TH was pretty clear in an earlier post that prebadge masteries were being correctly accounted for.
In the combinatorics thread that's now active, only one player has reported FS branch credit that is inconsistent with correct accounting of pre-badge masteries. But his experience (zero credit for a pre-10 unlocker) inconsistent with everything else about the FS credit system, too. So there's not yet any evidence that pre-badge masteries (specifically) are bugged. If that turns out to be false, we'll probably find out in a day or two. There are a couple of ways in which it could have happened. I can't "Use The Source, Luke", so I have no idea whether it did/didn't get coded/tested that way. Let's keep an eye on the box over the weekend and see if anything else slithers out.
(BTW, your choice of metaphor is perfect. The hologrind, during which "maybe your next one will unlock", is a perfect example of why Hope - the last thing in the box - was arguably the most horrible evil that Pandora could have unleashed upon humanity

I do not know if this is "working as intended" or an oversight however....
Upon doing the new FS quest series;
One may only begin to unlock certain branches on Lowca. You can talk to the medic (for persuasion),fighters (for most all combat reflex stuff), and the gent for Crafting.
However not all branches appear to be able to start each cycle. point in fact I went to attempt to start the collection survey line or the "luck" line and it is not possible.
so now the wait isnt 4 weeks per line..but possibly 4 times that should you desier a specific branch.
if its working as intended...I do not agree with that philosophy. If it happens to be an oversight/bug this is to let you know what I have tryed.
Its probably "working as intended" and gates those who do not possess the skills from progressing along. Point in fact in 1 day two max i can master medic and do what is avaliable or wait yet another complete cycle of 4 weeks to do the one in that line that i really want.
I am not amused.

For my char everything with FS quests looks fine , BUT ,if i am right there is need to make 6 phases to become jedi initiate(or padawan this doesnt matter) and if every phase will last 3 weeks it will be 4,5-5 moths . This is far tooooooooooooooo long. Older way was much shorter, and new looks THIS SAME cos u are grinding now xp for conversion to force-ses xp instead of grinding professions so this is old way of becoming jedi with minimum time limit. I STRONGLY ADWISE to lower phase time to 1-1,5 week so we can make jedi in 2 moths, and only problem will be xp grinding but this is better than w8ing for new phase. I hope any1 have read this loooong reply

Glad to see drop shadows fixed, that was really bugging me. I still wish we could call pets and troids from the toolbar the same as vehicles

Let me explain this again.
We do acknowledge and address things that are reported for test center. Just because you see them re-appear on live only means its a new and/or different instance of the bug. Database differences create changes from server to server that can cause things to reappear - - and we address them as quickly as possible. As always, we apologize for the inconvenience and we'll work to repair them as quickly as possible.
I believe by "acknowledge" he means that you actually tell the community that you see the bug, not just internal acknowedgment. I think this bug was still seen on TC the day before the patch went live (I'm not sure). In that case, communication that you are aware of the bug would be very helpful. If it did suddenly resurface after players had reported it fixed, then we definately can't fault you for that.

TH, thanks for keeping us abreast of the bugs, etc you are sorting out. Please just acknowledge that you are aware of the sith camp not spawning bug? I understand it was an issue on TC and its repeating itself on quite a few servers. I am on Eclipse if that makes a difference.
This has stonewalled me getting into the village and has been broken since the morning after Pub10 was released. I am rather frustrated by it. Thanks

The heal bug dosn't happen just because you use havla. I am a master doc and i cant heal, that includes stims(all), state packs, and first aid. This problem goes away after you log off for a while but i have been playing for hours today and i could heal fine until I used first aid. The second I used it, it healed my bleeding then I couldnt heal myself... It may however be caused when the havla wears off. Do you have any idea how frustrating it is being a Master Doctor who cant heal! Why dont I just throw away my 140 skill points. And then I read this forum and find out its 5 days before this problem gets fixed! Imo the customers who are putting up with all the serious flaws in this game should be compensated in some way, before you loose us all. Looking at the problems people are having with jedi would be evern more frustrating, I couldnt stand it.
