hello


admittedly, I had some reservations with this publish, and reading some of the reactions even before logging in, I thought it was not as good as it could be.


but I have seen the result to be very efficient, admittedly. bike dismountings no longer warp... whe.. this was so annoying, when I was trying to break my own record of credit grinding... and the infinite inventories removed from plantary map... definitely an improvement, and I expect lessweight on servers, which is a lot more important for game than most of us think. I have not forgotten the infamous dantolag...


(though if various buildings do load only when people pass near, I wonder if vendors truly make this much of an impact... ach well)


but I like merchant update because it does allow merchant to be an occupation.


group member & location direction tabs corrected... very good & useful, once again, I can easily find the jedi I am grouped with if I am a bh... seriously, ı would like two options to be added to groups, one is mission reward sharing option that can be turned on & off with a vote of majority, with default setting being on, and if two people would form group, turn it off, and more people join... or members change... an it resets or enables to be re-voted... imho...

second option is "anonymous group member or anonymous group location"

maybe these options would be placed under the squad leader tree... or perhaps to form groups more than 10 you need to have specific SL skills...


but, I truly wonder if that npc clean up thing spawns an increased number of npc's at certain locations? for example mos eisley is over crowded lately... I can see only seas of white...


two cents

Tremorlaine, I have never been able to buff people who are LD. It has always given me a message that I am unable to see that person.


Great news I know, there IS a bug that wasn't caused by Publish 10! /endsarcasm

I was able to do it as of about a week ago. I was using my Jedi who is a Master Doc to buff my main char. It wasn't until today that it wouldn't let me do it.

SO! No visits to the pre-10 unlockers...old min visits Post-10 unlockers.


WHERE THE HELL IS OUT VISITS! WE ARE SUPPOSED TO BE FIRST! WE WANT ANSWERS!

MORBO DEMANDS AN ANSWER!


Yes I'm one of the many pissed of pre-10 unlockers waiting for his visit that is supposed to happen before post-10 unlockers..I'm on day 2 waiting..I'm on when server goes down and up..so what the hell is going on.


Someone get the damn dev back on here to answer us..so far everything he said has been totally reverse of what is going on.


And how come day 1 the old man never showed up? but he started showing up after todays server reboot? Why? Cause they didn't put it in, now they did and they did it half-arsed.





AWOOOOO!

Same here and I have to say there is something wrong when peeps who did want jedi finally unlocked and are faced with this mess. No Im not a post 9 unlocker, no I do not have a Jedi, and no I have not had a visit already.


What is disturbing is that peeps who justt started the game are glowy and getting visits before Post 9 unlockers and vets with badges they acqiured throughout their time in the game not all in 2 days etc.


At this point, it looks like you have better luck if you delete your toon, make a new one go visit the key poi's etc get glowy and get your visit. Sad.

exactly,this is a very disapointing publish to say the least,and and from where im sitting it doesnt seem to be getting any better. i just watched 2 people that have been on here less then 5 months get there visits and did under 15 proff,so i guess like every thing else the devs have posted we aboutthis publish is just more lies andand misleading information.


maybe the devs should have been laywers cause they know how to give information but yet withno answers!

Known Issues???? Is that all you have????? Let me begin.........


Can't craft, store vehicles correctly, harvest resources like hide or bone, loot corpses, buy tickets anywhere for shuttle or starport, make payments to a house, get a mission, pay to my vendors, get on a shuttle or starport ship, make payments to a harvestor, tip and did I mention CRAFT?!?!?! This is what I do. I'm losing $$$ and cant play the game. Just get the crafting working and at least I could function. TC said what??? A joke devs, your performance a joke! But I'm not laughing. You wonder why we flame. Its because you prevent us from being able TO PLAY THE GAME THAT WE PAY YOU FOR! I expect bugs and changes. I do not expect the basic functions of the game to stop working for this long!!!!!!!!

This is going to get buried, but I'll try anyway...I got my old man visit and such, but my quest journal is completly empty. I've read that I should have atleast one completed entry for getting the visit. Is my journal bugged?

Latsric


Well im sorry you got that too but i thought i was the only one. When i first got the old man to vist.. i got crystal and examined my journal to see on the leftsidethe ACTIVATED quest and then on right it had the completed quest that i talked to him the first time. I decided to take a print screen of the old man and me as each time he walked by me after that he would say the whole "Grakate I have ..." Line again like he was coming to me for the first time. So i hit talk and he says go away and its tells me he runs off and he despawns. Then to my surprise.. i look at my new fancy crystal to check out the completed quest i did and sure enough my journal is empty. Im thinking okay its a bug so i relog and i still have the crystal, but there is not oneentry in this journal. So im thinking now okay how can the sith come to me if i dont have the activated quest in it anymore. Im pretty sure the next completed mission or quest after visit old man is going to be the sith one but again if i dont have anything in my journal.. whats going to happen now.. is the sith giong to visit me or am i going to spend weeks to find out that i cant have the old man come again as i allready have the crystal but also i cant move forward to have sith come as i dont have the quest activated and started in my journel?

Congrats to the devs on Pub10, the latest affirmation of their total incompetance and symbolic badge of their unwillingness to test things throughly before griefing the entire SWG community by releasing yet another barely-qualfies-as-beta-material patch on live servers. My only joy is watching an entire community flame you over and over again. I know you all make a sport out of ignoring valid criticism, but I figure even a few of these will likely manage to seep into your insular White Ivory Tower of Ignorance that you call home.

If you were glowy when you logged on yesterday, you will get a visit from the old man just like the hologrinders (within 1-3 days) I am on bria and only mastered 5 professions, none were from holos. I got a visit from the old man about 10 seconds afteri logged on today.

I just wanted to note something here. This is in regards to the second slot.


After todays patch those who have been unlocked since pre pub 9 received a 2nd slot that is force sensitive. Now with pub 10 out they now recieve a 2nd force sensitive slot in there main characters which equates to 2 jedi.





I just wanted to let you know that you are very, very wrong in your statement. The main character of the pre-publish 9 jedi (who is not the jedi) DOES NOT AUTOMATICALLY BECOME FS!!!!


Many of the mains 'barely' sense the force or have only a 'faint' sense of the force and all the jedi have no connection or barely sense the force.


The mains (pre-pub 9) will have to do the quests the same as everyone else, so stop your whining and complaining based on total misinformation.


And don't believe anything you hear and only half of what you see.

The following is something very important to me as a member of the SWG community:


My main character is a master politician, mayor of a 95+ citizen player city. He is also a master armorsmith/merchant, with a large customer-base, and a "name" if you will. He is "glowie" and will progress through the jedi quests quikly, considering he has done many professions. The problem is, when he becomes FS, there's no possibilty for him to go completely jedi, without SEVERELY disrupting the play of all the citizens who are going to have to go through the hassle of electing a new mayor, and me having to regrind master AS and master Merchant, tell hundreds of customersand loyal citizensabout the change.


Now I understand that I am a minority, but I'm sure there's hundreds of Mayors andwell-knowncrafters that are going to get the shaft in this fashion. Theywill notbe able to go jedi, even though they havedone nothing but served the community. How could you tell these players to just go through thishugetrouble just to have a jedi and keep their character the way it is?


So, I was wondering ifthe devs wouldgive the "unlocked character" FS status. Otherwise, I am bound to never be jedi. I simply CANNOT change my main character. And the thousands of hours of play were for naught.



Your loyal customer,

Master Politician, AS, Merchant
