Star Wars Galaxies News - Starship Stat Changes
Posted by Keith Cross on Apr 06, 2009 | 6 comments in our forums
The latest Developer Diary on the Star Wars Galaxies official site takes a look at statistics changes to a number of the game's starships.
With Game Update 9 several of the spaceships in the game have received a number of changes to bring them into balance with other ships.
Here is a quick overview of the changes that can currently be found on the TestCenter and TC-Prime servers!
Ship Improvements
All the numbers given for the ships handling and speed are specific to each of the chassis's described. In addition to the chassis specific numbers, any given ships handling will be further modified by the engine installed and possibly any engine overload running on the ships droid Interface.
Acceleration – This number affects how fast the ship will accelerate to its top speed
Deceleration – How fast the ship can reduce its speed
Yaw and pitch acceleration – How fast the ship reaches its top turn speed. This value will also be affected by the ships current forward speed.
Roll – How fast the ship roll's around its own center point
Please note: All numbers are subject to change during the testing phase.

Hope they don't screw this up, SWG space is one of the last untouched and fun parts of the game. Certainly not that much ship imbalance in the current system. If we start seeing fotm ships it will be obvious they broke another portion of the game.
If only Space had been based on X-Wing vs TIE Fighter and not Wing Commander. I'd still be playing SWG then.
Emperor Palpatine: "Ah yesss, the full ruination of Star Wars Galaxies iss almost complete!"
SOE: "You are correct my master."
Peole still play this game??
Seriously, why?
to show their dumbness. They act extra stupid to show the creators of this game only fools go play this game lol
Ditto!
I read once the original engine was based on Tie-Fighter game play and UI. They even had a playable version that was thrown into the rubbish to be replaced by the Origin style one.
The worst thing in space combat is the NPC yelling at you. Not only it's boring, you can disable it and hell, how did they manage to hack my communication system...
