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.

I think you should have to live in a city anyway.

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 think that if we colonize the hunting planets we r takin away rom the players like me who lag, if u could cloinize yavin, and endor it would just be a madder of time before it turns out like coronet the lagfest city, or like dantooine where u can't travel 5 m without seeing a city limit sign come up, colonizing htese planets will make the game less of a roleplay and more of a simulator on who can make the biggest and laggiest city, i think that people should wake up and relize that if u take the exploration planets and colonize them how will anyone be able to progress, just the way the used to, on average i die 3 times a night unless i pvp, but those 3 times is caused by lag, from people spammin and havin to have their own city, why not move into a city and join them, a city of ur own wich everyone must have is usless, theirs no advantage if u have a city its another blop on a map thats full of lag and vendors that never have what they say they do. i hate the idea of colonizing yavin, endor, dath, and kashyyk, i say they should add planets in like mustafer, utopia, geonisis, and mustafer to be able to colonize, so with no or few creatures and no quest so people that must build can go do it without ruining our gameplay

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.
