Its been said before but i say it again


(and i have a small addon )


"You try to hit a slinking voritor hunter but him evades"


I noticed this right when i started playing and have been annoyed about it ever since =D (yes i am oogling the combat window too much O_o)


First of all its grammatically horrible, and even if it was correct it should still be "it" instead of "he" =)

I've been slightly annoyed when using my pistol and the combat reading that I "swing at.." I'm not swinging I'm shooting!

On the overhead map, the 2nd cantina in the Toshe Station area of Ancorhead is listed as "Cantina - anchorhead_toshe_station_1"


The popup description for the Pistoleer skill "Point Blank Single 2" Reads:
"/pointblancksingle2 : This ranged attack can be performed at point blank range without suffering a penlty to Hit. This move is more damaging then Point Blank Single 2."


-hint: Is this skill really more powerfull then itself?


Same problem with the description of the Pistoleer skill "Pistol Melee Defense 2". It says it is more powerfull then itself.

When you are putting an item on sale and edit the asking price the DELETE button doesn't work the first time you press it - you always have to press it twice.

it'd beless irritating - as well as the misspell of scallywag, (i think)- if there were a THE in between "from" and "corpse" in above thread. (see how irritating it is?)






heh I just looked it up because I thought it was scalliwag.

most annoying bug...easy...


VEHICLES DISAPPEAR!!!


Vehicles are AMAZING...they go at incredible speeds and really help when doing missions and such...but what good is getting out to the middle of nowhere super fast if my bike disappears and i have to run all the way back?? I believe that they disappear as a fix for the clutter in the cities...but the clutter of vehicles was MUCH better than wasteing half an hour running to my mission terminal...almost worth it to get novice scout just to make a camp to get home...

Several titles for the 4th tier Bounty Hunter and Commando seem to be in the wrong column.

Onelittle peeve I have is when I target an enemy with a particularly long name or tittle, it obscures the distance meter next to the name. When this happens I can't tell how far away I am from the target, unless I know what the range modifier is on my weapon and am able to determine my distance from the target in a rough manner, using the target reticule.

On an unrelated topic I have noticed on most planets with a moon, the stars appear in front of the moon. Unless you would have me believe these are just satelites........many, many satelites.

One more unrelatedtopic; while ridinga speeder or mountover a body of water, the swimming icon appears next to my name.

Well there are a few to speak of the most annoying for me are the ones that do not take gender into consideration. Be it titles like Marksman, Hunter, Rifleman, Explorer (okay Explorer isn't so bad), etc of quests that do not check the gender of the player doing the quest. For example many of the Jabba quests and Nym quests as well as the Rebel quests. Another annoyance for me is the master dancer and or musician bug where when buffing you see get a message that says you have focused on %TT instead of what %TT equals.
