How about make the content that is there worthwhile? Non repetitive, worth doing (side missions could be localized and spontaneous), stories need more depth and pull.

Just my opinion. Adding more "flavors" and "spices" don't fix a bad pot of stew. You have to go back and simplify it. I got bored of the confusing, repetitive missions at level 20, pvp'd all the way from there. Haven't even finished class quest. Valor 75.

Smuggler and Agent cover
Proton Topedoes
Auto stack mats from inventory

Seem like very simple fixes, yet they remain since launch.

1. Companion Quests - I was originally excited from these only to be disappointed when only the first companion for any given class has quests of their own. I think all Companions should have quests.

2. Companion Gear Color Match

3. More Customization in our space ships.

1. More customization - To me this entails many things. A) More orange armor sets, and reduced cost for mod swapping. There are a lot of sets in the game that I would love to use, but there are no orange versions of them, so they don't end up being as good, stat-wise. B) More races, and non-human looking/speaking ones. I would really like to play a Wookiee. C) The "barbershop." Let me color my own armor, change the options I originally chose, etc... D) More, and better creation options. I don't know what the obsession with the "balding" look is or why so many hairstyles have it. E) Match to chest and hide helmet for companions. It would also be nice if, when offered a companion gear award we could get that piece for ALL companions instead of having to choose. Lower the sell price if necessary. This would allow for easier switching between companions for differing gameplay.

2. Individual loot drops - I hate the whole "need/greed" dynamic. There are games out there that use individual drops in group play. Even if it's not something you can use or sell for much, it's nice to know you always have a % chance, instead of a % chance, and then a 1 in 4 (or whatever) chance.

3. Companion party mode - I know others have mentioned this. I got the idea while playing my Trooper that it would be cool to be able to actually play some missions as Havoc Squad, and have them all out there. This could be a PvE only option.

1. Character customization. This includes a "barbershop" feature to change hair, haircolor, facial hair, complexion and makeup for the female characters. Also a hood toggle for Jedi/Sith that makes them look more like their archetype. Ability to color clothing individually and not just match to chest as often times the best look for boots or gloves ect don't match right and look way off from what you would think is how it should match. This would also include the hood/helmet and color matching options to our companions. They are a huge part of our gameplay and story, it's sad they look like skittles unless you buy them end-game gear. Oh... give Miralukas more masks. That plain white strip of cloth on the icon for the species? PLEASE?! Maybe even let them have a little facial hair if it doesn't clash with the mask, cause I think that would really make me play one dead-on.

2. Class adjustments. I play a Guardian, however I'm not happy with the hoods or the fact I'm so squishy in AOE damage all the time. I'd like to not take so much AOE damage I need more heals than a tank in some fights. I'm sure other classes could use a quality of life increase in those small degrees. Like Shadows/Assassins needing a little more survivability solo if they're not a tank. And I think all classes need some way to soak tech/force damage passively because it seems to be the reason Shadow tanks are great at almost everything.

3. More races. Jawas I'd litterally pay for the game again for a jawa. Even if it's not the traditional class story and I have a jawa-only story, I'd accept only having droids as companions for the cop-out. Just because of how awesome it would be to have a jawa sage. Togruta, Wookie, Rodian.... all of those and more. Course with that we need more character slots and at least 4 would be awesome.

That's not what your original post stated or implied. Infact, it stated (see highlights in red):

There would be some sort of faction spread throughout the galaxy (e.g. mandalorian clan-hutt conglomerate) posting these bounties (from unknown republic/empire employers) and eventual rewards like sliced GTN credit chips (large balances) and premium content(ship housing upgrades/new companions/mount/rare custom gear/titles/etc.) Players would be given a number of randomized bounties on every planet by this faction.

Players would have the choice to take bounties on Republic or Imperial NPC from this conglomerate faction. These quests would reward the player with a renown increase/decrease and credits/random rewards. The faction of the NPC you killed would place a bounty on the player's head and make you bounty-flagged to all other players. It'd give you a bounty status, similar to being PVP flagged, which disappears when your bounty is collected (you are killed - No one could just log out and wait out a timer). Players who collect on bounty-flagged players would get a decent renown gain in the direction they are leaning (loyal/traitor).

Players with traitorous renown and an active bounty could be collected by both factions, so you'd be hunted by Republic and Imperial players. The traitorous rewards would be possibly a bit more attractive than their safer loyalist counterparts but you'd need to risk that increased PVP to get the rewards. Some players may prefer to RP loyalist and not worry as much about rewards.

Every daily/weekly NPC would be scaled to the player's level (much like the recent event bosses) so it'd bring players of every level to some lower level planets.

e.g. Renown Scale:
+1000 Loyal
-
- Neutral (Starting Point)
-
+1000 Traitor
Now, if I have the choice to NOT EVER be the hunted, and have to sign up to hunt, or be hunted, then I'm fine with it.

But let us not de-rail the thread.

To the Community Manager, this thread will keep going until a response from the appropriate dev team is laid out. With all these new MMO's coming out, paying $15 for no new content and timely fixes (such as optimization, bug fixes) is a deal breaker and will eventually lead to even more cancelled subscriptions.

1) Chat bubbles & more character customization i.e. Kel Dor & Nautolan species.
2) Weather Cycles, Day/Night cycles (This to me adds a lot of replay value) even on Aldaaran WZ
3) Open world PVP + new WZ every 6 months untl we have about 8

Bonus: Overhauled Space Combat, taking the current space and putting it into an arcade or something.

1) The game is going F2P anyway with a cash shop
2) The dev team is working as fast as they reasonably can to add content and fix things
3) This is a great constructive thread except when posts like yours are made.
