Possible Future of SWG

[Oeree]

I was searching the net, and came upon this:

Most of it I was okay with what I saw, for the most part, if it was reported correctly. Except... "the devs are not happy with the current state of pvp (ruled by jedi) and the highly antagonistic relationship between jedi and bh's" What the hell do they expect BHs and Jedi to do? Sit down and have tea?

I also heard from a reliable source (that went to Fan Fest) that before long, there will be a small "jump" in the time Galaxies exists in order to keep up with canon continuity. No clue how big a jump or when, but still cool.

Can anyone say, "Hoth?" Tauntauns and wampas... Oooooo. :-D

[Lok'i Vidaar]

You can also say "Bandwidth limit exceeded" :P

Their site is down lol ;)

But I get he jist of it, and Hoth would be too awesomely awesome!

I just wonder when exactly the time period would be for Hoth... before or after the attack...

And would we be able to PvPRP the battle :P

I'd presume it'd be before the attack: that'd make the most sense. But this is all secondhand information anyways. Although it would be cool.

Before the attack would be neat, but a case could be made for after the attack as well. I think so, anyway.

How much time passes between the OT movies?
I figure post battle would be cool, and it would be interesting if the post battle planet was mostly barren except for creatures like the yeti man thing...

The environments on planets atm dont affect anything, it would be cool to see adverse affects like say at nightfall. On DAOC they made underwater breathing potions. You had a timer and if it ran out under water you would drown.
If they had a daylight tracker on Hoth, and gave us shelters we could get inside, that would be awesome.

plus post battle colonization might be interesting. Just another POS expansion for us to pay for...

as far as the Jedi thing, I recall Yoda telling Luke he is the LAST of the jedi... so wth...

[Kyanus]

This is true. Then they could make the Rebel Hoth base a dungeon, and that would be pretty cool. But of course, most of this would be hinged on them even wanting to add Hoth. I'm just hoping they do, heh heh.

I believe it's five years between the A New Hope and Empire. I can't remember about between Empire and Jedi, but I'm thinking it's about two years.

I'd like to respond to the devs when they say "not happy with the current state of pvp (ruled by jedi) and the highly antagonistic relationship between jedi and bh's" ...

To Devs: Well.. duuuh. If you make one class completely the uberest.. of course everyone (especially the PvP minded people) is going to want to be that even if it takes a lot longer to get there.

I wonder what threads this person got all of their information from.

Especially the bit about dual wielding...as I recall, the only info about dual wielding is that it will never happen...ever. I haven't checked the boards in depth, but that was what I remember.

I read about all this stuff in a synopsis from Fan Fest that was posted last night in the SOE Fan Fest forum.

[warsloth]

I read through it, and I liked most of it. Dual wield would be pretty cool, especially dual wielding melee and pistols. I bet a shield of some sort would be nice, like the gungan ones from Ep.1 but they didnt mention shields.

They should do a DE revamp, and make droids more customizeable. Like you see so many variations of protocol droids with different heads.

Here's an Idea for the padawan master relation and "maybee" a way to limit the futher growth of jedi.

1) Get rid of the village.

2) Ever Master designates one Padawan or Knight as their student.

3) Padawan's and Knights can only learn new jedi skills from their Masters.

4) Padawans and Knights can only learn skills that their Master knows.

5) Masters can only have one student at a time.

6) If a Master removes a Padawan or Knight from beining his or her student that Master cannot chose that player ever again to be a student.

Jerrel, a nice suggestion if we were ACTUALLY doing this stuff for real and there were real-life consequences. There's no way in HELL they could get away with that in this game. Talk about mass exodus...

Yeah, those are some good suggestions, but the greifing in that system would be HUGE. Masters would grief their students by extorting credits and favors. Masters could all get together and decide among them who is going to get to be a jadi and who isn't. It'd be chaos and griefing on a whole new level.
