Thread: About Friday Features
I'd like to see a "day in the office" feature. Gives us guys/gals an idea of some things that go on in the game development side of the industry.
Something like...get someone to follow Q around for one day and just take general snapshots of things going on like the morning meeting, checking the server room, Thunderheart bouncing off the walls from too much caffiene, etc...
KStarfire
Maybe it would be interesting if you could give us a statistic of how many players have chosen which profession on each server.
Well I am curious about that ![]()
I think one thing that's been missing from SWG is story content. OK, so If I take out a Swoop, I loose FPs with them and gain with Desert Demons.... but who are these people?? (ok, i'm not a SW idiot... I know who those are
... but there are MANY factions in SWG that I don't know )
Would role-players perfer to attack or not attack Rorgungans? Liberation League? Certain rebel factions? I personally decided to NOT attack certain groups because of role-playing, but the only insight we have into their stories is the occasional blurp on the "loading" screen.
I'd like to see a list of these MANY groups, and what each is... where they came from... what's their purpose... how did they get where they are now.... how did the Emperor taking power affect them... should I fight for or against that faction or leave that battle between the opposing groups.. etc. Remember too that not everyone wants to dig in the Expanded Universe to find references to this info.
OK, we've had a wedding... We've seen pretty gardens
Now
PLEASE give us some meaty stuff.
Behind the veil stuff... another round of planatery maps (You saw what we did with the last ones... give us another shot of all of em)
a flood of stats for us to ponder (Min/max class use, # creature spawns per unit land per hour, whatever ya got...)
lots of pretty numbers for us to plug into excel spreadsheets... we'll wring em out for all they're worth...
Server by civil war stats, count of people per faction
Description and stories for the different NPC factions (Kunga, Drall, etc) (Any plans to let us join them? I want a pet Kunga
Planet population by server, list of masters by server and profession.
Interactive exploration questions like find the Azaki plains (maybe better fora NPC quest)
Discussion of the music in SWG
Features on each profession and the benefets of a few little known professions (and maybe a list of masters ![]()
