Thread: New Expansion. No new Space.
This is fake and if it is real, it won't see my credit card....
Sidekick system, wasn't that a CoH feature? Only 50 quests? And isn't Obi-Wandead at this point? Including characters from other Star Wars games? No spacezone even though there's a new planet with space above it?
It's gotta be a fake. It's the only explanation that makes sense.
'sides, who cares about Mustafar? Coruscant, Korriban, Nar Shaada, Geonosis, even Hoth, would be far better choices

I don't understand your post. It doesn't seem to make any sense. Well it does, but I'm not sure what you're getting at. Are you yay or nay for this new expansion?
/confused.....
um.....yeah that's all I have to say really. I mean, the premise for this rumored expansion is wrong on sooo many levels.
1. Vader pwned Obi-Wan already, so unless they set the timeline back about 20 years it just doesn't make sense.
2. Why would we want a world where there's only rocks and lava. No NPC's around except miners, and there shouldn't be any wildlife on it either. I mean, everyone's been asking for Hoth since before this game launched.....
3. The FS system got exclusivly 2 patches way back when, which vastly improved and gave content to the FS quest. Why would they add another means to become FS, and why would they add another system when the original one still has bugs to be worked out?
4. No new space content? Don't they realize that there's a substantial group of players who only stayed because of JTL and space. Why would they want to alienate us anymore then they already have by ignoring bugs that have been around since JTL beta, and completly imbalancing PvP with RotW, and adding quests that cannot be finished, etc etc.
I'm not buying this one bit!!!! Either this article is a complete fake, or poorly translated, or completely mis-represents whatever new expansion SOE is working on.

I agree entirely. I sincerely doubt this 'new expansion' is anything more than speculation and a hoax. If however it is true, I won't be buying it. Not unless there is like...some kind of Heavy version of the A-wing you can get by b**ch slapping Obi Wan upside of the noggin as a quest.

No chance this is the next expansion.
We're expecting it to be the Friday Feature. That was just the first official announcement we found.
I see you posting all over this board about this. Maybe YOU expect this to be the Friday Feature, but I sure dont see anyone else spreading this rumor.

Nab, it's not poorly translated... I just checked. (I read french, remember?) What the article says is what was written in the first post of this thread.

An expansion based on Coruscant, with instanced city sections and levels would be an amazing addition. Something like Kashyyk, but with actual technology. Instead of killing stupid things like animals and shaman and witches, or whatever, we could deal with the underworld... spice dealers, slave traders, etc. Kash is nice to look at and all, but technologically, feels very backwards from what Star Wars should be.
That would be my dream expansion, and I would sooooo go smuggler to be able to fit-in in the underworld, that is assuming they ever throw the smugglers a content-bone. Then again being a BH it would be fun to track my mark to the deepest filthiest ends of the galaxy, and what better than Imperial Center (a.k.a. Coruscant) for it.

LOL In my dreams.The possibilities of what could be developed on Coruscant is endless.
I think an expansion which allowed a space station type city would be cool. It'd be a great way to intergrate the die hard pilots with the ground folk. Quests could include some sort of asteroid field obstacle course for the speed freaks out there /halo as well as some subterranian asteroid quests where say...players would be hired to go clear tunnels of huge space worms in order to keep the local space mining business going. Also! So the Jedi aren't totally fogotten, they could have an uber hard 'dungeon' style quest involving somthing er...evil? in an asteroid.
The 'city' would just be like a standard starsystem which you can hyper in and out of. In order to lnd at different parts of the asteroid belt, you'd just /comm your local control tower. So rather than going through a space station for repairs and landing..you simply land at the Spacedock you comm.
It'd be cool because from the windows and dome-like-glass of the space port, you'd be able to see any loal starships in the area. Only thing is, this idea would probably require windowsXP9091090923 in order to play and like 10gig of RAM 
.
Seriously though. I don't think SOE need to be concentrating on locations/people from the films all too much. Just somthing Starwarsy but original would be so refreshing. Starwars isnt about going back to the movies to -relive- what we've already seen as far as I'm concerned. Its about being -yourself- but in the same universe. Hell the loading screen of the installation disk says enough alogn the lines of "Live your own adventure". I don't want anything to do with the main characters...my toon simply isn't relevant enough to have that honour.
