Tuftronic Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 (edited) I would like to know how much interest there is in making our ships into a bigger part of the game. Please provide the most fitting answer to the following 4 questions: 1) Would you like to see a quest line that allows you to help choose your ships specifications, in order to have a somewhat unique ship? For instance, during this quest, you could shake down a junk dealer for money and choose something from his "junk yard" such as armor plating, different hyperdrive, blasters, ect. Yes I know it sounds familiar...it's just an example. a) Yes b) No c) I don't care if there is a quest or not. 2) Would you like your ship exterior to look different from other players? Different appearances could be accomplished during the ship creation quest line. a) Yes b) No c) It doesn't matter to me. 3) Would you like to be able to purchase upgrades to your ship as you level, such as Mail Boxes, Galactic Trade Network Terminals, Vendors, Weapons, a Wookie whom you can play 3d chess against, ect...? a) Yes b) No c) I don't care either way. 4) Would you like to receive decorations for your ship as loot drops and quest rewards? (These could include, medals, accomondations, trophy's, statues and so on) a) Yes b) No c) I don't care what the interior of my ship looks like. I of course am in favor of all of these. It would add a larger goal to each player as they level. It would also serve as a money and time sink which all MMO's need. Plus it would just be fun to pimp out your ride, right? This topic has been brought up a few times, but it has thus far not received a lot of comments. Please vote or comment below. If it dies again, well then people like their ships the way they are and I will let it go Thanks!

Kalthorine Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 Yes to all 3! Er... all 4... um - I thought there were going to be 3 questions? But seriously, YES to ship customisation options! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daMarek Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 Give us the ship customizations BioWare! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vistram Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 With all the other things in this game that require attention...no. Later ... sure I guess...I personally do not waste time on cosmetics in games although many enjoy that facet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I_Grock_Spock Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 It would be cool, but somewhat pointless since nobody else sees your ship. Now, if pvp space battles were added... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotipe Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 Now, if pvp space battles were added... Drool. Then obviously a custom name for the ship as to make it even more personal, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miliways Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 I'd love to see some ship customization. Star Wars Galaxies had player cities and player homes, and you could really customize your own house. It was one of the really amazing features of SWG that sat it aside. I think the same thing for your ships in this game would be awesome! Have some furniture and some decorations you can move around, maybe pick from some different lights or something? That said, the ships are pretty detailed, so you couldn't change much. Like I said, maybe if you could get furniture and then you could place it where you wanted, but the shell of the ship remained the same. Changing the outside of the ship is unrealistic IMO. They're not going to spend time doing a ton of different models to change your ship when you rarely even see the outside of it (space battles, single player only). They've said guild ships might be coming, and then in that case customization would be even cooler. Things I want in my ship: A mailbox, and maybe access to the auction network. Ship customization would be awesome, but I'd rather they fix bugs and other things first, ships are cool enough for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTurniipKing Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 Yes, this would be good. No rush, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ditboo Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 I would love to customize my ship, yes! I would also love free-fly PVE content, and PVP space battle content as well, in addition to the mini-games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JHoltJHolt Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 I want to be able to stick those custom plastic engine vents you buy at Autozone on my ship. And a flame job with my lastname in Old English on the back. Awesome... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gstring Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 yes to all ! I would like to see not only the mentioned but a whole MMO on the space side of things. PVP, Exploration, Proffesions, Raid bosses, PVP themed raids on planets. There is loads they could do and I really hope they do more with it.

Spytrx Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 I'd be all for it. Access to the holo network (like bounty or other work), mailbox, suchlike would be great. I also wouldn't mind some individualization, like interior design and colours. Since we had homes in Galaxies I am a little puzzled why this can't be ported into this game as well at some point - after all, no hero is on the job all the time...

Glowrod Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 Why have a poll about it. They've already said that it's coming. Give them time to get out of initial release and fix some of the intial bugs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KoukosGamer Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 Yes to all 4...however most important is give importance to ships..besides a minigame...and not so great also.. ..whats the point of ship appearance if only you see it..Id like some flashpoints that use ships.... Make 1 only Bioware and see how many play it...that simple... warzones etc.... or combine flashpoints and raids to include a part that ship is needed... Guild Flagships? Those could be highly changed in terms of appearance by combined guild members effort...either by completing space missions and collecting commendations etc.... Make warzones that could involve one guild flagship being defended by its members from pirates ? ( other players) attacks..that need to destroy specific objectives in a limited time...stuff like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gotipe Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 i wanna pimp my ride And maybe it's unrealistic to expect much cutomization on the outside but you can after all invite others to the interior of your ship, eh? Great feature of SWG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nullifier Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 make the ship less annoying to use, streamline the take off and landing sequence 1st before making it pretty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laxhack Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 Answer to all questions posed is yes- more customization= more immersion= better gaming experience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuftronic Posted January 10, 2012 Author Share Posted January 10, 2012 I am not aware of what they have said regarding ship customization. Maybe some good, new ideas can be generated here in addition to what they're planning? It can't hurt for them to know what we would really like to see Thalinos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jairec Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 1) a, 2) a, 3) a, 4) a. I'd love to see the ship have more customization and involvement in the game. I also think it needs to be a quick travel option available anywhere, possibly even with its own cooldown. It may not be the right thread to say it, but I hate the current hangar/spaceport configuration. It seems like a purposeful waste of our time. I think it could definitely use streamlining.
