in terms of the poll, i voted for a new ship. however, i think it'd be awesome for an Ebon Hawk style. i liked it, but getting the ship in the third game might be confusing to figure out. in truth, i don't even understand how it was lost from the first to the second games yet
as Wyran said on page 1, having 2 floors to the ship would be pretty cool, however i find it a bit of work running around to talk to the characters as it is. maybe move the cargo hold down to the second floor, and the old cargo hold is for the "game room" where one might play Pazaak or play a swoop simulation game to improve on swoop skills (speaking of which, i hope it's K1 style racing. K2 blew chunks. i also hope this time you actually can upgrade your damn swoop bike. the first time i played K1, there was mention of upgrading swoop bikes, and i was wondering "how the hell do i upgrade it?!". i'm not joking. i'm still wondering if you can upgrade and just don't know how or if it's just useless talk in game).
going back to the cargo hold, i think there should be a real reason for all those containers. therefore, there should be a limit to how much you can carry around. i mean seriously, how can one put so many guns, swords, lightsabers, energy shields, grenades, stims, armour outfits, robes, cards, and other junk on themselves and look as unloaded as they did in K1 and K2?
k, back to the ship. if there's going to be more ship-blasting like in K1, there should be 1 or 2 more turrets with other members of your party occupying them to shoot at turrets. possibly switch to a droid like T3-M4 and you just move around the ship repairing where the ship gets shot. he'll be magnetized to the ship, so it's realistic if he gets shot and KO'd and doesn't fly away in space, but shows up later on the ship.
k, those are my thoughts for now.
