I apologiz to the present DEVs at that chat, that the community isnt able to read any press releases or to ask any intelligent questions nor follow a conversation in chat.

I also have to critize Brannoc for not picking a larger variety of questions.

Still I want at least to put my questions here (as well as I did in the GCW forum), so mabye one of the DEVs is willing to answere these, although the community as a whole missed a great opportunity ask them to you directly.

To Space Ranger and Shadowbrak regarding the new expansion:

• Are the new quests still just, get mission - go there - kill it - go back mission types or will a bit more RP be involved like choosing from multiple possible answeres?


• Are all mission repeatable over and over again?


• Current mission answere in Secrets of the Syren are although a bit more multiple choise have almost no effect the story since they just abort the conversation, so you have to do it again. Will the new mission, if they involve more conversations and multiple answeres will have different endings depending on your choices?


• In the Press released is mentioned a new "sidekick" system. What will it look like?


• Also are mentioned the increasing usage of instances, will these be created for each group/sidekick-group individually?

To Directing Rogue_5 as Producers and Julia Torres as LEC Producer with an eye on the XP changes:

• As this is for high level combat only, how are the plans to involve the -not so high but still very skilled- crafter and entertainer community in this expansion? Will there be new rescource types and loot components and schematics as reward only? Or mixed quest types for crafters combat profession like the DWB too ?


• As you stated that you wanted to avoid forced interaction by removing Battle fatigue, isnt giving out schematics as reward a different kind of forced interaction?


• You stated that you didnt wanted to exclude one profession from game content, thus allowing jedi in the GCW, isnt this planet excluding all crafters and entertainers from another whole expansion including their content?


• If above question is not the case what will be the content for crafters, entertainers, crafter-combat hyrbid templates in the new expansion besides admiring high lvl characters/jedi in their uberness as little poor normy and side kicks?


• It was also mentioned the smugglers arent allowed to be the only ones to be able to smuggle since this would exclude other profession from this content, but isnt the fact that only MBH are able to hunt player jedi excluding all other profession from this content too?


• Since you tried to tone down the exprience gain to reduce the influx of jedi but failed. How will you limit the numbers of jedi, since in about a month or two everybody will have a jedi?

If any of you or any other DEV would be willing to answere these questions...

... yeah that would make a great start into the weekend ....
