In my opinion, if you feel it's canon then it's canon. Who cares what the creator or the owner of the franchise says.

I Think its a way to slow phase out the main character voice actor. So that they don't have to rely on those voice actors anymore to do the voices. With npcs it can be random voice actors and they aren't stuck with a voice actor anymore.

We are only companions now...Our companions are the main character/hero/ The funny thing is in instances we have the extra droid to help out..but he's not even needed cause our companions can solo them.

Really it doesn't even matter..... Our main characters are just companions now and our companions are the main characters when it comes to combat. They are so overpowered that if they didn't get knocked down on world bosses they could solo them.

You think being the only west coast server matters that much? If that's the reason, why am I on the east coast and playing on harbingers and not jedi convenant or the shadowlands.. I'm not playing on them cause they aren't the most populated.. I'm sure I'm not the only one not in the west coast timezone playing on harbinger for that reason. If anything they just need to upgrade harbinger so it can support more players easily

Don't think that matters..its not about the server location its about population. I'm not even on the west coast and play on harbinger because its populated..adding more servers won't fix the problem. If that was the case..there wouldn't be any low population servers.

I'd prefer if they'd make space battles more integrated into the main story. Similar to the space battles from the movies

I have no problem with level syncing. As long as you keep high lvl abilites they just scale down. If i lvl sinc and only have say only the lvl 10 abilities on a lvl 10 planet then I'm not a fan.

I'm personally glad they are making all companions equal..I would rather have an option to take any companion I want with me..and not be stuck with the same one through the entire game.

Have they showed him with gameplay on the other classes yet? He could be replaced by one of the other companions from the other classes in those scenes if they haven't.

I hope they withhold some stuff.. I want a little mystery to discover when i play the game.. technical stuff sure they can tell all that..but keep some of the new companions a secret and story elements..Whats the fun of a new story if your told everything about it. Bioware is known lately for telling too much spoiler information about its games lately imo.

By that same logic..they can't remove some of the normal companions either..because you may have purchased a cartel pack..that included a skin customization for them.

Went to test my names out on my new destination server and my Character name are taken. This is pretty rediculous, I was a pre-launch character and saved my names, Now i lose them all. Thanks a lot Bioware. People Reserve names for a reason. In an mmo it gets pretty unforgivable, Its one thing to let ppl volunteer to move their character; they know they may not get their name. But to force someone to move and lose their name, to me can be a last straw for a lot of ppl. You should reconsider before you lose more ppl, Please!!!! I love this game, and have come acustom to my character names, and am pretty disappointed that I am not going to be forced to lose my names of the characters i have spent so much time on.

Was expecting a little more story out of it..instead all the quests come from a terminal.

So, my guild was going into nightmare karagga tuesday. I set up the group and invited everyone. I then set the mode to 16 nightmare and reset all current operations. The icon on the instance door was the nightmare icon. All 16 of us went in. The first thing that seemed strange was the fact that the trash was able to be cced. We though, well maybe bioware nerfed 16 modes in tuesdays patch. But we only relized that some how we were stuck in an 8 man normal mode with 16 ppl when we got to bonethrasher and he had just over 1 mil hp. We werent for certain which lockout it would give us so we killed him..he dropped 3 items plus the crafting schems and mats. On our lockout it showed karagga normal Bonethrasher. Well we went outside. Dispanded the group. Someone else created it. They all went in, and then invited me. They were in the 16 man nightmare mode. But when i went in. I noticed the trash was still cleared. And i wasnt in the same instance as them. I then proceeded to log onto my alt and join the raid. Well when i entered the instance..i was still in the cleared 8 man instance and not in the group. Well we gave up on karagga's and decided ev nightmare instead. We went in. It was definitely set to nightmare this time. Well we got to the first boss and whiped. When we went back in..we were all in and noticed there were 3 instances..and we were in the 3rd. and the turrets had respawned. We could not get back into the instance we had cleared up to the boss. We said ok..so we tried karagga's again. This time i was able to get into the nightmare 16 mode. But 3-4 other ppl were still getting into the 8 man first boss cleared one. We then decided it wasn't worth it so we gave up. Anyone else experienced this?
