How do you become a Jedi?

Luck

Hit Alt+F4 and you'll enter HyperJedi Mode.

ummm yea what is hyper jedi mode?

hyper-jedi mode is just that, hyper-jedi mode. with force powers on par with Darth Vader, Yoda, and even the Emperor himself! just Alt+F4 in game to get it.

LOL, hell yeah its ubercool, I killed a heard of krayt dragons after using the alt+f4 trick. My god, I have never seen anything move so fast!

they're **edit**ting you. alt+f4 is like hitting crtl+alt+delete. does nothing just escapes from the program. Nobody has found out how to do it jedi style yet so, like they said its just "luck". Personally, I aint gona be jedi: no reason if you cant be dark side (which they cut from the initial release, but they might have it later....). But I did find one trick, that if you type /s it lets you saber throw 1, as long as you have a saber i guess. But hey, theres the first step to letting us know its somehow cool.

You know, I admit that I have the knee-jerk reaction to be sarcastic when I see posts like this one asking "How to Become a Jedi"...but you know what?

It actaully IS a valid question.

Think about it, this is Star Wars, and we're are *supposedly* free to make our characters into whatever we want, to create our own "saga" etc etc, or so the game box and all the game hype tells us.

I saw the SWG piece on CNN and they were pushing that you *can* be Jedi.

So, naturally, a lot of people are going to buy the game with the hope/intention of becomming one.

And Why Not? You think JK 1 & 2 sold all those copies b/c of the graphics engine? No, it was the fun of playing a Jedi that sold that game, same with the upcoming KOTOR. Jedi are an intrinsic part of SW, and to many, a *very cool* part.

There are tons of players trying to grind their way to Master Bounty Hunter, and I'm sure the fascination with the Fetts has *nothing* to do with that, right? So, likewise, there are many who want to play a Jedi, and since there is no obvious way to do it--no Jedi Skill Tree in the professions list, what are they to do but try to ask to find out how to become one? And how is the desire to play a Jedi any better or worse than wanting to be the 8millionth Artisan, or BH or Creature Handler?

Look at the BACK of your SWG box, the first bullet on the right is:

"Follow your own path...which accomodates your style of play, whether you become a bounty hunter or a dancer or a merchant or *even a Jedi*".

So, SWG is marketing Jedi as a possibility, a definite possibility, and are even slightly misleading by tieing it into the skill-based advancement, when there *is no* skill path to Jedi--you can't simply *choose* to play one, which is kinda what the bullet makes it sound like.

I don't get the point in flaming these people, most likely you, deep down, want to play one too. So why not try to figure out how to do it?

Or would you simply rather see the FS slots offered on eBay for whomever can pay for them??

It's no surprise people want to play one, given the nature/history of Star Wars, and given the hype in SWG.

I think given the number of servers, everyone should get one FS slot to use somewhere, just limit the overall Jedi population per server. Why not give people (who are paying for a game) the shot to play *what they want*? That's what SWG *claims* it's all about, so how could it hurt?

If you cite "balance", well, who cares?You really think the number of BHs and Creature Handlers is true to what would be found in a "real" SW Universe? I doubt it.

It's a GAME, it's fiction, and it should be FUN to play, given the hype surrounding Jedi,you should have the OPTION to play the *perma-death* FS char slot if you want to. And, you should be able to ask about it without being flamed to death for it...

As if anybody would tell if they knew

also if someone does figure it out, apparently that way might not work again... so good luck

"Think about it, this is Star Wars, and we're are *supposedly* free to make our characters into whatever we want, to create our own "saga" etc etc, or so the game box and all the game hype tells us."

2000 jedi walking about would make it an awful game for me. And that's how many people would be Jedi if they had the chance...

You are free to be a Jedi, if your lucky enough to get a Force Sensitive Character slot appear for your server... (first ones apparently wont happen for 4-5 months)

This game isnt about Jedi, its about the star wars universe, a galaxy set in a time when Jedi are even rarer than they used to be. Get over it, if you want to play a Jedi and guarantee you'd be one, you should've waited until Knights of the Old Republic comes out.

I ran into a Dark Jedi Master NPC on the north shores of Naboo. I was slain with one touch, had to try since the new player exempt is still running. Not sure if she still would've shown up as an enemy if I was imperial covert or overt. Would have been cool if I could've talked to her.

I truly hope there is no set way to becoming a Jedi/opening a fs slot otherwise, as already set, half the population of the galaxy would be rushing down the same path.

I also hope that when someone gets that chance that they don't spam it everywhere (for their own sake as well). Would be much better if they kept it secret until the first time they need to light up the old 'saber in combat.
