Patch 1.4 What do you want?

Someone doesn't know what the hell he is talking about does he?

1.) They have been working on it for a LONG time, since way before launch, they already announced they'd be released this year and now we know that companions is a main focus of 1.4 which itself is much bigger content-wise than 1.2 was.

2.) BioWare themselves said they know this is not some small minority you people would like to make it out to be, BioWare has the single largest LGBT following in the entire industry.

Also,

3.) So all these Rated Warzones, etc... that people keep whining on about is a priority but content that could expand upon the story, the main point of the entire game, must sit at the back of the bus, because YOU don't care for it? please, we've waited and asked for this longer than any other feature in the game.

Please know your facts before you post.

More content to encourage a community to grow.

Multiplayer space missions - Realistically on rails space missions are here to stay, but you can still improve it. Make it so you have multiple people controlling ships, make their paths intersect enough so that you have to watch each others backs, ramp up the difficulty etc.

Mini-Games: Pazaak, races, etc. Anything to encourage something beyond sitting motionless on the fleet surrounded by 17 others doing the same where no-one talks until someone comes on here to cry about a lack of community.

Legacy Mission - Doesn't have to be a huge amount of work, recycle and existing map (Say the governers mansion on Corellia) for a legacy mission, played once a week with a toon of your choice (and only once per week for entire legacy) you take a single player mission with your other legacy members as NPCs (think that trooper mission where your given all but your current companion as elites). Reward an inheritance piece of gear. Simple recycling of stuff that's already there. Looks like a new additon.

I would really like to see them Move away from this whole "one patch every 3 months" thing.

I mean, we all pay $15/month, why not implement things as they are finished? I'm not saying that i'm not getting my money's worth, but since i'm constantly paying, it would be cool for them to recognize that and not make us wait 2 months for something that's finished now.

What would you prefer: an ice cream cone once a month, or a gallon of ice cream once every 3 months?

Little things are the most important. The hood toggle (seriously? Not a single piece of hood down gear for jedi?) for example.......i'm okay without a new operation coming out every month if they make the game more enjoyable in little ways (like actually being able to see my toon's face)

My wants are


Guild ship
New planet (Just hopeful)
More dailies that are interesting
New tier gear
More companion quests
New companions
New class (I know this won't be happening for a while but still)
A way to change my phaser from stun to kill.

Well, they said 1.4 would be a content patch, so what do I want?...

1. Another operation. Operations are fun and exciting for me, I want them to keep making them. I hope a new one is as hard/harder than Explosive Conflict, people need difficult goals to work towards.

2. Another Daily area. Since Daily quests can be done Daily, they can get quite tiresome if they're always the same. I really enjoy the Black Hole for its quest variety and the fact that I don't have to travel for 15 minutes between quests (exaggeration). I hope there is another new area, perhaps more difficult and with a more ambitious design.

3. More gear! Make it cool and take time to get. I like Earning things.

4. Additional small features: put in new Legacy things, Titles, Achievements, Mounts, whatever, I like it all. Would enjoy being able to choose WZs (and hey, a new WZ if they can, though I'm content with the 4 we have now)

(Unrealistic Honorable Mention: A cross-faction FP or Operation. Something big, involving a 3rd party, that the Empire and Republic have to face together to defeat. Include dialog full of taunts and threats between party members. )

I know that SWTOR kinda feels like it's in a hole right now, but there's just so much damn potential that I really want it to keep going for a long time.

Be careful what you wish for. You just might get it.

Oh god yes, please yes.

I'd rather have 250,000 calm, realistic and civilized subscribers than 1.3 million whiners/trollers/QQers.

A PvP revamp and true open space

We all know the "facts" and how many times they have changed. I know the complete history on the matter.

However, maybe you missed the part where they lost 100's of thousands of paying customers, 1/3 of their employees, and the game itself doesn't even function correctly. I won't even mention the majority of people that have been asking for Space Content, more Flashpoints, more Warzones, Rated PvP, World PvP, more armor and weapons, more vehicles, more events, etc etc etc.

But even those things can't happen until they fix the important problems first. Or are you planning to stand in Fleet with your digital boyfriend all by yourself? Which by the way, eventually runs out of dialogue and interaction and just follows you around an empty server.

I'm just stating that priorities come first. I'd like to PvP in Space, but right now, I would like to play without my video card melting.

Assuming they started working on it when they announced it, 9/13/2011, they would have only had about 8 months give or take to do it. As for the companions being the focus of 1.4 and it being released later this year, could you provide a source for that?

You're reaching if you think it will expand the story. The only thing I would be expecting is for them to redub some of the Voice Acting changing such things as when companions say him/he to her/she and vice versa for the romance-able companions. That isn't expanding anything, it is just leveraging stuff that already exists.
