When you die, you resurrect outside a small med center building in proximity to your bind station. You spawn with all equipment in hand -- no corpse run necessary.
Blaine Christine specifically mentioned PvP acquired armor sets in his presentation.
The group size limit in our demo was four players.
You acquire new skills through class trainers in the main quest hubs.
Class trainers are labeled "Elite."
Side quests did not seem to be class restricted.
You cannot initiate quest dialog if a nearby party member is in combat.
Certain quest givers may be contacted via HoloCom, which works the same as a normal cutscene.
A trade command and Lobby chat channel are available, but upon activating them we received a message that said "This function is not yet implemented."
Chiss and Human characters both had a /dance action available, and the dance was identical for both males and females.
Multiplayer dialog system allows each player to choose their own response, and an automatic dice roll decides the winning choice.
If you are in a group and initiate a quest dialog, the other members in your group have two minutes to reach the conversation point. If they don't make it, you have the option to start the conversation without your groupmates.
For non-instanced quest givers, the NPC doesn't move around much. Instanced quest givers tended to have elaborate cut scenes where they interact with the environment.
Mobs have a leash radius, and some did manage to evade us.
If you right click on an inventory item with a vendor trade window open, the item is sold. Values are in single credits with no fractional amounts.
Auto-run is available and in the usual places of Mouse 3/Numlock.
The taxi system was similar to World of Warcraft's gryphons. You pay a small fee and are transported from Station A to Station B.
The character creation screen was very similar to Dragon Age: Origins
The aggro indicator is blue when there is no aggro, yellow they are aware of you (mouseover status says "ALERTED") but not engaged, and red indicates in combat. The ranges for this varied depending on the type of mob.
For completing quests, you sometimes received items, money, alignment points, and experience points, or any combination therein.
For completing quests in a group, you received "Social Points." We don't know their purpose.
If a quest is instanced you enter a green portal. If you aren't eligible for the quest, the entrance is red.
All classes have a "Revive" ability, a 5s cast time, 10m range, no cooldown ability which can be used on a player or companion. The tooltip did not indicate if the ability is restricted to out of combat use.
You can inspect the gear of other players in your group from any distance, even if they're on a different planet.
You can inspect the gear of all other players in visual proximity. We don't know the maximum range of this.
In our groups the loot rules were "Round Robin" without a dice-rolling mechanic, and the credits looted were split equally among players in the group that were in proximity.
Loot was appropriate for what the mob would carry, such as a droid carrying a gun drops a gun (and often seemingly useless spare parts).
Personal Ships are described as a "base of operations" for the classes, groups, and companions.
Companions are seen in the "hanger," similar to the way that they are in the Mass Effect and KoTOR series.
A Dashade Companion and Human (looks like one of the lightly armored trooper concept art images) are seen in the background during the presentation.
Flytext seen during the gameplay hands on, works like scrolling combat text but more in the way of Borderlands where damage numbers pop out in different directions around the enemy as you damage them as well as yourself.
Preferences allowed for the customization of Flytext in similar ways of Scrolling Combat Text.
Preferences allowed for the adding of action bars, similar to the way they are added in the World of Warcraft default UI.
Bottom right hand corner bar graph is mentioned as "Game Server Delay"
WASD is default in-game
