I did once, I have a mon cal char (somewhere in the middle of rifleman) on erm.... I forgot, I think it was farstar.
However this was not a real test, as I was unable to completly ignore what I knew about the game, making money (which gives you the ability to buy better equipment etc and at the end is what helps you to advance) is quite easy in this game even for a new player that gathers some infos about what to do (I make it a habit to inform myself about basic things before actually starting to play, so I guess it wouldn't have been much different without the knowledge from already playing the game).
Oh and I have a trando brawler stuck at unarmed iv on testcenter, but there is a difference between playing on a server with ppl on it that you don't know or a server where hardly anyone is around at the time you play (on the first you can get your first doc buff after approx 1h of playing time if you know a bit about the game, and this is what lets your progress skyrocket most, on the other you might be able to afford one but without a doc around you can't get one
).

Well us Bothans (as my wanderhome guy is) are pretty resistant to that sort of thing. I mean when you made me the offer of 250k and i had about 2k on me. I think I took 2 NO WAIT 3 seconds to say yes

I hear you might get somewhat a break and have the wind blow North to South and might not get it all that bad... other then the wind blowing down everything and making the place look like the surface of the Moon BUT HEY, it might not be under water after all... Might not...

Well thankfully i live up in the northeast. So all i'll see from it is winds and heavy rain in a couple days. But a town built under sea level. Where the governor says the line
"Chemically polluted waters" "15 feet deep"
Well that just makes me scratch my balding head.
Oh yeah and go to Mos Eisly and show a newbie around

Allright, I knew you guys were incurable care bears :-)
So, tonight, at 8PMCST, Im gonna be at Mos Eisley(no greater den of vice and n00bery) in front of the cantina rounding up a pack of chillens to take out and face the dangers of mini nunas, banthas and killer kreetles. In case you think I dont have a life and spending a perfectly good Wed night otherwise hanging out post sca fighter practice at the Whataburger (Whataburger wedensday, 2 fer one, for gods sake!) and wolfing down mouthfulls of jalapeno ground cow w/ my sweaty friends, Im taking a bullet for communtiy, thats right, the communtiy.
Im looking fwd to tomorrow's post on the most incredible noob moment of our little adventure. Hehe, im even thinking about bring a set of tuskan gear and pull the old "Now that we are in the middle of nowhere, Hey Im a tuskan!Muhahahah" gag.

I was thinking about this, if you are grouped with them, won't the difficulty of the missions be quite a bit harder than if they grabbed themselves?

Actually what you do is have them grab the usual 1k missions but the spawns will pop a lot more because of the higher diffuculty level. It will make it more interesting for you anyway
