just wondering if anyone else thinks this should be added, the planet is fried at this point in the story but the system itself is there since well even the empire cant destroy a sun. they could add some interesting mining in what used to be a planet.

It would also be an interesting counterpoint to the ground-only ghosts and lava expansion.
Heck, maybe we could run missions for Bail Organa's corpse. How cool is that?™

I'd like to see some systems added in for sure, but Alderaan isn't one of them.
If we, as players, had to vote on systems to be added in, I think Hoth and Coruscant would be rating on top of the list. Other planets that I think most would like to see developed would be Geonosis, Iridonia, Ithor, Korriban, Malachor and/or Mandalore, Mon Calamari, Nal Hutta, Ord Mantel, Rodia, Ryloth, Bothawui, Sullust, and Trandosha. You'll noticed I mentioned every home-world of the species currently in SWG in that list.....
Alderaan doesn't strike me as "exciting", but the other planets in the list certainly entertain possibilities.
Its too bad that Mustafar is part of the new expansion - SWG Devs and LucasArts are most certainly trying to capitolize on the recent movie for this expansion, but there are so many other planets that are "icons" of the SW universe that are crying out for attention. Mustafar certainly isn't one of them.

I agree with both... All the home systems of the Player Races should be a given... Hoth would be great... but Alderran would be equally as great.
What I envision for the key to making Alderran not dull, is making it home to a massive debris field where the asteroids can actually destroy your ship (and NPC ships)... place where there is no station or planet to go to, but a capital ship for each faction. End result is a dangerous GCW PVP haven with exceptional mining and true risk, where when you die, you actually clone at your last clone station register... not in space.
Hoth's Asteroid belt should/could be in the same vein...

maybe not as an expansion but alderan can be a battle zone with all the asteroids and make them be able to destroy you, cause wouldnt it be fun to just weave through a huge amount of asteroids and trying to be careful cause now its boring you can just fly into the asteroid at full speed and you bounce off, it would be cool to see like npc's flying into asteroids or you could loose missles like that.
