I think that all criminals / Bounty hunter should be part of there own faction and NOT PART of the SITH OR JEDI they should be free of the republic and the sith so to show they are not really aligned with any side, to show they don’t care about who gets hurt as long as the pay is good

yeah i think linking them to 1 side or the other kind of limits the job opportunities

i think for this kind of character it is more about where you start off in the game and where you take it and what jobs you go for will then be your own desision

The problem is that I think that idea of Bounty Hunters working both sides of the fence is wildly unrealistic in the SW Universe. 'The enemy of my enemy is my friend', same goes that if a BH is doing jobs for the Republic... then the Sith would see him as an enemy. Similarly, if the BH was doing jobs for the Sith and killing Republic/Jedi troops.. I can't see them embracing him with loving arms.

I would say its more of a grey area when it comes to criminals as I reckon they would have more acceptance and an honor among thieves that a BH is just 'doing a job' and 'no hard feelings'. Not taking it personal, but BHs are a more part of life for the criminal ilk. Because of this I imagine that the majority of BH jobs would come from the Hutt faction or other Criminal types, and can't imagine them forcing BHs to do Sith or Republic missions.

I think the "criminal" classes, with the exception of "smugglers" should be a part of the Empire faction.

They're the bad guys in the movies.

If they did a third party faction I'd rather it not be something that's normally "neutral" like "hutt" or "fringe" faction.

If they were going to do a 3-faction Star Wars MMO I would want it set in the Legacy era.
Legacy Novels:
  • Imperial Remnant
  • Vong
  • New Republic
Legacy Comics:
  • Sith Empire
  • Galactic Empire (Fel's empire)
  • Galactic Alliance

I'd especially enjoy the comics legacy era.

I agree. There should be a criminal syndicate controlled by the Hutts. This is more than feasible with Nal Hutta being in the game. But as part of this syndicate they earn reputations. The way reputation worked in Matrix Online you could work for any faction as long as they wanted you. The more you did missions against a faction the less they would want to hire you. It should be up to individual mercs and bounty hunters which jobs they want to take and whether they earn a reputation killing sith or killing Jedi. They just couldn't do both for very long because if they were "heroic" both sides would know about them.
