Would kind of like some info on how or where to start this thing. I've tried looking for the "aprehensive scientist" at imperial bases, research sites and such on every planet but have yet to find something other than "i've lost my buddy..." ect type missions. Can anyone who has started give a clue as to where to start? I'd love to try and worm my way throught this but its going to take me more than a few months to scour every inch of every planet to find the right rebel spy....Don't even tell me the loc/planet, that would kind of ruin it...but an idea of where to look or how to look for some way to start this mission would be great.



That is of corse if anyone has actually been able to start yet....


Thanks for any help in advance

I'm hoping it hasn't started yet because I don't have any clue either. I went to the Rebel HQ and no one there talked about it at all, not even Leia...although she still wants me to work my way up through all the reward-less missions until I can talk to her. If I need to do that I'm going to be really upset...

I am half way done with the quest already on the Intrepid server. Ill give you a tip. You need to kill human monsters to get the items needed to start the quest.

Ok i am completely confused also. It would be nice if they told what to do besides just giving an intro.

Thank you game designers, for announcing a quest, and giving us nothing more than a cut scene and nothing to go on other than "Leia's Top Spy, Project Dead Eye, and an "apprehensive lead scientist. Let's see out of how many worlds and how many cities, not to mention all the wilderness are we supposed to look for this mysterious top spy or lead scientist.


I look at the link for "Monthly Stories" and find nothing but this little blurb.


"


In mid-July 2003, we will begin the prologue to our first monthly story arc, "The Cries of Alderaan." Our goal is to provide featured quests that virtually any player can take part in. Your success or failure may sway the direction of the overall storyline."


Which tells us absolutely nothing about the story, quest, nothing. Not much ofa story in my book, doesn't even pique my interest. Come on guys you can tell a story better than that can't you? Here it is the 27th, and everyone I talk to says "Monthly Story? what story, where?" Not many people talking about this, hell not many people who even know about this.

The story has NOT started yet, they said early August, so hold your horses and wait for the quests to actually begin.

'Not much ofa story in my book' for a start this is a prolog, the information it tells us is the stuff leading up to the story, or what happened before the story, Its not telling us the story itself, the actual story is what WE do ingame, we make the story, how we choose to play the story will effect futor events in the SWG world story line.


The prolog was nice, but they havnt given enouhg information about how one would go about starting this, they gave little hints about what planet the event will be based around, but they didnt give any informaion as to what you have to do, where you find the ppl etc, with a game world this big its impossible to serarch a whole planet for single person/target/objective without a more specific area on a planet to search.

Does this have something to do with slicing data discs dropped by mobs...?


I currently have in my possession 2/4 parts of a decrypted rebel communique on a data disc... I've been looking high and low for more chunks.. got this part as a drop from a humanoid mob in Kor Vella.... which would kinda make sense actually.... I just need to find the other parts and piece them together I presume ?

I did a search for this quest, but I cant find anything. Anyone have any info on this quest, namely where it starts? I always see the "You have recieved a Cries of Alderaan" bonus: 3pts" when I do Reb missions from the terms, but havent a clue what they are. I saw them mentioned in the search, as a quest, but no more info than that.


Thanks!

This was the first story arc the devs tried and they unfortunately let it die. It was a great idea, but it's over with now.
