Obviously the next race is Gungan. Eric already confirmed it.
I'll tell you what, then. Why don't you call me some time when you have no class?

Is this referral mic on? It's free stuff and stuff, in game.

Oh, there have been a lot of threads on the species that people want..... this thread is probably the one that is the longest running and most posted in: http://www.swtor.com/community/showt...&highlight=cel
If you haven't done so, I suggest putting your choices in there because that thread probably has the best chance of getting traction with the Devs.

But I'm more curious if there are going to do an official poll of the community among these 3 options they are looking at? This seems to be a very community-driven feature as it's totally dependent on player demand. Therefore, it only makes sense that they should poll the community BEFORE heading down the development road with the next species.

Who are these 3 species? Inquiring minds what to know. One of the main reasons we got the Cathar is because they were deemed a popular community choice in early polling. The Cathar were also put into the CM and we were told future species would depend upon their performance....therefore, leaving the species feature up to us to endorse or not endorse it with our Cartel Coins. As a result, the next species should be a highly community-driven choice. Will there be an official poll to determine which of the 3 will be picked?
The Community vote has been going on since this time last year. Check it out.

My guess would be the species they are thinking of are:
1. Togruta
2. Nautolan
3. Kel Dor

Personally I am hoping for Kel'dor. I would like to know why species take so long to make, we don't see new dialog or story so its a reskin how long does that take?

Forget about size and language ... jawas / ugnaut cant be fit in any of SWTOR classes. They cant be a jedi , bounty hunter , inquisitor ... they are just jawas stealing and selling broken droids

Jawas=gnomes

That's why I want them in game.

I've already stated in the past, if I can make a Jawa Sniper, they will have a sub for life. I stand by that statement.

I really don't get the Togruta love...can anyone explain me what's so attractive about this species?

and I think some people are setting themself for another major disapointment...with all the problems the Twi'lek created, i don't see them adding another species with tentacles like Nautolans. Togruta would also create a lot of clipping problems too. Also, remember that Kel Dor are not kissable...but this could be easier to ignore...

I think Duros and Mon Calamari would be more plausible...but I guess they could try to implement one of the 3 most popular species (Togruta, Nautolan and Kel Dor)

We should totally do Selkath. That wouldn't get weird to listen to incredibly fast AT ALL.

Togruta would be nice. That face paint is just so cool. The only thing I see getting in the way of that is there are a quite a few NPC Togrutas on Nar Shadaa that keep on having glitching issues.
