What is a hermit badge quest and why is it such a big issue?
Should'nt developer time be spent on mainstream issues that subscribers care about?

Reducing the waits at shuttleports, but not starports, doesn't help me in any way at all. I'm a bounty hunter. My profession requires me to travel all over the galaxy. Getting a faster shuttle across the planet is meaningless when I still have to wait 10 minutes at the starport to get on the right planet. I mostly use my swoop to get around on any given planet, not the shuttle.
You listened to what we said, but you interpreted what we were saying incorrectly. We want faster travel between planets. Keep the routes the same, I don't care about that, but give us the ability to travel faster between the planets.
My last bounty hunter mission (at master, after the droid speed fix) still took 50 minutes starting from Kaadara and returning to Kaadara due to the waits at starports. The actual bounty hunting part part took 5-10 minutes. That means I spent 40-45 minutes standing around doing nothing. I was definitely not entertained, nor was I having fun. Please remember this is a game and some of us don't have 10 hours a day to play on a weekday.

Horrible Publish.
I was hoping for a combat revamp and when they put that off it was bad enough but to see nothing in combat addressed completely is very depressing. Its so horrible the way it is. I really like both the Carbineer and Pikeman Professions. but I give up, rifleman here I come.

where is this..? for the pvp'ers ? its ridiculous that i put up with this everyday in a fight
TH this is what the people WANT......its ruining the state of the GCW...can't you see it? i dont care about wait times and some droid spouting off what im selling. i want the true state of the game repaired. so i don thave to BE a doctor to survive in this game
agree - tell the devs to pull their heads out of their collective **edit**

AWSOME!!
Added an Interplanetary Survey Droid - This droid is capable of using survey tools and traveling to other planets to report on the resources present on that planet.
GREAT! just what we needed, a way for sp spamers to spam us directly. i really hope there is a way to put these on iggy too. this is one thing i cant stand.
Added Merchant Barker Module to the DE skill tree: This module allows for the owner to input a short message that is continuously transmitted to nearby players. It also allows him or her to place a waypoint in the droid that is given to any player that requests it via the radial menu on the droid

Right now the server is pretty unstable. I keep getting to the point where i can't speak, or do anything (i.e. dismount my bike), but the chat channels are still flowing in and I can still move. When I relog, the server bumps to loading for a while and then I can get back again. Many buildings are not "popping" when I go by, both in player cities and NPC cities - it seems random, and sometiems they reappear when I logon a different character.
Hopefully this will be resolved by a downtime or minipatch tomorrow.

I'm concerned about the droid barking capabilites.......... as is now, we can /addignore someone that is being innappropriate or hogging the space in a chat window, however, (that I know of) NPCs cannot be /addignored
so this means that while in Coronet, nobody will be able to read spatial because there will be 50+ spam bots there
I suggest that NPCs particularly these barking droids will be /addignore-able
thanks
