
