DATELINE CORELLIA: We've just learned that the Galactic Planning Commission will be limiting the initial numbers of cities per planet. While commissioners have not returned any of our calls on this important matter, our inside source, known only as Deep Snout, has confirmed this information.

According to Deep Snout the big three planets will be limited to 10 new cities each, while the other buildable planets will each support 25 new cities.

Deep Snout went on to say that this number may be raised at some future date, but that this current limitation will be enforced for the inital city expansionists.

To recap, it looks like the following caps will be in place on the number of new planetary cities allowed:

Tatooine: 10
Naboo: 10
Corellia: 10
Rori: 25
Talus: 25
Lok: 25
Dantooine: 25

We'll bring you more on this breaking story as it develops.

Leave it to the Devsto screw it up more. This could be bad or good, does the city have to be registered to be considered one of the 10?

Ugh, another race against the powergamers just to play the game the way we'd like.

not sure if its considered a race, but my city hall will be up 1hr tops after the patch lets me on on dantooine anyway, not sure if there will be 25 cities there even, but im sure tatooine naboo and corellia will reach 10 each easily, probably on the first day

I wonder if this assumes optimal placement?

Wow. And I thought it felt like a death-racebefore!

Wow, this is great. So if our Architect AND politician arent on at server reboot, we most likely wont get a player city on Naboo.....

I was concerned that the 1km limit would be resulting in some unhappy players. This makes that pale in comparison.

I don't think any limit is a good idea... but... 10?! Sounds like a hardware-driven problem (how do you deal with too many people on Naboo overloading the server? Don't let em make cities?).

Speculation, but I can't think of any other explanation for why they'd want to do something that is going to disappoint so many players.

btw, lol @ Deep Snout

so only 10 of us on each server on the big three will get to put up a player city! EVERY GUILD IN THE WORLD WANTS A PLAYER CITY! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

i knew it was too good to last.

What happens if some Joe Schmo gets a city hall right after the server comes up after the patch, places it with no intention of building a city, and then sells it to the highest bidder. If the cap for that planet has already been met, then would-be player cities will have to spend whatever this guys asks for to have their own city.

Thishas grief potential out the wazoo

Plinka, talk some sense into them!
