SWG.Warcry has LucasArts' Kevin “Q-3P0” O’Hara in the hot seat this evening, answering questions regarding their massively multiplayer online RPG, Star Wars Galaxies. Here's some juice:

The Guardians It's not a hot issue, but rather an annoyance. Often, we'll be running to the shuttle, and upon clicking our ticket, to hand to the droid, the shuttle ups and leaves. Can we get some kind of notification, like for the droid to say 60 seconds, then 30 second last call, or something?
Q-3P0 I know the feeling, like when you run to a bus stop just as the driver closes the door and pulls away. I don’t think we want to add more active spam to the game, but we might be able to give a better indication of when it is about to leave. I’ll add it to the list, although honestly I doubt it will get looked at for a while. In the meantime, I recommend making an alias or macro to use as to run to the shuttle (such as /alias shuttle /target Ticket Collector;/boardShuttle;/say Wait for me...)
