As we mentioned earlier this week, BioWare's Senior Community Manager working on Star Wars: The Old Republic has done a special Q&A session with the Reddit community via his very own AMA.
For those unfamiliar with Reddit, AMA stands for Ask Me Anything. Reddit users are encouraged to ask Reid anything that is on their mind about Star Wars: The Old Republic's past, present and future.
Reddit user Chossi_lah has compiled a massive list of all of Stephen Reid's questions and answer so far, which you can check out at the URL below. An excerpt of the AMA reads:
Q: Ability Delay. Have you guys discussed this internally, and if so, is there an ETA for a fix on this issue?
Hey! It has been discussed internally, and we'll talk about it publicly soon. It's not a simple issue so we don't want to issue a quick, off-the-cuff response.
Q: Can you tell us what your plans are for guild banks and guild capital ships?
Guild banks and guild 'housing' (of some type; ships are most popular as people know) are both on the list for future development. As always it's a question of priorities and so on, but they're definitely discussed. I will say that guild banks are higher priority.
Q: What is your favorite MMO (besides this one)?
Used to be City of Heroes - first MMO I worked on.
Q: Any idea if the space sections will expand to include PvP or grouping?
I have an idea. Can't share it though. ;)
Q: What aspect of your job is most entertaining/disheartening?
Entertaining: Interacting with fans in person. Disheartening: Random anger over things I have no control over. I always want to help more than I can.
Q: Can I have a job?
Check bioware.com/careers :)
Q: I'd love to know tons more about the legacy system.
We absolutely know people want to know more about the Legacy System and when the time is right, you'll know. :)
Q: How much of a priority is the Mod API to bioware?
The UI team is going to work on improving the existing UI first before we look at modding it. Modding may happen, but we have no ETA on 'when' that we can share right now.
Q: Any thoughts of letting us play "sabaac" or "pazaak" against others or a house for credits?
Those games are fondly remembered by many team members from KotOR. :)
Q: Lots of PVP questions for you Stephen:
Gabe and his team are working hard on PvP and have plenty of tweaks and changes in the works. We're going to try and share some of their thoughts and objectives soon if we can. Also while I know it's a pat answer - please do post feedback like this in our Forums. We read them and the development team reads them. :)
Q: Can we please get a more functional AH/Galactic Trade Market?
Improvements will come to the GTN in time, definitely.
