I just thought of the imperial counterpart to Leia's archetype, Jabba the Hutt. I don't mean physically but story wise. As for gameplay the only way to make them different from other classes is to make them pet classes on top of being able to use companions. Bodyguards for Leia and beasts for Jabba.

That would have been a issue if it was not for the fact that it was a team at Bioware Edmonton that made the rail game and with Mass Effect 3 finished they were probably put back onto swtor's space game.

My guess is that they'll talk about it at the next big video game convention, Gamescom, august 15-19.

Soon in the video game world can mean 6 months sometimes a year.

Well the issue here is that you are including the elevators in your average when they aren't actually loading anything. They used to use the fade to black sequence but now they're showing the loading screen image instead. It's all artifical and really should be removed from the game. The reason why WZ, ships, and space missions have short load times is because they only have a small area that needs to loaded on our computers. What needs to be changed is how planets are loaded instead of having us load the entire planet and space station in one go they need to take advantage of the planet zones and only have us load the initial area we zone in and have the rest of the planet streamed to us in the background while we travel wherever we wanted to go.

What I expect in the future a lot more species options multiplayer space combat more Chiss storylines Legaacy banks, shared credits and commendations What I wish Droids as a playable option Speciies specific storylines Cinematic space combat similar to how Freespace did it

It takes 24 hours in a rest area to get at least half a level of rested exp. The traveling to a rest area makes sense to me when its a new player and when the game was launched but it needlessly takes hours out of your leveling experience due to travel time I however do like the idea of a perk that increases the rate at which you gain rested exp.

This actually a simple one but it would be nice to have a legacy perk, which allowed you to gain rested xp anywhere when you log off instead of just rested areas.

Lucasarts owns all of the content. EA just has distribution rights. But licensing agreements are still complicated business.

The moment they announce this they would have already gone free to play so your sun would be useless anyways.

Because it's extremely complicated to implement. They would have to plan out every single possibility and it multiplies quickly when it's non-linear.

The Battlefield Heroes and Play4free are perfect examples of what not to do.

It's not a planet but I would love to see the Maw show up as a flashpoint, operation, or a story instance.

That doesn't happen in video games period. I don't know why you would even expect them to even try doing that in TOR.

It doesn't need to be revolutionary they just need to clone a good space game like rogue squadron, wing commander, or freespace and then modify it to work for a MMO setting.
