While we're waiting Caylin, why don't you slip me the answer to that spice question?
...c'mon. Nobody's reading this thread. I wanna know the answer and watch all my reasons for living unravel.

yeah,
It's all good though- I've been busy-ing myself with what I should do with the BH character I'm trying to level on Starsider. These new revelations are VERY exciting!
Of course- Not as exciting as our revamp- Or that lil' tid-bit of info your holding in your noggin.

We STILL haven't been able to agree on a smuggling mission system.
While this new design doc may provide insights and inspiration for new solutions,
we still have at least 6 in the other thread to really mull over.
1) Have missions only possibly resulting in PvE offer less to skim.
2) Same loot for all
3) Military/Civilian loot differentiation
4) Local Authorities catch you and creat bounties.
5) Crime bosses that give missions also give visibility for "poorly completed" missions
and you can pay them off with credits
6) Not so much visibility is created that only one or two failed missions will put you on
terms, and visibility decays.
Personally, the biggest issue I see is the risks of PvE/PvP need to be clearly defined as
they are now and THEN create a fair system. For jedi, there was skill loss from PC BHs,
for us? nadda cept some emotions and humiliation. PvErs even suffer decay.
Let's not get too far ahead of ourselves. The devs are letting us have a HUGE say in this.
We need to be as unified and clear aspossible, and that means going over and agreeing
on even the smallest details.

He said he had enough to work out a compromise between it all and I gotta agree with him. We were starting to talk in circles about the same ideas anyway. I think there is more than enough to pick out a good system.
I'm ready for Underworld when he is.

Greenmarine,
If you see this thread, please understand we are being patient and are loving the fact that we are having this much dialogue with anyone on the Dev teams. Thanks for giving us a little hope.
