sytes · 2011-08-18T21:49:37Z

On Thursday, August 18, 2011, at 4:00 a.m. PDT all U.S. and European galaxies will be brought down for a Hotfix. The servers are estimated to be down for 4 hours. If this timeframe changes, we'll post an update on the official forums.When the Hotfix is complete, all galaxies will be live but unavailable while we complete final testing. All galaxies will be made available after that time. Game Update 20: Galactic Civil War 2 - SpaceThe Galactic Civil War expands into space! With this update, you will now be able to participate in dynamic space battles and fight alongside or against Ace pilots including: Darth Vader, Luke Skywalker and Boba Fett.Defend your capital ship or attack the opposing faction's capital ship in an epic space battle!Enjoy rewards like: new craftable ships, space components, and more! Tokens earned from the space battle can be used with new vendors located on Talus and Rori.New NPC duty missions are available from many of the space stations. Challenge the best NPC pilots in the galaxy. But, watch out! Some of these new missions may have an Ace pilot gunning for you!Smugglers and Medics have both received an Expertise update.GCW2Capital ships of either faction will now spawn in the space zones of Tatooine, Corellia, Naboo, Lok and Dantooine.Each of the stations will come under attack every three hours.Each zone will alternate between requiring the player to be Combatant or Special Forces.Participation will be based on the player ship having killed at least one NPC ship or shot the enemy capital ship at least once.Players cannot damage the components or the chassis of the capital ships and stations. Only another capital ship / station can cause chassis damage in the battles.Players can cause shield and armor damage in addition to attacking other fighters. Players can support the fight by reducing the shield and armor from the opposing ship in addition to preventing opposing ships (player and NPC's) from attacking the friendly capital ship.POI's for the space battle has been added to each system.Added /spacebattlestatus command. The command can be used to get the time until the next space battle in the current system. You can get the time for other zones by adding the zone name after the command (for example /spacebattlestatus dantooine will give you the time until the next space battle in Dantooine space.Players will be rewarded with tokens and GCW for participating in the battles. Winning the battle and participation in Special forces battles will provide a bigger reward.A Rebel space token vendor can now be found in the Rori Rebel Military Outpost.An Imperial space token vendor can now be found in the Talus Imperial Military Outpost.Both vendors will sell new craftable ships, ship deeds, components, and other items.Ship schematics will cost 300 tokens while the ship deeds will cost 1000 tokens.Ace pilot collections have been added.GCWInvasion generals of both sides will now always use 64m ranged rifles.The amount of GCW earned when a factional base is destroyed will be reduced for each extra player, if more than eight players are eligible for the reward.For example if a group of players are destroying a base worth 2000 GCW points and there are 1-8 players eligible to receive the reward each will get the full 2000. If there's 10, each will get ((2000*/10) = 1600.SpaceYou will no longer appear as a red dot to others during the grace period while loading into a space zone. If you are the one loading into the space zone, after you have loaded in, during the brief period before the grace period expires, you will not see others as red dots either.

Ik heb er al helemaal zin in....
Sytes, heb je nog wat materiaal voor mijn YT1300 ??

Het enige wat we dan nog missen(?) is de mogelijkheid eigenhandig op te stijgen naar de space omgeving resp. te landen vanuit de space omgeving. (pinkt een traantje weg)
