ok Who exactlly voted for Priveteers to get the gunboat?,

why can't we have more ( since it is a T5 ship), MP walk around, interactive ships?


Personally I want an upgradible ship like the yaucht, that I don't have, A ship to store things on like a house, hide cargo in, and carry groups on.


something that is not a group (crew) ship, but maybe something liek the Falcon is portrayed in the movies, a 2 cerw ship, but the passangers if any, can move around and horse about in the ship.


storage, and atmosphere, I like the idea of smuggleing cargo, carring passangers for a price, and yet still doing some combat manovers with my Ship,

(w/o a crew, just me)


-------------------

but we get a tank, that is about as usefull to a smuggler pirate as a target on our backs


now I do like we get new things, but let's make them thnigs that make sence, Why do we need a gunboat?, we have a T4 ship like that


---------------------

Another thing I'd like to adress is the Droping of certs


this is silly, I'm a cargo pilot , why would I forget all my training on the YT-1300 when I join the rebels or Imperials?


ok working up the Certs for the componets, I understand, but for non faction missons, or just to help your mates, let's fly the other ships we knew and loved, like me in my YT-1300, once a rebel, i'll beable to use it ( in my world), to bring my group to a planet so we all get there at once.


---------------------

and can we please land outside the big cities and near player cities, see our ships and enter/ exit them like we do Our speeders.


no bombing runs, no landing on buildings or in the streets, but outside the limits like where scouts hve to go to make camps, our ship stays there like a house till we launch again and dock ether at a staion, or in a starport


you seen the shuttles ( imp ones), that are out in a small camp, well we can have something like that for when we land planetside and not in the starport, it'd be like haveing a camp as a scout, entertainers and medics can do ther thing in the confines of your lil camp set up around your ship, and then you can enter/ exit the ship like a house, ( but climbing up the walkway, or ladder, based on ship)


now this can be cool for loging after a gameing sesson, like entering your house, well you log back in and tada theres your camp and ship and everything right where you left it... remember where you parked =-)


this would bring life back to the out of the way player cities, land outside it, and tada it's much nicer to visit and resupply or make them deliveries you wanted to do.


now yes someplaces you just can't land, and where around the city you wanted to land near is kinda random, keeps people from pileing up, only so close can one ship be parked to another, like the houses, only so close, ( just a larger radius), you still have to walk/ ride to the local you wanted, but it's nicer to only have to ride 500m rather than 6K to the nearest place I parked.


only way to reclaim this camp set up landing site is to launch and dock with a station, or land in a starport


we should also have lil landing and takeoff animations or cinamatic sceans

No it is a good post mate, it's just that it has been said so many many times before in this forum. But you are hitting at the heart of what a lot of players desire in their Star Wars experiance, myself included. Although, I would add that if you land your ship outside the city, or in player cities, then there would be ships EVERYWHERE dotting the landscape. So I suppose to combat this the Devs would have to make the ships attackable by creatures or something. Like those mynock looking things that eat metal. Keep people in and around starports. But that of course is all a part of making the game more and more realistic. Will it ever be that way? I am not jumping on the bandwagon of people who scream NO. There is always a possibility with an ever changing online game like this. But it might be a long long time. So don't hold your breath. As smugglers know.
