Would also be nice if on your travels you could be randomly attacked, or face ship malfunctions which would bring on a little minigame.

EDIT: I'd also love for a little space pirate to board my ship and not realized he's just walked onto a sith lords ship
This wouldn't be bad as long as it was a toggleable option in your preferences rather then forced on players. Some players would like this while others would hate it.

Man, in Sw universe travel from systems could be some hours to several days. I doubt you like the realism. For me the good game is a mix of realism and fun, if something is too realistic but avoid the fun and time played, well, this will never happens.

Some ideas i had:
Space FlashPoint / Operation
Guild Quest/Story
I had thought of something along these lines as well. Even if it is not part of the big secret space project, I would still love to see a Return of the Jedi like opeation in which half of the raid is on the ground and the other half is in a space fight against a giant station or something.

I have no doubt it will not be something remotely close to JTL. I figure they will dumb it down to something like button smashing ground combat, and auto target tracking. That is even if they make something more than a console arcade minigame. I'm not saying they will.

Real Star Wars space combat please, not Star Wars Fox! Maybe some PvP and flight too?

I mean more realistic as opposed to instant travel. Maybe from 3 - 5 minute travel in which time you can talk to companions or do whatever else. Or.. maybe you could go to your quarters and sleep which would speed it up?

Why? Your companions will have maybe 5 responses to cycle through? What else is there to do? You have cargo access I guess but that's not really needed. And once you arrive it's not like you are booted off the ship and don't have time to talk to your companions or check your cargo.

So I'm really not seeing how this would do anything other than annoy a huge amount of players that already hate travel in this game and after the space station crap are really not going to want to put up with this.

Unless of course you could simply turn it off in the options menu.
