ah, stickin' to the tried and true film classic ships.


too many people flock to the Jedi Starfighter now-a-days, but give me a good ol' flying tank and i'm happy.



ever since i was certified for the TIE bomber, it was the only ship i ever flew all the way to Ace, and i had no idea how useful droid commands were until i already hit Ace. i had actually never used a droid or flight computer until then.

just wanted to point out, it's nice to see that you red-names are hangin' out with us again. even just little posts like these, that don't really give any game-info are still really appreciated, and do help to show that you guys aren't out-of-touch with the community, even though there are lots of complainers around the boards.


just remember, one of the #1 concerns many of us have about the game is the lack of communication, as by putting yourself out here, and making yourself seem approachable about things does wonders for the image the devs give off to the player-base.


keep up the good work, and hopefully we'll get more Mustafar info soon.


i'm betting that if it's anything like Kashyyyk, if nothing else, Mustafar is going to be one REALLY good-looking planet.

Hey TH,

Was my question too long?
I was just wondering if you were going to TRY to find the answer(s) or if you did not approve of the question(s).

Let me know, because my Lawyers said that further negotiations are still possible.

At this point, I'm holding them off of you... but now Jabba has expressed personal interest in setting you up...
I can hold off Jabba only for so long...

Special tip for Thunderheart then:

You can open your datapad and double click your ship and see all the components inside the craft. Anywhere, anytime.
But only in front of a Starship Terminal you can Launch or remove / add / replace components.






Yes, but if you do that, you always get the current status of the components.


I tend to fly my ship like a bull in a china shop. After a couple of repairs (especially when its a station repair and not a shipwright repair kit), my components tend to be pretty hammered on.


I prefer to track the original condition of components so that when I replace the components, my ship is back at the original flight performance that I liked.


The way I do it is once I buy a new component, I pull up /notepad and enter in the stats. Then I take my ship up and do a little dog fighting. If I like they way she performs, then I keep the component (and have the original values tracked). If I don't like the way it performs, I ditch the part and take the data off ofmy component tracker.


Then after I've taken a pounding and need to replace my components, I look for replacement parts that have the same or better value than what I originally had. For that I need the original numbers and not the "current status" numbers that would exist on the display at that time (post-pounding )










Hey Thunderheart, glad to see you play the game and go in space. Maybe if you do some of the ROTW you'll realize the Y-8 mining quest needs to be fixed.


It's really starting to old, its a joke.

Here is my tip (even though its a LITTLE late)


Try RolePlaying.


You can get SOOOOOOOO much more out of the game if you pretend its real, not just a game. If you are interested in RP'ing, check out the RolePlaying Forum (Bottem of the "SWG Forums" page)


Good luck and May the Force be with you!
