Hey guys, i thought up of a great new idea! Somtimes people dont want to build their house in player cities for various reasons like mabye its to far to walk or mabye you dont have enough to waste on shuttle port money. My idea is to let people buy small houses in certain NPC cities. The ones that they would be allowed to build in would be Theed, Coronet, Dant Mining(just mabye), Tatooine Mos Eisly, and mabye a few more. The only downside to this is houses are all the same size there, a small house and you would have to pay tax to the city. As you know, this would unattract people from living in player cities but mabye what you can do in player cities is make them more populated withmabye commoners, nobles, and even mabye create your own quest NPCS such as if its an imperial city you can make a small house and put a imperial looking commander that says Grand Admiral (name).


So guys, what do you think?

This really isn't a new idea. It's brought up all the time.

The problem with living in NPC cities is that it would virtualy kill player ones, you'd run out of room fast and that the rest of the planet would be deserted. Imagine if everyone lived in Mos Isley; What else would you do on Tatooine? It would be a huge empty spot with no reason other than Krayts to explore it.

^True^, but on some of the smaller servers, there is no longer an NPC city atmosphere anymore,and although the dev's want to reverse this, there should be some reater player activity in the role of the NPC city.

Why do people always have to call their ideas "great" and "" awesome"? Especially when the idea is as old as the game is?




"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"

People are too lazy to do a search and see their idea has been around for ages.

houses are too big but maybee apartment blocks can be rented or got as a special reward (maybee vet) this could also be used for GCW and allow rebs to have underworld houses and imperials large halls etc

Perhaps player apartments in NPC cities could be limited by not being able to create vendors and by always being private, so that people have to be explicitly permitted entry. They could also only have an entry list, so you can't have multiple people be admin on the same apartment. Depends on the size of the apartment, that equivalent lot usage would be used up.
