TH-
I understand that we can only have 3 ships in our datapad. Does the Yacht count towards this limit? I don't see the harm in having it as a fourth, since it cannot attack and cannot be attacked.
What say you?

TH, it would help if you cleared up the limitation with the Yacht.
Does furnishing the Yacht mean
But if it stops you from using any other MPV at all, I have to agree that this will be barely used at all, or only by crafters. That's a pity given the gorgeous artwort that went into it. And while I'm glad to see a benefit for crafters, it's not much reward to a non-crafter who has been a paying subsciber since launch.

Hay TH one idea is just to have restrictions on the ship like only having low level weapons on the ship but allow good shilds, and have no missles. Customizeing is just part of the fun of JTL. Restrictions on the level of the weapon would be grate because it would push for crafters to make low level stuff that is good so it may help out the starter pilots so that it ust soesn't get to where it is only vet stuff on the market.

You just can't have like a 60-day break and expect to get it.You qualify - - we allowed for things like that when we coded the veteran flags...not a lot, but just enough for people who ran into situations like this.
So... someone that started 6 months ago and played 6 months straight is a veteran. But I'm not a veteran because I started playing last July and have played for a total of 11 months just with a couple breaks so I don't have 6 consecutive months.
That doesn't make a whole lot of sense, but oh well... I'll just have to wait till January 11 to get my reward.

i can see why everyone is fussing about this. And i personally am upset but i was thinking about this i have two accounts so i have my crafter who will quite enjoy this gift and will only keep this one then i have my fighter who i will have a attack mp. My problems solved. i do hope they do something about this though cause i think if you leave one with items and one without they both should be launched seeing how both don't have items in it only one does. i think this is the way the devs should be heading. example the luxury yatch as a house and full of stuff and the other mp as a attack craft having no stuff in it. Both these crafts should be launchable. seeing how the one craft furnished is there and the other is not and i belive this would solve alot of issues with the people and moving items around all the time. but leaving both empty is also an option which i think none of us would enjoy.

Theres a video showing jedi duelling so must be able to. I'd assume it must have hperdrives. Think all ships will.

TH, is this ship just one per account or one per veteran character? I have 2 characters on the same account on different servers. I would like to have one of these for each character as they have both been in the game for over a year andare equally as deserving, IMO. Any chance of this happening, or will one character get screwed over in favor of the other character?

It can do nothing but look pretty ... but it cannot be decorated or you cannot launch your ship that can do something else. UTTERLY WORTHLESS!
only to you maybe...
i KNOW the entertainer community is going to rejoice over something like this. it is specificaly geared towards getting the noncombat types into space.
So a non-combat type would buy the $30 expansion just to fly in this? hahahahahahahahah
Hiya 
Little reminder to all the uber fighters and stuff....
The "non-combat types" built the Krayt T-21's you seem to enjoy, as well as the armor that you just got wickedly sliced(by a non-combatant), and the ships we'll be using to blow the enemy back into hyperspace
Not to mention all the physical and mental healing that tends to come with a badly planned incursion to the Corvette(guilty)

If I / we / they want to spend $30 bucks just to cruise around in an unbelivably kick a** piece of artwork...THEN LET US

ps- no offense to the smugglers regarding the "non-combatant" /poke... I am one....
Not counting templates, we're known for our slicing skills...not our ability to take out a herd of ravaging kreetles

TH i have a suggestion for dev team on shiip.. from what i hear everyone is quite upset that its not upgradeable. what if you made it upgradable but once its upgraded the ship looses its invulnerability thus making it an ordinary ship... with guns. this just seems like a simple solution to a complex problem with many people. although i could understand if this could have itsproblems with development,and then i dont beleive i saw you awnser if the ship has a hyperdrive.... but im guessing it does. and btw ^ good question
