I think any new cosmetic customizations would be nice as would new species. I think why humans get more is because humans are a free species to play. Some class's get Twi'lets free as other classes get Chiss and so on. For the most part you have to buy an unlock to use. There is a lack of Twi'lek customizations I agree but others don't really have that many other than human. Some yes a lot no.
I would like the cyborg customizations added to all species even as a CM upgrade as well as new skin tones for all species, which include Twi'leks. Some of the cyborg armour sets work well for this. Other than new skin tones for Twi'lets which should be easy to do OP, I think it be far more useful to add a few customization you would like to see for Twi'lets in your opening post. I personally have lots of Twi'lek characters so new customs be nice to see.

Been subbed since launch, spent thousands of dollars on the CC.
Don't regret a second of it.
I don't regret my subs on anyone of my 7 accounts I had. I do regret the money I spent on CC or more accurately the money I spent on character slots. 600cc for a character slot on each server seemed money well spent, 17 characters yes, well worth it. If there came a time I could no longer sub (which that time has now arrived) I still had plenty of characters to play story levelling them up..... The server merge changed that as now I cannot play those characters I had already paid for because while I could have played up to 40 characters on each of the 3 UK servers 120 characters (had 90 but still left 30 empty slot to use and make new characters ) now I can only play 40 so lost 50 characters plus an additional 30 characters to make, now times that by all the other servers then times by 6 more accounts. So yes I do have regrets about money spent on this game. OK sure still have lots of character to play but that's not the point I had already paid for those extra characters. Only mention this as you and other have said no regrets on CC spent, well I do regret CC spent. In-fact as now you only get 5 character slots instead of 17, not worth 600cc anymore and not worth having to pay an extra 600cc on top of the 600cc I have already paid per slot to get them back, not to mention there probably is a max number you can have? but agree that's a different topic before anyone says so.
Sub is to me a different matter, I really enjoyed my time playing, every moment of it. The OP knew what he was doing, knew the situation before hand about less population on severs and pvp issues. I do agree BW should bring back the cartel passes but again that is a different issue than the sub cost, same as my issue with the server merge and losing items I had already paid for has nothing to do with sub.
No regrets QuinlanSaathis on money spent on CC? well wish I could say the same, sadly I cannot

Last time this happened to me at 100% I just quit game reloaded and it worked fine. Yes it is a risk as you may have to download it all again, however if its not working for you in any case, what have you lost by trying?

This is one of my biggest bugbears about the game, have to get rep points or whatever currency needed for venders that never seem to offer much. If the vender had new items every few months it be worth it. I think this is an issue for every vender not just light and dark ones on fleet. Cannot remember last time I used any of the cartel bazaar venders despite still having lot of cartel certs. Not used the security vender in over 3 years. Or the one by the Revan flashpoints. I think I have had one or two companion customizations but that's about it. Oh I tell a lie have had some utility decorations but that's is it.

It's not just the inconvenience of server merges that bug me. I had 52 characters on ToFN before the last merge and 38 characters on the other two UK servers. So 90 in total across all 3 on my main account. If I had dropped to F2P back then I would of only lost 6 characters. Now I have gone F2P on that account I have lost 45 characters, 39 of which I had already paid for. I lost just as many on the US servers and lost on all my other accounts too.
Merging these two servers I would lose an additional 86 characters on the US servers, again ones I have already paid for. BW clearly stated that no one would lose out when the servers merged last time, well that was a lie and only correct as long as you remain a sub. Another server merge along with losing characters also means yet another round of losing character names which is annoying but not a huge issue for me (will be for some) but losing hundreds of characters which I had already paid for is unacceptable. BW offer a F2P modal and as players we should not lose items that we had already paid real money for as we did last time. I lost over 200 characters across all my accounts and would lose even more this time round if such a server merge happened.

I just use the free ones I get from alliance crates. Never buy gifts. Don't like gifts as part of cartel pack either as you can lose companions as part of the story now and paying real money for these. While you can just reclaim them (except the temp comps that you can still give gifts to) It's just not the same, well not to me. Never will understand why players buy gifts be that with in-game credits or real money.

Personally I just think there should be another way to get floor plans other than conquests. I too used to do conquest only for the floor plans, now don't even bother to join in. While I still get conquest points for doing other things I am not actively doing them. I even used to use the blue jawa metal to buy mats to make my own floor plans, but BW basically said F*** off to that as well by removing the isotope and making crafting so time consuming and costly it became pointless. So yea guess my ships will remain unlocked. Well BW if that was the point to make guild ships undesirable. Well done count that exercise a success.
-
Its a cosmetic item nothing more, don't think its worth it don't buy it. Personally I don't want it never will, but if there was a item at that price I did want, then yes probably would buy. Items like this are considered luxury items. Same is in real life. You pay more for desirable items. Need and want are not the same thing.
-
Well NPC decoration packs at this point for me are only worth having if BW greatly increase the number we can have in every stronghold. At present cannot even get all of my companions in one. If BW were in increase numbers then yes all for more NPC packs. Would be nice though if BW could add a lot of the features that Xian_La mentions above when numbers of NPC's are increased.

Really wish players would read the development tracker.
Anyway yes an extra week of double CXP/XP will be nice. Hope to get one of my characters on the German server to rank 300. Plus get a few others past the 200 mark. Still undecided if I am going to get the Rishi stronghold or just save my credits to go for my guild ship, still only just over half way to get ship. Still have a few days to decide.

