The Jedi are here (SWG)

I'm surprised no one has said anything yet.
I think the Jedi count is upto 5.
People are still trying to piece together what they did to get the Force character.
So far it might be something as simple as mastering 9 proffesions.
Also, high level Bounty Hunters can obtain missions to hunt PC Jedi on their server although its not fully functional.

The reason no one mentioned it is probably because they already got bored of SGW and stopped playing.

I can't see why even Star Wars fans would play that game, but...

It means in the six months this game has been released, and the seemingly 250,000+ gamers playing it since, only TWO have become Jedi. How exciting for a Star Wars game!

amen.

Those brand new Jedi can enjoy the lack of content all over again. Being a Jedi is just going to be like they added a new profession in SWG. An uber profession, but still, nothing major.

So I take it this is like getting your epic in EQ then? The same magnitude? Kudos to them but I grew tired of MMORPG's long ago

At least people knew how to get their epic in EQ, or the quests they were doing were for the epic. With SWG, they don't know. It could be random. it could be based on something.. who knows.

One question about SWG - if I'm not logged in, I can't get killed, right? If I became a Jedi I would just not log in for a while, keep my Jedi status and wait for some quests and/or expansion packs to come along and give me something to do.

Just my .02, take it for what it's worth.
