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

The LFG system has been mentioned as a priority, but without a set timelimit or spesifics for changes. Could you maybe give a vague plan, if not more spesific? (Patch. 1.3, 1.4... 1.5? Same server or cross server? More visible LFG button? Etc.)

Could you please split the maintenance times to be performed at 2am separately for each area (NA East, NA West, Oceanic, Europe).

will there be enchants that you put on your weapon? like you get a chance to slow your enemy?

What is the current state of the game? Does BioWare still feel as confident about the game as they did before launch?

Please can we have an update on the plans for implementing same-gender romance options. All requests around this topic are either ignored (e.g. in the last three Q&A threads, despite being one of the more frequently asked questions) or given the same stock answer from six months ago. A little more information to at least confirm that this content is actively in development and ideally including something on current plans and likely time-scales would go a long way for those of us who are keen to see this aspect of the game in place.

I posted this in the CS section. May as well try here.


I had to abandon a level 14 legacy due to low server population (It was not always low) I have since rerolled on a new higher pop server. When the transfers do become available in the future, will we be able to combine that legacy XP? Would hate to lose all that when the starting over on the never server was necessary. (Old server PvP queues were 20-30 mins of waiting)

Hello Bioware.

I would like ask if you at some point in the future, are thinking about raising the offhand damage of weapons?

I don't know much about the Jedi Sentinel/Sith Warrior.
But, I've been playing alot of Gunslinger at the moment, and the offhand damage is seriously pathetic, sorry to say. I mean, at level 50, the damage increase from having a offhand blaster pistol is only 5-10% total standard damage increase?

Maybe implement a new talent point, or refine some older ones, that allow you to increase offhand damage.

To my knowledge a Gunslinger, is someone that is good at using dual wield.

Thanks again for a good game though.

Hi,

Are you considering adding multi-player content to the space 'mini-game'? e.g. As a whole or part Flashpoint or Operation? As an extension to this could that include the option for guild capital ships that could for the core of an Operation?

Will we be able to queue for warzones with groups of 8 players as soon as 1.2 hits?

FPS is a huge issue I understand, but my GPU (graphics card) is NOT being used, all processes are run through my CPU during game play. What is the cause of this?
