im not sure, i think thats where your ship zones in though, around a space station, i could be wrong though.. i also think thats where you get them repaired, but again i could be wrong, no idea what purpose factional space stations would have though

From what I've read, you can dock at space stations to repair your ship, get a mission or oher stuff.

- I support the CU and am grateful that we have a game that continues to evolve rather than stagnate. Join the positive voices!

We have heard that there will be three types of space stations : Imp,Reb,Neutral? Will space stations become the new hangout place like the cities did on the planets! People waiting around to form groups to do missions, with some people spamming night and day trying to sell you something? I hope not!Maybe there will bestores and garages are repair shops?What do you think the space stations will be like?

For right now they are static. You cannot dock with them or enter them in any way. It is likely they will add space stations we can enter with a later patch.

Stakex is correct. Right now the Stations only serve as faction centers for the sectorsas well as more high end content possibly. For instance you have a mission to assault or defend a station from pirates, rebels, or imps. They may also be used to repair to some extent your ship parts in space so that you don't have to land.

I believe I read somewhere that the stations will be for repairs and to get back to the planet from your ship but you wont be able to walk around in them or anything at least not on release.

Killed by Darth SOE's NGE light saber.. but I am more powerful now than they could possibly imagine..

the correct term would be space station images

"Flying against Tycho was probably the most difficult thing I'd ever done, and I had an edge in the Force. What he did, what Wedge did, without being able to use the Force made them far more special than any Jedi. They flew with their heart and brains and their entire being."

So there has been a lot of speculation as to what Space Stations and orbiting platforms and what not are going to do in the game. I know that it has been said that you cant physically "dock" at them, but you can repair your ship and get back onto planets using them... Now, are there going to be rouge or pirate NPC platforms and stations, and maybe NPC raids against space stations and docking by Rebels into Imperial stations? I would LOVE to see Stations gun's blaring away and hitting a Corvette and shuttles attempting to land on them...it would add a whole new sense to the game, and would make it very interesting to me.

If there are going to be maybe city or guild owned stations in the future, why not make them boardable, or maybe make some kind of Droid-like merchant station where you can sell your stock and supplies? I know loot is awesome from what ive heard, and that there will be plenty to go around, so people are going to need to sell them somewhere besides the ground...

Im not sure how ship to ship trade or communication is going to work, so speculate on what you guys think about this and the stations.....lets talk about something other than beta

I would like to see space stations playing a major role in the future... but as for player controlled stations? OH GOD NO.... before you know it youll have 300 space stations cluttering up the space around Corecant.... player cities are bad enough.

I was thinking exactly that, I dont want player owned, I want guild owned, and say a limit of 10,000 KM between them or something..

will we be able to dock into a space station and walk around just need someone to sum it up
