Thread: for those almost done?

OK, this isn't the first time they changed the "path to jedi" and those of us pre-village know of the grueling process known as the holo-grind. Well when the village was implemented they (the devs) compensated the players who had been using the old format (the holo-grind) with the "free unlock(s)" of any FS branch including the XP needed to fill it.


Well now that they changed it again . . . will there be compensation for those players that were almost done? Just like the player that grinded 25 professions, many players have grinded most of what they needed (pre 21) to fill their FS branches . . . so will they be rewarded for the work they've done already?


Yeah, the answer is probably no . . . but this is more of an intent to make certain people feel guilty about the new change.

If you didnt pay attention to the many posts that have bantered around this forum the past week, then you get what you deserved. I am sorry for those of you just starting, it has just gotten a little harder, but no where near impossible. I cannot believe the whiners that have hit the forums about this. I am sorry if you didnt pick up the game before CU and play it because it was Star Wars liek some did. I was here pre-cu and saw the nerf that happened that when they pucked that wonderful thing on all of us, I heard all the doomsayers and whoa mongers that said it was the end of SWG. Guess what, it wasnt that bad and you had to adjust your game to the way SWG was now set up. Some people left, even more stayed, and some that left came back to learn that the game was still fun even though there were no Uber buffs out there and no soloing ancient krayt dragons for thier pearls.



Get over it people, this is the way the game is. Either play the GAME or quit and go to LOTOR or lego star wars or whatever floats your boat. The devs will not answer your posts, and the correspondents do the best they can. It is just a game and it will change.


Not to rub it in anyones face, but I need only 6k more fs xp and a phase change to unlock my jedi and alt, sorry I read the boards and got through with the grind. And I am by no means a power grinder or a nade thrower, I have never even thrown a nade in this game. I just had fun with the grind, and when it got boring I would go and do some of the other content that is in this HUGE game. Check it out sometime, you might find an actual game besides "Make myself a Jedi" that most people think this game is about.


So flame away, I still think that it isnt that big a deal, but who am I, not a noob and not a veteran, just someone who is inbetween the two terms.

After an indepth study of the forums I have seen that anyone who is near finishing the village finds the urge to berate everyone else for being whiners and flaming the original poster as well as weaving the tale of their so called "hard grind" into the post. Congrats on being FS, good for you, but we (or maybe if I'm alone on this) do not care.

The only people who deserved this, are the grenade abusers, everyone who was playing the game normally do NOT deserve this, especially those just going for their 2nd slots and not not Jedi.


Also not to rub it in yor face, but I'm done with the village, already a Jedi (which is far far easier to grind than FS), no more FS XP to get, but when I heard of this, I still think these new conversion rates suck.



---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You're out of time, SOE The whole 2.5 months shouldn't have been. The game was fine up until Nov 15th. If the CU was worked on, instead of devoting time to the NGE (including the many months prior to November), the game could possibly be totally bug free by now.

My account cancels on 2nd Feb, which was a waste as only played game for 1 day to get the life day gifts, will be resubbing when creature handler, Bio-engineer, scout, and ranger return, oh and the FS village.

I was looking forward to unlocking Jedi in about 4-6 days. and just a few more 15 minute trips to the village to convert xp.

It's dissapointment that I now have to kill yet even more bols/pickets to get Jedi. If getting the FS xp was actually fun, I wouldn't mind, but it's not....it's just tedious. And uou have no choice but to join yet another hunting group to get the xp. Anything else takes 100x longer.

And now I have to do that boring drive back to the village to convert my unarmed xp to Senses xp twice as many times, and it's only 44k FS xp per trip (I'm MCM, but medical xp won't convert to FS xp)

It's unfair for those only startng the FS grind also. Since they now have to do almost twice the work to get Jedi as those who have unlocked so far post-cu.

People have the right to complain. The game just became more tedious....more repetative, more boring. At the very least, they should have set this combat xp conversion rate back when the CU went live.

So yes, I will moan and complain as SOE just made the game less enjoyable for me. However, I doubt that this post will be ready by anyone in SOE, and I am 100% certain they will not change the conversion rate back. Yet another thing they have fubar'ed up.
