Star Wars Galaxies: Jump To Lightspeed Interview

IGN has just posted an interview with Haden Blackman, the producer of Star Wars Galaxies - the interview covers their first expansion for SWG "Jump To Lightspeed" which will finally enable players to fly spacecraft. Here is a bit from the interview:
IGNPC: Going from planet to planet is a pretty obvious upside. Is there any special content actually in space? What types of missions and NPCs might the player encounter?
Haden Blackman: Actually, the focus of Jump to Lightspeed is providing players with adventures in space. When you're flying between planets, you'll encounter all sorts of enemies, ranging from Hutt pirates to TIE fighter aces (if you're a Rebel). We're creating a number of new mission types specifically for these space adventures.
You can read the rest of this great interview at this link.

looks pretty sweet, only concern might be lag. but i think theres enough people playing that game to make the battleship things work. might make me consider playing it.

They almost had me with the whole flying though space, using my joy stick and speed control to dog fight tie fighters... flashbacks to X-Wing vs Tie fighter came to mind..
Then I remembered how bad SWG really is, am I gullible enough to believe this would be different?

Achievers realise that killers as a concept are necessary in order to make achievement meaningful and worthwhile (there being no way to "lose" the game if any fool can "win" just by plodding slowly unchallenged). -bartle
