I hope I can modify this heavily....
I want it to be my way for people/objects to avoid "Imperial entanglements"

Consecutive means that if you cancel your subscriptionand come back, you start over again. This is an incentive reward for continuously playing through to Jump to Lightspeed. In this case, "Veteran" means 6 months. If we add additional veteran rewards in the future, they may be shorter or longer in terms of time requirements.

You just guaranteed that a person who subscribed for a full year but was letting their account lapse until JTL will not be coming back for JTL. If you can't even bother to count those of us who stuck it out for a full year while you tried to make the game playable, then SOE and SWG doesn't deserve a second look from a big SW fan and an SWG player who went through a full year + betaof your game bugs, changes, and growth and tried to help improve the game through bug reports, feedback, and every avenue you give players.


Pretty pathetic customer relations.

WOW! I don't think i could have asked for a better veteran reward. The Yacht isn't my favorite ship, but I've always quite liked it. Having one will be a blast. Thanks a lot.


Inregards to custom modification, wasn't the blaster cannon actually a non-standard update installed by Lando? I'm certainly not complaining if we do get one, though

Yes it was, but I think the Devs will keep the visible weapons on it just so we aren't completly defenseless.

Ehh, its okay but I dont really see the significance since pretty much everyone who is subscribed now will get one anyway, or within a month of its release. How about some rewards that actually reward people for having been here for 6 months instead of trying to bribe people to stay another 6 months? I really don't like the idea that everyone will get it so long as they're willing to pay for 6 months straight , regardless of when they started playing. Is it really too difficult to come up with a new gift every 6 month aniversarry or so to reward players who have been subscribed for the past 6 months?

Also, I cast my vote towards either total months paid or 6 months since subscription. Why punish players that were willing to reward you for a second chance?

First, I am very happy with this announcement ... thank you.


A couple of questions:


1) Is this a multi-person ship?

a) If this is a Multi-person ship, how does the capacity compare to the YT-1300?

b) If this is able to hold cargo, how does the capacity compare to the YT-1300?


2) How do the combat abilities compare to the YT-1300 in both stock and modified conditions?


3) How do the combat (offensive and defensive) abilities compare to other combat vessels?


4) What Pilot-Skill do we need to fly it?

Vet rewards should go on the amount of time you have played not if you had to quit for one reason or another like the way UO had done it.

One reason people may have quit is because they got sick of broken professions and bugs which by the way has to do with the DEV's working to hard to bring people back by working on the last profession in the game namely Jedi.

All this game is about money because it was never rdy for release when they released it, they keep adding content while not fixing broken professions which by the way i know theyhave been broken since beta 3 and since alot people wanted to play jedi and hated the systems as it wasstarted to quit which means a loss of money i know lets fix that profession and bring all people back since we know full well those other fools will keep playing there broken professions.

I'm a master smuggler and i've been waiting for ages for them to fix that one but no lets wait till after JtL as is always the story, and as for my subscription being cancelled for about a month because i got sick of all the bugs and broken profession and nowto findout because of this and the time i had put into the game before that means nothing you can jam this game where it fixes
