I too think it's funny that Coronet is the hub of SWG. While I completely understand how it happened, it still seems funny. I think the devs intended Keren to be the place to go to make trades/deals/sales... at least that what is says in the one load screen. But I like Coronet. I think it's pretty, and simple, and as others have said EASY to get things done.


what is MO? I can't figure out what this stands for...

Coronet on Eclipse has been deserted for months now ... not a single soul there MOP seems to be the place to be now




"I have tried to design so people who wouldn't normally hang out together
come to realize each other's importance in the world,
the value of their roles in the society, that sort of thing.
So I try to have interdependence as a key feature
- people relying on each other"

MO is starting to be very popular meeting place in Farstar. Somedays there might be more people than in Coronet (a.k.a. Corolag).

If SWG launched as it is today... Coronet would NOT be the center point.


The reason Coronet is the most populated city is because back in the day Corellia was the planet everyone had to go through when travelling and with Coronet being the larger city on the planet it was the first choice. Coronet is also the most conveniantly laid out city on Corellia compared to the other static towns.


And MO is a hot place on all servers. MO is the place where solo groups mostly organize and run... It was the best place for grinding money and XP with the solo groups. But with the Combat Downgrade I think that is going to change.

Before MO it was Dath with the high paying missions anyone could get and before that it was Endor with their high paying missions anyone could get.

With the Combat Downgrade alot of people are starting to head to Lok.

It would be nice if Rori got some action. It's beautiful there, nice hunting, and great resources!

I have to agree with what someone else posted about Rori: IT'S TOO DARK!


Even at high noon, with a clear sky, the ground looks like it should during twilight. I can't figure the logic of this. Rori is supposed to be a moon of Naboo, and that means similar illumination, less gravity, and a less dense atmosphere, in the universe I come from. Apart from the physical rationale, and more to the player-experience point, the overall experience is kind of depressing.

rori is supposed to be a swampy bog type moon. so there's always a thick haze in the atmosphere.


i runa big Roleplaying event every monday night at a secret location on Rori, on the Sunrunner server. so that brings people to the little moon at least once a week.

Read the books, you get your answer. Coronet was the trading centerpoint of the entire galaxy.

it totally made sense according to the EU and also in the early SWG cause it was a crossroads.

But it has many disadvantages and I hope JTL and CU will make it less popular, and entice people to go to other cool places.

The look of coronet is not good. It does not remind me of movies, I beleive the devs did not manage to succeed in designing a huge modern city with big buildings. Naboo and especially Tatooine are way more starwarsey and good looking... they have a soul coronet or any other corellian / talusian city does not have. I don't like how far the cantina is too... in coronet. I know it is prolly not more distant than the theed one from starport but I strangely always hate travelling to it by foot.
