This is cool.


I suppose you still can't survey from vehicles, but this may well spark a lot of interest in mounts among artisans. My BE/Chef wannabe Bothan will be inclined to use the mount to do survey work, especially on starter worlds.

yeah, maybe not a huge thing, but it is a very nice thing. I would think that it will generate some interest in having a mount as well as a vehicle. If nothing else, us CH can put some skill points into surveying and hire ourselves out to do surveys

Glad to see you all like the change (a small first step with mounts, but a first step nonetheless). If you do happen to have a Creature Handler character on Test Center (or even a non-CH who can purchase a non-CH mount from one of the regulars),it would be most excellent if you could hop in and helpensure it's working (and nothing new has broken).

About time they did something like this. There was nothing more pathetic then whipping out a vehicle traveling 100 meters stop get out scan get back in vehicle go 100 meters. This should save alot of time on a tedious task. I was on my weaponsmith on my mount rideing out of coronet. Its laggy as hell so it will be just as fast I thought. Besides this character is a midget and I got a brackasette I always thought that looked increadibly cool. Three noobs appeared out of nowhere how did you do that. What skill do you have to have to do that. Where did you get that.


After I explained what a mount was to them, and exactly what a mount could do. I watched with great joy as they all walked over to a ch standing by the wall. I sent him a tell thirty minutes later after checking out my chat dialogue, and he was pleasantly surprised apparantly over the past thirty minutes he had directed something like eight noob players to a BE, and was still in the middle of training them for 15k a pop.


Maybe sunrunner is different from the other servers but seeing a player actually ride a mount is like a deep mystery to new players, and when people see you doing it after a few minutes you see other players doing it. Like they are rediscovering their dusty old mounts again.

I can think of a ton of artisans that have no combat ability that would find this and /gallop very useful when surveying on places like:

Lok
Dath
Dantooine
Endor



This I like, now if they would just give us a flying mount

Hi Guys


I have a Master CH on Test Center, i have for awhile now and i haven't tested it out on mounts but from what i hear the option is available on both Mounts, the creature and the man made swoop/speeder. I'll keep this updated and tell you how it pans out, it may have been a coding issue or i may be totally wrong.


Thanks
