The YT-2400 actually has been in the game since the time of JTL, well... parts of it that is.

Obviously, everyone knows the 3d model for the lambda has been in the game since launch,
along with the X-Wing, Tie fighter and Tie bomber.

See. there's tons of UNUSED stuff in this game.

2 planets.
3 professions. "Juggler" anyone?!?!?!
for a long time there were lots of unused guns and such.

One of the things I like is that there are all the sound effects for taun-tauns and nerfs,
I even think the models are in game as well.

Yet, the only Nerf Herders I see are my guildmates on bria!

I wont say how this is found out, since well, I like having my 2 1/2 yr old SWG account,
but if you know where to look you'll find the program. There are plenty of websites that show screenshots if you dont want to run the program yourself.

If I had to guess I'd say theres probably about 3 additional games worth of unused stuff in SWG,
and a lot of it is pretty damn cool.

I hope so, but let me tell you I would like some forward firing turrets so you can still fly the thing solo.

Looks cool... does nothing that the YT-1300 doesn't already.

Alot like this new expansion.

Gah, the 2400? Theres nothing great about it. It's just a smaller 1300. They could use some creativity.

If it is this ship I would like it to be implemented properly: Let there be at least1 forward firing turret, with the option to let people control it. I still don't understand the reason they haven't allowed this on current POB ships. My YT-1300 is pretty much useless for solo combat, and not much more use when I have people on board hard to cooridate attacks between my piloting and people firing.

I think the program name is InsideSWG, all I saw were screenshots so no idea on how to get it.

A lot of the stuff that's been "recently" added

(Trophies, etc.) has been in the game almost since launch.

I saw a ton of cool stuff on those screenshots, and I'm hoping that even mentioning it isn't grounds for a vacation in banland.

I agree with people who say that YT-2400 will not be used. Just like the majority of POIs and items in SWG few dedicated SW fans like myself will have and fly it for RP purpuses. Others will fly it once and deed it. If you doubt my words look at JSF, ARC-170, all POB ships, AV-21, POIs etc.

Sometimes I think the Devs get a real kick out of giving us a teeny bit of information, then watch us all squabble as we try to decipher it. Evil indeed...

It says on the starwars website that it DOES have forward firing guns. I think it really needs this in game to be unique, otherwise it's just a re-skinned YT-1300.

Look at the last paragraph, it talks about the turrets and the ability to use them from the cockpit.
