I have an important question no one else seems to ever ask.....

Will there be open world pvp and will you be able to gank other players?

no one ever seems to know the answer hopefully you can ask them cuz it would suck to see a jedi and all you can do is stare at him.

Will we see a world wide release date for Tor(all Tor supported countries) or will north america/canada get Tor first?

Just another point i'd like to make on top of zoids previous question,will time-cards be available outside the USA/Canada like europe/UK for example at launch of Tor?

Will we be able to buy time with time cards if we are paranoid over giving credit card info over the internet?

i'll just add a few more questions to my other list:-

12.Will there be any lightsaber color crystals aside from the "normal" versions of course like that of the "compressed" or "unstable" versions featured in star wars:the force unleashed game(PS3/xbox360 version) be used/seen in Tor?
13.will there be vehicles and creature mounts in gave as a form of travel in Tor?
14.will being fully darkside aligned change your apperance like in previous kotor games making you pale white etc?
15.will Tor game servers be split be country region? i.e. the WoW way europe has a seperate client version to the US/Canada or like SWG with a universal client for all players?
16.will Tor game servers be split by playstyles i.e. rp,pvp,rvr,pve etc or just left unlabled/untagged like SWG?

15 is an important one, because I want to see people like you in game without you having to import the game.

14 is an excellent question...I was hoping that would carry over into the MMO.

I would like it as a toggle, because some people may have spent hours to look one way and then they are forced to choose good if they want to stay the same.

Here's a few of my questions is it's not already too later to ask them....

1.Will there be other playable race's/species other then Human in Tor? If Yes,can you tell us what they are?
2.Can Sith and Jedi classes use double bladed lightsabers i.e. the same kind of saber darth maul/exar kun used?
3. can you swap saber color crystals/pearls inside your saber like you could in kotor?
4.will kotors workbench make a return for crafting things within Tor?
5. will guilds have access to captial ships?
6. will there be atmosperic flight in Tor?
7.will our ships be a form of housing kind of like how it was in previous kotor games with the ebon hawk and will there be instanced apartments (like your apartment on taris in kotor 1) as housing also?
8.is Tor aiming for 16 playable planets at launch (8 Republic/8 sith empire aligned planets)?
9.will swoop/pod racing/duel arena type mini games from kotor make it into Tor?
10.can sith and republic faction players communicate in chat mode together or will it be more like communication is between the horde and alliance in WoW?
11.will players be able to learn other languages from other players of different species on top of their natively known ones?

You got my questions I think, and you know how I am with coming up with questions.
 
Comment by Sedit made on July 23rd, 2009 at 5:49am
Since I have the podium while other sleep, I will put forth another question if you wouldn't mind...

....could you find out about how the housing, if any at all, will be handled? there is a huge post at swtor.com about this at;

http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=143

I'm more in favor of our ships being our homes, but a SWG style housing would not bother me at all.

Heck yeah I have a question!

Could you please ask them how BH jetpack will work? Like, will it work out of combat, can we use it in combat and on the move, example of this is we are being chased, could we jump onto a building rooftop?
