So how is somebody like me going to master pilot by myself when nobody wants to help. Nor do I even want to take the time to meet people to help. I don't understand how you can GIVE AWAY jedi. example:don't belive it takes a group to become a jedi. Yet master pilot takes a group of people. WHAT are you DEV's thinking.






MMORPG=Massively Multiplayer Online RolePlaying Game


That's the point of the MMO man. Don't complain because you want to go solo in a multiplayer game.

Grouping and playing with others is the whole point of an MMO. If you don't like it, then you should be playing an offline game.
I had to group many times to complete my space missions. Sure it was a pain, and maybe I didn't always want to group, but I wanted to complete my mission. Besides, it can be fun to group up.

Just Another WORD on very BAD game design by the DEV's JTL has to be one of the crappest game add-on's in the WORLD. I've been around video games for over 20 years now and just would like to know what in the world you DEV's were thinking when you made JTL. For example:


JTL is one of the GREATEST expansions ever. Most expansions only give you some new weapons, armor, skills and maybe a new map or two. JTL was a brand new game. Lacking in content and rushed, but still a damn fine expansion. Being around video games for 20 years you should be able to recognize that. However, "being around" video games, and playing them are two different things.

It's a MMORPG pal. Better get used to it or close your account because grouping is going to be encouraged even more when the CU drops. If you're a solo guy I suggest getting your hands on a Gameboy SP and lock yourself in your house.


Listen you have my account info with phone.. Call me up so I can help you with better game design. Oh I"m also a MP MBH with 6 unlocks.. Do me a big favor do away with mask sent. It doesn't work worth crap either. Being you give me no tools to fight jedi. So I try to use the area round me to help example. jedi's love grindin Krayt. So when I head over to attack the target that is grindin these Krayt I hide my smell with the so called Mask. It don't work, the animal picks right up on me and attacks me.. No don't tell me to take food or drink because I'm to busy using up that in protect what little it is againest jedi. WAKE up guys start thinkin alittle better or get some better testers..


And that's in this postwhy?


OH and it's not that I don't have friends online or had. Most quit playing after year and half and the few that I still no don't want to do space missions cause it sucks to them. Did you dev's not want alot of people flyin YT-1300's around? Yet jedi can be a dime a dozen?

I have been playing JTL since beta. This is not gonna change. Adapt and overcome. I am on your serverso put me on your list, if I can I will help. I myself perfer solo, space and ground, but it is only a few missions. I still havn't made master yet,am on my tier 4 exit mission, but I got my A-wing, so no worries. As you say, some are just impossible to solo, I can take all the ships out, even the big ones with work, and good tatics, but the mission keeps timeing out, oh well one day.

I understand that you're post may have been to vent a little, and I hear you in that it can be frustrating. Others have made good points about this being an MMO and how grouping is sometimes required.

For what it's worth, the mission you're talking about can be solo'ed with a little bit of practice. Taking down a gunboat is actually EXTREMELY simple once you understand how it flies and behaves. Here's some questions to consider:

How are you approaching the gunboat?

Are you running a few droid programs such as shield shunt?

Have you tried going to Kessel and practing to take down gunboats?

A while back, I would get blown to bits every single time I tried to face a gunboat. I made it my goal to be able to handle these things. A short while later I was able to without any trouble at all.

Good luck to you.

People beat that mission every day.

People beat that mission solo.

People beat that mission in groups.

What's your problem?

No one cares if you think someone who isnt a Master Scout (at least) should be able to hide from the biggest meanest predator on Tatooine.

You could have posted here asking for advice on the mission or your ship or your tactics.

Instead you just came to complain.

Only reason I'm posting is to explain how narrow minded I think your viewpoint is.
