When you send an email, the email box still gets stuck and you have to hit cancel like 50 times before the window will go away. This has been around since launch.


Not quite a bug...but...


If your computer doesn't quite meet the specs for this game, you get an annoying "This game may not be stable on this computer window" After a year, I get the message. Can we please get a "do not show this window again" check box?

It prevents me from auto-loading the game because it stops on load EVERY time.

Ok 3 items that I noticed so far,

1. Everytime I start the game it goes into full scan mode which takes like 10 minutes to complete not a good thing especially when you have 2 characters that you want to switch between.

2. The dismount speeder issue has gotten better but still exsists. ( when you dismount bike you are warped away from it ) not as bad as before but still exsists.

3. I disasemled a saber and it said the components were sucsessfully disasembled but they arent in my inventory now...

yes I had plenty of space 15 open slots. I'm hoping when I log in the Items will be there today

Oh another thing maint on some harvestors went bad too i had one that had over 10000 credits before patch on monday and after aptch said -5000 . a definate problem there .

Also the kits are great but after searching all kinds of mobs for 2 hours not a single component was found to make the loot item. the drop rate needs to be increased alot more .

My jedi robe offers no protection, it should be comparable to 65% composite atleast, if not get rid of them and let us wear our armor. Also maybe you could let jedi wear PSG's?


Also how about letting us pick between black or white for our robes?






Umm, tell me, Why should our Jedi Robes Be Comparible to Composite Armor? Are you not aware that the Jedi Defence Tree is what gives us protection? Jedi Toughness and Lightsaber Toughness are the 2 things you should be looking at.


Defence is not broken. 0/0/0/X Gives you State Protection, while other limbs give you other areas of protection.


And the Dev's Stated that the Color of the Robes are Showing your Rank. White is for Padawan, and when you get into the Knight line, you will get different colors to show your Rank up the tree. they are not giving us the ability to change the color so we dont Misrepresent ourselfs in the Ranks.

OK, on this weapon/armor equip issue, I've got some thoughts.


Since the reason for this is the usual suspects: powergaming Jedi scum, I suggest that the devs put some code in to flag all Jedi accounts,and track if they remove armor, use force powers, and then redon armor.


The penalties for performing this action, which is clearly an exploit devised to get around the "no armor on Jedi scum" rules, would be as follows:


First offense: loss of all accumlated Jedi XP, and the loss of the the highest skill box obained. If there is more than one "highest level" box, the one that grants a combat benefit is the one that goes.


Second offense: Permadeath of the Jedi character, with no compensation whatever for the player.


Third offense: Player is banned permanently from the game.

Issue: Survey Devices highlighted in Red. If these items do indeed have a condition value associated with them, then that needs to appear in the Examine window. Same with Ubese Shirts, belts, bandoliers. If 0 condition items are going to be unusable in future patches, you need to get this nailed down so it is applied appropriately and we get proper warning ahead of time. This was reported many times on TC.

issue: force crystals


i looted 18 force crystals today (no joke). i understandone of thepurposes of the publish was to upgrade jedi, but do you have to completely ruin the ingame economy? (i think you guys went a little overboard with this one...lol)







At times I can't understand some of you jedi out there. I'm a Jedi and I like the Crystal Spawn.


1. Color Crystals Degrade, so, having the Ability to go out and kill monsters and get a Crystal in less then50 or less and I like it that way. Old System, You had to kill over 500 NPC's to get a Crystal if you were lucky.


2. Power Crystals are harder to get. But they are still there.Power is determind by the skill you have Lightsaber and the level of monster you killed for the power Crystal.


3. INGAME ECONOMY.... Is already screwed up by the greed of others. Live with it and dont blame Jedi.

After the publish i have to say thnx devs for puttting the **edit**ing armor and weapon equip delay. How do you want us to PvP now.







Umm, Try PvPing with armor on to begin with. if you are Overt, Try wearing your Armor all the time. If you are Covert... Well, If you plan on killing NPC's of the opposite Faction, then put your armor on.


I feel this new system will teach people who take Advantage of the PvPing system a lesson. I can't wait until the Combat Revamp is finished to hear all the whinners whine some more.

My issues:


Equiping/unequiping armor takes too long...


Switching weapons in combat isnt possible the same way as before.. (This one is BAD BAD BAD)


With the new patch I just say welcome to the next Jedi Knight game.. New stuff for jedis and making many things worse for everyone else.



Does SOE want everyone to become jedi?? Do they want every jedi to run around showing off their saber?? Do they want jedis running everywhere??? This is not the Star Wars world that I like

If jedis keep getting so much attention while the rest of us have to suffer, im soon out of here. I know the proclaimer sais they can change the game whenever they want, but never thought they would change it to a whole new jedi game... Well Im still a happy player, but I hope the non-jedis still are able to stay around... But im not sure if thats gonna happen.





I am Guessing you dont have a Jedi so you complain about the Jedi.


1. Jedi were the Step-children of the game, Just like Smugglers.


2. The Old Jedi System was basically Clone Jedi running around.


3. Majority of the people in this game want to Be a Jedi. They got Starwars Galaxies just for the Sole Purpose to become a Jedi. I did and I used the force to unlock my slow.


Force Characters are an Option and not something to ruin the game. You can be force Sensitive after Publish #10 and still not be a Jedi. You dont have to go Jedi but to say have the Ability to Repair Items without much penalty (*I'll have to test this out*). or to get a little better control over your VEhical (*I find it comes out faster in towns*)


Give it a chance. when your main profession gets the revamp, you will be a happy person, Neutral, or sad.

Um I would venture to guess that a larger majority of people grew up watching star wars and thought the idea of being in a star wars game offered the opportunity to play something that you grew up watching. A large majority of people would like to see the game stick with the story line of the time in which it is placed where jedi are rare. I for 1 have never hologrinded and never even attempted to do 1 holo profession even though my first would have been one of the easiest.
