Thread: Y-8 such a huge disapointment
lol
and why when you are sat on the seats does it look like you are astride an animal, most undignified!
also, is there a thread where we can see how to set up the ship and which guns the laser and beam should be loaded into etc etc
can the ship be flown by one person, obviously, yes but can you mine by yourself?

If you want to mine solo, use a fighter. The Y-8 is a multi-person ship.
Windows have been fixed havn't they now? If not, I'm sure they will be soon. /shrug.
Personally, I always preffered a good old Nova because they 1. Look kinda like a winged tortoise and 2. Its the only POB I can profess to knowing my way around faultlessly. (Ina YT I tend to simply run in circles 
).
I reckon I'm going to try hitching a ride on a POB later with my friend to help him level up. I don't usually help grind other people's xp but this guy is a dude so I'll make an exception. Plus, I'm trying to convince my guild to keep a manned POB patrolling Deepspace during peak time. They're certainly skilled enough to make that happen effectively.

When you put a tractor beam in a Y-8, it fires from every gun position. It's actually kinda handy. Put it in the pilot's slot (Weapon 2), put elite mining lasers in all the turrets, grab some friends, the pilot hits the 'activate tractor beam' command (needs to be keymaped), and all the turrets have tractor beams and mining lasers.
Yes i do feel better ty. It still does not change the fact that this game is getting worse and worse every time they change something.
Instead of bringing forth new content lets fix what's broken first. I like new things as much as anybody but there comes a time when you have to stop and look and realize that "hey we got lots of broken things here we need to fix". Our players are unhappy we are loosing a lot of people because the game is so nerfed. to prove the point i am mayor of a city and we have 62 citizens in our city but only about 7 people play now. They still come on teamspeak they just don't play swg they have moved on to better games. We have to realize that new content is only a quick fix for getting new players. ROTW is a good example everyone flooded to Kashyyk when it came out and did all the quests and got all the loot they could and now it's pretty much dead when i go there now for something which isn't very often. I think it would be smarter to keep the players we have now especially the vet players. Then maybe we can work on getting some new players. I think one way to do both is bring Hoth into the game. People have been asking for Hoth since day one. Maybe have AT-ST that can be destroyed and imperial walkers. Of coarse the rebel base would be a must. This is my personal favorite, Wampa hunting and maybe some Wampa caves but again lets fix what's broken first especially the Y-8.
