Oops, was I supposed to say that? Oh well, I just gave you an exclusive. You're welcome.

We all know that BioWare Community Manager Stephen Reid is a pretty busy guy. Recently, however, he was able to sit down with the good folk over at TOR-Talk for an exclusive, nearly 45-minute interview.

There are a number of reveals in this interview including the confirmation that the new warzone will be similar to Huttball in that the same faction can be pitted against each other. Reid also confirmed that character copying to the Public Test Server will come in the near future. There is also talk of guild ships, tweaks to crew skills and the GTN and more.

I’ve included the show notes below if you don’t want to listen to the entire interview, but who doesn’t like to listen to Stephen Reid talk TOR? Happy Friday TORWarriors!

What we learned from the interview…

• Confirmation that Same-Faction vs. Same-Faction gameplay will be in the upcoming Warzone. (Like Huttball)

• The UI Customization in the “Coming to TOR” Video was just a glimpse of what the Dev Team is working on.

• Mods and Macros aren’t off the table and may be implemented in the future and UI customization remains one of BioWare’s highest priorities.

• Confirmation that the “Legacy System” will carry over specific races between the two factions. (NEW Race & Class Combinations)

• Character Copies will be available to the PTS in the future so players can test the game on their own toons.

• Today Bug Fixing is currently BioWare’s main focus on SW:TOR with a number of Devs still developing much upcoming content.

• On the agenda tweaks and changes will be coming to Crew Skills and the “GTN” (Galactic Trade Network).

• Guild Ships remain on the table of discussion with BioWare Developers,however, no guarantee a “guild space/area” will be implemented as a guild ship…guild halls and guild housing have also been discussed.

• The Guild Headquarters that was on the forums in the past will be returning and it will be better. Along with that BioWare is considering other potential elements seen from other MMOs to be implemented on SWTOR.com in the future. Maybe an armory?!
