I have often wondered if thsi would work...

If a smuggler cans slice weps and armour why not slice swoops?

You could get a modified speed or condition (call it reliability) slice. You could buy a crate of Swoops, get them all sliced till you got a really fast one.

I think it'd be nice...but you could only slice YOUR swoop, and then it becomes untradeable. Same with starships...but if you slice your vehicle or ship, it decays at 3-4x the speed. Take the Millenium Falcon...fastest ship in the galaxy. Owned by a Smuggler......and it spent its entire movie career doing 2 things: Running...and being repaired.

Why, you ask? Easy...no real SMUGGLER is going to give his competition or his potential enemies the means to catch him. That's suicide in both business and life. If they had it so you could slice other peoples' vehicles, the Jedi would be sitting back with their 4-10 accounts (Yes...more than a few of them have 10+ accounts...that's over $150 a month for this game), doing nothing but working on that near perfect slice so they could always outrun the BH's then send them /tell's that all say "HAHAHA!!!! ur such a n00b!!!"

I wish we had parts for our vehicleslike we do starships. Then all vehicles would be varied. You would never know if someone was driving a landspeeder that was as fast as a Swoop.

We could then be allowed to slice those parts to improve their performance.

The addition of guns onvehicles would straight ROCK.

Or the addition of Tank like vehicles- like the ones in Ep. 1-3 that look like a giant wheel with guns or any of those other gunships would add a LOT to the GCW.

I'd like to take it a step further and push again for MODULAR CRAFTING!

Nothing would be cooler than starting with a Speeder or Swoop frame and adding custom looking engines and a seat, a capacitor, some weapons... ok now I'm just dreaming - but I think that would TOTALLY set SWG above the rest.

Can you imagine that with Weapons? or Armor? or CLOTHING? that would be so cool, having my very own, double-scoped, high-capacitor, extended barrel (for longer range) DL44XT. MAN! That would be sweet.

That would bring back soo much love for the crafting professions. No 2 weapons are the same (unless a factory run is made)... imagine the possibilities.

Forget the Combat Upgrade - GIMME THE CRAFTING UPGRADE!
