My heart wants ship battles, but my brain tells me it's gonna be costly especially if they raise the level cap at the same time. Guilds would be nice though and it'd be better if there could be some actual interaction between players besides fighting their AI controlled teams. Versus mode would be pretty cool too, say if you could invite an ally to a live battle and they could expand on that by maybe making a ranked ladder like Hearthstone but that's a bit adventurous I think. Would be great if they gave us a bit of preview though!
Guilds and clans 100% it's what this game needs ship battles later on forsure but a team experience with more strategy and competition is forsure what we need!!
A player trade shop would allow us more ability to upgrade what we already have. As resources get harder to come by adding whole new classes of play like ship battles (however awesome they would be) is just another drain on an already stressed economy.
Player trade will kill the game, 'cause it will open the gates for RMT deals.. than whales will become thicker, EA will start losing money etc. Any kinds of group battles (no matter, spaceship or ground) possibly should be a part of clan/guild/legion system
Of course if this function came with some sort of guild wars game mode with a new currency and shipment shop... well, then, that'd just be the pest patch ever.
Exactly how would guilds/clans help the game experience beyond being a glorified chat feature?
Cooperative game play, specifically through GvG competition. SWFC does a really good job of this. There are PvP and PvE game modes that are a lot of fun and require the cooperation of as many people as possible to complete. There are then rewards that are given to each individual within the guild based on the guild's rank/completion level of that mode.
Would love to see several of these. Ship battles for sure!
Guilds: Should include daily and weekly guild challenges (either PvE or achievements like beat 100 elite missions, etc.). Should also include some sort of Guild vs. Guild multiplayer.
Planet Conquests: I know MMOs often have something similar, and would love to see that here. Some way for hundreds/thousands of players to band together against beefed up enemies.
Played Trading Shop: Would give a reason to check the game constantly. You never know when someone will be selling exactly what you need. From EA's perspective, anything to get people thinking about the game more often is good, right?
Ground Vehicles: You know, Star Wars might be the only franchise that could pull this off. Speeders, mounts, AT-STs... would be a good long-term project after Ship Battles.
The possibilities in the SW universe are endless. I hope EA uses their vast income from this game to add more devs and make this game 100-200% deeper in terms of content.
Ship battles could be awesome and bring a new source of income (credits, crystals or shards, please.)
Guilds would also be nice, though I'm curious on how it would work. Maybe a guild-sized kind of GW where you have to defeat the entire enemy guild ?
Or maybe it will be the opportunity to add real PvP.

This can be fixed by adding a new game mode that provides these resources. Why would you be against that ?
