53 votes and not a single vote for harder and deep pve group progress content ... I knew raiding was out of fashion but that is still pretty remarkable ...
I think this is mostly due to other options being more appealing.

I voted "Other" for more steamy cyber-sex with your make-believe companions. Can't get enough of that pixilated romance.
Haha yeah, should have added "Cross species romance" as a poll option, also judging some of the other replies. Or like you say: a "Hardcore Romance" option including the option to shave your wookie, which would of course require a fingerprint-login module to verify your age.

LMAO. Yes, the "Shave Your Wookie" option would definitely take hairballs out of the equation, which is always a good thing.

True but a few years ago it might have been different. I can imagine how the hardcore raiding crew back then would laugh about someone suggesting to have more RP features over more and harder dungeons.
What I would really like, is to have deep class mechanics and the ability to switch between light / dark side. However, given their design decisions for this game, that is basically now impossible. So much for that.
After that, I'd take better space combat for sure. Better PvE would also be a close second.
- If I had to guess, though. First expansion: New shinnier purple items, different colored lightsabers, and a new lvl cap with 'harder' higher lvl flashpoints.
Other: A Player Bounty system and similiar opt in only PVP type content for all the other classes. I think this would go a long way towards making end game more fun and engaging. Smugglers could smuggle, bounty hunters can chase them, jedi and sith could investigate and capture, troopers could be given missions that involve attacking bases, and agents could assasinate. Imagine the possibilities.
If the word "romance" invokes filthy ideas in your mind, it's entirely your fault.
It's more the word "Arcs" for me.
*shivers*. Thesaurus.com suggests "bow", and "bending" as synonyms.
p.s. Didn't add that obvious choice because they already announced it would be added, and I guess in an update pretty soon after launch. Not in a fleshed out content expansion which is the subject of the poll.

Well then playable aliens. I hate being confined to that Star Trekkish human only ideal. >.<

More open space gameplay options and more space content.
Any1 who played Eve longer then a month would have loved the space exploration and the political system it contains.
Sovereingty should have played a massive role in SWTOR if you would ask me.
Empire versus Republic and nothing in between is a missed oppertunity and a big let down tbh.
And the main reason i prolly wont buy it as the game lacks any real depth besides story telling carebear stuff
Its a nice feature but it dominated most of the budget and developer time to get it in the game at the cost of making a real next gen mmo.
The lack of making a real alliance of multiple guilds/legions/corps and block parts of the solar systems.
The combined attacks of said alliance on worlds.
The political system and sovereingty to make tuff decisions and betrayel would be awesome.
Instead we get a dumbed down carebear feeling in SWTOR wich i find disapointing to say the least.
Sure we all have our opinion and iam not saying Eve is better or worse or WoW is better or worse, but for a 300 mil budget 300 Million !!! damn thats alot of cash for a story telling sub par mmo
Engine seems old and dated
Animations are slow and looks horrible
Combat pace seems no fun
Combat itself looks unintresting
No real space to explore if iam right, only as a mini game ? (correct me if iam wrong here pls)
No spaceship building / crafting ? (correct me if iam wrong here pls)
No big Space Battles with Tie Fighters / Destroyers / Battlehips ? (correct me if iam wrong here pls)
Its Starwars for god sake -_- STAR WARS !!!
We get a ground combat mmo with battlegrounds and a little world pvp if iam right.
We get alot of story telling questing pve stuff.
I better stop here before i get some angry wookies at my door blasting my ass down
As you can see iam very disapointing by the way Bioware has developt the Starwars IP and i see it as a miseed opertunity with a massive budget they had not to create a next gen mmo.

They have not spent 300 million on the game EA has sad months ago they have put 80+ million dollars into the game so you are way off and need to stop using a number some guy that got fired by EA made up.
Definatly Open space enviroments and exploration (thats twitched based like x-wing series.)
If they added something like "Infinity - quest for earth" style space gameplay to SW:ToR, i don't think i'll ever play another game period.
I tend to like twitch myself up to a certain point. I also like design and pvp as well. I am surprised at how few pvpers are on this site. Oh well, I guess I have to argue at Arenajunkies for that.
While I wish there was a more than one option, the space shooter on rails is my biggest hope for an overhaul.
SWTOR. Face it, in the Scooby Doo Mystery Solving Van of coolness, this game is Velma. In this current MMO climate it has about as much chance for survival as a group of inquisitive teenagers in a 1980s slasher flick. -Tardcore May, 2011
Lol @ the fact that the three highest choices, totaling up to 65% of the votes, include aspects that are similar to SWG.
I voted one of those as well, yet I never played SWG myself.
I think a lot of people have a feeling for the potential this game has if it spreads its wings and touches more bases with its expansions. And I think most people are kind of sick of the WOW model of slightly raising the level cap (and rendering all the gear you worked so hard for obsolete), adding a race or class, a slab of landmass and new dungeons, and voila, expansion.
The problem with that is that you hollow out the game and don't really innovate it; older dungeons lose appeal, leveling speed needs unnatural boosting to get people up at endgame level (where the new content sits) sooner and people need stuff like cross server dungeon finders because there's such a huge variety of them that a single server's population is spread too thinly.
In that sense I'd love Swtor to expand beyond its formula, no matter how good it will be and offer a wider range of past times stacked next to eachother, rather than more of the same stacked on itself.
I'd like to see a third faction. Something for neutrals, smugglers, mercs, bounty hunters, merchants/traders, etc... As well as the ability to change sides thru pve/questing.

Swoop bike racing against other players and a more complex space part.

Shaven Wookie?
I don't... I don't even... No. Just no.
Voted for more space options. Though the rp-light side/dark side is a close second.

I voted the space content but RP element like housing will be awesome too:
So more space content.
More spaceships to choose.
Houses and guild halls.

Well, a shaved wookie will probably look like that, but bigger of course:

More space options and sandbox elements are what I would choose for sure.

I think more races would be nice...although not intergral to the game.
More planets is a MUST for an expansion.
And i think alot of the smaller stuff too regarding freedom and customization Like; Guild Ships, Player Housing, Races, more Space and crafting...
