An idea on Star Wars Galaxies

Me and Lord Freedon Nadd have developed a plan to start a community for Star Wars Galaxies, the MMORPG. In the game, you can build a city of your own with friends. We'd like to do this with people from the Academy.

The idea is to make a town in which we are all equal. We share most of the money and gadgets that we earn. Speeders and all that sort of things can be used by anyone. There would be a few leaders (Freedon and I volunteer :P), not neccesarily the Academy leaders. Later on in the game, when the expansion comes out, we could start a fighter squad and join the rebels. These are all just ideas of course.

Problem is, there is noone in the whole family with credit cards, Holland is a country where credit cards are still not widely used. I gave up for the beta for SWG. SMALL CHANCE, but a fellow has to try.:P

Just let ur dad pay with his credit card, then u'll pay him back with real money.
Yes, cities are not in launch, but Player Associations are and will need a headquarters. Vehicles aren't in too, but they're probably in by the time you have enough money to buy one.

I had the idea to make a Galaxies Academy site, but I think I lack the skills to make a good PHP site like this one, so if anyone could help me... I do have some site making skills, HTML and Flash. When it's going to be PHP, we will also need a PHP supporting server, maybe we can use some space on this site...

Wow. it looks cool the game, and I'm DEFENITVELY up for your experiment. I owuld like to see it work and posts some theories of why. A whole community of JA'ers cool. But I have to wait untill I have a credit card, because without it you can't pay

Just like to say that if you want to find me in SWG just look for the prominent politician :)

I'm in. Acidic is an avid fan, so he'll probably want to get in too.

And on the town issue, you can't 'make' towns for now. They excluded that feature from the release version, it will be included in a patch. You can form PA's, but for now no towns with politicians, mayors, etc. Only random buildings. We could for a headquarters, no problem with that.

This all to say that if you need any more players, or don't mind a guy that talks a lot, I'm here. Bounty hunting/politician all the way!

I don't drink beer, my grandmother is DEAD, I get CD's for free of friends, who don't have any money, and I can just barely handle that 12€ a month without going bankrupt... :(

Just so you know, player created cities won't be available in the game at launch. You will have to wait awhile until they add it through patches later on.

1 pound ~ 3 Mark ~ 1.5 Euro

12 Euro ~ 24 Mark ~ 8 pound

8 pund, roughly.
But hey, just drink one beer less next friday, visit your grandma once or don't by the next CD and you have the money :)

What, the monthly subscription is about 12 Euro? What is that in the Queens pounds?

Most of these MMORPG's are around 12 Euro. I expect the same price for SWG. I really think we should try to work together once we start playing. I checked it out, you can share money and all. Would be pretty neat if we could build our own town after some months.

I also heard something abouta monthly subscription fee?! So you shell out money for the game AND pay monthly to play it? Sounds a bit harsh to me. I own my own house and have little enough money as it is. I'm only 22 for gods sake!

Ah the server... it's not sure if there will be EU servers :( Propably not.
BUT
You dont have to care for lag. As you dont really shoot, means you just tell your avatar to shoot and if you hit or not is determinded by your sills etc, lag doesnt count as much as in JK2. I heared some 1337s saying it's possible to play with 300+ ping :)
And the EUs will propably get an US server, but inofficial. Means the whole community will go there, but it's still located in the USA.

AND it's gonna be expensive! 15 €? Dont know, something like that :(

On the BLOODFIN server of course.

--------------
oh, SWG will be pretty expensive, i guess. they dont want to talk about yet, that shows everything..
--------------
Not necessarily. I look at it like this:
There are two grocery stores around where I live, Giant Eagle and Shop 'N Save. If Giant Eagle is going to have a sale April 15th, they don't write up the coupons for that day 2 or more months in advance. This would give Shop 'N Save a chance to match their prices. Instead, Giant Eagle would wait until a week or so in advance to make it next to impossible for Shop 'N Save to have the same sales at the same time.

Now just replace Giant Eagle with Star Wars Galaxies, and Shop 'N Save as Star Wars Galaxies competitors, which include [ http://remus.rutgers.edu/~sjc67/C_D_MMORPG.swf ]

PS - Play on BLOODFIN =P

but no matter, i will sell my real life and then i can afford it :)

and about jedi: there is a (secret) way to become a jedi. it will be for hardcore gamers only. one question was: how many guys out of 100 people will become a jedi after 3 months. answer: none. lol. they expect the first jedi after one year. ONE YEAR DUDES! argh!

P.S.
I'm soon gonna be a member of the Church of Lumba! we provide you with the amazing Lumbanol, an fuddeling home made drink. you can rest in our monastery for a knight and receive services. we offer heal, food, pets and herbs. my task will propably the one of a ranger. i will walk through the woods, hunt and tame animals with my sword, collect some weed and protect pretty girls from womprats :D
weeeeeee, thats gonna be fun

I'm mad. It's going to be really expensive per month and there was talk of paying extra for each character you had.

If the price is reasonable, one of my friends and I are going to buy it. Bounty hunter baby!
