What Planet did you start on?

Just curious as to what planet you started on when you first joined SWG.

I started in Bestine on Tatooine.

    Mos Espa, Tatooine.

    Immediately after spawning, got attacked by Desert Demon Marksman. Killed shortly after.

    Talk about a warm welcome.

    Dearic, Talus. It was only my second MMO. And the first thing I tried to do: Walk to the next city.

    I died about an hour later, in the middle of nowhere, completely lost and didn't play again for a few days.

    Mos Eisley, I think it was after the 1 year anniversary or around that, and they redid the newbie experience, there was the tutorial rush through which was super basic, and then there was the green droid. I think that was new though. I had no choice but to start in Eisley I think. This was the first free trial period they offered I think.

    Against my better judgement... Mos Entha, Tatt.

    As soon as I got enough cash together for a shuttle, I hit Corellia and never looked back. My first home STILL stands on the river outside Tyrena.

    Doaba Guerfel, Corellia
    Day after Launch (Collectors Edition)

    First thing I did was take a mission and WALK to Coronet. Got incaped a few times, but I made it.

    Restuss, Rori ... LOL  and I was a dancer, so that worked REAL well!    And I was stubborn and tried to stay there!  I finally gave in and went to Theed.  Ashe was my first character.  Kettemoor server.

    Mos Eisly - Tatooine

    It was in October 2003. My cousin had been playing for a couple months and met me there by the starport. It was really exciting as I had been hearing about the game since before it went live and am a huge SW fan. Was going through a divorce so did not get to play until October of '03. Man that first day was SO awesome. It was neat that I knew someone there the minute I logged in.

    Thinking back to the days when there were no mounts and you had to run almost EVERYWHERE, plus the (sometimes) 45 min. "buff lines" ... that is a unique experience no one but us will ever know.

    I miss the good ol' days when nerds were actually intelligent.

    Moenia, Naboo.  :) 

    I started out running rebel delivery missions to and from Theed.  When I hit 100k I would stop and start leveling.  If I hit 200k I was one rich mofo.  :)

    I started out on Tatooine (couldn't resist), but after a while I came back down to earth with a massive thump after JTL and before the CU.

    "Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience"

    Aye, i also started on Tatooine, Mos Isley. First thing i did was to hide myself behind som large junk to try and figure out how the menues and stuff worked. I thought that everyone would start shooting at me. This was somewhere around may 2004 and SWG was my first ever MMO and damn it had a strong impact on me. I remember playing the game until 7 AM several nights in a row. It was great fun! I was hooked!

    Tatooine, Mos Eisley on june the 30th 2003....ohh the good old days before publish 9 and 12!

    I started in Moenia, Naboo.  The same day I ran to Theed since that's where my friend started and I didn't know about shuttles (nor did I have enough credits for a ticket :p).  I was in awe as I would get to the top of a mountain and see the view below.

    Venus.  My wife started out on Mars, however.

    All kidding aside, I started in


  • CrazyDiamondCrazyDiamond Member Posts: 9
    Mos Eisley Tatooine seemed like the best place to start out. It had everything a starter needs. Actually I liked it so much I have a home there and I only go to other planets for quests.

    Narmle, Rori for me. I must have stayed there for a month before shipping out.
    Loved killing those giant rabbits, lol.

    Moenia was my favorite city in the game. Prior to travesty that was player cities, Moenia was packed and you could count on some decent raids.

    I played primarily on Kettemoor as Ico.

    Restuss, Rori.  Rolled a toon with a random name, started as an artisan with the intention of becoming an architect or a tailor...

    Man, I hated those spiders.  They seemed to attack me every time I went near the town gates.

    Played for about two weeks before I saw another player and took their advice. Rerolled on Tatooine, Mos Espa, and that's been 'home' ever since.

    Kor Vella, Correlia

    The first thing I did was go get incapped by a Butterfly. Second thing I did was run to Cornet & back. I didn't leave Kor Vella again until I met the guys who eventually became our guild founders with me.

    Question: How does a game go from having it's main player demand being Hooded Cloaks, to reverting the game back when it didn't have Hooded Cloaks?

    I'll start my own SWG... with Black Jack... and Hookers!!!

    In fact, forget the SWG!!!!

    Tried to take a courier mission to another city and thought I would make more money by walking it.
