If you grab the developer interview you get Haden talking with the same video feed in the background as in the trailer.

I liked the interview, not as informing as I would like but hey any information is good information, right?

He did mention "space stations" (or "installations"?)...


What I wonder is....


Whether or not they will be able to be boarded by players and, if so, if these will be the 'floating hotel/casino/cantina' type places that I'd love to hang out in.

There are concept pics for Imp, Rebel and neutral space stations.

How useful are droids in the Expansion?
Droids are very important to your ship. They are how you interact with your ship. In fact, the space UI includes a droid tab to give your droid commands.

"Can I decorate my ship?
Everything you can do in houses, in the way of furniture and decoration, can be done in ships."


"Can I walk around inside the YT-1300?
YES!"


WO-FRICKIN'-OT!


Seriously. If this is true, then any fear I had about the space expansion is lost. As long as I can fly around space inside my ship and make it my second home via decoration/customization, I am one happy camper.

"Preshow Impression"...


That means they haven't seen it yet. That article was three paragraphs of recap and one paragraph of "I wonder..."

Yea...I know. But they at least have a bit of updated video available.


Nothing really earth shattering, at this point. It's just encouraging to see the information flow starting.


Before long, I'll be shooting down all those naughty Imp robots and 'aces' (I use that term loosely).


Space hath no fury like a Rebel Wookiee with a bad case of mange.
