EpiclyScruffy Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 hello, i believe that to make being in a guild so much more appealing you should introduce a guild base which can be a guild only ,customisable ship. i know that you are more than capable in doing that and it would give the old republic another excellent uniqueness when people compare it to other games. furthermore i am not the only person to have this idea the following links will take you to similar discussions. http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=153522&highlight=guild+flagships http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=383303&highlight=guild+flagships http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=319799&highlight=guild+flagships http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=218753&highlight=guild+flagships http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=150427&highlight=guild+flagships http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=97966&highlight=guild+flagships http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=98177&highlight=guild+homes please take this into consideration and i hope this can happen, thankyou, Lucien Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Listerman Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 I heard on The Instance: SWTOR Edition that this is actually in the works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyersfan Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 This is already in the works. They said it at the guild summit. Also, here's my piece: BioWare, please give us something other than guild ships. I really don't want a guild ship. As you yourself have stated, ships detach players from the worlds. I find it far more effective to include guild bases or structures on planets where we can convene. I'm not exactly looking for player housing, but some kind of neighbourhood-type area would be really cool. We could walk by the other guild structures on the way to our own. We could wave to allies as we pass by. I think that would be much better than another ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Listerman Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 We're probably a little ways off from being able to build structures on worlds like you could in Galaxies. Patience. Baby steps. Like cooking, you can add, but you can't remove. Start little, build the flavor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeavensAgent Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 The fact that you know you're not the only person to have this idea means you're not supposed to start a new post on the subject! The developers have already stated that they're exploring the potential for this as an addition to the game, and indicated it's something they'd like to add relatively soon. If they can get the technical details worked out I imagine it will be in-game before the year is up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeavensAgent Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 We're probably a little ways off from being able to build structures on worlds like you could in Galaxies.That's not ever going to happen. SWG and SWTOR are two fundamentally different game types. You'd have to rework things from the ground up to adequately support such a change.

Too much WoW, not enough money for both a month. Guild Ships are a nice in-between...Like the Bases in City of Heroes/Villains. Instanced zones where Guild Members can hook up and whatever resources are offered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeavensAgent Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 ...Petitions usually get locked.As do new threads about topics that are already being discussed elsewhere. Guild Ships are a nice in-between...Like the Bases in City of Heroes/Villains. Instanced zones where Guild Members can hook up and whatever resources are offered.I imagine instanced player housing will make an appearance at some point as well, similar to what's been done in EQ2.
