Not for nothing its obvious he dosent have any droid programs. He dosent know how to play the game yet. Though he mentions other names this game actually takes a little involvement in creating your Ship and personalize it to your own specs.









Well that was arrogant. I've given more than a passing glance to JTL, my friend. I've used an astromech droid on my friends comp with his account. (My skill level isn't high enough to use a good astromech). As to personalizing my ship...It would help if there were any shipwrights left on Wanderhome, my current server.


So back to the POINT which is tha JTL is not fun. I beleive this is an opnion shared by many judging by A) The people IRL that I've spoken with and B) the fact that space is dead.


Not that I really care what you think but please try to stay on target. The involvement that you speak of is in getting gear for your ship. The "involvement" that I'm looking for is fun engauging missions. Two different things.








I wasnt trying to be arrogant. I agree that there is alot wrong with the JTL expansion. But one of them is not the Ships! It is content.


The ships when you have the right equipment, programs, and attitude can be fun. Its just not your type of game. It is just an observation that you did not get very far due to lack of proper equipment. I soloed up to 4,4,4,4 on the corsec neutral pilot. It was a pain but once you master pilot the ships feel so much better and the programs are awsome.


Its the content in this game that really sucks. I agree with that point but as for ships and having fun, you have to meet people, join groups of 4 to 5 people and about 15 for the corvett. Once the missions are over and there are no more missions there is just nothing to do. Space is dead. That is my point of veiw.


My thing is if you havent mastered the profession then you shouldnt blast the ships. Why? Because you havent actually witnessed the ships potential.


One last thing which you did mention.... The ships seem to move slow. Yeah this is true. If they could have only put in real planets you can fly around. It would have improved the feel for space in general.

i loved jtl when i first started playing it but its gotten a bit tedious now and doing the same stuff over and over gets boring after a bit. i often think they should bring ship docking into the game that way people could conduct raids on other ships (imagine a rebel nova courier filled with rebs docking with a imp mp ship) kind of bringing the ground game into space. also if the space stations were really dockable as well would be fun. jtl has a lot of potential just needs time for it to be implemented.
