Official Q&A Thread for March 2nd, 2012 Q&A Blog Post

Ok after going through 20 pages I only saw one for Windows Phone... but none for Web or mobile content. Are there any plans for some mini games? Maybe we could get a game that allows us to actually take our companions on the quests we can send them on in-game. Or what about galactic market access app to check or add items (ebay like?). Or an email app... Any tablet/slate apps planned?

So many things to ask but my main question would be: What mobile/web content do you plan on having?

Ok after talking to a very helpful forum member I found my answers back in the 17 Feb Q&A post/blog.

So no question, but thanks for a great game and I'm excited to see what the future holds.

Will you ever add Social class's such as Entertainer's and Crafter's (see SWG), as quite frankly at the moment, the game is seriously lacking in Community, and an Economy.

Crafting is mundane and pointless, player's are not involved in it, or do they have any interaction with player's other than the GTN. Let alone the fact they make nothing of any use, only for themselves, there are a few item's that generate sales, but in the grand scheme of things, Crafting is a companion mini game that is soon completely left behind once a player reaches 50, and can obtain everything better than crafted, from a few dailies.

Cantinas are in game and unused, anywhere. Why are there not RP classes that appeal to a completely different style of player, other than Raider's and PVP'ers. These 2 sub categories of the player base do not equate to your entire player base, in fact I would estimate they make up 1/3 of it. RP'ers and social orientated player's are completely left out of the game.

THE PVP CODEX/CODEX IN GENERAL................


WILL there be any type of adds to it. As is, its horribly shallow. Doesnt even track pvp kills or warzones wins/losses.


Every basic mmo has this cept this one.




So, how about it?

When and how will SGRAs and Flirts be implemented?

Will we ever get new PVE or PVP gear? (Even if it's still BattleMaster stats, or Champion stats. A harder to get, yet cooler looking gear would be nice.)

Alot of people ask about seeing a Damage/Healing meter for SWTOR. I came up with an idea, why not have a screen similar to the PvP screen after each boss that will show total damage/Healing and DPS/HPS. This could seems to be a compromise. Is there any work on that aspect that alot of people want to know, how am I doing?
So my overall question is: Are you working on some sort of way for people to see how they are doing in Flashpoints and Operations, damage and healing wise?

Combat Log?

Are all weapon-types supposed to have craftable blue and purple recipes? Can you please do a check on a couple of the weapon types including Scatterguns with Cunning, and aim-based melee and let us know what you find?

I'm US Military stationed overseas and many of my friends play. We are very much looking forward to the Asia Pacific servers being released, but we are concerned about character transfers.

Will character transfers be allowed between US and AP servers? Re-rolling and leveling all over again just to be on more local servers would be a real pain. Not to mention rotating back to the US or getting stationed in EU - it'd be huge to the military guys that play to be able to transfer our characters from region to region.

Durning my bata testing phase I noticed vendors called Commendation Vendors, These vendors would allow you to trade in your commendations for new ones at a cost of 2-1.
Just to clarify; If you had 6 Tython Commendations and you wanted more Coracaunt Commendations you could go to that vendor, give them the 6 Tython commendations and get 3 Coracaunt Commendations in return. The vendors were located on the Capitol Planent and Fleet of both factions respectivly. Once the game went live however the vendors were gone.
Will they be comming back, and if so when?
