Mmmm...

1. Paid transfer system. No limits on what server you can go. This should include options to change your race,sex and name.
2. Cross Realm flashpoints and pvp.
3. Better travel. Right now, going between planets is a pain. Add options like "teleport to ship" or to set somewhere as "home" so you can teleport there whenever you need.

A few extras:
4. Add more quickbars! I'm the kind of player that needs to have everything on a quickbar (even if not used frequently), and I'm dramatically running out of space.
5. Add more customization options for the UI.
6. Mod swapping cost should be much less expensive (or even free).
7. Add more crafting recipes that are competitive at end-game.
8. While I don't think a "Jump To Lightspeed" system would be so good. I still would love "X-wing vs. TIE fighter" type scenarios to play either alone or with friends.
9. Add more mini-games. Pazaak, Sabacc, pod-racing, holocron-like scavenger hunts could be nice options.

1. Cross-server transfers / consolidation of all characters to a single server with added character slots. (Free for cross-continental transfers/people who have been here since the beginning.)

2. Open world PvP.

3. Nightmare mode flashpoints.

These are the more unique of the RPGs and if you think about it... you always go to point x to get y and maybe fight some people.

Heck, that describes my job on a daily basis!!!

The fun is in unique environments, the challenge (yes, harder and more unforgiving games are better), and the rewards you get.

Exactly. And that is why I felt ToR did an awesome job of not making it feel so bland. There were a lot of quests involving things besides kill x and get y. You had to save people, plant bombs, turn off gasses, etc. But it was just go there do it and return. The cut scenes, environment, etc. made it a lot more enjoyable.

But there is no other system really. The Secret World even does this and there is no levels. People just need to realize that, that is how it is. I would love for a complainer to come up with a better system that will get people to max level without running short of quests.

1. Some general polish and bugfixing
2. Character story progression (not FP's or Operations)
3. My quickbars, they activate global cd without fire an action, fix for that,

1: Full color pallete armor dyeing. If you like the style of an armor but you hate the color you are just plain out of luck. And make it for the companions too.

2: Space Combat more like JTL. I like Space Combat but I would like it so much more if it was free flight in a ship of my choosing.

3: More companion customization.

1. Save Skill Tree Template
2. Change Advanced Class
3. See #1 and #2

I would actually come back and play if I could have #1. It's a simple thing but I tire of having to take screen shots and write down all of the different options I've chosen over time just because someone doesn't want to implement saving a snapshot of the skills for me as a template.

Thanks,

These are at the top of my list:

1. More class/companion stories
2. Either more flexible in-game UI customization or else addons. And mouse-over healing
3. More things to do at 50 other than dailies, flashpoints, and operations.

Can I add a couple more?

4. character/guild server transfers
5. More character customization
6. cross-server wz's/fps
7. Anything to make galaxy more alive and explorable
Wardens of Fate / Alea Iacta Est
The Tarkus Legacy ~ The Harbinger/Jedi Covenant

I know it says three, but I have five. Sorry, I just couldn't narrow it down any further!
  1. Small things to make the worlds feel more real, i.e. the ability to sit in the chairs at a cantina, day/night cycles and more weather conditions on planets, etc.
  2. Better customization features for companions so they look more unique from everyone else's, i.e. hide headpiece and color match to chest for companions, more companion customization kits to choose from (I want at least 12 different options per companion), etc.
  3. More mini-games! I want swoop racing and pazaak!
  4. Animal mounts! Don't get me wrong, I do like the speeders, but I also want to have my own Tauntaun, Bantha, Dewback, etc. It would make it feel much more like Star Wars if, for instance, when I went to icey planets like Hoth or Ilum that I got to ride around on my very own Tauntaun!
  5. Ship customization! Being able to paint your ship different colors and also to display things you may have gathered on your journeys instead of just shoving them into your cargo bay.

3 things is not enough to fix this game, since it is fundamentally broken and requires a complete overhaul of the engine, the quests and most mechanics - after firing half their team they will only be able to get small changes in.
