    Awesome Jesse. Will there be a new toon available for purchase via guild currency or will it be similar to a guild shop?

    @JumbuckJedi no, you will not be able to bank shards for other members to buy.

    Love your work @EA_Jesse!

    Will we see chromium exclusives moved to the guild shipments?

    @EA_Jesse how long do we have to do daily activities? This is a concern if we have players across US and Asia

    Now THAT'S a preview! Excellent stuff!

    Couldn't have said it better myself. Crap, agreeing with Qeltar.

    And I agree with Barrok who agrees with Qeltar. :#

    @EA_Jesse - Thanks for the answer. This is unfortunate and I hope will be addressed in the future, as it sounds like everyone is going to be forced into large guilds.
    Quit 7/14/16. Best of luck to all of you.

    I think it's great that they gave us this preview. I'm pretty excited for the new raid content.

    Cheers to Jesse for communication.

    Guess I need to find a guild... Anyone from Adelaide/Australia in or know of guilds?

    Last round of questions answered for now since I need to eat dinner and watch The Force Awakens again :)

    @mel - no, Guilds will be required to obtain the same rewards. There will be a "find a Guild" feature so you can easily find one that works for you.

    @cosmicturtle333 - the leader is the one that has to pay the cost of creating a Guild. My understanding is that this will not be a huge amount. I can't give the exact cost yet just in case it does change before launch.

    @Telaan - there will be new units in the Guild Shipments that you can purchase Shards for, it works similar to other shipments in the game.

    @HelloHey - most likely this will be 24 hours with the reset time being based off the Guild Leaders location.

    This seams totally logical to me that players in smaller guilds get less stuff. Why would a 5 player guild get the same as a 50 player guild? Maybe I'm missing something?

    Look at what Jesse posted. He said it will be much more difficult for a 5 person guild to complete their missions. A 5 person has to do the same work as 50 people. Seems logical they'd still get a full reward. -if they manage to compete everything.

    Many games use scaling to accommodate people who want to be in smaller guilds. For example, they make the rewards be on a per-person basis rather than a lump sum split among the members. They scale the difficulty of daily activities so the smaller guilds can complete them.
    If they aren't going to do that here, then that's okay, at least we know.
    Quit 7/14/16. Best of luck to all of you.

    About lowmanning guild stuffs..

    Other games I've played had scaling in the form of difficulty. You can do like a guild galactic war set on easy if you have lower level members and as guild ranks up or gets more members ya set it to hard for more coins.

    It's kinda fun sometimes to be a high-power player helping lower guild members. Or join a high-power guild for the carry.. Trying to be number1 in the number guild is an option as well if that's how ya roll!

    I'm getting hyped. New stuffs to do woo.

    @EA_Jesse a question to plz address in near future: are rewards distributed by leader or autodistributed?
    May the force be with you. It shall free you.

    Well shoot. I was getting ready to quit this game to be free of the time sink. It was getting boring and obligating to hit #1 every day. New content has made me reconsider. Hopefully there will be ships included!

    If this is the case I would suggest there needs to be some mechanism for transfer of resources (crystals, credits etc) within the guild so the cost can be shared.

    "Guild Shipments" I like the sound of that~

    Seriously though. This is the kind of communication the players have been dying for. Everyone wouldn't be so PO all the time if we had concrete details instead of disappointing surprises and vague update notes. Thank you for this! And please keep it coming!

    Good to know we now need to join other people. It was fun to play for awhile. I'm sure people will be happy that some of us are done as if I wanted to be forced to rely and form with others we would just play the 100's of better mmo's built for such stuff.

    @EA_Jesse
    I hate guilds and "raiding" (massively multiplayer cooperative stuff). I hope there will be a way to have a viable guild of only myself so I don't have to play this game relying on others to achieve top level items and characters.
    Guild requirement to progress is the surefire way to ruin any game for me.
