I suggest they add Coruscant but with no NPCs to fight. Make it only triple the size for Coronet with meeting halls for guilds use and a Bazaar that allows you to sell things for as much as you want.

I dont care what anyone says... Korriban would make a wicked addition.
The darkside energy of the planet would make it prime for hunting Dangerous creatures and Various Darkside aligned Npcs

I believe the SWG engine does not render a whole city, just renders what you see, to me it seems like coruscent is highly possible, as the top of the buildings will probly not be rendered due of the viewing distance. And coruscent would be VERY cool.
Somewhere I believe it was stated by the Devs they Coruscant would not be included.
Besides, like many said, it would still be way too laggy. You're right about SWG not rendering everything at once, just what you see. But still, it would be way too much lag. I, like many, get lagged to death just by going to Coronet. The whole city of Coronet is not rendered, but I still get huge ammounts of lag. Imagine that, but ten times worse... I wouldn'teven be able to load in it.

Overall, I'd like to see Kashyyk. We need more forests.
I'd like to see the expansion (or a publish) advance the timeline a bit. We've been stuck in this period between ANH and ESB for a while now, and I think it'll add an interesting twist if you're able to talk to a high ranking Imperial and he mentions something about searching for the new Rebel stronghold after Yavin IV. Then, as a live event on all servers find a way to open up Hoth as a planet.

We need a gangster/BH/Smuggler/Cantina Owner hangout out in space so they should add Borgo Prime, a asteroid with tons if bars and the worst pirates, Bhs, and smugglers! that would be fun

I'd say for sure Hoth, not only would it be exceptionally sweet to visit, but it is the next location for the rebels to move to, if you're following the continuity. Besides that i think a space station would be awesome. something that would be a huge technological-looking establishment that would bring great variety to the game.

Devs already stated that Corscuant will not be in game
its far too hard to render ( maybe not but i doubt most can go to the planet )
as well it would be an almost useless planet
maybe a faction theme park and some theme park missions, but no player missions or player cities can be placed, there would be no points

OK I will compromise on Hoth, but I should add that it should be at least another year or year and a half BEFORE it goes live in the game. After all, there is about a 3 year gap if I am recalling the timeline correctly between ANH and ESB. And at the beginning of ESB the base on Hoth was just getting set up. This does remind me of another possiblity though, I don't know if I have seen mentioned.....Ord Mantel, it is after all one of the base locations prior to the move to Hoth.
