I suppose this is jumping the gun a bit, but expansions take a long time to plan and it might be a good idea to think about this subject.





I think they have already got the next expansion planned, and I fully expect an announcement soon enough. I also fully expect most of the developers to move on to this next expansion and leave the ground game AND JTL rather lacking...


Though... Before we get the actual announcement, gamespot will probably have a movie or two with Haden Blackman stating what the next expansion is. Seems to be the way they do it.

The rumor I hear was "16 new planets". But I think it's a bogus rumor.


I would like to see some smaller adventure planets myself. (smaller in a zone size layout sense).

As long as the game is around I am 100% sure they will have more expansions. Look at EQ they have what? 15 damn expansions now. When I started EQ it wasnt half the size as it was luclin was just a pretty sky picture, the Vashir didnt exist, and lvl cap was 55. Now the world has tons more with 2 planets like 3-4 more races and lvl cap is 70 (or so I hear not 100% I havent played EQ in over a year)

After Yavin, the Rebel Alliance moved briefly to Corellia, then Hoth. They should be on Hoth by now if the timeline was dynamic.






Who says they won't be moving to Hoth in the near future?





Because if they moved, the Rebels would lose their themepark. So SOE would have to add Hoth to SWG, aswell as Snow Speeders, atmospheric flight,new NPCs and new mountsfor the Battle of Hoth itself. These would take many months to build, nevermind test or impliment.

Yeah, that does sound a bit bogus. Too many planets for one expansion. I mean... We didn't even get that many in the original.


The main thing I would like to see are the different home planets for the SWG species, with Kashyyk, Ryloth and Mon Calamari as the top ones. I would also like to see some expansion to the current planets, I really miss the early days when there was nothing but sand and a few sporadic houses/harvestors in the wasteland between bestine and Jabbas Palace. Now it's an urban wasteland.
