Thread: Jedi Testing for P9...
amen....I started a Nov Artisan last Thurs to play with DE for awhile on TC...now, being a Jedi is the last thing I want, so my only concern is, will our TC toon's prof skills get wiped when they copy TC to TC2? Takes a long time to go up in Artisan skills...be a bummer if I lost all that work and started asa Padawan with no armor/no weapons/650 credits, LOL.
The Mos Eisly starport was a-buzz with Jedi wannabe's today, bragging and sneering at us Novices. I needed trained in Survey 1 and, thankfully, "Mekka" stopped by to train me. Thanks, Mekka, for taking the time out of your Expert Weaponsmithing to train a new toon. I'm an old crusty from July - I always train for free, even tho I capped AP 6 months ago with my MBH on Ahazi.

Your character on TC won't be touched. It'll just be copied over to TC2 and your TC character will be as it was and you can continue to level it as you wish.
Well, guys... we must accept that we lost this time...
I have 2 chars there, i did it to test vehicles... i checked, test it and publish my opinions...
I reinstalled all my comp soft, and download again all the patchs in my live server tooks 8 hours (dial up), i thought twice to download all the patchs of TC...
As many as you, i would like to be in TC to test many new stuff... but with a job, a life, and a char in Naritus i did not have enough time to play 2 chars...
But finally, Devs are wise about what they planned... if he loads all the chars of TC, really, TC2 would be crowed... in my humble opinion...
Anyway, "there are always more time than life"... if i can not get in TC2, i will wait for the pub 10 
Note: Yesterday i finished to download the patchs of TC (took 2 days at nights), and it was sad that Coronet was a desert city... really strange that Coronet was practically empty when in live serversare like NY or Mexico City.
My 2 pesos, and sorry for my bad english.

B-B-B-B-BULLCRAP! i think this is a crock of poop guys, seriously ive played on test center numerous times and then the two weeks i dont play test center they say if you have a character on test center you get bumped over to test center 2 to playa jedi padawan! the they go, oh wait we forgot to tell you, there was a flagging and now you've had to log in between so and so, bull crap guys, im furiated, i swear this game is a thorn in my side, but i love star wars, so i will continue to play. next time devs be clear on what you post, dont pull a whip lash on me
And what would you do to keep the numbers down? .... If they let everyone that had an account on test play a Padawan... on top of adding all the current Live Jedi ( who have actually been beta testing this profession and paying for it ) you would have a server cluster that was so maxed out that you would never get any testing done. The xp requirements for jedi are such that at Padawan level you aren't going to get alot of helpful testing info from them anyway....
Consider it a perk for being a active participant of Test Center....Many people ONLY play on Test Center, and this was a easter egg for them...they deserve it....Just because you created a toon there months ago to check out mounts or vehicles don't get all upset if they don't want you to test Jedi...
And as far as clarity from the DEV's..... It's pretty clear to me from the intial post by Just G, exactly what the requirements are...
I agree strongly with what you have just said, but if you look at it from an adverage gamer's perspective, everyones been paying the same amout of money for the same content in the game. what the devs COULD have done was to ADD more than one test server, to accomade everyone who has HAD a charcter on testcenter. I'm pretty shure with the resources they have had, they could allow this to happen.
I also strongly dissagree with all the attention on JEDI, yes i know its what defines starwars, but you have never seen the devs, adding another server for 1 single profession, dont' get me wrong i love jedi, and i like to play as one, but there are many other professions that are broken, which should be given as much attention as jedi (bh,smuggler,squad leader, and commando)
---just 2 credits added to the matence pool--
Ive played this damm game for a year now and this is the thanks us veterens recieve!!!!!!!
of course lots of people feel this way so i suppose no one caresUhhh if they did give advanced notice.. everyone from every server that didnt have a jedi would be on TC2.. it would be like firstdaylaunch x 10 all over again..
i think what they did was a good/fine idea..
stop whinign go hologrind

Sure they have... It was called Beta.... they had two.....If they were re-working any other complete profession from the ground up, and wanted to get all the bugs squashed in a two - three week time period.... Im sure any other profession would get the same attention.... what would you rather them do ? spend the next 3 months patching stuff as it comes up in live.... or get the majority of the bugs worked out so that they move forward with combat balance... GCW......Smuggler... etc.... the system has to be changed so they can move on tostop the Hologrinding .. which effects everything in the game....
It's win win for everyone.... get this done.. and move on in the quickest way possible...
