Has anyone noticed that they play intercom sounds in starports?
Ive been standing around and have heard about 3 different messages, if
in fact I am not going crazy, this is a very good turn of events for the
immersion factor. We know that they arent using most of their sound
resources, and if this is a start to the contrary, then bravo!

What do they say? I can't get in because I'm at work, do droids say them? Ingame messages? Humans or aliens?
Really curious..

No he means in starports there is this announcer voice that comes on over the intercom sayings things that you might hear at an airport or something lol like "Make sure all your droids have restraining bolts" and "Please put away all weapons and explosives" its immersive and highlarious!

Yeah I think its really cool, let me elaborate on what I heard, its not going to be
word for word, but I heard things similar to this...
"Attention passengers, cargo space is now available..."
"Security, code C-47....code C-47"
pretty cool immersive stuff like that, random chatter. Things like this are really
important in my opinion. What I think would be really awesome, especially since
we are in this whole new GCW thing, is to hear perhaps news on the Rebel vs
Imperial struggle.
There are plenty of other starport sounds, from what I have discovered through
message board threads, etc. Lines of intercom dialogue that announce the arrival
of a ship at a starport, where it came from, and its next destination.
I can say im very happy with the addition, and I hope they continue to add things
like this in.

I'm happy that the smaller city shuttles finally got their sound on. If I can make a suggestion though, it seems a bit heavy for such a small shuttle (uses the same sound as a major transport). I always pictured the small shuttle taking off to the sound of whiny repulsorlifts.
Two other sound-related issues I'd like to know:
-Did the AT-ST get its blaster sound fixed? (It was cross-linked with a cdef pistol sound by mistake a long time ago)
-Did the speeders get their sound fixed too?
Just curious 
I'd also like to give a big thanks to the entire team for all the nice game improvements in the last few months.

Yah, heard those last night! Loved it, made me sit in the port for a little while to listen to 'em. Kept waiting for one that said, 'The white zone is for immediate loading and unloading only, there is no parking in the white zone.'
'Course, doing the rest of the Airplane riff would probably get 'em in trouble