How many times over the last few months have players asked for an item to be on longer?
http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=952089 Just one thread as an example.
Secondly some armour sets may well be on at full price but once removed from feathered items is no longer there to buy. I know as the Dathomir Shaman set was a set I was after. I looked under armour tab a week or so for it but was not there, and yes did buy it today. Not every player plays every day. So a few days to a week is more than acceptable to me, yes would have been nice if it was on offer, but now have a set I've been after for some time.
As for improvements? Well what counts as an improvement for you may not be for everyone. I do think the cost of item is a bit OTT but it's is only cosmetic stuff none of which is needed to play. Most of your list would not be any where near my top ten of improvements and doubt very much, my top 10 would be on many other players top 10. .

I still have 3 keys unopened, I wonder if they will even work after 6 years? Using 2 keys at the moment for my accounts but one I think is on the way out. Had 6 of ebay a few years back, one never worked but had all 6 for just £10 plus £5 P&P so think it was a really good buy.
Would not know how to use my mobile for a key, guess once mine are all expended, I just miss out on the free CC. Must remember to remove the keys before they expire.

It’s a bug that started about 2 months ago. I also have problems with opening my collections and discovered my appearance terminal now has the same problems.
The way to fix it is to use the ctrl + U keys twice to reset your UI. That fixes it 9/10 times, at least until you change instances and then it often bugs out again.
If that doesn’t work, the only option is close the game and restart.
Good advice, I too am frequently having this issue, normally on one character, seems to work fine when switching to an alt. Unfortunately switching back does not fix it and only resets when I quit game and start game with a reload. Not tried ctrl + U, so will try that next time. Seems to happen more and more these days. Not sure when it started but seem longer than 2 months for me.

Well I think a galaxy chat would be to much. Be far to many talking at once.
An account wide ignore list would be nice.
-
Be nice as would any new cosmetic bundles.
-
That's because PTS has now been taken offline as mentioned in the development tracker a few days ago.

A nice fun post. Well done.

Maybe when and only when BW announce this games end date, would I even consider such a question.

I just tried Star Fortress Nar Shaddaa only for the companion. Every time I went up or down a level, used a lift my companion just disappeared and had to be re-summoned, every single time!
The last boss would not go below 50% health. no matter what I did zero damage. I only ever do Nar Shaddaa fortress as its the only companion I want form them, I have beaten it many times in the past with far less gear and zero stims. This time in 242 gear plus using the top level stim. What's Happening?

I always find these "let us kill" X threads nothing short of pathetic.

Are the cost of door unlocks correct on the PTS or are these still under review for when it go's live?
I like the size of the stronghold, but was disappointed at the starship. In-fact did not even know I was in it until I unlocked a door that said starport. I think it could look better from the outside. However that is cosmetic only. inside was spacious, could not really do much with the hooks as I transferred a character with little decorations unlocked. This was my last account and not spent as much on it. Unfortunately to use the PTS it had to be a sub account and this is my only one at this time.
The beach front is nice but really would need the right decoration for it , which we don't really have at present time. This last part is mainly those using it as a personal SH and not a PvP one. As I don't PvP myself not sure this would be the stronghold for me, but for those that do it's well done. Again the size of the stronghold is really nice.

Buying for guild is normally just a toggle down to guild option when buying, though this option may not be available on PTS. You must have the funds to buy, buying for guild is a lot more than buying for personal. You may need to deactivate your present guild stronghold to buy. Not sure how many strongholds a guild can have.
Yes you can remove items from a stronghold and put in another. Either by just pressing the hook and use pick up or use the pick up all items button. Remember though that only guild items can be pick up for another guild stronghold and personal items for personal. So you could not pick up items from personal to put in guild or visa versa.

I just hope whoever kept Arcann alive is gonna get lot of dirty looks from Reps and Imps alike, the bloke was oppressing both sides for years
Kinda like Elara/Quinn I hope some companions won't be ok with whichever side you go with and follow their own mind for once rather than blindly following PC around the galaxy like lost pups. I could imagine Senya/Arcann leaving to live in Zakuul as well.
Probably unpopular opinion but I really don't like an army of NPCs following my characters and be available to summon at whim. I'd like to imagine the characters have lives beyond scavenging for PC at every turn
I don't think what you said is unpopular or unrealistic (well as realistic as this game can be) I think its more that some players like me have spent a lot of time building up affection levels for some of our characters companions. So only from that point of view do I have concerns about the new story arc. If we were to lose them as we lost many of the original comps at the start of KOTFE. I do agree with you a lot of the companions would not follow your character into any situation. I really could not see Jorgan staying with a darkside character going back to the Empire, after all was not the troopers first chapter all about defection?
So yes on this I think we are on the same page, though from a story point of view it will be interesting even if I end up say no way would that happen. lol

It would be nice if BW do both a state of the galaxy (Which is already in the works according to development tracker) and a separate ones for companions. As the next story go's back to Republic vs. Empire there has to be a reason why certain companions stay with the outlander. Personally I could not see many republic character companions switch over to imperial even more so if you played your character as darkside. So I agree with the OP a write up on comps or even a chapter dedicated to companions would be welcome IMO.
I also wonder if you have switched factions by the end of the last FP how that will affect BW's next story arc. So for me even though I personally think going back to Rep vs Imp is a huge step backwards it will be interesting only because of the possible change of faction.
What happened to the payouts from Slicing Missions?

It only becomes worth it if you get a craft mission item from slicing lockboxes, then only for certain craft missions.
Agreed it just not really worth sending once you pass the immediate crew skill level. Its not just slicing, treasure hunting is the same, the item you get is worth less then the cost of sending crew out on the mission. BW as far as I am concerned ruined all crafting skills a long time ago for the most part. I still make dyes to used and the odd blue crystal for guild or sell on gnt, but hardly seems worth the effort these days to sell. Dyes still worth it to use for myself or guild but that's just one set of skills the rest not really, not as a solo player anyway..
