Thread: New Planets

Yup, there's no smart reason to put in anymore planets, the playerbase is stretched thin as it is, and will probably just continue this way as we get new members and they make their own cities, or just live in their house somewhere, or no house at all. I doubt we'll ever see the old days again, my friends...
Well...it really depends on what planet(s) they wish to add. Perhaps a planet with one outpost or something...Hoth...only accessible by Rebels.
Can't think of one for the Imperials...
Maybe Nar Shadaa or something for Neutrals...
It's just an idea. Something new is what I'm aiming for.
JTL is just a space expansion. They'll be more publishes and so on...and they'll be another expansion way down the road.
It's Star Wars, people...the opportunities are endless.

Here are a few planets which I hope will appear in the Star Wars Galaxies in future expansions and publications:
1.) Hoth
2.) Dagobah i dont think this could work, pretty much the whole point of yoda going there was because nobody else was there... and because of some sith grave that hides his force signiture from vader and palps
3.) Bespin not enough area, its a gas planet. i guess you could do a cloud city zone. make it a huge gambling/gaming place. kinda like the golden saucer in FFVII
4.) Coruscant this would be so awesome... but only if it could be done well. to do it well, ... just themassive scale of itall..millions ofpeople, and buildings, different levels, ...i dont think it can be done.
5.) Kashyyyk
6.) Kamino kind of a similar deal with bespin. but this place isnt notoroius for gambling n stuff.
7.) Geonosis
And of course after Episode 3 comes out next May, maybe down the road these planets could also appear in the game:
1.) Utapau
2.) Tantiv IV
3.) Mustafar (Anakin & Ben's ultimate duel and were Anakin becomes Vader via lava pit)
With all of these planets, of course, you must have more space sectors for everyone to travel around. I do agree with some of the posts that I have read. The planets and moons should have a 3-demensional look for ships to orbit around and fly in between. Now, I know I'm asking for allot but this would make the game more enjoyable and adventureous for everyone. As long as the Devs keep improving and adding content, I can guarantee that they will have thousands of loyal and new subscribers for years to come.
Of course, what I just mentioned is just a tip of the iceberg. I haven't included new species, creatures to fight and kill, plots, weapons, armor, ships and lets not forget extending the sizes of the current planets for us to explore around in.
Well I think I'll step off of my soap box and hopefully hear back from the rest of the Star Wars Galaxies Community and most importantly, the Devs themselves.
*Ciao*
are you talking about just adding these planets as space zones? if thats the case its probably doable i guess. but if you were suggesting they add them as ground game planets i think that the only ones that could be done would be kashyyk, hoth (as a rebel ONLY planet) and geonosis.
but im with ya, id be nice to stick some more planets in here, to spread the lag out a bit. dantooine is rediculous.
Corrusant space could be flodded with ships of all kinds, freighters, fighters, transports, whatever. Although that sounds nice..Corrusant is a little to much..imagine the lag on the planet and in the space around it.
Wouldnt be much on Bespin...Cloud City and thats it...other than that just a few gas platforms.
Dagobah.....ehhhh...
Kamino has nothing much for us either really. This was brought up in a earlier post that turned into a couple idiots arguing over if water craft exist in Starwars. And the only thing we know about it is its where the Clone's for the Republic are created. Not sure if Kamino appears in the EU.
Hoth is what everybody wants, and so do I....but...what would really be there? Would the Devs really add this whole planet for just a small, single Rebel base? And if so..where would that leave Imperial players? Wouldnt make sence to let them go there, since the Rebels on Hoth havnt been discovered yet.( Would have to advance the GCW before Hoth is added) And until then...make this a Rebel only planet.
Now...Kashyyyk...we all know about the Empire enslaving the Wookies blah blah. This planet has potential as well. The massive endless jungle, Vilages way up in the treetops, unknown creatures down at the base of the trees....stuff like that. Make this an Imperial only planet..as the Rebels have Hoth.
And for the planets in Episode III...i dont see a reason to add them. Anakin gets owned by Obi-wan on Mustafar....thats it, preety much all we know. Remember im not taking the EU into account here.
People seem to always overlook alot of planets, and just jump to ones weve seen in the new movies. What about Tralus? We have Correlia and Talus, why not put in Tralus? The war between Tralus and Talus natives has been going on for decades, much content hidden there. Add more content to Talus, and toss in Tralus, and there is more potential there then most people think.
And lonely Rori..../sigh.
I say beef up the current planets before any new ones are added. Just my overall opinion, even though i would LOVE to see more planets added. Good post GehreeSlosti, the most reasonable post on new planets ive seen so far.

Your not following your own advice, why should we?
