With no armour, no buffs, no food, no spice, and no pearls/crystals... I don't think you will be missing much.
Not to mention... no vehicles, mounts or player city shuttleports/cloning centers and no terrain negotiation skills.
not to smart to talk of skills right yet... jedi may have terrain negotation skills with the new skill trees. we have not seen them yet.
plus buffs may not be needed. and as for armor... the cloaks will be given out as you progress in jedi - they add toughness so should take the place of armor (cloaks are not player created)

Bah this sucks, devs post about it when it too late, well thanks very much. Makes me hate this game more and more. At least let people know about stuff like this, it would be kind of nice to try something in the game which can only be achieved by hardcore macro players. Many people long to be jedi, but quite simply have a life, when people get the chance to test one its done in secret, feeling really peeved swear words spring to mind. In fact I hope the whole patch screws up!!!.
post after the fact to prevent a mass flood of refugees from live servers to test for testing jedi.
this allows real jedi to still bring them to test centre and try the new stuff on the testcentre and rewards those who play often on TC with a small carrot for all the troubles they put up with.
I believe that to be more than a small carrot, its very disheartening to read threads like this, in fact I would prefer not to be able to see this kind of post by the devs, alot of players dream of playing as a Jedi and its simply out of reach and will never ever be achieved. I've played on the TC on numerous occassions, whats attracted me has been little perks, like the free creature mounts and speeders, me and some other guy even mapped out the pod race circuit route at Mos Entha, JustG heard about what we were doing and said he never even new it existed, he turned up at our race and placed antenne and tusken spawns all around the circuit, next thing i knew it was on the main swg page.
The thing is if you want to test something you need people the more the merrier.
This is a blow to me, a very big one and expect alot of other people too.
Not nice reading
yep, I'm a fairly regular TC player and I haven't been able to sign onto it for a month now, Csrs wouldn't help me they are always to busy chatting to actually pay attention to people who have questions, then someone told me to do a full scan today and it worked, so now i get to log on after the deadline and my house is destroyed, such a great day.i'm not too sad about my account expiring tonight, i may not renew it after all.

I've had a character on TC now for 4 months. You do some behind the scenes "flagging" to see who logs in???
Every character on TC should of been flagged regardless if they happened to log in the last 2 weeks, in which none of us knew such a flagging was going on. This is a load of crap. I've tested plenty of stuff on TC in the past, just hadn't happened to log in the last 2 weeks, and BOOM no jedi for me.
That sux very bad SOE, very bad.
