Mind you, an Imperial factionned Smuggler can do them.... if choosing Privateer as a pilot profession

Yeah, but having to shoot down Imperial fighters just seems so wrong if you're an Imperial I mean, I had to find a year's supply of helmet polish for Vader after slicing off some weapons - I'd hate to think what would be in store for me if I took out a wing of his fighters!!!
I'm sure down the road the missions will start to balance out - I'm just glad that we're starting to get Smuggler missions period!!
Cheers

Well, I actually understand why these missions are not open to imps. maily because in the mission you have to shoot down TIE fighters many times.
You would think that they could easily swap the ties out for other ships.
But of course, game wise, I can see the problem.

How hard is it to just initiate some non-GCW scan team ship in space? Seriously!
[A CorSec gunship hyperspaces in nearly on top of you]
[window similar to starbase converse opens]
CorSec Captian- "Attention (name of ship), this is CorSec system patrol craft THX-1138. Cut your engines and prepare for inspection. Immediately!"
[option 1] "Who me? Sure, sure cap'n... but we're just here delivering food to the refugees..." (submit for scan - underworld scan evasion % effects results, Imperial rank does not)
[option 2] "Inspection? Inspection?! We don't need no stinking inspection!" (make a run/fight for it - the gunship opens fire)
[option 3] No reply / fake comm trouble (buy some time to run/fight)

Uhm. I just got the exact same type of mission (meet contact, pick up 'shady' cargo, hyperspace to different sector, avoid the 'authorities') on Yavin IV. And my character is not a Smuggler at all. So much for that. Bah.
THAT's what I figured...

Excellent des moving int he right direction though.. WHY OH WHY give the smuggler missions just to neuts and Rebs. imps Smuggle too. Han was a navy pilot first. What better place to smuggle form then under the watchful eye of a moff. Fine I can understand that there may be issues with flying smuggler missions in a Deciamtor or Tie Ship. so hwo about a firespray. or as I previosuly mentioned Why cant All Masters use Master Ships thus choosign the ship they want to use?? This is not an invitation to flame but invitation to whine with me

Hate to bust everyones bubble but............ they are for anyone (profession wise) not just smuggler. This is about equal if it they changed the Mission Terminal name to Fencer Missions, but everyone could still use it. Nice try to pull the wool over our eyes.

umm, u go to the talus station and try to take the mission there, if u r not a Smuggler on the ground, u will not recieve the mission.
Yes but the point is that there are similar missions available through normal channels...
Have to agree,just a run of the mill delivery mission. Saying that though i have only done the first mission so far..and as a Master Smuggler/Privateer 4 4 3 3 it was far too easey. Im sure i read somewhere these new missions would be geared to your respective skills,maybe im just being hopeful.
Some Smuggler based activity would be nice tbh,deliver and shoot is available to everyone we just seem to be getting the privalige of having our own unique place to collect these missions. Why fight the imps? How about bluffing(aka "everythings fine,were fine down here....how are you?"),or even bribing? Also why base the missions from Talus? Id feel more of a Smuggler if it was the main man himself jabba who was giving me these missions,i want to run into trouble have the option to dump my cargo and get a bounty hunter on my ass for screwing up!
Doesnt really inspire me with confidence for our revamp really,assuming that is we actually get one....
