Thread: A jedi theory I'm actually trying

I said it was stated that NOTHING was done regarding Force Sensitive charslots on creation, not that it wasn't unlocked, that's pretty obvious. And no, looks will not be different for everyone, I can very easily make 3 characters that look exactly the same (actually, I did, all my characters are identical).


I don't care much about the Jedi FAQ in this one, because making it different for everyone simply means that everyone will do it in a different order etc. The things needing to be done, cannot be different for everyone. This game has more than 1 million customers, and with a 10 char limit per account that would require 10 million different ways to open FS charslot. That would require several CDs just for the FS unlocking code, so it's a void argument.

I dunno, sounds too linear, not really the recpie I envisioned Holo talking about. True or not, its a good idea.

Eaze, your last post just contradicts yourself. You say it won't be different for everyone, but you just quote from the faq or something and IT DOES say. And with the character looks thing, thats just something I thought up right now, and I don't really include it with the theory.

No, the devs said everyone will be able to get the Force Sensitive slot, both hardcore and casual gamers. They never said it was easy or hard, they just said it was mysterious. They never said if it was linear or not linear, so that's why I'm actually trying this theory as itfits with all the requirements andstories and events peoplehave encountered.

He's right, they did say that the casual gamer has just as much of a chance as the hardcore gamer...i.e There probably isnt some long drawn out quest to become force sensitive.

Devs did say however; that the road to becoming a Jedi was ultra hard. So everyone will, or has a chance at some point become force sensitive..its what you do and where you go afterwards; that will be the hardest task. If you read on it, once you obtain this force slot...at some point you will be hunted down by the Empire before you can even become a full fledged Jedi.

This is where all these way out planets come in...because you would want to get as far away from the Empire as possible. But even then the Dark Jedi wont be 2 far away...beginning to see the difficulty here?

That means you better have a pretty strong support group around you at all times (sounds like Luke, as his @ss would've been grass w/o Han) You guys are focusing to much on how to become force sensitive and not enough on "what the hell do I do next"! because I for one want to make sure I make as many friends as possible.

Yeah. Anyone can obtain a FS slot. Not everyone can be a Jedi, however. Jedis are tough guys to be...

Very nice idea blue, a lot more logical than most theories.


I would like to think that you are wrong tho, as if someone deletes their destined container then they will never unlock the slot.....i always give my locked containers away to smugglers, as slicing is their business....imagine if someone paid a smuggler to slice his container and the sumggler found something interesting in there and told the guy that the container contained some crap pistol he had in his inventory so he could keep the item.


If this turns out to be the way it works, everyone will have to become a smuggler to open the slot, lets face it, anyone role-playing a smuggler cant be trustworthy


Sorry to pick-holes, as i said its a nice theory.

Yeah, that is a good idea. I am expecting it to be something like that. But they did say yuo wouldn't know how you did it.... the message would come a few hours after you said it.

Y'know, for all those people saying theories can't be true because they're the same for everyone...well how do you know there aren't multiple different pathes? I'm not saying this theory is necessarily true, but for all the theories I've read so far, someone always comes in saying the path is too straightforward and too easily duplicated. If there were so much as 3-5 main paths, each with their own variations of NPCs/items/quests, that could potentially lead to an enormous number of possibilities, which could result in a different method for all players. It's like math...theories on paper always sound straightforward until you throw in real-world applications. Similarly, a straightforward FSCS theory posted in the forums could sound really simple, but when you throw in 7 cities spanning 16,000 square meters, along with hundreds of different NPCs, and the fact that the NPC generation is likely random, is it really that simple anymore?

Oh, to add onto the theory. The devs said the life of a jedi was a lonely one, so I'm guessing it starts with unlocking the Force Sensitive slot. I'm thinking you can obtain any items from other players that revolve around the quest, and the trials I mentioned would have to be done alone. All it does is prepare you for what being a jedi is like.


Oh, and if anyone is interested, I found loads of locked containers last night, so I'm gonna now look for some maps and stuff.

90% of the "theories" are flawed because of one simple thing; they are based on a system that is the same for everyone, one of the few things the devs explicitly state in not true. This lumps in nicely with that 90%. I think it's time to stop speculation and start documenting. I have heard about some kind of message you get when you are close to unlocking a FS slot, people need to just record the message(screens preferably), and state what they were doing at the time, profession, location all that jazz. Anything else is just wasted effort.


NOTE: Not a flame.

I recall a dev saying that once you have unlocked the force slot, you probably won't know how you did it. This disproves your theory.
