Isn't chapter 11 supposed to be done sometime in 2013?

That's impossible.  The world ends in 2012.

 

 

Seriously, I remember when they promised Hoth back in 2004 at the first fan fest.   Glad they finally got around to it. 


This is the first time they've ever mentioned Hoth being added.

There has been dev talk about Hoth since shortly after launch. Nice to see them finally doing something about it. I fear it is to little, too late.

Dargnon, that's like 30 people...

That's exactly my point.  30 people in Rustess, 30 in Mos Eisley...  Where are all the other people?  I found a total of 3 people on all the planets that weren't in Rustess or Mos Eisley on Bloodfin last week, I found MAYBE 70 people total.

That was on a Friday night, CST.

Thank you for posting screenshots but sadly it only confirms how low the populations are.

Doing instances, collections...

 

you know there are like 100 various collections and to do them you have to wander across all of the planets, not stain in Resty or Eisley.

And each instance is for 8 ppl. Sometimes there are so many ppl doing them that you cant get in as it says "all instances of this dungeon are currently in use". At friday night i would guess there are at least 40 more ppl in instences at any time. Add some pilots that are doing their stuff in space, PvPing or trying to get gunships, add dozens of ppl doing collections on all of the planets... few hundred ppl online is imho OK as this game is only starting to attract more and more players.

Can someone who uses the term "cookie cutter instance" tell me exactly what that means to you? I get the impression that you are saying each instance is the same except for the skins on the NPC's.

For example the new Exar Kun instance requires the group to adopt many different tactics thoughout the instance to complete it. You can't just DPS everything and hope to have a chance to finish it.

 

 

You know what they mean. When people say cookie cutter mmo.'s. ..Its the same here. If its PVE then its the same every time. If it were pvp and they add atmosheric flight..i mean the real deal..and pilotable AT-AT's that dont look retarded...thats something that is NOT cookie cutter. Thats something that is starwars.

No, that would be Battlefront which is cookie cutter. Were playing RPG not FPS.

The approval for NGE had nothing to do with LA, it was one guy with the idea of NGE and they had a completely different team work on it, the current dev team at the time had no clue about it, hence why patch notes were saying Squad leader will be fixed next patch, etc. You know professions that were still around.

The story was posted on here by that dev, I think, or one of the staff at this site.

Looks like I shall be subscribing again. I still don't have the money to commit to an rpg, *shakes fist at SOE for adding content! Hasn't SOE heard that they are dying? LOL.

Hopefully it is what people wanted, and a completely open pvp area like restuss.

QFE, summits are just a bunch of talk. Last year it was the "new" and "cool"  "iconic" Animations for Jedi, and other professions. that never happened.

Open PvP with At-Ats and Speeders?  Give me a break.  There isn't even atmosphereric flight...  Adding it would make the game lag beyond playability...

Isn't going to happen.  Don't be suckered in by the fanbois.  From a technical standpoint these guys can't pull it off and make it worth your time.

Sandbox please.
