Developer Questions 2-Nov-05

GENERAL AND MISCELLANEOUS QUESTIONS
  1. Will I be able to change my species?
     No

  2. What will happen to all the resources?
    Resources will be unaffected by the new game enhancements.

  3. Is the character sheet changing?
    Yes, the character sheet is being adapted to the new profession roadmap.
  4. I am a Creature Handler - what will happen to my pets?
    Any pets level 10 and above will remain in your datapad.  Only pets level 10 and under can still be called.
  5. Is lightsaber crafting changing?
    Yes, The crystal components of lightsaber crafting have been removed.
  6. Have the stats on crystals/pearls changed
    Yes, they have been adapted to function with the new combat system.
  7. Is crystal/pearl tuning changing?
    No, however the stats on the crystals have changed.

COMBAT & ABILITIES

  1. Are all the combat abilities going away?
    All combat abilities are brand new to fit the new fast-action system. Entertainer, Trader, Pilot, and Politician abilities will remain unchanged.
  2. How are weapons changing in the new system (stats, relevant usage, etc.)?
    Weapons now have two stats – damage and range. Some select weapons have an elemental damage value added.
  3. Does the combat system still hit specific locations on a target.
    No
  4. What are the new stats for characters and how do they generally work?
    • Strength: Melee attack stat – increases damage
    • Precision: Ranged attack stat – increases damage
    • Agility: General defense in combat – reduces damage
    • Stamina: Increases action 
    • Constitution: Increases health
    • Luck: Will be explained more in-depth at a later time.

JEDI/FORCE SENSITIVE-RELATED QUESTIONS

  1. Will Jedi receive an extra character slot?
    Yes
  2. Will Jedi stil lose XP if slain by a bounty hunter?
    No
  3. For those who have gone through and gotten partway through the Force Sensitive Village (FSV), how will their re-spec points be allocated?
    The FS village has been removed and Jedi have been included as an iconic profession, so progress in the FS village will not have an impact on the re-spec.
  4. As Jedi seem to have more points vested than other players, will those players who were high level Jedi get more re-spec points?
    Re-spec is based on combat level (or Skill Point usage in the case of Entertainers and Traders), but we do have some other great incentives for veteran Jedi in recognition of their efforts.

      Question - Will my new shiny unused ADK, which I got as a vet reward last week after SIX HUNDRED PLUS days of being your customer, be re-spec'd into something useful or am I just a fool who picked the wrong reward?

      What will happen to ADK'd weapons?  Will they be given special bonuses?

      I'm sure you guys aren't blind - I run a business too.  People are livid and to announce this AFTER Trials comes out is shady at best and outright bait & switch/fraud at worse.

      You got a lot of 'splaining to do.
