As i remember, whilst watching the films, Jedi or even Force Sensitive people, could "feel" danger targeting them.
is it possible, DEVS. to add some form of "mystic" warning alert to come through the speakers, or in text format. when (just before, like 1 second) a NPC ship targets you? Okay the music does it now. but could we (FS / JEDI) characters have some other BASIC force command. that is used in game?
example,
flying in my Xwing around Yavin IV. minding my own business, 1k out, a tier 4 witchblade spots me, i enter its activiation area, (so it targets me) now the music plays...
but could we have it, like, at a certain range from the NPC, say, 1.6k out. Any Force sensitive person or Jedi. could be told, via 2 forms.
1) Text on Screen
2) Spoken voice, saying...."You feel a tingle on your neck" or "danger leads to the dark side." or what ever?
Anyone got views on this system? Are you Jedi / FS ??

Jedi aren't going to get any special powers in space. I wish they'd get something like this for when a Bounty Hunter approaches on the ground, though.
I am a Jedi.

thanks for the one stars guys!
mind give you one
so Luke Skywalker didnt use "special powers" im not asking for a special power, we turn on or not. it just is!
period. it does it all the time, either in space or in ground.
That is why jedi have awareness so high? yet in Sonys view of SW. it doesnt exist.

i can already tell one second before an enemy attacks me. the music starts playing. stop scrounging for extra cool stuff.
if youre really that desperate for ONE second of flight combat awareness....you need to work on your skills as a videogame pilot. i have no trouble.

I am not a Jedi, so let's get that out of the way right up front LOL...
I think its a good idea. Not saying it should help inANY way shape or form, but it happened in the movies. It's a neat feature that would bring more of a Star Wars feel to the game, and all it would do is add some sort of cool feature for a Jedi. Heck, I think it would be cool if instead of the music we all get, they got a screen message and a different Jedi-ish music at the SAME time we do. Even if they get a one second better jump, do you really think a one second jump on a NPC (read NPC) makes so much difference to a Jedi over a non-Jedi? Is it going to affect a non-Jedi's game? Does it hurt you? Are you jealous? Why is it that everyone seems so quick to jump down Jedi's throats nowadays about anything?

No, please no. You have the ground game, that is yours, do with it as you wish. Let the rest of us have some fun in space without having to cater for the uber ones.
I want to see smugglers get some abilities in space as well as content, man they need it more than any of us, and once they do I'd be happy to fly on their wing.
Please leave space for us.

Do you also suggest someone who is good with blasters get a benefit in JTL? The whole problem is on of twitch vs non-twitch. When a game is twitch based it is based almost entirely on the skill of the player and not on his characters skills. Granted, the components make a big difference but if two people have the exact same components then the winner should not be determined base upon my being a novice artisan and the other person being a Master combat character or even a Jedi.
Jedi do get something in space though, they can die without losing xp. But that is about it.

Where in my post did i even mention i am a lousy pilot?
currently 3/3/2/2
ALL i wanted to ask is to move this game in one direction. STAR WARS !!!! why cant people accept that? When i fly my Xwing, do i belive im in Poke'mon? no im in STAR WARS!
If luke skywalker can zig and zag down the Trench in IV. Why cant us Jedi have some form of and let me rephrase this for our American cousins...
A feature that gives us Jedi a split sceond alert to an incoming threat? why is that so imporant? well arent we supposed to be one with the "ever present FORCE?" isnt that why people want to be JEDI? to have mystical force powers?
ALL im asking the devs, is it possible to have some form of alert for us Jedi or FS characters? WHY the big deal?

want ever present force? come to scyllia and ill be on your- oh wait hes a reb.. Now I cant do anything to him...
however, how about.. this:
when a jedi pilot's ship is about to be blown up, a mystical voice says "YOU F*ING SUCK MORON! YOU DONT DESERVE TO BE UBAR!"

and that is precisely the reason most Jedi are very happy with the way things work in space. It's not broken, don't make them fix it!

I have to put my 2cents in here on this.
Why give me the option to waste 4 skill points on FS vehicular control and not let it affect spaceflight?
Are there any plans to make this effective or is the decision already made?
