Xo-Lara Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 Just in case the Stronghold Decoration Suggestions sticky isn't still being read, I'll repost my suggestion from the Answers Forum here as well. I noticed that decoration releases seem a little haphazard at times. Because of that, I often find myself not wanting the decorations from some packs or not being excited about them. I think it would help to standardize decoration releases so that everyone knows ahead of time what is being aimed for with the packs How about this: 1 matching furniture set with a theme, possibly connected to a recent release. (for instance umbaran dining table with a matching chair, a Copero Kitchen Set, or Zakuulan bed with matching nightstand and wardrobe) Something like you would find in a home, office, or business.1 or 2 lighting decorations1 or 2 wall decorations (display screens, tablets, pictures, and so on)1 or 2 flooring options1 or 2 environmental decorations be it an outdoor item or plant. If it is a plant, please include a potted and non-potted version.1 personnel decoration1 or 2 odds and ends decorations: towers, buildings, signs, structural pieces like pillars and fences1 or 2 misc decoration: Whatever you want to fit in that does not fit into one of the above categories Decoration offerings should also include at least one or two interactive decorations or at least animated decos. Going back to my ideas from Idea for Differentiating Cartel Pack Decos and In Game Drop Decos; Silver, gold, and platinum should be determined by the level of activity or interactivity in the deco. Also, I still support going back through and stripping old assets for new decos. Players love recreating things they see in game so it isn't necessary to create completely new art each time. The past pattern of releasing interesting art from the older assets should still work well. To that end, I am still maintaining a running list of things in pre-existing art that would make great decos. Much of it has been turned into decos already, which I appreciate, but much of it is still waiting it's turn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xina_LA Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 (edited) I really like your idea of a more balanced decoration set for each pack. I'm fairly happy as long as the decorations -- * Don't require a Centerpiece or Starship hook. We have far more huge decos than places to put them. You can tell they're not very popular because they're always cheap on the GTN. * Don't have bugs. There are decorations you can claim but not place, decos that do nothing when you click them, and so forth. Where was the QA on these? When will they be fixed? * Work in more than one hook size. Decos from old packs usually work in 2 or 3 different hook sizes. For awhile, most of the decos released only work in one, which greatly limits their usefulness. This seems to be improving a little lately. Hooks matter; what do you do with a Fenced Combat Arena or Hex Field Combat Arena when you can't put anything in it? * Are practical in the stronghold locations we have. Most of our stronghold space is interior, so a bunch of industrial items don't really fit. Where did they expect us to place the Iokath Forge Garbagefall? I've only seen it used once -- dumping into the Manaan ocean. What use is an Iokath Transport Tube linked to nothing, going nowhere?

AlaricSevGirl Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 I want more fish for my aquarium and they should at least have them swim around. It looks terrible with only 2 fish that just sit there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xina_LA Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 (edited) I want more fish for my aquarium and they should at least have them swim around. It looks terrible with only 2 fish that just sit there. In the meantime, you can add more sea life to your aquarium using pets. Many species like being underwater. If you want "crabs", try Lylek, or Makrin. Other water-loving species include Ginx, Jurgoran, Nathema spawn, Terentatek, Underwalker, Varactyl, and Wriggler, The Zakuul Miniprobe looks great as an underwater explorer.

Damask_Rose Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 What I want are more regular type items. Furniture, lights that actually cast light, house plants, that sort of thing. More personnel that are doing things other than waving guns around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
