If you finished your badges and "should have gotten glowy" after patch 24, then old man will not visit.

If you got them before patch 24, you're fine.

I just wanted to report my loss of glowy. I went from you have a surge of the force to a strong sense of the force after I finished my last badge. I have gorath, imp theme park, 10 mastered proffesions, arena champion, the Necrosis, and Nyms.

Im quiting and FUUCK SOE

Is the bug just a display bug showing us that we aren't glowy and instead strong? Or is it actually a bug since I never reached glowy pre-patch 24 do I have to wait around for a fix? This should be SOE's top priority right now considering at least 50% of the people that play this game play it to get a Jedi one day

what does it means when there is a MAJOR bug with no ETA for a fix? more than likely it wasn't a mistake. just like when the BH missions were "buged" all of a sudden when jedi were letting their bh buddies kill themover and over to get ton of credits. I still can't beleave they spent time working on a expansion when you can't spend 5 min playing this game without running into somthing that is flawed in one way or another!! countless things need fixedlets release a expansion and screw thing up even more... thx guys.

I wish I had better news, butyou will not get a visit from the old man until they fix this bug. I finally met all the requirements and then some last Saturday (after Pub 24 went in) and I should have been glowy but am Strong. I have not seen the old man in 6 days.

I am glad I came to check the forums and see what was going on. My main character on Bria has been Force Sensitive for months, but I liked him the way he was so I made another character on Naritus to be my "Jedi" a few weeks ago. He should have been fs a while back. I just figured I was missing some badge and have been grabbing them like crazy for the past couple days trying to figure out which one I didn't have. Now after managing to acquire at least nine content badges and countless others, I find out it was because its bugged, not because I was missing something. Oh well, at least now I know.

Sort of Good News everybody

Confirmed as a bug and they are working on a fix. No ETA yet but it is a queued.

Well, at least we know it isnt some stealth change. cheers

Yeah just like pearls and the FRS. Good luck with that. In 6 months they'll finally own up to doing it on purpose. hehe.

Maybe it has to do with this rumor...

http://forums.station.sony.com/swg/board/message?board.id=jedi&message.id=1309910

Members of the Jedi Community and all SWG players.

I know this post may get flamed, but it is only expected. There have been many rumors around the forums, but my source is a bit more than a rumor. I have been a member of the Jedi Community for a long while, and a member of SWG since the beginning. What I am about to disclose to you is top secret SOE stuff so to speak.

I have a friend whose uncle is a SOE employee. (I would give his name here, but I was advised not to because I do not wish to jepordize that individuals job. Anyways, I told my friend to ask his Uncle "What is going on with jedi recently, and why all the nerfing and changes?" He did, indeed ask him, and the response was shocking. I cancelled my account immediately after hearing this. I am not advising you to do this, but since the SWG Community Relations, and Devs will not answer all of these issues, I felt obligated to inform the community of my disturbing findings.
Here we go........

1.- Jedi are being phased into a regular profession, that will be selectable from the beginning of the game. This is the reason so many nerfs appear to be hitting jedi recently. They are attempting to slowly transition jedi into a normal class. They have not and will not inform the community about this, because it will enrage the vets. But they are hoping to keep everyone quiet while they work on this. They are also counting on the fact that more and more players will be influenced to buy the game, if jedi are immediately selectable. The bottom line is their numbers show that more players have quit the game because they were lazy and didnt want to work for jedi, as opposed to players who complain about jedi, but will not quit. They are hoping that subscription rates will soar if Jedi are immediately selectable, because jedi is the reason most players buy this game. This is also the reason why pearls/ FRS have been removed, so that vets will slowly become accustomed to being converted, and hopefully stay with the game.

2.- All melee classes are being removed. The bottom line is that SOE feels that melee professions do not appear in the movies, and they will remove them from the game. The current status of Ranged professions being dominate is all in their grand scheme of things. They are hoping that most melee players will switch their templates to Ranged now, so that when they eliminate all melee, there wont be enough of them left to cause an uproar. Therfore everyone in game will be A.- A jedi B.- Ranged C.- Crafter, Entertainer, or other. All remaining melee players will be given a respec period.

3.- All grinding is going to be removed. All leveling will soon be quest based and not grinding. Example: You will need to run to a trainer, get missions from him, he will teach you a skill box, back to step one. They are hoping that this will keep the playerbase more nethralled with the game, and get the quest based system they have always wanted.

Now the reason this may all seem far fetched to you, is because so many people on these forums cry wolf, and start rumors. but I assure you, this is the reason we dont get the responses we are looking for. Alot of people complained about the CU, but once they played it, they became adjusted and despite their complaints they still stayed subscribed. If they announced all this now, it would cause mass mahem and anger, so they will keep it quiet until it goes live, and then we are stuck with a "Like it or leave it" option. And the bottom line is (it has been proven) we will still play it.
Also, cancelled jedi accounts are a given in this, but look at it from the outside, ALOT of new players will also spawn out of this mess, because jedi will be made readily available to them.

I did not get any info on the Jedi vs. BH situation, or other important issues, but they did make it clear that there will be no more alpha classes in this game. Also do not shoot the OP, or myself. He is a messenger for me (since my account was banned) and I am a messenger from another, and I simply feel obligated to inform you all.

So if you flame me, that is fine. I am not a troll nor a rumor starter, and it is your choice alone on what you want to believe. I am simply warning you all that this will come to pass.

well i pray that is not true...

anyways, according to the guides i shoulda just unlocked glowy, but instead changed to strong like everyone else has been doing. This is annoying. I was excited to finish my last badge, only to find that nothing happened. WTFWTWFWTWFWTFW N00|3 |>|20G|2A/\/\ /\/\ 3|2 z....

You'd think with a large bug like this that affects so much of the gameplay, it would be moved near the top of the priority list. All i know is if the rumor above is true, which it probly isnt since it is just a rumor, SWG will lose a large portion of its fanbase. I just don't think its very fair to the longterm players, which doesnt make since because it is these players that Sony should form the game around.
