My main 2 beefs are the delays:


The Weapon delay severely nerfs multi-weapon professions. I was told that after a weapon had been used for a time you could switch with no delay yet when testing last night I killed all the imps witn my pistol and then switched to my LLC to kill base and got delay on LLC specials. This NEEDS to be removed. No one is happy with it.


The Armor delay has made putting on armor tedious. The best solution was to make it so Jedi couldn't wear any armor and this would have ONLY affected them and not have screwed up the game for everyone else like it has now. When using my macro that I made to make putting on or off armor easier it feels like I am moving through molasses. Something so simple to do should not be made tedious and seem like a chore.


BOTH these items were to prevent Jedi from exploiting. Maybe you should have done something like make it so Jedi can't exploit rather than making it so thay can't exploit at the expense of everyone elses enjoyment of the game.

Issue: Jedi heals not working properly

Server: Bloodfin

Planet: Dathomir


Location (x,y): Anywhere



Your profession: Jedi



Instructionson how to recreate the bug:


/curepoison, /healself, /stopbleeding must be targetting self by hitting cntrl 1 or creating macro for this to do the action, this was noticed yesterday and it appears the /healselfhealth is now working as pre publish 9, /stopbleeding is not, havent checked the others yet. But I just got this message :


"Speederbilke Swoop is no longer bleeding"



Proof theres a problem, heh.

Hey i want to train mundane skills on my jedi. But every trainer only trains me force skills. While that is handy every three or four days, it would be nice to be able to train other skills until then. Please make it so we can do this. I really want to pick up scout now that i can't afford to keep fencer (and lvl 4 1h isn't worth keeping).



THROW Me a bone here





-----------------------------------------------

I will be playing DDO and BF2:SF.
/salute Bria and so long.

Serious problem going on right now from the patch I assume. All emails have been deleted and no tells, bank tips, email, or any chat other than spatial is working. Obviously this is a super critical problem.

Great going. Yeah. I remember there were lot's of Jedis in A New Hope, Empire Strikes Back, and Return of the Jedi. They all went around openly without fear of challedge or death by the Empire. Oh wait, there were only Ben, Vader, the Emperor, and then Luke as Jedi weren't there. Hmmm. Maybe you should really rethink this Jedi System you wanted in the game or change the Era of the Timeline. Jedi PC's have NO PLACE IN THIS GAME! I know you've heard it before, and will continue to hear it again. My hope is eventually someone up top is gonna say 'You know, we really made a mistake allowing Jedi in this game. Do we really want the majority of the players to be Jedi in a supposedly Jedi Free Era with a few exceptions? Let's pull Jedi out and create a new game for them set in the Old Republic Era.' That would work for a lot of us players down here in the gameworld you guys are so detached from. And keep us from quitting this game. I no my $16/month means little to you, but oh well. If this game doesn't improve soon not even JTL will save this game.


Ok, on some errors.


Naritus server.


Tried to make stims with my Wpn/Drd/Gnrc toolafter publish 9. It only shows Misc and Wpn. Intentional? Probably. Well if it is ok, but if not then hope its fixed soon.


Heard Hermit Mission bugged. Nice. Makes me happy. Not so for the future Jedi.


well that's all I got because I got tired of seeing open Jedi everywhere I went. We need another Imperial Crackdown. Bring on Vader and Boba Fett to deal with them, as well as PC Bounty Hunters.


Which brings me to a question, If everone is going to be a Jedi, because in order to compete on an equal level with them you need to be now, will we all end up on the Bounty Hunter Mission Terminals? If so maybe I'll go Bounty Hunter. That way I can hunt Jedi. Maybe there is hope in this game yet. But they don't have perma death anymore do they? Hmmm.


Oh well. Guess I'll start shopping for another MMORPG.

I'm not sure if this is a direct product of the new pulish, but since ithappened off and on yesterday, and full time today I figured I'd post it. I'm not here to down anyone, I feel that the developers and programmers are doing their job to the best of their ability. You've produced a great game, keep up the good work.


Issue: Guild chat, tells non functional

Server: Scylla

Planet: Tatooine


Location (x,y): n/a (everywhere I tried and my guildmates too)


Your profession: TKA, CH, Medic


Instructions on how to recreate the bug: try using guild chat or tells

Thanks for screwing the BH community over again and making the game unstarwarsy with so many Jedi out in the open. Sometimes I wonder why I even pay to play this game anymore.

The jedi were there before the patch, instead of wearing composite armor they are wearing Jedi robes noobie. Now, I find it disturbing as a citizen of the Empire that these deviants are running loose. I can only hope there is a beefing up of the BH system.


Not everyone is a Gun Bunnie. I currently see less skill in PvP and more creative macro'ing. Maybe having a delay to your weapon and armor will make you think more strategically. Also, now that macroing multiweapon specials has been tamped downit will make it harder to solo, for which the tiniestviolinI own is playing just for you. God forbid you might have to go hunting with a partner or 2 on this massive multiplayer online game. Perish the thought that you might be expected to interact with other thinkingbeings.

Yeah, I switched a few commands tied to function keys, and had the old actions return several hours later after successfully using the function keys for several hours with the new actions. The icons didn't change, but the old actions returned. Re-changing the actions again seemed to work.


The effluent has really hit the circulator. They may have to bring the servers down and re-impliment all this.

I'm almost certain the only coding Thunderheart can do is basic web-site stuff. He's not a coder. He came up from the fan community. His MIA status is not becasue he's pitching in with coding patches. He doesn't have those skills.
