Will the improvements to player faction turrets be included in this patch? Specifically I am refering to the increase in range.

These are great, too bad this wasn't done last month with the BE revamp. Documentation is still needed on the BE system and actually a whole game guide on BE would be nice. Thanks.

Can I get a Little Clarification please:




The biggest obstacle they face are the smugglers. It has been rumored that smugglers can help cloak Rebels and contraband from Imperial searches in Cantinas and can escape the ever-searching sensors of wilderness probots and have made hefty profits in smuggling contraband.





Does this mean being grouped with a smuggler will also benifit the group or does this just mean that smugglers get a bonus egainst scans (either way is way fine by me, just curious)

nice feature for january but by the way i would only say this :


"I will tell you this, Droids (and DE's) are going to be the MAIN feature for the January publish. We will be fixing alot of things and adding combat droids. Yes, talk is cheap."

Q, were still waiting for TH to tell us what was changed with the Penalties.



Rebels got a TEF (Makes sense)


Neutrals well, im not sure what they got. (Should be charged a small fine if anything)


Imperials got busted to Private and lost 500FP (Ummm...huh?)



What did you change? I thought this post was going to be an update.

I think the loss of 500 faction is to much for Imperials. 100-150 sounds more fitting, considering rebels at worst just get a DB, or quite possibly walk away with MORE faction from killing thier scanner.


Also the possiblity of and imperial loosing a rank needs to be removed alltogether. Loosing6000 FP from one demotion is a game stoper for me.

Thunderheart already said this was changing.


But the question is, HOW WILL IT CHANGE?


I would really like to hear the final version of Imperial penalties.

lol - is that realy happening ? i might have to leave the empire and if the fee is to high go to the rebels.


I am looking forward to see the contraband system in action, because it does not sound like fun to me at all more like something realy anoying -i dont plan to use unsliced armor and weapon becaus of this.

We're hoping to have these exciting changes live within the next two weeks.





Two weeks?


What happened to the January publish?


It's bad enough that the Acts are now quarterly. Now we're gonna have quarterly publishes?
