JovethGonzalez Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 (edited) Hello and welcome to the official Q&A thread for questions to be answered for the February 17th, 2012 Q&A blog post. As a reminder, we’ll be starting up a weekly Q&A blog series in which we will select ten questions from the community and post answers to them every Friday. We’ll have the next set of answers next week on February 17th, 2012, but before that, we need your questions! Please use this thread to ask your question (one per community member, so make it count!). On Tuesday at 2PM CST (8PM GMT), we will close this thread, select ten questions, and get answers to them for Friday’s blog post. In order to increase the chances of having your specific question answered and to help us keep the thread manageable, here are some guidelines on asking questions: Keep your question relatively short. Background details are welcome, but don’t go overboard.Please actually ask a question. We want to hear constructive feedback elsewhere in the Forums.Use common sense – we cannot answer everything, especially on far-reaching content. This should go without saying, but be respectful. Limit yourself to one question in this thread, please. You can always ask another question next week!And finally, as a reminder, this is not a discussion thread. Do not comment about what somebody else has posted. Any other posts apart from questions in the thread will be removed. With that being said, please ask away!

Kashtor Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 (edited) Is there any chance that we will see in future expansion packs / content releases perhaps different time eras / events and more playable races like Wookies or Trandoshans. If so is there any hints to when they are coming out and what are they? Edited February 11, 2012 by Kashtor Needed to add more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tehjai Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Are there any plans for devs (or BW employees speaking on the devs' behalf) to have a stronger presence on the forums to help alleviate game concerns? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam_C Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Eternity Vault and Karagga's Palace were flooded with issues that frustrated countless raiders. Do you plan on doing anything differently for the next tier of content to make sure the encounters are as close to "bug free" as you can get it?

Tunapiano Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 According to interviews and posts made by the Dev team, we have a very small idea of what is to come in the coming months. But as new Planets, Operations, Flashpoints and other end game content are added, is there anything about a level cap increase or better gear with higher stats? Some leaked data that came out within the past week showed us possibly getting Czerka Gear and going to Rakata Prime. It doesnt make much sense to have Czerka or more Rakata gear that has equal stats to what we have now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donaldus Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 I bought the collector's edition of SWTOR and I haven't really been impressed by the quality of items in the collector's edition store. Will there be more features for people who bought the CE in terms of items? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zilkin Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 When will we get proper automated LFG tool that preferably draws from a large pool of players ie. is cross-server? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linken Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 My friend and I currently have two guilds (one for Republic and one for Empire) would it be possible to allow cross-faction interaction between two opposite-faction guilds (mostly for inviting to groups or friending)?

TheCynic Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Can you please explain, in detail, what the indented design philosophy and goal of the crafting system was ie: how you expected people to use it, how you expected and how fast you expected people to be able to obtain Prototypes and Artifacts from it, and how giving commendation upgrades and orange gear fits into the overall scheme and itemization of the game. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giolon Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Female Twi'leks currently have some color restrictions based on faction that male Twi'leks do not. For example: Red female Twi'leks (not pink) can only be made on the Empire side, and Blue female Twi'leks can only be made on the Republic side. Male Twi'leks of either color can be made on both sides. Is this intentional, and if not, what do you plan to do to address this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEVINCE Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Are you planning on implementing any penalties to Warzone deserters, i.e lock out timers for early quitting or a cowardice debuff? I feel it's something that is needed in game due to the frequency of people bailing on a warzone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MusedMoose Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Can you give us any information on when and how same-gender romances will be implemented? Will our current companions be available for romances with characters of the same gender? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schwartzman Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Companions are very buggy and the conversation system seems broken (even though affection is maxed) when will this be fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barracudastr Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Are there plans to merge very low population servers, where even at prime time the server is very inactive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoogleNut Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 When will same gender romances be implemented and will the existing companions we've become attached to be included? The lack of sgras is seriously starting to affect the enjoyment of this otherwise amazing (bugs not withstanding) game from Bioware - a company previously committed to it's GLBT player-base. The lack of any new response is disheartening to say the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LagunaD Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 For purposes of determining how much Accuracy Rating is "enough" in PvE (the "Accuracy soft cap"), we need to know the maximum avoidances for Flashpoint/Operation bosses. What is the maximum Melee/Ranged and Force/Tech avoidance a Flashpoint/Operation boss currently has? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthMechanus Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 At one point, there was talk of white lightsaber crystals being available. That has been revealed to be just a rumor now.
