Q-3PO

I can get the internal metrics for this, but I wanted to get your perceptions.

Have you gotten your Badge for this story (turned in the final compiled disk)?

How many disk fragments have you gotten so far?

Have you given away any or sold any?

If sold, how much do you get when you sell them? (or how much have you paid to get one)

Are the Data Disks too hard to get?

Now I'm sure a lot of you will say they are too hard to come by. From my perspective the drop rate seems good because it is supposed to take a casual player several weeks to collect them all and some they may end up buying from the powerplayers. But I want to hear your thoughts. As this is the first month, I'm sure there are things we can improve on in the future.

I have obtained 1/4 rebel and I have not sold/bought any.  I also killed NPCs for about 6 hours as well.   Kinda hard, discouraging at times to be honest since they don't even have junk loot.  I'll keep trying though.

I've found 2 disks. I bought a complete set of disks for 100,000 credits.

I had a few other disks when the story line when active.   I've killed thousands (not an exageration) of humanoids of varying levels and have not seen a disk.  What I've seen is 2 locked containers, and a weapons.

I am a casual player and I have only come across one and that is all.  I think there should be some definate way to get them, ie. killing imperial or rebel vs. killing just any random thing to get these disks.

I've recieved 1 disk so far.  And a lot of worthless weapons.  And some locked containers. 

It would be nice if NPC's would at least drop credits more consistantly.

So far, I have one imperial and one rebel disk.  I play for about 2-3 hours a day on weekdays and about 5 hours or so on weekends.  Note, about 1/4 of that time is hunting while the rest is doing architect stuff.

I've been kiling every NPC on Naboo that I can and haven't found any more disks in over a week.

On test I have successfully completed 2 imperial and 1 rebel set of disks.  I have traded away about 3-4 disks and currently own 4 disks, needing one more to complete yet another imperial mission disk.

 

I play on TC.  I run TONS of missions and generally get a disk or two per day.  The drop rate, IMHO, is fine.

Not being a combat class, I find that my involvement is very limited. I run npc missions and the like, but none that involve killing all of the <insert npcs here>. Once, I found a disk on a weak npc who aggro'ed me. I promptly sold it for 15k to feed the harvestors.

Have you gotten your Badge for this story (turned in the final compiled disk)?

No, but I have all 4 Rebel disks, plus 1 extra rebel and 3 Imperial (all the same, 1/4)

How many disk fragments have you gotten so far?

5 looted personally, 4 more traded/given to me by friends.

Have you given away any or sold any?

Traded 1, sold 1, given 1 to a friend.

If sold, how much do you get when you sell them? (or how much have you paid to get one)

20k, initial offer was 15k but quickly raised.  People will raise their prices considerably if the disk they are buying completes a set.

Are the Data Disks too hard to get?

Yes and No.  You must know what to hunt (best results from "evil" NPCs like evil settlers on Tatooine) and where to find good concentrations of said targets.  If you don't know that and go after it, the disks are going to seem extremely rare to you.
