Isn't the NDA still up? lol way to stealth things. by Polarism · 2004-10-20 03:45 · Score: 2, Informative

This must mean the expansion is complete garbage if the NDA is still up (was up as of a couple days ago talking to the IGN site manager for SWG).

Nope you don't see the ship take up. You go to the star port and click a terminal, choose your ship and a loading screen comes up. All anyone on the ground sees is you disappearing.

To be honest, I wouldn't bother, I'm in beta and while its fun, I can't see it lasting me more than a month. The original Tie-Fighter still has a better engine than this and was more fun. Don't get me wrong, customizing your ship and reverse engineering looted ship parts is enjoyable, but once you've mastered becoming a pilot (takes about three weeks) and got the best ship, it quickly becomes mediocre. Thats my two cents.
