DE: They will not be cross-server as we are coming up on a huge move to servers with massively higher population caps than we have today.


I don't think that means what you think it means.

Simply raising population caps alone will solve almost none of the current low population server issues. Mergers and channeled transfers are going to have to be involved if they are going create good sustainable communities on servers.

That may or may not be correct, but what was said in the interview does not mean they are merging servers.

True enough, but do you think it's unreasonable to infer that this is a first-step toward server mergers?

I don't think it's an unreasonable inference.

Well the quote about the larger server limits was in response to a question about cross server queing, so it's not much of a jump to think they are related.

DE: If you’re high enough legacy and want to drop enough credits to fully max out your XP perks, you absolutely could skip the side quests. There are also perks for Bonus Series quests, though, so if you want to go heroic and hit some planets you skipped before that’s also an option.

:x
PCG: Is the group finder available for Hard Mode Operations, or just Story Mode?

DE: Just Story. Pick-up groups for Hard Mode would be more frustration than anything else.


DE: Adaptive gear is actually easier for art resources since we get three outfits for the price of one. The reason we don’t make all gear adaptive is the same reason we don’t have social gear that looks like a Republic Trooper: Dressing up silly is fine, but dressing deceptively (like letting a Jedi dressed as a Trooper) causes chaos with PvP and other systems where the importance of visual identification is paramount.


But my inquisitor has the sweet Collector's Edition Sith Trooper armor! And what about the Containment Armor from the Rakghoul event? What about my Sentinel who uses vibroblades and wears smuggler gear?

Raar!
