If BW added new classes.

An entertainer class that gives out buffs that improve the longer someone watches the entertainer perform

A medic class that crafts buffs and sells them at spaceports.

Pilot

Wishful thinking would be for BW to make an Open Space portion of the game with various Pilot classes attached to their Starfighters. Otherwise I honestly can't think of any other Star Wars iconic class that they haven't already given us. More and more I'm beginning to think Advanced class additions will be the future for this game.

Content-wise the game is set up for it. You have 4 hangars on every planet, including Fleet, to support only 4 classes. You can get around the hassle of changing all that content by just adding advanced classes to the game instead of entirely new classes. Having a Jedi Rogue advanced class would be cool. Stances would be different. Maybe even carry his/her lightsaber backhand style like Starkiller.

I'd much rather see a 3rd faction. Mandelorians maybe or the Eshka (probably butchered the spellings) would make a good third faction. Give us more of a DAoC feel in our PVP and such.

A Force Witch who uses one or more Lightwhips and some unique caster-type abilities.

A "squad leader" type class that specializes as a support class instead of a tank, healer, dps.

Maybe let their main thing be to have a pet out in groups and 2 out in solo situations.

That's just a big problem with a lot of MMO's now. It's all tank, dps, healer...there's no support classes. A tank, healer, dps, and a support class should be an ideal group. Maybe make FPs a bit harder and up group sizes to 5.

This isn't going to happen though. The game is too new and no races or classes will be made for a long long time. They still have to get out of the red from development costs and have a profitable product before they spend that kind of cash upgrading it. Maybe they already have, but I doubt it. They probably have at least 400-500 million invested in development, servers, production, etc. I really doubt they've made it up.

Couple that with people dropping subs and other anticipated games coming out, I think they'll be lucky to break even on this game. They've had 4 months to fix the game since it was released and hardly anything has been done.

As much as I looked forward to this game I'm sad to say it's just not the success many people thought it would be. It's fun the first time though (for some classes anyway), but faction imbalance and low populations kill level 50 content (even more for Republics who have trouble find groups for FPs at 50 due to extremely low Republic populations).

Droid engineer or creature handler would fit in nicely here with it being already companion based combat. I could think of some cool stories also. Go here and there to get DNA and stuff to breed exotic creatures. Rancor and krayt dragons please! Also collecting droid parts from around the galaxy like in kotor2 to make hk. Some classes like knight and trooper already get some form of droids but seeing others like medical artillery or assault droids would be hreat

I think we're good on classes. Sure they could add some more, but it would really just dilute the Star Wars feeling and be hell to try and balance, not to mention you'd have to come up with 2 at a time since they need to be mirrors.

At best I think they could try to add a class that uses a light-whip to get a mid-range force using DPS, but that's really just grasping at ideas.





I'd much rather they add additional species to the game, or additional specs within talent trees.

The Mandalorians are already alined with the Empire. While I'm sure there's splinter groups, I don't think it will make sense to have a whole Mandalorian faction.

Esk-kha's make even less sense. The race was all but killed off by the Infinite Empire, with the remaining Esk-kha imprisoned on Belsavius. Some might have escaped when the imperials ran there little prison break/riot distration but not enough to build a faction behind. I guess it's possible that other Esk-kha survived the attempted genocide of their race and are hiding out on some undiscovered planet. However still it would be hard to explain how they would be strong enough to be faction.

I swear I see this thread at least twice a week.




Pandas.

how about some sort of beastmaster? kinda like a WoW hunter.
