Ok I have an idea (who doesn't)


If you want to play Starwars with no Jedi then you sign up for normal account like we do now.


If you want to play Jedi you sign up for jedi account which is normal account plus force slot for the ability to play 2 characters per server but the account costs you twice as much for subscription.


Eh?

all i want to know is 2 things.
1. What group am i in(have mastered 5 professions and am glowing)
2. also which ever group i am in how long will i probally have to wait to get into the village
ps... by the way i have already canceled 2 of my 3 accounts





Here is the rundown

SO:
1) If you logged in between the hours of 3:01 - 3:02, and your middle initial starts with an A, and your birth date is sometime before January but not counting a leap year, and if you have visited area 51a(which is somewhere by area 51c) you are in group-A

2) If you unlocked 48 secret boxes, did 120 badges before the month of April, own snow shoes, drink Coke, and like to watch the republican convention, and embrace passionate conservatism--->but still don't really understand what it means. You are in-group-A too

3) If you have info on the location of Osma, traveled to Lok in the last 3 months, found the foutain of youth, well this one really doesn't count because no ones in group-B, thats still alive as far as we know.

4) If you wrote over a hundred life threating e-mail and bomb threats to thunderheart, jumped the train tracks in the General Lee, and stopped to pick up the chick with large knockers. You are in group-C

5) Did nothing and mastered no professions. You are automatically granted a Jedi knight!

congrats, and may the force be with you!

After 2 days of trying to understand this mess, I finally get it


Here is what I believe and others are starting to figure out:


If you were NOT a hologrinder and only stuck with 1 or 2 professions your gaming-life, and yesterday you logged in to find yourself glowing, then you are good to go. You can expect a visit from the Old Man anyday now, so don't stress. As for the post Publish 9 jedi unlockers, they are sending the Old Man to you also, so don't stress out either. As for the Hologrinders, well, you kinda get screwed and you kinda don't. You will not be recieving an auto-visit from the Old Man until traffic dies down, however, by the time you get to the villiage and get your conversion, you will be farther along than all the others most likely. So you kinda are in good shape, but you kinda aren't.


Secondly, I've been told that a trick to getting the Old Man to see you is log in, then log out for 30 minutes. After logging back in and around 15 minutes of waiting, he should appear. I'm not sure if this method works, but some have told me it has for them.


Those are my opinions, so take them or leave them.

Yay! I seriously don't see what everyone is whining about. I'm overjoyed at the changes. And a gated system for the village on it's initial release shows improved foresight and planning, as opposed to some other releases in the past. Finding a balance between the angst-ridden keyboard jockeys who want a jedi NOW!, and making sure that everyone who partakes in the new jedi system has an enjoyable and fair experience isn't an easy thing to do, and I am satisfied with the comprimise.
So to re-iterate, "Thank you Devs". I plan on enjoying my Jedi experience when ever the old man gets around to me, but until then I've got the same game I had yesterday, which I was enjoying very much. And I will continue to do so for quite some time.






/agree
And I hope eveyone thretening to cancel their accounts does so we have that many less cry babies to listen to.

Let the flames begin.

God, sycophants make me sick. These devs can do no wrong in your eyes can they? Hey, they put out a bugged old man in an unfair system that everybody wants to be a part of because, well, they ignore everything that doesn't have Jedi in it's name. But hey it's okay, good job devs.

SO , your saying that, after I complete everyhting to be visited by the old man, your going to make me WAIT to play MY GAME, why don't you monkeys do your job and make the server larger? hows that sound? Get off your butt, and do something productive, I can't believe your making people wait this long for thiscrap, why don't you compensate people that have stuck around this long with a free month subscribtion or something, that would be a start. .. Maybe you could show that you actually care about your customers by giving them something in return for their money? There are so many people that have waited for this game to be FINISHED, and when I say finished, i mean patches without bugs, proper customer service yada yada yada, reward these people with something tangable. . . Don't just give us a patch and expect us to sit quiet when stuff STILL DOESNT" WORK properly. Not to be rude, but i think i know about 100 people that have been screwed by SOE so manyt imes they DESERVE a free month play. . .


thanks
