Have plans to implement war in game, with objectives like a massive warzone with huge numbers of players? About pve commendation caps, elite commendation cap is much easy to achieve, and ultimate commendation cap after dread war update became very easy to achieve, bw have plans to expand this caps?

Do you have any plans to answer the community about the loot distribution problems that occur, thousands of posts have been made and no reply for over 1,5 year.

Do you plan adding more star wars planets (kashyyk, dagobah, naboo ,dantooine) and  if yes when can  we expect them?

Has there been any tangible thought to fixing the few engine bugs that seem to still plague the game?  I love the game, as do my brother and sister, but we can't help but see that whenever you are near other players or sometimes even by yourself, the fps drops like a stone.  It's most noticeable in PVP. 

So, has there been any real thought into fixing some of the issues the engine itself has?  I remember James Ohlen making comments about the engine itself, but for the life of me my google-fu is lacking.

when will we get a legacy bank?

What's your current stance on letting addons into the game?

Gantemis

1.Will you consider changing the sub to be simular to the "Rift model" since subs have been dropping and removing those silly restrictions to ftp players and giving to subscribers better rewards

2. Will you continue the class story lines since that was one of the best part of the game

3.Will you allow free space exploration instead of giving us loading screens

4.Will introduce new alien playable races

5.Will we see more events instead of seeing the same ones repeating again and again.

There are many other things i want to ask i'll put them in another post.

When will you give us promised content of changing hood to get it on or off. You announced it like at patch 1.4 and you said "with next big patch we'll give it to you" it's more than 1 BIG patch.

As a sith warrior (I play both juggernaut and marauder) I only ever use Quinn as my companion. He is way more effective than any of my other companions, which is a great shame. Are there any plans to increase the usefulness of each class'  less popular companions?

Any chance of acquiring SWG and opening it back up officially, and to play it you would need to subscribe to SWTOR. SWTOR sub = $15, SWTOR with SWG sub = $25?

I reckon if you did this you subscription figures would increase by at least 100x  I alone will be needing several accounts! Ka-ching!

Then we can have best of both worlds, and you need not have to turn SWTOR into something like SWG.

Hi,

 

Can you kindly answer the following:

 

1) I understand that season 1 will be coming during the same timeframe, what should we expect from it?

2)How do you plan to deal with further saturation of player queues?

3)Will we have the option to queue for either arenas and classic warzones without the ranked aspect?

4)Will spaceship gearing change significantly with the new patch?

5)How will a Hutball styled arena balance strategy, and outright killing? 

6)With new avenues being introduced, and old avenues for a more open pvp experience being unfullfiling, and feeling less developed, How do you plan to reinvigorate the existing open worlds?

In my opinion, would it not be awesome to have a quick travel/Queue option, and have kills drop WZ comms? This adds incentive.

 

7)Are there new Balancing coming for Merc and Sorc, and Commando and sage classes for Ranked WZ?

 

IG-88

Will force users ever be able to construct their own lightsaber?

 

Will we ever have a meaningful and challenging crafting, instead of the childish farm puzzle of placing the horse and cow in the corresponding slot?

 

Will there be player housing?

 

 

DocBrody

There are a lot of myths and rumors about the engine of SWTOR being "problematic", could you elaborate on that for a bit and tell us if there are any major revamps coming to improve graphical features, efficiency, loading times, possibly 64 bit support?

Will the 2.5 "Balance patch" also include PvE changes and not only PvP as shown on this news ?

 

As a Jedi Guardian I don't care about rooting unrootable Boss and hope you'll hear our complaints about the RNG ruling our DPS making it crappy or just average.

Only few days after arenas launch, we are facing a lack of player queuing in rated arenas. One solution to drastically increase number of queuing players in all time zone, could be the implementation of cross-server solutions. Can we expect the x-server for PvP in the next weeks ?
