After Publish 7, players will no longer be required to be in camps to pull out Vehicles, Mounts, Droids or Pets and can pull them out wherever they are, eliminating the player inconveniences of having to find rural areas far from cities, lairs and other no-build zones in order to build a camp. The basic rules of calling Vehicles, Mounts, Droids or Pets are: fficeffice" />



l There is a 15 second delay after you call for a vehicle/mount/pet/droid before it will generate.


l If combat occurs during that 15 second period, it will stop the call from completing.


l A player will not be able to call a vehicle/mount/pet/droid during combat for 30 seconds after combat is concluded.


l A player will not be able to call a mount/pet/droid while mounted or on a vehicle.


l Camps have retained their original vehicle/mount/pet/droid calling abilities so that either method can be used by players.

Did your vehicle/mount/pet/droid calling ability work properly?

Pulled a pet and vehicle in the wilderness...both times they appeared 15 seconds after I called them. No problems so far.

This is an awesome feature, so far the best scenario i have had with it was this mornign when i was dropping harvs and i accidentally dropped one on top of where my speeder was, thus not allowing me to mount it again. Before i would have had to run to the nearest city or flag down the first scout i saw(not a scout myself). But now i just stored it, and recalled it..........awesome

Yes, it works, and it has utterly changed the way I play the game already - in a good way. Vehicles can finally be used as effectively without scout.


No longer am browsing a vendor in a shop, running out in between page views and mounting/unmounting my vehicle to make sure it doesn't auto-store.


No longer am I discouraged from traveling somewhere, knowing that if I don't have time to get back to a city before I log out I'm stuck without transportation; I can finally visit a friends house, logout, and be able to travel home after.


The best change in recent memory.

I like thatI can still call things instantly when I'm in a city.


This does make camps even less useful, but that's anextremelyworthwhile tradeoff.
