Ahto Spaceport Cantina is what you're looking for: http://www.lucasforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=791 Downtime is for general video game discussion (stuff that isn't Star Wars related).

The LFN website server is down... I can't really do much about that but wait for it to come back up, unfortunately :\ (The forum is on its own server while all the networked web sites are on another server, fyi) But the site was launched quite some time back and we've been posting entries for it.

No, it makes complete sense.

But a Jedi starfighter is not the Millennium Falcon. It is more like a TIE Fighter or X-Wing, both of which end up suffering huge amounts of damage throughout the movie and are seen to be much more agile but a lot more fragile too.

Anyway, that's my explanations of all that. But I did go back and watch the movie a few times. It's a very good movie because it has so much information about everything in the movie itself and from things it's referencing back in the original trilogy. They've done everything in that movie, not because it's cool, but because it makes sense within that universe.

You should see it from my point of view as an admin. There are hundreds of spambots that are trying to post in areas that they can't post any more. So they spend an hour there looking at error messages and then finally give up. We've managed to cut down the spam posts by a huge amount and herd them into places where we can more easily cut them down.

They do appear to be playing the long game on this one with Battlefront. I'm sure they've got movie tie-in DLC planned for each movie release, eps 7, 8 and 9 and the Anthology movies, Rogue One and the Han Solo one. Those alone would attract some interest for general movie-goers interested in playing a game with the things they've seen in the movie they just watched.

Oh right, I almost forgot. I've archived the Jedi Knight forums today. I waited as long as I could for that one. However, don't worry about the SWK and XWA forums for now. As I've said previously in many other threads, I won't be moving either of those forums into the archive until the end of the year.

More will change in the near future: http://www.lynkformer.com/prototype/newlf/ (incomplete mockup)

@ Redwing: I've added the link to the Star Wars Gamer forum at the top of the archived communities.

Yeah, I'll take care of the signpost link for the older forum sometime this weekend. I'll probably add something to forum templates to add a permanent link to Star Wars Gamer at the top of the page so that it's literally EVERYWHERE in those sections.

From what has been said in the past by folks over at EA, the two other studios to be working on games are BioWare and Visceral Games. BioWare is most likely making an RPG since it's their thing while there have been hints coming out from Visceral to suggest that their game may be about Han Solo or a smuggler character. Of course, while BioWare and Visceral have been confirmed a long time back to be the two studios that are working on something big for Star Wars aside from DICE, what they're working on exactly is a mystery at this point in time.

@CommanderAwesome: Moved your thread here: http://www.lucasforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=802

Moved both of those threads and renamed the titles slightly to make sure people know they're for "Episode I: The Phantom Menace" They also have tags on them them that associate them with the game. Oh, and I made sure to leave permanent redirects back in the forum they were in originally so that people can find where they are now.

Another heads up. I'm planning on trying to keep XWA (or at least, this specific forum of XWA) open until the end of the year. However, by the end of 2015, I'm going to go ahead and put everything into the LucasForums Archive: http://www.lucasforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=822 Again, you're all welcome to jump over to the Star Wars Gamer forum: http://www.lucasforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=783
