Your vehicles cockpit would come with a "dismiss" button that would make your vehicle drive itself into the sunset, never to be seen again.

49. You could build the ability for your vehicle to say things like, "Your door is a jar" and "Please fasten seatbelts", but it would never actually say anything. Furthermore, putting the talkie chip into the vehicle would fill up the whole trunk so that you couldn't carry anything.

49. To put anything in the trunk, the DE would need to add the storage module. This would make other modules broken, and would only allow for 1 item to be stored anyways. Higher level mods could hold more, but would be nerfed eventually so that only1 type of item could be stored in it anyways (much like data mods). Once you finally got a "Trunk" mod that could hold a decent amount of items, no one would care anymore.


50. Crafting the fuel for the vehicle would only grand general crafting exp, while crafting parts for another profession to use still manages to grant droid exp (if it ever even came out of the hopper).

52) If you DID manage to get a working voice module into your vehicle, it would have many misspellings:


"Where you be waintin' to go?"

52) All vehicles would require 47 identical factory components in lots 13.

53.) When the DE's get to the point where they can make a decent sized ship with adequate firepower, the devs realize they have once again knocked things out of balance. To solve the problem, they create a planet sized meteor with a humougous slug inside that can be tamed by CH to eat planets. Then, balance is restored.

54) However, in the interest of balancing things before the giant-slug infested meteor is ready, ships will be reduced to 75 damage every 45 seconds, with all shielding disabled. Simultaneously, vehicle perma-death will leave thousands of travellers stranded in the hard vacuum.

29. Each vehicle would accelerate at an incredible rate, and be able to travel across any planet within 2 minutes. Only problem is that to get off at any point you would have to leap from the vehicle, thus causing 10,000 damage points to your HAM bar and completely destroying your armorand weapons (remember you are barrel rolling for 500 meters). The vehicle would then careen off and crash,returning to your datapad.


After you are cloaned, you will have to return to the scene of your deathto pick up all your stuff, because it is scattered across the countryside from your contact with the ground.Insuring your items didn't help, sincetheyhad to be on your person when you died. You can't use your vehicle to go back to the scene, because it's HAM bar was zeroed out and it will take six hours to get to the point where it can be repaired. To fix the vehicle you will have to employ a Master Chef (which only make no sense what-so-ever).


That is the SOE way.

61ish


Vehicles must be tamed by a CH since it will end up being pulled around by a Bantha anyway.


62ish


Devs will realize it might be too much fun to play DE and some of the thunder is gone from the CH, so they let Novice CH use Kimo as mounts.


63ish


You can "call" your speeder inside the Cantina, but not at an Outpost

Jedi will never be a starting profession...Looted items and quest items will never be better then crafted items, this is not a loot based game...CH will return shortly...CH and BE will not be back in game...Rangers are getting their revamp next!...The stealth system will not be changing in the spy expertise...Need any more examples of things the devs said that did not hold true?

64. Swoop bikes can't be used to swoop (whatever that means). Land Speeders are slow and can only be used on water.

I guess I don't understand. Since I'm both a Chef and a master artisan.



Buy my GP moduals (book)ers!


Stay away from the food though, it buggs your secondary stats and the only way to 'fix' it is to slay yourself... an option we don't have.
