First, may the Force preserve us from any more expansions for at least two years, because there's at least that much work to do fixing the game as it exists.
More professions? Please god no, they can't find the coding time to fix the ones that exist now.
New planets? Well, that'd be nice, but most of the real estate that exists today is empty. Add content to existing planets and give people a reason to go to them.

Well 2 years is abit extreme, but I agree no more professions, but not because of the minor issues that we have, but because well 32 is more then plenty for a long time. They can and will fix the bugs. As for new planets yeah I'd like to see one or two in the next expansion, more content will come to fill the empty space as it were, so yeah one planet maybe two.

I know this gonna sound likea semi flame but it kinda isnt, i just wanna say*** to the "check a box" to be bounty hunted. Firstly NO NO NO lol since when do Jedi check off a box to be bounty hunted? Never.
Anyways, i've heard something similar to this and i'll relay it, forgot who said it if i knew i'd give him credit.
The New BH system should be helping out "POLITICIAN" rather then smuggler since they've got alot of cool stuff coming for them. Added to the BH terminals should be player bounties. How you ask? It's simple, As you can imagine people get fed up with other people, they can go to their local politician who can put someone on the terminals for a fee, however much the bounty isthe politician must pay it to get it on the terminal. The player's mission is now available on the terminals and they get a BH tef JUST LIKE JEDI. Simple. And it makes Being a BH/Politician trendy....
Imagine all the at keyboard dancers who hate afkers, That's why i think that the price to put bounties on the terminal should be no lower then 6k.
I like that better then bh's and smugglers just "coming up with a bounty" terminals and tefs make more sense.

I like your idea for the at keyboard dancers hiring bounties on AFK dancers. But, I don't like the 6k maximum thing, now that just doesen't follow (start flaming here) continuity. Bounties usually were placed by crime lords and therefore would run anywhere from 10k to 1,000,000 credits depending on the bounty.
Think about it, if you have to shuttle around chasing your bounty, your better off sitting at home rolling a chance cube because 6k would not cover travel costs alone.

I'd like to see more non-combat activities. Pod-racing, Cards, etc.

>Otherwise, you'd have people placing bounties on other people just for the heck of it.
Where you been?
This already happens. Anyone can place a bounty on anyones head, and nearly anyone can go collect it. You just have work within the existing framework of the game to do it. Usually it involves a TEF on the mark, and an overt, sometimes a duel, and nearly always either a partner or an informant network. If the player target is in the same faction as you, you need to hire someone from the opposing faction to do it.
If the mark never does faction missions, it's nearly impossible.
A bounty was placed on another player in my town, and the bounty was collected LOL. I will save the players involved some embarrassment and not mention any names, but it was pretty entertaining to hear it go down on teamspeak LOL.
The bounty was 50k and it was collected after the death of the mark. Get inventive people =)!!!

While interesting, the system that you proposed practically has to have the mark WANT a bounty on them. lol

how about if u get really low faction points with the more powerful factions in the game, excluding gcw factions, u get a bounty placed on u by the game according to ur skill lvl. like if u hv just novice carbiner, only a novice or close to if bh could take u in for the bounty. this is to discourage the meaningless laughter of too many cocky noobs, and to make sure those who do afk xp camp don't do it too long or they can get a bounty. these bounties can range up to 2-4k PER BOX IN AN ELITE OR HYBRID PROFFESSION ONLY. this means that u can get anywhere from 36k-72k per hunt. also, the mark, or poor swine could get tips from others around him/her that a bh was on theri tail. maybe if they could hide from the bh for a total amount of logged in time they could hv the mission canceled. how does this float ur boat?
also, stuff i would like to see....
1. more plantes and more story to existing planets
2. more weapons and armor, the whole "comp is the best" really bums me out as i know no one that can wear it unbuffed (i'm not psychic, if u can woopy)
3. more mounts/vehicals, possible combat capable and/or multi-passenger
4.more player creation customization options (tattoos, more hair styles, pericings, scars{maybe from wounds???}, and the like)
5. the previously mentioned job for smugglers to be able to do acctual work for acctual players, such as picking up resource shippments previously bought from mining oputposts in space (smugglers could go and get it in space or they could pick it up from a freigther drop point at a starport)
6. a set limit to the number of allowed jedi/sith per server (check out this one dudes ideas for a better jedi revamp somewhere on the forums, willl edit if i find it again, hehe)
7. more ships, possible freighters to make acctual shippments.
8. does anyone know where the battlefeilds are? is that lager place near fort tusken a battlefield ( the one with these huge pillars surrounding a large open space, and all the pillars are connected by a thin blue light, the whole things looks like a large oval or circle. if it's not a battlefield, make some, i been looking for them and i don't think they were ever really made.
9. something to make it so one itema doesn't rule the economy. the only crafters who make it are armorsmiths, weaponsmiths, and shippwrights.
will post more if i can find some in my empty void called a mind.

You should be able to fly starship on planits and land them anywhere you want kind of like a flying landspeeder
Also there should add 2 more planits, HOTH and MON CALIMARI, Also you should have a death star and be able to dock with it in space.
and you should add a snow speeder and a sand crawler as veicles

Yes, your description is a battlefield. No. They don't work. Haven't since like Day 9.
I'm a DE, the money could be better, people are turned off to the fact they can't upgrade droids.
They're fixing the armor thing with the CU.
Yeah, more ships that all classes could use, that way there'd be more variety.
I LOVE the Jedi thing, how about 3 Jedi/2 Sith!!
SWG could be such a good game of SOE played their cards right. If they didn't have Jedi, I'd know alot more people who'd still be playing.
