We hear you andwhat we did with this feature is something a little different.


The locations on the "classified reports" are all within 150 meters (give or take a couple of meters) to get you started. Then what we did was list the total number of locations, but no other information. So if exploration is your thing, you might try to head out and see if you can find all of the spawn locations







150 my butt ... I went looking for the black sun spawn on Talus .. nothing within 1k meters.

Glad to hear those aren't the precise waypoints or all of the locations. Though 150m is kind of a small radius -- bounty hunter targets can be within 500m of their waypoints! Wouldn't mind searching a little more or having to follow some clues from NPCs (maybe an NPC at these locations who says, "I just saw them, they almost killed me, they were headed thataway!"), but this is much better than precise waypoints.


The Black Sun backstory worries me. Is there no one out there in Dev-land paying even cursory attention to the timeline they've chosen? Allowing Jedi in because players demanded it is one thing -- I'm not a big fan, but I understand the motivation. Who was out there clamoring for Xizor to be dead and Black Sun dissolved? For being defunct, Black Sun sure seems to be causing a lot of trouble in the spacelanes. And what about those Garyn raiders on Rori -- they've been mourning the death of their master since Darth Maul killed him 18 years ago?? Or was it more likely that someone was asleep at the switch there...

They either got the planet wrong or the WP wrong .. because the picture they show in the Friday Feature looks nothing like the terain found at -7500 -400

Are these missions or just POI's? Or is it a badge thing? If these are missions, are they tied to faction and if they are who do we talk to? It would be nice to have a little more info please. Thanks!

Nice. I like the look of things like this. More places to visit, besides the POI's, where most times they're camped.


Maybe someday these types of groups can have a respawn system that continualy respawns the NPC's in different locations across the planet so that there is no camping.


So a certain group of NPC's would be able to be attacked but somewhere else on the planet.


I guess this would be for the hard core hunters that love a challange.

Yeah, I'm guessing someone just wasn't paying attention to whether or not the Black Sun info was appropriate to the timeline. It's a cut-and-paste from the www.starwars.com databank:

now before i say my thoughts on this weeks Friday Feature. it is good. now onto my thoughts. with ep3 rage of the wookies preordering this month . it would have been a better use of a Friday Feature to talk about it or the CU thats comeing soon. dont get me wrong i liked this fluf stuff from some of the Friday Feature's . but when we got major change comeing in the form of combat update and a movie tine to revange of the sith. i think it would have been better to Friday Feature's on them first

I don't get it......the ones on Yavin have been there for months. Anyone who has gone looking for BH armor from Black Suns knows exactly where they are.
