Thread: Publish 9 Feedback: Hero of Tatooine
I looked for this farmer 12hours and i don't found him yet. I thought i should look after the bounty hunter, but after 7hours driving from city to city or waiting 3hours in Mos Eisley don't bring my oppinion about this quest in a positiv way.
The pirates are waiting somewhere for me since 9hours.
If you can count, you can see that i'd searched the people for nearly a day! So i must say this quest is the very last thing.
Looks like we might get what we wanted.

Seems as if the DEVs managed to get Bria spawns up and running...why not Ahazi or Bloodfin or Eclipse or any of the

Day 9 and no BH spawn, or an official confirmation that its broken!
C'mon FFS!
This is ridiculous.......
Yes there is a problem as I have already posted. It is not spawning correctly on all servers. We are investigating a fix and when we know more we will let you know.
Ok. This is good news, but some of us don't understand why this is a difficult thing to fix and why it has taken literrally weeks.
Remember, this was one of the touted features of Publish 9 and it only worked for about 1 week.
In any case, it seems that players have figured out what the problem is, and the fix to that problem cannot be hard.
In some cities (e.g., Mos Taike on the Wanderhome server), other NPCs are overspawning. Thus, for example, there will be multiple groups of 3 to 5 Spynet Operatives standing on top of each other.
This overspawning and overpopulation of white NPCs seems to prevent the spawn.
If the spawn does not appear in a particular city because of this, it cannot be utilized and the spawn will not move to another city.
Thus, no BH spawns at all.
The fact that the aboveis the problem is evinced by observations of players in servers where the BH spawn is working.
On those servers, there is no NPC overspawning/overpopulation.
Therefore, the BH and the related NPCs are able to spawn, be used, and spawn again elsewhere.
How hard can this problem be to fix.
If the Devs can go in and respawn an NPC, as they have with the Agrilat Swoop Track droid when it has mysteriously despawned, I'm sure they can go in and despawn some damn Spynet Operatives.
I also suspect they have the ability to manually spawn the BH and observe what happens with him, and figure out if he is respawning after use.
Come on folks.
