Someone said elsewhere that this "bug" is only effecting those who are on the Jedi track. Not true. I have spoken with countless people in game who are not hunting or crafting because they have capped on their XP. I know I have. 15 professions and I am capped in everything. I do not need the money and I do not get XP, so why hunt? Working towards a goal was fun for me... thus hunting was fun. Hunting just for the heck of it is just not fun.


So I took out some new players to train in hunting since I was not worrying about gaining XP. But that gets old quickly, especially when I getendless tellsby those who can still grind for XP, nagging meto dump my low level groups and join them. For the record, I have not dumped said groups to go 'save' people. Who knew Master Doctors were in such demand at this time of day? *shrugs* But just because I became a doctor does not mean it is my civic duty to go save those still hunting, especially when I get nothing of value (ie XP as I am capped and waiting to go FS) out of it.


But in all honestly, the lower level players are feeling the effects of this issue as well. Everything plays forward, or rolls downhill, and this is rolling.


And no, it's not because of Mustafar and people running to play there. Countless people who usually hunted with me are playing other games until this issue is resolved.



I am shortly off to bed... and my greatest wish is that when I wake up after the Hotfix and Server Maintenance, that this "bug" has been squashed. If that is not possible, my next wish would be for a Developer to start a thread and sticky it, giving specific answers to this issue. Because we deserve real answers.



And please, no flames telling me to go out and play the game. I did. I do. I have well over 75 badges and 15 professions mastered. Jedi is the last realm unexplored, and I want to explore and I am kicking myself for playing the game like a normal person and not a power gamer.

sorry bout that....


Here is what i want to say:


Fais has done vette to get FS.


Max has done vette, but after he got FS.


Fais did FS Pre RotW.


Max did it with Mos Eisly Quest.


BOTH DID FS WITH JABBA'S


BOTH HAVE LOST GLOWY


Ok, so maybe its just a bug in the /check command?? I mean, if it seems to not effect any chars entering village, and doesnt seem to effect old man visit, then why worry?? Unless you have some problems like not being able to accept Aurillian Quests or convert XP, then everyone should be just fine and go about their normal buisness. If you do have these probs, send in a CSR ticket and wait for a response. Being a DEV is harder than some people give them justice for. Its extreamly hard to fix every little prob that comes up in such a mammoth game. If you are so trigger happy, and just have to blame the devs for everything that goes on, perhaps you should put yourself in their shoes and realy think it through.


I believe it is just a simple programming error in the /check command, that is probably being fixed momentarly with the next hotfix.

Here's my scoop on things, and my input as to where I doubt it has to do with Jabba's palace.

I've done Jabba... Oh, no idea really, a year or so ago? And I've always been slightly glowy.

Now I decided to go all the way and started doing the few badges I was still missing. Right before I got my last important jedi PoI (that was the Ruined Temple, by the way), I was surging with the force. The moment I got that PoI, I dropped to 'strong sense'

In other words: I went *down* a step. I however already was surging (last step before glowing), even with Jabba as one of my 5 content badges.

Granted, it might still be Jabba, and granted, it might be a display/checkforce bug, but I won't know that until I get a visit from the old geezer (or not)

Splut.


ps. It's utterly retarded that it's still impossible to post messages with Firefox.

Some of us don't want yet another Jedi - we want FS crafting for experimentation, assembly and repair.

All 45 location badges


Nym's themepark


Jabba's themepark


All 4 Mos Eisley quests


Mastered: Scout, Marksman, Rifleman, Combat Medic


Was blue glowey until the publish. Now am not. Have completed FS up to the point wherein you loot the location of the village. Have yet to go, been to busy playing the game for content and grinding up an alt character. Will have to check it out and see if I can make it to the village or not.


Gorath server.

I read this thread everyday because I am also effected by it and I see a common misunderstanding from the people who are already grinding fs or jedi, they think this is no big deal and it's basically a type-o. What they don't realize is people who have not unlocked fs, who haven't been visited by the old man for the first time, they (we) are the one's who are stuck. If you didn't see the old mand and get the crystal before publish 24 then you are stuck, you won't get a visit from the old man and you cannot unlock fs. I'm sick of people saying it's no big deal or it's only a type-o. For those of us who would like to unlock fs we can't and that is a very big deal, try to imagine back to when you were about to unlock fs and you find out you couldn't and then say it's no big deal.

Let me add that I had lost glowie too. I reported above what POIs and badges I had. The new development for me is that I continued to get visits from the Old Man, even though I wasn't glowie.
