Darth Maxx Posted May 12, 2002 Share Posted May 12, 2002 I don't think the game's very Party minded. But that could be possible I guess. Just don't think there will be that much NPC's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zendjir Posted May 12, 2002 Share Posted May 12, 2002 I hope that they included some hireable NPC's to protect my cargo ship, or my cargo speeder. What I actually would like to see is that it would be possible to 'own' hunderds of NPC, all doing their tasks for you; guarding, selling goods, mining, etc. But I think that will remain a dream forever. It would probably cause too much lag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
setsuko Posted May 13, 2002 Share Posted May 13, 2002 Isn't that how the stormtroopers are supposed to be? I mean, since they clearly say that playing a stormtrooper is out of the question (since it would be... well.. dull, patrolling things all day), are they not supposed to be able to be led by high ranking Empire players? And I guess they have rebel soldiers (think the troops on tantive IV for instance) and the hutts would have henchmen... Simply, the expendable fighters in the war. It would not be the first MMORPG to implement it, so I don't think its so far fetched. Your ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaalgoth Posted May 13, 2002 Share Posted May 13, 2002 They said that hey will be in the game, and that it may be possible to control them. It's still not definite that wel will be able to control them, although it is likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zendjir Posted May 13, 2002 Share Posted May 13, 2002 Ya, we will have some NPC's to control, perhaps a protocol droid to accompany you and some NPC's in various shops. But I don't think we can control an imperial strike force, or the likes of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wraith 8 Posted May 13, 2002 Share Posted May 13, 2002 hey zendjir... waar uit Nederland kom je vandaan??? i also wanna be a trader (must be in Dutch blood) but Rogue 15 ( who hangs out here occasionally) offered me his help with protection ...

Zendjir Posted May 13, 2002 Share Posted May 13, 2002 Ik kom uit Stiens, in friesland, vlakbij leeuwarden (vlakbij Ascari dus). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ascari Posted May 13, 2002 Share Posted May 13, 2002 for the dutch guys: Do u guys have msn or something? mine is: Paul_Rispens@hotmail.com Anyway back on topic: It is possible to hire NPC's and put them in your shop or something. U have to give them a % of the profit I think. It's also possible to get some big pets and train them, and let them guard your precious speeder or someting Wraith, we must get some protection for our trade ships Or else people will steal them.

Zendjir Posted May 13, 2002 Share Posted May 13, 2002 How about nitro-thrusters? We dont need to fight 'em....we just run.... Oh looookie! an ambush...*pushes button SWOOOSH! But seriously: I think travelling in a convoy would perhaps be a good idea, if it's possible. Oh and my e-mail is hielkebrink@hotmail.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zendjir Posted May 14, 2002 Share Posted May 14, 2002 Useless that post was, yes, hmmmm, but maybe it fulfilled some unseen purpose, who knows? The ways of the force are not always clear. Well, let's get back to the topic: If we could own NPC's what kind of NPC's would you want to have then? I would wanna have: A shopkeeper; I'm a trader, but I want to have at least one shop, to sell any rare stuff I find or when there is a big demand for something. A guard; To guard my warehouse, probably one of Darhmaxx's most powerfull combat droids. (he was the droid developer, right?) A couple of NPC's to guard my cargo transport; I just know that there will be players that want to rob me of my goods, so I need some protection. Probably Darthmaxx droids again. An Astromech droid; when seeing R2 in the movies you cant help notice how handy an astromech is, I just got to get one...Dartmaxx...here I come again!

Darthmaxx, I dont suppose u can build a protocol/warrior droid for me? need some1 to talk to my astromech I also plan on having some big pets I can ride around on in town. Advantage over pets then vehicles. It's harder to steel a pet then a Vehicle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zendjir Posted May 14, 2002 Share Posted May 14, 2002 Nooo, I don't want 2 droids following me around! Wouldn't it be possible to replace the R2 dome, with a protocol torso and head? Hehe, darthmaxx has a big business allready Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Maxx Posted May 14, 2002 Share Posted May 14, 2002 Woho, got myself a market before the game's out. I don't know yet what the possibilities are, but if it's within my skills, I'll certainly create you guys some droids Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaalgoth Posted May 15, 2002 Share Posted May 15, 2002 Hmm.....that may be a good idea; more business that way. I too am going to be a bounty hunter, I'm just not sure what species yet. I don't wanna be a wookiee and every bounty hunter is going to be a trandoshan....I'm thinking of Zabrak bounty hunter though I may end up as a trandoshan.
