Heh heh. I just read what was given for info. Didn't jump to conclusions, didn't spaz i didn't get my old man when I logged in yesterday. I just went and hunted some meat, did a mini-theme park. Adn everything happened *exactly* the way it was told to us. I dont mean totrash people just for trashing them, It just bothers me a little that everyone seems to get SO MAD over stuff that has been explained already.

There are definate problems with the game. There are things that are totally f*** up. I think alot of work needs to be done and this is still a late beta test.

But this part is working. who knows if the sith are working heh heh.

Sorry for calling you a name, but I think people have a reason to be upset and vent. If it werent for people whining on the forums, we would probably not even have 1 Jedi in the game to begin with. Whether that is bad or good is another story.





No worries man. two months is looonnnggg time to sit in limbo. Yes I'd be upset too. I have been hammering both threads just trying to get folks to slow down a bit. The system is there, and from i have read/experienced it *is* working.

but ya, waiting sux ass.

The system is not working. It is screwed up. It is giving visits to the least deserving.

Ive tried everything, ive been over numerous planets, logged in and out, speant hours alone in the wilderness, listened to storis from players who havent unlocked and not even completed 10 professions receive their visit.


TH why do you continue to screw the people who unlocked the way you first designed it over???? We get to padawan quite quickly but we need to enter the god dam village first, what are you playing us sort this mess out now.

Theres something to think about here. (I got a little confused, so I am assuming you are a post-9 unlocker)

Yes you deserve something more than me. (I got the old man under the new "glowy")

You deserve to get all that xp from the 30+ profs you did BACK
I am going to have to grind the same amount of xp to get Padawan.

If you are more deserving of something than I, *that* is is it. When you walk past me in the village, you will be going train in multiple fs skill boxes. I will be on my way out to grind combat xp to get my first 1/3 of the first box. You will be ahead. And I think it fair regardless of whether i agree with the grinders or not. you got that xp in hopes of jedi. you had to surrender it, and you should get it back. which you will.

But as far as the old man goes, I really think it should be thought about like the hero of tat quests. Its a spawn. some will get it before others. even though I have had my visit and you haven't, you are still ahead of me

You misunderstand, I'm not a hologrinder. I've mastered 3 professions, none of them holos as far as I know.


The thing is that I unlocked my glowiness 3 days before the patch, yet people with a similarily low amount of professions who got glowy AFTER patch 10 went live are getting visits while I'm still waiting around like an idiot! That's what I mean by least deserving. As somebody who glowed earlier, I should have priority over people who started out surging or lower.

Definately looks like either they changed the grouping or it doesn't work. People that never touched a holo are getting visited before patch 9 unlockers.

Ok, so to clarify, I still need to find my "hidden master" slots (8 of em) then I can "possibly" have to await my slot into a group, THEN I may get a visit from some old man?


Please god tell me this ain't so, it just makes it harder to become a jedi then before and there will still be prof grinders galore...

Hehe...I logged on this morning after server up, then promptly went to sleep after placing my character in the middle of correlia, nowhere near any city. I hoped when I woke up for work 2 hours later he would of visited me, but no dice.

Maybe tomorrow I will leave myself logged in for the 12 hours I am at work...

But, I've done all the POIs and have enough other badges to be "one with the force", so I qualify under the new system.


Well, which is it?






To be clear:


Lets say Player A has completed 32 professions before publish 10.


Player B has met all the requirements of the new path before publish 10.




Both player A and player B are eligible for visits by the old man







THIS COULD NOT HAVE BEEN SAID BEFORE PUB 10 I GUESS????? I got glowy after one badge during pub 10 (patch day) with a badge (ruined temple) I thought I had (done missions) but didn't have after all. So I go from immediate visit to group 3 (probably). Excuse my language, but what a moronic system is that???
I had been waiting for ages for this publish. And now I can wait even longer, just because some person (=thunderhart) couldn't deliver this info BEFORE pub 10.
Do your job right please?
I have played this game for over a year, and this is the first time I'm so upset. I had refused to do the grinding, and now I'm punished for that. Punished because I DO NOT GET ANY INFO FROM THE GUYS WHOM I (along with others) PAY!

I wouldn't worry too much about that, Blunderheart lied about that too. People who have met the reqs AFTER the patch are getting visits while I who got it before have not.
