The red Star Destroyer was owned by a man named Booster Terrik. The only reason it was red was because he couldn't find enough paint in another colour. The name of the ship is Errant Venture. It wasa traveling bazaar of sorts. It was not part of the Imperial navy.



Please don't say that continuity has been completely thrown out with this game, because it has not. It has been stretched a bit in places, but not ignored completely.

i say leave the tie's alone, with one exception, each of the squadron should have some kinda of markings on there tie, a decal of sorts to show that they are part of that squadron, other then that all ties should be the same colour. The VT-49 i could see maybe haveing some sort of designs pained on it, nothing fancy just simple lines or areas painted black or lighter gray.


i will refuse to fly with anyone that wants a pink tie fighter. they should be shot on site by order of the emproer.

Black as a color scheme was always a good idea. My PvP ships as a webel pilot, they're all black. Espeically the A wing, makes it harder to distinguish which way the nose is pointing.

And then sony added those stupid boxes. Black is a moot point now.


Not if the black airframe prevents someone from seeing your orientation or direction.

You must not have a lot of Jedi on your server - on Kauri they have mass duels in front of Theed Starport. Sine their names are not "Luke Skywalker" and "Darth Vader" I'd say yes, continuity has completely gone out the window.

Continuity has been completly disregarded, it's blatently obvious. It's all part of SOEs great plan to drive out the potential long-term, mature, Star-Wars fan playerbase and bring in a short-term, 'I-win', 'leet' playerbase.

But that dosen't mean we should go killing it off more just for the hell of it. The Imperial Army is all about getting rid of someones identity. Every stormtrooper, every TIE pilot, every technician... all of them look the same. It gets rid of these peoples humanity, turning them into killing machines. Expendable killing machines.

NO WAY


Tie fighters are the imperial navys finest ships and part of the imperial military. NO customization for Tie fighters, dont be so silly. make Ace pilot and get yourself a KSE firespray and paint that what you like, or drop Imp pilot.


Personally id rather you drop imperial pilot.


If they ever added the ability to paint Imperial armor or ships, then i hope that if you did, you isntanly get flaged as an overt rebel in space and on the ground and was open to attack from both imperial and rebels.
