Just to get an idea of what people would liek to see.

please dont try to make the game like Pre cu or anything SWG guys. You know good and well they will not make the game like swg was in any of its forms.

heres what i would like to see.

1. a new type of leveling system

2. intricate customization for charatcers, something that really changes the style of your character physically and combat wise

3. light and dark system.

4. dungeouns with themes, options and consequences to them

5. a long road to become a great jedi.

6. very thought out training system for your powers

just a few, what abotu you guys.

Tie Fighter, Pre-XWing, style combat requiring a Joystick.  I'm a Tie Fighter veteran, they OWE me.

Mark my words, this game will fail if they don't do something to make it up to us Tie Fighter Veterans!

...the above was sarcasm/mocking...

Features I'd like:

1) Character Customization. That's from character creation, but also with later additions, such as new clothes/robes/armors/hairstyles etc.

2) A skill-system that allows flexible character customization. Class-based or no, I don't really care as long as i can customize things.

3) Alignment System. A must.

4) PvP between the alignments. Sith and jedi should not run hand in hand into "raids" *shrudder*

5) In-Depth storyline with multiple paths to choose from. Let me decide if I'm a hero or a villain!

6) Epic Story. I don#t care particularly how it is told, but a sort of Destiny-Quest or something along the Epic Quest in LotRO would be nice.

7) Large exploreable world/space.

That's it for now I think. :D

large explorable worlds!!!1 very important!!

Actual roleplaying....

And lets face it, only jedis.. take the exisitng jedi abilties and expand on them. And it can be done because the force unleashed is boasting a totally new set of force control then what has been previously known.

There is no way to make the other roles balanced in comparision to the jedies, so make the only race jedis.

though i like what your talking about, i think its folly to believe that jedi will be the only profession in the game. There will be more then that for sure. Im not sure f how much you every played a KOTOR game, but there were more then jedi in those games to make your character, so i will expect no different.

What do you think to having a character leveling system like in Final Fantasy 10 with its sphere grid system. As you defeat monsters/fiends you obtain the ability to move further along an intricate grid system activating parts of it as you go along it which upgrades your stats and skills. Each character has a set path, but you may choose to ignore this suggested path and vear off the path and head for skills and upgrades meant for other characters/classes. Each path gives upgrades heavily in stats to the class which the path is suited for, allowing any character to pursue any given career path.

This allows you to customise your character to your desire whilst still retaining an optimum path as an option. Of course your charcter will start with stats which favour a certain path, to still give rangers advantages at range and warriors advantage in melee, if they choose to follow their suggested path.

Has this been done in an MMO before?

I would like a feature where the game will not work unless you hook up electrodes to your nipples, and when you get hit with a light sabre, it shocks the piss out of you.

An end game based around open world PvP and not raiding or 'arena' style pvp. That is all I ask

I second this feature. :)

Does not have to be innovative at all, just not based on classes and an economy that depends on the people with tradeskills.

PvP

1) No battleground garbage

2) No going covert/overt garbage

3) Just fricken Good Vs Evil PvP!

3) Good call, that evil rebel scum must DIE! ;)

1. Good story driven world, like LOTRO, but with many options to do things which arent linear additionally like:

2. Housing, Player Cities

3. Jedi & Sith as class :D

4. Many robes, clothing, armour and things to wear like in SWG

5. A big, vast world, should be open in the planets like SWG

Actually I dont care about anything else, I mean its STAR WARS! As long as its not totally screwd, just please no sandbox game. I pefer good stories being told and quests and things to do. Just dropping me in a world isnt what I look for these days.

This is from a post I made on a similar thread tell me what you think.

This is a bit long I know OP only said ONE thing but...

I think the skill point system is the way to go.  Keep that but become a "class" through point allocation.  Then have a higher tier "class" or "classes" in higher lvls that rewards players who didn't make a hybrid and want to specialize in their class further.   You can be a hybrid but will never reach the 2nd tier of class.   Alternativley you could make a class for every hybrid combination and limit hybrids to only 2 classes. You can also have more than 2 tiers, 3 tiers even!  I think this would mix the long road leveling with the old school game.

++Don't Pinhole us into being a Jedi but make the Jedi route everything it should be (friggin awesome)

++Smugglers, Enginneers, Pilots, Soliders, Jedi, Diplomats.--- This would be a great start to the class base from their you could have 2nd and 3rd tier classes of off these (Hacker, Sniper, Bounty Hunter, Commander, Dark Side, Light Side,  all sorts of stuff.)

++I think Droids should be a playable "race"

++Open Space combat (giant space battles) and travel as well as vehicular combat and travel on planets.

++Seamless transition from Outer space to entering a planets atmoshpere and landing.  You would reaaly get an idea of how BIG the planet your landing on is and It would be cool to strafe enemies with my y wing.

++Within each class give extensive amount of things to do to make the game sandbox.  It would be awesome to have another game that runs like EVE, completely autonmously. 

++Unique crafting and "quests" for your chosen specialty.

+Reward exploration --give us so many planets and secret areas that there is an Explorer Class!  Let us unlock the secrets of the Star Wars world with interesting Lore behind it.

I think thats everything.  We will see though, I may be describing just my dream game

1) PvP

2) Player Looting

3) Sandbox

4) Extensive crafting system

5) Having something to do, always.

6) Frequent events of all sorts <--- this elaborates point 5 a bit more.

7) Player housing etc

8) Vehicles? Woot.

9) NOT a turn based combat system like the original KOTOR, I loved the games... but that just wont work in an MMO.

10) Harsh death penalties.

Isn't like every MMORPG out there turn based? Real-time FPS kind of combat wont work very well since not all have high speed connections.

Large open world with a variety of end games events you may or may not do. NO LARGE SCALE PVE RAIDING nothing over 10 man.  Pvp set up sort of like DAoC so it was your choice to participate or not and no player looting.
