Well since Tiggs has come out today to say they're focusing on tidying up issues for the game and various professions, is there any hope for getting easy pilot fixes? I know things like WO3 are always on the list, but the one I'm thinking of is lag......
since ROTW and mining came out, a lot of systems are heavily laggy with all the new asteroid content. I drop below 10 fps in the asteroid field around dantooine doing T4 black sun duties sometimes.The game also hangs for half a moment whenever you blow up a ship or get a /comm window pop up.
Do you think you could push them to either disable or toggle-fy the comm windows entirely? /toggleCombatTaunts doesnt eliminate them all. Keep the comms inspatial chat, just eliminate the graphics for everything that isnt a dialog (like when you /comm stations and have choices of responses)
And areduction (maybe a UI slider bar?) in space "eye candy"likedense asteroid fields and those (horrible!) nebula lightning arcs that gum down everyone's graphics card would really help slicken up dogfights and help my accuracy. If they ever do fix WO3 that'd be more important than ever

I would kill to be able to get rid of those damnable nebulas.
Fixing the "no medals for females" bugs would be nice, too.

There's actually a slider for nebula density under CTRL-O. It is working, but even all the way down the red nebulas in Endor and Dathomir space lag like crazy. The lighting is the most annoying thing since Greedo shooting first though. NERF TEH LIGHTNING!!!11!!!
Seriously, nebulas are HUGE balls of gas and particles, much larger than a solar system, it makes no sense for them to be in a planetary system. For one thing any stray particles would have been pulled into any neaby gravity well.

Nah, the top 3 annoying things list works like this:
1. Nebulas
2. A-wings
3. Greedo shooting first

Well i can say an extra 512mb of ram will solve most of youre nebulon and com-linkie problems (since i used to have them and now i dont). BUT....since RotW space lag has got worse, when JTL first came out space was gloriously lag free nearly (with the ground game getting alot more) now RotW comes out and does the same but for space 
.
.And one more thing someone for the love of god fix the ISD's guns, if its firing you have 1-5fps when its not i get 30fps flat (and i dont even have to look at the ISD or be within a certain distance, the plain fact is if the ISD is firing all DS is laggy as hell.

I would like to have more than 2 flyable POBs generated at one time.

How about soe just leave space alone? Its working so no need to fool with it and break it like they did the ground game.

I don't like the Nebulas, but I can deal. It's the friggen lightning I hate. We're not flying through atmosphere, there should be NO lightning.

You just haven't learned the secret to shooting A-wings yet. (Actually I can't explain it either, it's just something I do well.

Actually, I'm fairly good at shooting them now, but they still annoy the hell out of me because of my time in Storm Squadron.
