Day 3 of PAX brought us 1 Q&A session.. and of course… the BioWare TOR Panel!\u00c2\u00a0 Info from the Panel is after the ‘more’<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Seemed to be a short Q&A, but here’s what I found:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Q: Will Force users overpower non-Force users?<\/p>\n
A:\u00c2\u00a0 Everyone has a role to play, and we balance those roles<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Q:\u00c2\u00a0 What happens when you make a horrible choice as a Jedi?<\/p>\n
A:\u00c2\u00a0 Impact on your Light Side\/Dark Side, if you kill someone, they can’t help you later.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Q:\u00c2\u00a0 Can Moddable armor compete with Operations gear:<\/p>\n
A:\u00c2\u00a0 Only if you get the mats from Operations<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n

A:\u00c2\u00a0 Normal and Hard for now, working on others.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Q:\u00c2\u00a0 Appearance customization<\/p>\n
A:\u00c2\u00a0 No appearance tab, Armor matches to chest piece.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Q:\u00c2\u00a0 Do you always need Tanks\/Healers in Flashpoints\/Operations<\/p>\n
A:\u00c2\u00a0 More forgiving at lower settings.\u00c2\u00a0 Need to specialize for harder content<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Q:\u00c2\u00a0 Can we group with friends of a different level?<\/p>\n
A:\u00c2\u00a0 Warzones bolster you, but no Mentor system at launch<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Q:\u00c2\u00a0 Bonus for being neutral?<\/p>\n
A:\u00c2\u00a0 Cosmetic options for all three alignments.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Q:\u00c2\u00a0 Do choices in Flashpoints affect your story if you lose the roll? (referring to winning\/losing the conversation role to see who’s answer gets used)<\/p>\n
A:\u00c2\u00a0 Self contained, won’t affect your story.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Q:\u00c2\u00a0 Will everyone look different at endgame?<\/p>\n
A:\u00c2\u00a0 Identity is important, moddable items exist.. you can look like Obi-Wan or Boba Fett if you want.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Q: Player driven economy?<\/p>\n
A:\u00c2\u00a0 Mix of Player and NPC Controlled.\u00c2\u00a0 Player part is crafting, and auction house.<\/p>\n
