 I wanna know if you'll be able to get cross faction ships, like a Smuggler in a Sith ship so they can sneak through into enemy space + stuff.

Why an MMO? Why an MMO? This game would have been epic if it was a console game with like an online way to do mission and crew up, but this game is goign to suck and I might just cry.

Cool I guess. I hope that's not the only way to get around though. Portals+Hearthstone+Summons really works well in WOW, and I would hate having to go back to one place after every mission or planet or whatever. Can't wait to play this game and see what it's like.

Why does the bad guy always have to have the ship that looks like it belongs to a guy who also owns his own gimp suit and rack?

It's almost kinda depressing to be walking around in a dimly-lit red and gray atmosphere, the republic ship look much more appealing.  I hope they will eventually add more ship variety than just those two, preferably before launch than after in an update or an expansion.

Wow.  Player ships are an extremely important part of SW, I'm glad they've got 'em.   I am a bit disappointed that they're freighters instead of fighters, but that's just a minor nitpick really.

I dunno that there will ever be an official WoW killer at this point. Either the game will kill itself or people will lose interest. It'd be awesome to see another game make a good number of those 8 million users (if that's even what it still is) run to it, but I'm not to sure it'll ever happen.

Does anyone else think that Bioware should have made Startrek: online? Based on these ship interiors .

Ships are cool and everything, but I'm wondering if there is space combat... would seam wierd to give you ships that don't fly, and it wouldn't be star wars without some kind of space combat.  I love Bioware a lot but I'll probabaly pass on this now.

Great, but why does the jedi get a corvette while the sith only gets a transport. The jedi can blow things up while the evil sith gets to fly a bloody space truck? I want a star destroyer!!! ^^

stuff like this brings me from uninterested into the interested crowd
 
nice touches like these really show they know what they are doing, and know what players would want.
 
(unlike Star trek Online, where you couldnt even be in your own bridge of the ship you owned)

Yeah, hearing that tune made me realize exactly how much Mass Effect 2 I've played in the last 6 months.
 
Are your ship interiors customizable in any way (trophies won from PvP/raiding, background music, basic decor preferences)?  And are other players going to be able to join you on your ship?
 
Even better, can guilds purchase a frigate-class ship with customizable options, and with a docking bay for all guild members' ships?  The RPers would get a ton out of making all their plans in their meeting room, then going to their ships and raiding/PvPing.

Yes! This game just keeps getting better and better. I hope the interaction with your ship is on the same level or beyond that in ME2 (ex, areas to go to, crew, upgrades).

Replace "classic songs from the sound of music" with 80's cartoon themesongs, and outright remove "but my underwear" and you have my ship. 
So yeah, not a fun place to be for anyone/thing else.

Cool, ships.  I just hope that all that space serves a purpose other than being there for the atmosphere.

If only the game looked and played like the CGI trailers they've released. 
 
I would shit myself and play it for the rest of my videogame playing career, or until they reach a sequel. Especially if it's an RPG. Not really into MMOs with monthly subscriptions, especially cause my PC sucks.

Looks like they're fully explorable, unlike Star Trek Online.  Awesome.  This game couldn't be more on my must-buy list.
