Hi peeps,

I was browsing thru a website earlier about Earth and Beyond (old Westwood Studios). This got me thinking about space MMORPGs again. How much fun I had playing EnB, those little jingles still pop into my head every now and then "Tada O" LOL

Then I thought about my ultimate space MMORPG, based in the ever popular Star Wars Universe.

I would love to see a great space MMORPG set in the Star Wars universe and co-developed by Petroglyph and David Braben Frontier Delevopments of the old Elite fame.

I think those 2 teams would do it the great justice it truely deserves.

I'd simply like to see Petroglyph produce a Sci-Fi game based on the EnB Model. Theres a ready and willing community waiting for the addictive fun that EnB offerred and what is lacking in the current selection of MMO's out there. Personally I love the online community in a PvE setting, people working together instead of finding ways to stab each other in the back. All that seems to be available these days are games that foster the worst aspects of human nature, such as what you find in Eve Online.

EnB was fun, highly entertaining, and its what we need today. I'd love to see Petroglyph run with this, I know you have the talent on your team. I know there are people waiting for something like this to come out.
Earth and Beyond Refugee. 150 TT/TD/JE I've been out of ammo for my Zet launchers for a couple of years now, does anyone have any stockpiled gathering dust or the materials to make them I'd appreciate it.

I agree. I want a fun environment- good story, good teamwork, etc. RPGing was never about PvP before online. Not that I'm absolutely against it, but there are so many games where you fight each other already, why should the focus of RPGing be PvP?

I would like to see a MMORPG/simulation game players command their own ships advancing to capital ships, like silent hunter 3. Just say the mission is to patrol the tatooine system and land some troops on the planet surface. you navigate your star destroyer out of kuat and take it to tatooine, patrol the space above tatooine, destroy enemy ships with star destoyer and using fighters from hanger. take it to the planet surface, land troops and control them like BF1 and 2.

Sounds great to me. I would have that as part of anyone that wanted to be an imperial naval officer.
