B: Why wouldnt there be Imperial Scans there??Come one, Kessel is an Imperially controlled spice mine... Even tho they are Imperials they are not so stupid that they wont know about, and try to stop, smuggling of this extremely high-potential spice. Natural places to have crews on standby is of course around the planet and the known hyperspace point.






This would be interesting. Fast-talk could come in handy here. You have to convince the ships there that you're just a regular freighter from XXX picking up a regular shipment. That's where having the master smuggler comes in handy. He gets to use his skills to talk your way onto the loading platform, then the pilot puts the hammer down and gets you away from there. The better the smuggler (or at least the further up that tree,) the better the chance of success.

I read this proposal last night and I can think of one very large downfall.


1 - I would not spend any of my time online doing anything else other than the Kessel Run. All my armorsmith customers would have to be told "piss off, I'm busy" and I'd eventally become a bum wandering around the galaxy selling my glitterstim (or becoming a junkie myself).



So do I support your idea? For my own sake, no. No I do not.

This is a nice idea. Glitterstim shouldincrease awareness and mind regeneration, as well as reduce mind costs for actions performed. It should give bonuses to melee and ranged defense and speed. In the extended universe, it allows characters to probe others' minds. I don't think that can be implemented in the game


ADDENDUM:

It would add to the Star Wars feel if there were a chance thatyou were to be taken into the docking bay of an imperial star destroyer in the Kessel System. Perhaps it could be like a Corvette mission moving around in the docking bay area of the star destroyer, butif you are Imperial, you should be able to talk your way out of the situation without being boarded. Otherwise, you might have to bring your friends and disable the star destroyers tractor beam. Somehow this seems like it might get a little difficult with all those 's running around shooting at you, though. Maybe... you only have to fight if you are Rebel ground faction. In other cases, there is a stiff fine and you have to wait 5 minutes to return to your ship. This fine would be reduced for Imperials and the process would take less time.

IT LIVES!!!!


This is horribly out of date. If I have spare time I should go through and edit it lol


Not like I think this would ever be done because it won't. But, it's always nice and heartbreaking to imagine of the what could have been.

I also kept this one stickied as well. Kessel right now, in my opinion, was poorly done. Sure the blackholes are nice to look at, but the place is so empty.


Even w/o the missions [ though they would be nice] I'd like to see the enviroment out there alot more interactive than what it is. I want to be nearly sucked into the black hole...or take damage from the asteroid and ship debrisin the pitt...If the Sarlacc can disease, it being part of an enviroment...let Kessel's enviroment be interactive as well.
