How aboutworking on the concept ofplayer cities; make the running and maintaining of a city much more pro-active and time consuming,so thatif mayors and their residents don't put in the effort to keep their city thriving, they lose city ranks, and eventually the city itself, giving those of us who lost out on the chance of starting a citythe opportunityto take their place.

Also a way of keeping track of the city caps and populatation per planet would good so we can keep an eye on when other cities are starting to fail.

WHEN WILL IMPERIAL HATS work in-game?

We waited almost a year for these hats which are a major part of the Imperial forces in the movies. Yet there not in-game. You said we need a image designer to give us a military hair cut to wear it, yet the minipub with ID went passed and we got no Imperial Hat that we can equip.

Why? Is it that hard to give us a miliitary command hat?

How about making badges more useful by allowing people with lots of badges access to other areas. For example you could have an NPC hiding out in the wilderness somewhere that will only talk to you if you have 40 exploration badges, at which point he'll give out high level solo quests or something.

Or have more faction quests that you can't take until you've got 5 rebel/imperial themed badges (corvette, cries of alderaan, etc).

Could give a purpose to getting badges other than just a line of text.

NPCs that use mounts (both for combat, and just background characters in cities).

And NPCs that can drive vehicles, maybe with the ability to do racing/gambling missions against them.

I would like to see a few things:

1) No skill points required for Politician Profession, just like the future Piloting Profession.

This will encourage people more to run for mayor of their current player cities, rather than have a mule created for such a thing. There is no imbalance to any other professions by having this one so skill points charged for it is just silly.

2) City Chat implemented.

This would get everyone inteh city involved and a chance for them to meet eachother. It also makes it so they dont feel like an extra head just there so city can have a Rank. Have it something like /cc or /ci for a comand. The chat channels your create just arent too friendly and donthave enough control over it.

3) Merchants or anyone with vendors dont have stuff go in their inventory when getting stuff off.

This is an issue where when we purchase items offered or withdraw sales to relist they go in inventory. We have a stockroom and when half goes in inventory and half is in stockroom it is a small pain. Can it be fixed where everything goes in stock room as it was intended?

4) More ineteraction with significant NPCs int he game.

I cannot stress the fact enough where the main NPCs in the game like Luke and Vader would be more fun if they showed up to a random raid or something. Have them seen doing things in the background other than just stand there in the Themeparks.

Also have ships land and take off frequently from places, like Slave-1 at Jabba's Palace. Milleneum Falcon at Nym's Stronghold. X-WINGS AT THE REBEL BASES, and TIES AT IMPERIAL BASES!

Thanks for listening.

To add to more of things I posted:

5) Visible Rank of fellow faction members in front of their names.

This would add to the games roleplay as well as a bit of immersion. Have the ranks visible by fellow faction members if covert, visible by all players if declared. Just liek the NPCs have.

6) Get Uniforms with the Rank Metals visible.

Get uniforms with either Rank Metals visible... or have it so you can see the Rebellion or Imperial Rank Metal in the chest when you are overt.

1) Player Cities

When I first imagnined what player cities would be like, I thought of something similar to NPC cities, exceptwith different types of buildings. Right now, I feel that player cities are just a bunch of buildings chucked onto the ground, hill, ect. It would look much cooler if player cities could have pavement, and maybe more NPC's that you can interact with or receive missions from.

- Make it so player cities can have pavement.

- Generate more NPC's.

2) Faction Rank

I remember reading this in the way way way WAY outdated strat guide when it wasn't so outdated. It said that faction rank would be displayed in front of your name when you went overt. I believe this would add a lot more content to the game, and make it so you might want to advance in rank to get rid of that measly private in front of your name. I have a feeling though this would be something for the GCW revamp.

- Make faction rank dislayable when a character goes overt.

3) Rebel Armor

I know in the combat balance armor is undergoing major changed, but the rebel armor is just... well... ugly is the nicest way to put it I guess. A much nicer looking armor would be appreciated there. As it stands now, even rebel trooper NPC's don't wear the true armor, they wear a mixture of armor in colors that the marine armor doesn't show.

- Make rebel armor look better and more like an alliance trooper. Perhaps make it that each character is assigned a different color to add variety?

That's all for now, if I think of anything else I'll post it

Everyone needs to chill with all their ideas, with about a week left till patch 9 is scheduled to go live all the focus needs to stay on it untill it is live. Their are MAJOR issues with this patch that need to be adressed and fixed. As it stands now with the focus entirely on it it will be a miracle if this gets resolved in time.

So please everyone not involved in patch 9 put your thoughts on hold for a bit. Even if you arent a jedi this patch will influence EVERYONE in the game in one manor or another.

This patch can make or break this game and needs to be done right. ATM it is going to break it unless many issues are resolved.

i was sifting through some old loot and thought it would be cool if there was some way to make old obsolete junk valuable. my idea is to have some reward in exchange for this junk. y'know, items like vid screens and other things that used to drop, but now don't exist anymore ingame unless someone has saved one or two in their house or whatever. i think it would be cool to have some special rewards like clothing or new decorations that are only available in exchange for extinct junk. maybe particular peices give better rewards, like the items you used to get from the bestine cantina quests or other even more rarely completed npc quests. how about something like bring in your broken electrobinocs to a certain junk dealer and he upgrades the item and makes it work, or converts it into something more valuable anyway. i like junk items, but would appreciate more in this area.

Please make some zones, where youare not allowed towalk with your weapon in hands.
Perhaps if your appropriate faction standing is not high enough. If you doanyway, you are
attacked/arrested/something happens.
Then you can make brawler proffesions a little weaker, but more suitable for such places.

Redesign doc buff, spice and food systems. Their effects should be comparable, so it would be
personal choice which you use. Definitely make theese effects _much_ wekaer. Spice boost
looks most resonable, if not overpowered (to short though). You should be able to fight without it,
and still have some hope of winning PvP and harder mobs. Its effects should not be stackable.

Make modification to armor system. People not using it should have trouble to beat armored
person, but should be able to escape more easily. Maybe just make armor slow character down.

Make missions in bunkers, buildings and in cities. Some of it could be random generated.
Make missions which give player some choice. Make it melee/ranged prof can fight their way,
slicer can use some terminal to pump off air, open closed shortcut door, droid engineer can
repair some battle droid and use it for his aid. We should ba able to change our mind, and
for example help target npc hide instead of killing him/her. And make mission giver tell you
what resistance you should expect, so people not go half galaxy only to see7 reds like me
yesterday ;-).
