Do you think we might be able to colonize Yavin? I love the starter planets, but would like to found a city on Yavin. Dantooine is simply too purple, Talus to yellow, and Rori too swampy.
Yavin, though.... Yavin has the feel of a frountier land, yet lush jungle reminisent of Endor. Yavin would be perfect for Naboo style and Corellian style buildings... would anyone else suport the colonization of Yavin?
Of corse, I would not want the landscape marred by excessive buildings..one option might be to allow Yavin colonizationwhen a politicianapplies for permission to settle, and all new residential buildings only be allowed in established cities (up to 50). This would mean that in order to live in Yavin you would have to live in a city.

Yavin happens to be my favorite planet ... I rather like that we have some planets with no player cities ... no bases and less lag lol
In all seriosness ... on our server outside the village you have to navigate through a bunch of factories and harvestors people use to advertise. Just that alone spoils my trips to dath (oh and all the damn logs)

I know what you mean. I like the forested parts of Endor too, but I think no current building style would go well there. I'd like to see something like medieval style, stonework for the bigger buildings, wood hunting lodges, cross-timbered, etc.

They should have made the city placement Process though a /petition only anyway, and have GENEROUS No-Build zones around about everything. I mean, a city right beside the Tusken fort? come on...

It's nice to have some planets I can grind out the scout survival tree on. Most of the other planets I can't place down camps anywhere unless I'm way out in the boonys where nothing lives to hunt anyway.

I KNOW I KNOW I KNOW!
I hate surburban sprawl too! And want to have pleantly of adventure planets out there, free of cities and old-account players.
But I was speaking with freinds recently.. who all reside on Dantooine but hate the planet itself. TOO purple and savanah like. For role play.. it fitted their purposes.. but all would prefer a more lush planet to colonize (not Rori lush.., a cross between Endor and Naboo). That is when I went to Yavin.. I hadn't been there in ages!
Yavin seemed to be the answer to my prayers! With the Wookie homeworld being included as an adventure planet, and they are not allowing for another planet any time soon... I was thinking how PRIME Yavin would be. It really is magnificant!
The thing is: Dantooine is too .. purple and savanah like, Naboo and Corellia have too much Expanded Universe history behind them. Rori too lush (THAT should be Degobah!) and Tallus is too closely associated with Corellia.
Yavin though.. it is a outer rimed planet.. that might be authorized for colonization.
But maybe only in my dreams!

If you can manage to place a Guild Hall on Yavin, I'll be majorly impressed...well hell I'll be majorly impressed if you can even set foot on Yavin.
