Would people object to Chapter 4 taking place on old planets?

True. But I've also noticed a lot of buildings or areas that are not used. I don't think they have to be instances either. Certain areas are just dangerous. If a lowbie wanders in... they learn a hard lesson. lol!

Ugh. Again. Is there a particular reason why you (almost completely) restricted yourself to planets from the movies, a timeline that is 3000 years later than the game? Planets like Endor or Naboo aren't going to be what you expect. For example, on Naboo, Otoh Gunga does't exist. The human population is still very small, as there have only been human settlements on the planet for 250 years, and not in any great numbers. No one really knows that Endor exists, and more importantly, we know that nothing of interest happens there, because 3000 years later, people still don't know it exists.

So, I reiterate yet again: SWTOR is a game set in the Extended Universe. It should conform to the Extended Universe. Trying to force it into the movie timeline is silly. Trying to bring culture from the movie timeline into the Old Republic is a violation of the lore. And yes, some people actually care. Some of those people are Lucasarts, who are depending on Bioware to add to the universe in a consistent way, since the SWTOR storylines are now Star Wars canon.

We have lots of planets going to waste currently after they're completed. Asking for lots of new planets for chapter 4 is unrealistic and will keep us waiting years. Why not re-use planets and perhaps expand them? What does everyone else think? Flaws with it?

Personally, I would like to have seen a compromise (not as great as the one they clearly made) where we got a new planet (preferably one already in lore) AND added some new content to existing planets. I feel the issue is there is no real direction here, and no long-term plan for this game. They offer armor/clothing sets that are in-game, just recolored, when there are tons of outfits in-game that players want, but are only used on NPCs. That art is already done, and it wouldn't look as much like you were just recoloring items that we already had access to. The same with the planets. We could have quest lines on some of the capital ships, and existing planets, but I would like to see some new areas. I liked the way they added Section X to Belsavis. This could be done on other worlds, possibly using already existing areas, for some of it. Personally, I would love to see some high level content taking place on Korriban and on DK.

Totally agree. I'd love a Korriban bonus series, a new area of Korriban is excavated and unleashes all sorts of badness. You could have something similiar for Tython as well.

I think they under-utilized the starting worlds. Korriban and Tython have some really neat geography and atmosphere, and you spend very little time on them compared to later worlds. I think we spend enough time on later planets like Hoth and Belsavis that adding more content there would feel redundant, and a new planet is preferable to expansion there, but I definitely think the starter worlds are worth returning to.
