Theophany posted:The Repopulation is frequently mentioned as a spiritual successor to SWG but gently caress paying for software in alpha. Without the Star Wars IP you just have a really bad game though. It's not like SWG ever really was a great game in it's own right. It actually always sucked, it was just that it delivered the chance to "live" in the Star Wars Universe that appealed to people. If the same game was released for the Flash Gordon universe for example, it would probably have lasted a week, and went down in history as having the only game soundtrack composed by Queen.

Truthfully though, JTL should not be as intensive to put together as the rest of the game has been. Bottom line is, it's just not that intricate, and most of it depends on everything about the ground game to function. Once the core functionality of JTL is put in place, the rest is basically just scripting which is extremely simple.

Ahdinko posted:Stella Bellums source code and a prepackaged server VM got released last week so maybe something fun will happen. Levarris, you know what to do! (Which is consider running the server, then instead drink until you pass out) HELL NO! However, I would consider taking part of a Goon Incursion onto legends. I already have a character there, and the staff there practically licks my boots.

So the big question. Do we rebuild the great caliphate of Afgoonistan? Or find some nice slice of waterfront property in the form of Goontona Beach? Literally any option is on the table.

Nice. So far 320 unique characters have been created, population is still growing. It might just be a respectable server soon.

Hachiman posted:Basilisk sever has always around 1000 players, even though most are bots it is a steady population. Also you can find buffers (doctors, dancers and musicians) very easily. The market is not like when the game was live of course but you can find pretty much anything you need. Give it a try, it is free after all. Basilisk is just the same tired thing again. It gets old, fast.

No third faction, and no major changes to crafting. The main changes to stardust are about combat balance.

Radio Free Kobold posted:this stardust thing looks pretty great. the video has only got about 2.6k views though so i'm a bit worried about population. is there a decent amount of people playing it? It's a video about SWG, it's not going to get many views. But then I have only promoted it on the /r/swg subreddit. The population is small, but it grows slowly every day. Currently between 50-60 are online concurrently on a daily basis, so yes. It is a small community, though it is ridiculously helpful. (something which seriously surprises me)

Radio Free Kobold posted:the thing to do in crafting is probably to find a niche that isn't filled by whatever's on the market right now and just fill that. speeders or extractors or factories or clothing or cooking or something. There are a lot of niches that need to be filled on Stardust too.

Mindisgone posted:So is this stardust thing actually enjoyable? I was thinking of getting back into SWG (for the 50th time) and almost instinctively hopped on Basilisk. The original pre-CU is my flavor of choice but if you are all loving the new flavor then I'll add to the population for sure. The launcher won't work in Linux I don't think, let me know if you get it to with Wine, that would be interesting to know. The client itself works 100% with Wine though. Every ground profession is 100% implemented. JTL features, still are not. But they are in works. (not by me, but by SWGEmu)

Mindisgone posted:Update to running Stardust on Linux. I am actually going to bail on this and just run a virtual machine on my desktop and dual boot my laptop, problem solved (or averted). I figured the launcher would not work in linux. The client absolutely does, but in the case of stardust that doesn't matter because without the launcher you won't get the most up to date version of the client TRE.
