Why did you even bother putting them in seriously.

Sorry, i am grumpy and i don't like the things that are being done very much.

Was this from the new entertainer mission terminal, or the old Noble-in-the-theater? If they nerfed both, i'm really going to be upset...

Oh, and as an off-the-wall thought: destroy missions shift difficulty depending on your skill with your equipped weapon (i.e. a master pistoleer will get harder ones listed when holding a pistol rather than a rifle/carbine/melee). Any difference if you equip a Chid horn? Although, now that I think about it, dancers would be out of luck with this, so it's not real likely to make a difference.

I've been moaning about the same thing.

Hummwhat shall I do, take the entertainment mission for 200 to kor vella, and maybe break even. OR take the delivery mission and be 300 in profit. Oh the decisions.

But at least you don't have to deal the flourishes

KIASHIA!!!...It's me, Josvi!

...the new missions stink, huh? ...what is with them ALL being Dancer missions?

Or kill 2 meatlumps with an untrained skill and get twice as much cash then my missions give....

I don't know why they didn't just come out and tell entertainers/musicians and dancers that we not only have to grovel for food clothing and spending money but we also get to be slapped in the face by themwith a sugar coated hand and the promise of missions. I really am offended by this. its like we are not entitled to make our own way or something What happened to not having to be combat orintated.. ohh i guess that was nerfed too ...

Other comments about the new entertainment mission terminals?

Ummm sure Newjedi.....

They are very pretty.

Just so its clear.....NPC missions have also been nerfed.....those from teh hall paying up to 500 are now paying the same as the mission terminals.

FIX EM OR PULL EM SOE..................it is really an insult

Cannot believe how mad this made me....LOL .........Must be a good game after all.

Let's just all become hunters i guess cause there is no place forentertainment on this game except to live like an npc in a cantina.

I picked up one for 193 credits and 210 meters away, and it turned out to be in a hotel... and was labeled DANCER mission, even tho it said play a gig. So me and Trubakka went and played in the hotel for 15 minutes, and by this time normal OLD style ones usually kick in, but I guess I won't ever know since we left after another 15 minutes of dancing.

Yes, they look pretty, but I don't think the SOE QA department is going to have a good meeting in the morning.

'%TT has caused a band flourish.'

Hi, Kia. Sorry the game sucks now.

"No, that's the new WRONG NOTE band flourish proposal for musicians so they can all play the same song."

yeah, the new gig mission terminals are a bit of a joke. They should at least pay as well as a delivery mission. gig missions in my experience when I've had them actually work in the past take several minuites of playing or dancing someplace to complete them which is significantly more of a time sink than a delivery mission or even an easy destroy mission. Certainly there is less risk with a gig mission than with the destroy mission but there is no less risk than a delivery mission. Also it would be nice it here were somethig special about the gig missions.

Rightnow the gig missions are delivery missions that take longer to complete and pay less. They are not particularly interesting right now.

yeah, NewJedi.

Since the beginning... Musician missions are labeled "Dancer" missions in the mission details, but playing music is how you finish them. That's gotta be a bug.

Missions now take 10 minutes to finish. If you're not in a cantina where people are coming in and out, hellooooooo boredom. Please bring back the 5 minute gig mission.

All entertainment missions are 0 level difficulty, regardless of the skill level of the player and level of instrument equipped (yeah, I tried it with a chid horn.) This also includes those 12000m away from your location.

All gig missions apparently are the same. Go to hotel or cantina and play for 10 minutes. There is no audience other than the NPCs who are always in the target area. Very few of the NPCs react to your playing. None of them tip.

Spice NPC generated gig missions up. First, give us NPC "agents" instead of "nobles." You sign with an "agent" and can get the normal missions from them. Every so often, the "agent" would send you in game email stating they've got a "special" gig for you. Instead of the destination being a cantina or hotel, it's a dynamically generated POI outside of town limits. You play for the NPCs at the POI and get paid just like a regular gig mission. Difference is it pays more (more danger since you had to trek to get to it), you can have scripted dialogues with the NPCs at the POI (between the NPCs and also PC to NPC), you could have the NPCs start a bar fight or something spiffy, you could have an Imperial raid looking for contraband, and you could even have the NPCs not like your choice of entertainment and run you off from the POI! All these events would occur AFTER you received your reward. You could even use these as a possible starting point for a larger storyline with the end reward playing for some iconic NPC (Emperor, Jabba, etc.)

Anything extra would be better than what we have now for missions. Play for 10 mins, get a paltry reward, and maybe a couple of NPCs clap.
