SWTOR is a good game but it's in the wrong time period. No one gives a poo poo about 5000 years before Luke and Vader.

OT era is so good I can't understand why people considered no Clone Wars in Battlefront a bad thing.

I'm not sure SWTOR would even exist if Galaxies were alive and well today. Presumably the guys who produced SWTOR could see the writing on the wall and gave the green light knowing that Galaxies was bleeding subs who still craved a Star Wars MMO.

There is buffing, but it isn't as necessary for content as it was in Pre-CU.

It's closer to what buffs are in other MMOs, something extra rather than something necessary.

That isn't really true. I mean you could go and do just about anything low-end without buffs, but you'd be foolish to do anything that isn't low end without at least an entertainer buff. The NGE brought an extremely diverse way for Ents to "Build a Buff" based on the person receiving it's preferences.

For PvP especially you might as well be naked without it.

I do seem to recall a mass naked PvP battle or two on Bloodfin or Starsider at some point.

It's all people getting mad that they're being censored by SJWs trying to stop them from saying human being and friend of the family in their star war chat.

Speaking of, is the Stella Bellum forums currently experiencing crippling goonterror or is there another group of "toxic elitists" that has ruffled their feathers?

Not really, just a very small group of extremely obnoxious, extremely vocal people that have the rabid swagger of a 4chan enthusiast but would probably even be shunned there.

I dont think anyone knows goons are playing stella, nobody has posted about it in the forums or tried to start any goonfear.

Do we know where we are setting up? Is cnet still the player hotspot? If so throwing our houses down in prep for the city as close to the main city as we can would probably do us well commercially

In the NGE, everyone starts in Mos Eisley, and pretty much everyone ends up using their own ships for travel. For all intents and purposes Eisley will most likely be the only static city that retains a permanent population of players. Most others will just be people passing through.

Plus if we settle down somewhere on Tatooine then we can make an authentic Afgoonistan. Though we wont be able to place Naboo and Corellian style houses if that matters.

Base on one of the planets with the city invasions imo. That's probably going to be where the only PVP happens (at least it was in actual NGE). I think the Keren was typically the busiest of the cities back in actual, but vOv

I was gonna do armoursmith/weaponsmith, levarris was going to do structures. I think goggles said he wanted to do domestic arts. We should probably have multiples anyway though so do what you like :p

@everyone It's the time you've been waiting for! We are officially live!
