turrettrooper Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 (edited) While discussing with some people on my server, we had a general consensus that the one thing many of us would like to see are things like open world pvp, time wasters (like pazaac, swoopr racing, or maybe dueling arena), and a new and improved social hubs for both factions; these are things that I think would help make the old republic feel more open in a game that has to be compartmentalized because of planets. I love this game and there are many things about it that I love, but I feel like we need more player interaction options outside of just flashpoint/pvp instances and fun things too. Think if we could have our main hubs be cities like that on Makeb where you could duel by the waterfalls and soak up some very cool Star Wars scenery while you are going about your business, I think this would aid BW in that immersion factor that we know they're always talking about. Furthermore, sometimes you get sick of pvp and leveling, what would help continue to suck us into this game as opposed to something else more than having some fun games that we could do with other players. And, finally, open world pvp or raids, just tell me that doesn't sound great to have in this great game, the classic raiding of other factions hubs and maybe some illum revamping to bring it to life. I understand there are lots of engine requirements and things that Bioware would have to put some serious work into to make a lot of this functional, but these are things that I think would significantly improve the game if they were implemented in the long term time frame. As I said, I love SWTOR and would not like to play any other game, but these are just things that I would love for BW to take into consideration and implement to further improve it. I was wondering what some of the main things that you'd like to see changed are? Does anyone else see any of these things as good additions?

Mawduce Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 after they removed the player craftable endgame content im sure they are trying to restrict it back to how WoW does it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turrettrooper Posted April 23, 2013 Author Share Posted April 23, 2013 It is not well utilized and thus not very fun or popular that's why I said they need a revamp, but this post is about more than just open world pvp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not openworld PVP, if there is one thing guaranteed to scare people away it's being attacked by some pillock mid-quest because he enjoys fighting real people, either go on a PVP server or play in a PVP zone, but don't force it everybody. Although I would enjoy Pazaak and Swoop racing. Edited April 23, 2013 by AlexDougherty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, I didn't mean open world pvp for everyone, I should have clarified, I meant more of revamping illum or adding in illum-type scenarios where the whole area is based on pvp with a still open feel to it. What it boils down to is giving a game that isn't very sandbox-y a sandbox feel by adding in some features that make worlds that you cruise through just for story relevant to travel to. I think there's a way to implement this without being annoying and making the game feel less like a tunnel like it does now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mawduce Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 yes, the game does need to be more open. HOWEVER, the companies involved are scared to create that game. this game was designed to be a guided themepark like world of warcraft. it cannot support such systems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keilin Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 Personally I think there should be a main hub on say, Tatooine that is open to both factions.A nuetral city if you will. To give more the feeling of Star Wars like the movies... But that may just be me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
