Atmospheric flight is a long way off if it ever comes.

OMG, yes...that would be awesome! Even atmospheric battles to supplement the PvP raids or Faction base raids. Could you imagine getting ready for PvP against the opposite faction and hearing Ties/X-wing engines looming in the distance... ?:smileysurprised:

the most we could get is upper atmosphere so you cant see the players on the ground, but perhaps you would be able to target bases while they are vulnerable and use some spacebombs on the turrets.

I think this is exactly the reason why they won't do it. Too many complaints, too much opertunity for griefing.

This will not happen unless they change the ground combat to twitch based as well.

Space and Ground are ment to be far away from each other. We can't even get them to give us Force Sensitive exp.

Leave this idea for Star Wars Galaxies 2. By that time computers and servers will be able to handle it. I say wait till 2008 to see Star Wars Galaxies 2. Random guess =)
