Big fan of the YT series so mark me down for the YT-2400 and YT-2000. Also think the Carrack-Class Cruiser would be cool.

I've been around long enough to see most of the SW fans stomp off in a huff. And that's a shame. Because the one certainty, the only certainty, about SWG is that it's the only graphical commericial MMO based on the Star Wars licence. That's a potentially huge captive audience of folks who don't give a flip about EQ2 or WoW. Unfortunately because of the sheer sloppiness or short-sightedness, and I don't chalk alot of these decisions up to 'fun' - 'fun' takes alot of forms which SWG seems to have somehow missed along the way, they've alienated that community. I'm still around because I don't think there's a uniform body of folks making all the decisions here. Along with the melieu anomolies and utterlycontradictory design choicesabout alot of things, I also see the huge amount of love put into the visualizations, the depth of options in character customization, the value of ownership of property and even territory through player cities. There's real unprecidented depth and immersion in crafting and surveying, not to mention medicine and entertainment (though both of these could use a little more tweaking and improvement). And there are some visionary choices in how skills work and relative power levels of characters.
So I'm not quitting Star Wars Galaxies, I'm just hoping it comes to its senses. And trying to lean in the right direction when it comes to JtL is just another step. I'm too old to throw fits and get in tizzies when things don't go my way. Rather I constantly evaluate my investment. $15/mo is an ante to see if the devs eventually get this thing right. So far, and in no small part thank to my enjoyment of JtL, I'm still in. Hit me.

Every ship from X-Wing
Every ship from X-Wing - B-Wing
Every ship from X-Wing - Imperial Pursuit
Every ship from Tie Fighter
Every ship from Tie Fighter - Defender of the Empire
Every ship from Tie Fighter - Enemies of the Empire
Every ship from X-Wing vs. Tie Fighter
Every ship from X-Wing vs. Tie Fighter - Balance of Power
Every ship from X-Wing vs. Tie Fighter Flight School
Every ship from X-Wing Alliance
Every mission from the above games, including the training simulations. If I can hack XvT to include all ships and missions from the previous games, LucasArts can too. Want my scripts to do this SOE???

...so u see SWG never, or really rar,folow the rules of the Movies or the EU. why? because it's a game and they have to break the rules for the fun of the Game.
Since i can't edit my massage (lol what stupid Forum is this) I just quote my self
what I mean with, they break the rules for the fun of the game, is just what SOE always answer, it's not mine, I mean i do care about continuty etc... I don't want to see 1mio Jedi like it's now, I don't want to see 1Mio Slave1, or Rebel Station 2km away from Imp station, I want to see a blockade over endor and Dathomir, I want to see a balance between melee and ranged weapon etc......
Like i said many times before the SOE team don't have any plan. I just have seen the answers of the music designer: so they know that the swoop, ATST sound are false, so why don't change it??? it's just a matter of changing a sound file nothing else...
I want just that a DEV read the folowing link and give me a comment of this:
read-me

Lambda Shuttle and the related Sentinal craft for Imperials.
More non-faction class MP ships.
And a slight speed/handling increase on the Sorosuub Yacht. I really enjoy the layout of the ship, it's beautifully done, but she steers like a brick and moves like a hungover Bantha.

Well, at least we got some people voting within the timeline now. lol
Seriously though, if this were my thread I wouldn't even list the ships that are out of the timeline. But it's not... it's your call.

ya if you read about those ships you would realize that some of them havent been created yet in OUR SWG timeline lol do your research first plz
You mean, like the TIE Interceptor? Which was introduced shortly before the Battle of Endor? Or maybe the TIE Advanced? Of which there was only 1, which was the basis for the TIE Avenger, that should exist in this timeline, which later was replaced with said Interceptors? What about the TIE Oppressor? The TIE Decimator? The TIE Aggressor? None of these ships even EXIST. How about the HUTT Fighters and the "Black Sun" fighters? Those don't exist either. If you're going to come on here and say that some of the proposed ships can't be in the game because they weren't made within this timeline, you might want to do your own research first before telling other people to do it. SOE has already blown continuity and canon out of the game with the themeparks,(You should not be able to encounter Leia, Luke, Han, or Vader, as they are running all over the galaxy playing tag, and wouldn't be sitting around in some place waiting to give loyal followers missions.), most of the ships in the game, the Jedi...
The argument of "within this timeline" has been shot down by SOE's decisions long ago.

The N-1 OBVIOUSLY!
Any of the Rebel ships. Besides the V-Wing. If I remeber right they were strictly atmospheric craft. Like the Snowspeeder.
Many of the Imp ships. Would love to see some TIE D's up there.
Variations of the YT ships also...

MusicManZarick, I personly have no problem with SOE creating new ships to put into this game. After all, that's what everything outside of the movies has done is create new things. I do, however, have a problem with their putting things in out of cronological order. That includes, but not limited to, all of the suggestions here in this thread and everything that is already in game that doesn't belong.
I honestly don't understand why it is that when someone objects to a new idea because it doesn't fit with the timeline some people have to immediately retort with what is already in there that doesn't belong. Just because it's already in the game and we didn't happen to mention it doesn't mean that we don't have a problem with it.
