So does this mean i will get a jedi??
More than likely not. But I was hoping for the same, us non-Jedi possibly getting Jedi
Absolutely awesome, JustG.
I'm really glad you guys responded to the issues people had with the first test - the vehicles and the credits are above and beyond and will really aid in testing.
It's great that you guys recognize that we can properly test a system like this if only given the proper tools. We need to be out there testing crystal drops and Jedi skills; running deliver missions to pay for things isn't testing anything but patience.
Thanks so much, and here's to a great round 2,

Excellent work, I'm quite impressed with the dev team's effort on this. Take that, whiners!
I think the reason that there was so much noise and complaining about the rough start is because most of the players were live Jedi, not TC regulars. Coming from live servers, they didn't expect so many bugs to appear, altough it's basically like that every patch when it first hits TC. Maybe they'll stop complaining about TC players not doing anything now. ![]()
Man, that was danmed quick work. Mad props for getting a more useful testing toolset hacked together in record time.
Very very cool. Can't say this enough.
And the crystal drops? Excellent! Flood the market and finally put an end to The Great Crystal and Pearl Ripoff!
Very very cool. Can't say this enough.
To all you whiners: There are only so many hours in a day and this is just the next step after the weekend insanity. Blah blah blah...so you didn't get everything your little hearts desired within hours of the devs punching in to work this morning. You'll get over it.
One thing at a time.
Now we get to retest a bit of refined code on the conversion process and the loot drops. As well as actually getting what we need to see exactly how good a sabre it is possible to make.
You know what - that's GOOD ENOUGH FOR ONE DAY. More than good enough, it's outstanding.
To the uber-whiners: Shaddap.
Geez...
Very very cool. Can't say this enough.
I would like to add my own heartfelt thanks for thecoming wipe, the care package, and the incredibly quick response.
THANK YOU!! ![]()
I've been testing games for a while now. Testing is not like playing a game really. It is its own kind of fun. One becomes more patient with the process, more resourceful as a player, and can derive a lot of satisfaction from interaction with other testers and form the knowledge that OUR work is making the game better, more balanced and untimately more fun for everyone.
I chose master CH for the weekend, and I shall miss my lovely new pets... And I'm sorry that the 10 mounts I was raising to give to my fellow testers will never even get close to the saddle now. But it's only a small regret. I'm happy that we all get to start over again.

TC2 is loading.
thanks for the one star..... I am simply reporting a bug loser
any chance u can bump up the number of jedi testers on TC2 with all the people logged on from a certian point? im just curious and would like to test jedi
Guys, please think for a moment. Turning all xp earned, in Jedi XP is the best thing that can happen for low level Jedi. In the current system, once you reach the 4th box for sabers in any given tree, all xp there-after that is earned with a saber is completely useless. Thus, you wear out your saber and only get 10% of the xp as Jedi xp (what you really need) which is a huge waste.
Example: In the current system, when you kill a giant baz nitch, you get 5000 saber weapon xp and 10% of that is Jedi xp.
In the new system, you would get 5000 Jedi xp for killing that baz nitch, and an additional 10% of that is Jedi xp also.
Why is this sooo good for low level Jedi? Because most of the xp you need to advance is Jedi xp and NOT saber weapon xp.

Please consider having Saber xp needed to advance in saber skills instead of Jedi xp. It is already painfully slow to advance in jesi skills as it is. Maybe increase the amount of Saber xp needed to advance in those skill boxes.
The low level jedi will have a very very painful time trying to advance if they need that kind of jedi xp to level even 1 box in light saber.

JustG I think I speak for most if not all low level jedi
Another pass on the XP data
okay this one not 100% the full meaning of XP data - that could just be me
Marging all XP into Jedi XP
This one is rocking the boat far too much .. you are saying that the current TC2 Saber Tree's are correct and you are going to pass this ... to get a 4th gen saber in the new system you would have to compete 4 0 4 4 in the current system ...
you guys must talk with lower lvl jedi's on this one ... that would be an insane move to say the least
What they ^^^ said. JediXP for sabers is wrong. Please either convert it to LightSaber-specific (as in the old system), or lower the cost for boxes. It just makes more sense that way.
