I know city planets are out of the question like Coruscant, Nar Shaddaa etc hoth is empty as is dagobah. Im thinking they should put a planet like Klatooine or Mon Calamari in.







Mon Cal would be hard, since most of it is all water....

Hi all, its my first post, and hope not the last, lol....


I think a great new planetideawould be a water planet, similar to Mon Calamarilike in Clone Wars,Kamino or Manaan in KOTORsomething which hadsay islands and floatingcities, even underwaterones. As for Coruscant thats a definate must have, but would I guess be the central hub for all imperial ventures, and rebels would havehidden resistance cellsscattered about the planet,that would alsobe the greatestfor atmospheric combat fly inbetween the buildings....though unlikely methinks

Guys, those of you who are saying no new planets. Im just asking people what planets they think would be neat to have in the game. I know devs will eventually add 1 or 2 in a patch in months or years who knows. But im just asking what new planets you think would be cool here.


I came up with a few more ideas too.


I think for the ships, here are the ships that arent mentioned that i'd think be fun to use ingame


Z-95 fighter Y-wing t16 Skyhopper


And perhaps for flying, is there going to be a exp system. Like Pilot profession for new people and they get like a t16 skyhopper rental device after doing the quests? and They can gain exp to become Cargo Freighter Pilot Fighter Pilot Passenger Pilot and i dunno, somthing like. Smuggling Pilot. I know these ideas are really crappy. Just thought i'd ask, hopefully no flaming, im sure i'll get some though.

ok really though..... and its not just you so dont take it personally........ but do people even read the FAQ or anything else on JTL before they post? this is the 20th or higher time in the last 2 weeks that i have seen people ask about the simplest or most talked about stuff in JTL, or ask "will this be in?". maybe, read the FAQ or go to SWG vault and see.or "we should put this in it would be cool". yeah it might be cool, but half of them have already been confirmed and the other half have are either stuff they would never put in or have been confirmed NOT in JTL.

one of Lukes students was a princess. he name was like Tenel Ka or something like that...wait...that was from the hapes system.


i think im wrong.


but i DO remember reading about it. somewhere.




Both are right, lol, Tenel Ka is orignally from Dathmoir, her Mother, (forgot her name, could look it up but dont fell like it:smileyhappy, Married the Prince of the Hapes Cluster, ( forgot his name to /sigh), but anyway, during the NJO book series, Telen's mother dies and she becomes the Queen Mother of the Hapes Cluster. There you have it, everythign you wanted to know about Tenel Ka.

not true. the devs said highly unlikely but it is in there Top 10 list of things they want in the game.

I would like to see Nal Hutta, with themoon NarShaddaa. Rather than having wild creatures they could have the Smugglers moon full of Pirates,Swooper NPC's instead. It could be a good place to add more Bounty Hunter and Smuggler content. Perhaps a good place to get your new ship tuned or a place to pick up that illegal engine you were always after.

What about Ord Mantell? It's mentioned in the movies and according to the EU its some kind of luxury gambling planet. This could be a very entertaining planet to live on!

My personal opinion (and I realise that they aren't putting planets in yet)is that the best planets to put in would be:Selonia, Ithor andGeonosis. Here's why:


Selonia: this would make an interesting change for the devs. On Selonia, no point of land is more then two hundred and fifty kilometers from water, and no point of water is more then two hundred km from land. In short, it is completely full of islands - new when compared to all the other planets. According to Han Solo, there may be large monsters living in the oceans - and not all the islands are completely urban. This would make another "civilized planet" like Corellia or Naboo, with the added twist of sea monsters.


Ithor: this would be veryinteresting from a gameplay perspective. As far as I remember, Ithor is the planet where there are no cities on the surface, but all the cities glide above the planetary forests on repulsors - in and of itself an oppertunity for some very cool stuff. The surface is completely untamed and wild, completely forested. The Ithorians find it sacrilege to set foot in their forests, but let's just say that the Empire won't let them do anything about it.


Geonosis: a pure advanced planet here. Wild things escaped or set loosefrom the Geonosians' arenas roam everywhere, and the Geonosians themselves are/would bequite dangerous. This could perhaps be a planet where there is a high concentration of Trade Federation remnants (like somethatcan be found on Naboo).



The reason that only astromech droids should be able to enhance ships... Think of a protocol droid:
"Oh, we're doomed!"
"I can't say how much I hate space travel!"
"The odds of surviving a direct assault on an Imperial Star Destroyer..."
"This is all your fault!"
"But sir!"

Well, if they decided to include every planet ever mensioned in the Star Wars Universe, it would be cool, and it would also be cool if when this happened, they merged maybe a few servers together to make it so theres enough people on each planets lol


Also, if the devs could add planets that was possible to fly round (maybe Hoth, so we could have the battle of hoth) and land also, if we where on hoth, we could go hunting the wompa ice creatures

Ord Mantell is a giant scrap heap with some sleazy towns and a abandoned, looted Republic Ordanance Base.

Each "planet" is 10 miles by 10 miles i think

given this information 10 x 10 equals 100 square miles

u think about urself modeling 100 square miles of F**king city space


Said by some idiot Nabooian pilot "Corescant, the entire planet is one giant city"


they will NOT do this


Degobah i can understand but it'll just be another Rori where everyone tries to find Yoda

he probably wont say much


here's a question

Where are the Tusken raider raids into Cities and mass killings of people?

where are the storm trooper raids of various cities and mass killings of people

Where the hell are the interesting spur of the moment real life action things that happen

U can sit in coronet for years and not see a damned thing happen. CONTENT devs

have each CSR scheduled to do something cool for each city once a week =)
