We have a lot of characters already in the game. From the most central to some of the more obscure and even one noncanon(HK-47). There are quite a few more great characters in the pipeline. Those dataminers are some great guys giving us insight into the future. But even with those we are still missing some characters that are perfect for this game. Theres even some noncanon characters that would work(Charal,Durge,Dash Rendar,Mara,Revan) but lets keep it canon. HK47 is enough fan fiction. Here's ten from me:
Yadel- because one of Yoda's species is not enough
Gunji- a jedi youngling...wookie 0.0
FN-2199 - brought us the coolest moment in TFA. Traitor!!!!!
JarJar - yeah i said it. Who wouldnt wanna end him over and over?
Darth Bane - the clone wars version. Not the one with the facecrown.
Jango Fett - rematch Mace?
Pre Vizla - a Mandalorian with a lightsaber...that is black?!!! Shouldve been with the release
Darth Plaguies - only 8 sith in canon and Asajj doesnt have the tag.
Mon Mothma - because thats what I called my mom for a few years
Quinlon Vos - He's top ten jedi duelist material
Note: I did not include Rebels characters because I assume they'll do them after Rogue One comes out in a comprehensive pre-New Hope release. Holding my breath lulz.

Others on the list include:
Thrawn - he could be a tactical support for empire, similar to the way codynamic is for clones, plus he could have unique protection aspects against jedi, since Thrawn was known to have yasalimir (sp?), creatures who creatife force nullifying fields around themselves.
Admiral Piett - we already have veers and tarkin, so why not finish out the old trilogy officers?
Bible Fortuna - cause he could always add interesting gameplay to scoundrel squads.
Bossk - game needs some trandoshan.
Mother Talzin - time to round out the night sister squad.
Pit droid - why not make droid squads more interesting with a dedicated droid healer. Instead of basic attacking it heals a squad member. Then you could spec. between different types of healers by adding the mechanic class, which does repairs rather than heals. Makes more sense too. Lumi should heal IG-88, and Jawa engineer shouldn't heal organic units.
Neither are cannon and therefore less likely to happen.
And I know people are quick to mention HK, but he was in the game at launch and Disney hasn't let them do anything like that since.
I doubt that they will again.
but since they only add canon characters, i think Padme should be in the game, it's crazy that she isn't
Ooohwee. Most of them are probably like, "who is Rancor and why doesn't he like doors?"
Seriously, I can't believe how many of them want to add random **** toons from the rebels series b4 Jedi Luke, hell...even a Probe Droid would be better than the toons they are asking for.
Has this guy even read the Bane trilogy? Who would want to see Clone Wars Bane over the original Bane?!!
+1 see above^
Look up Tulak Horde.
It's been said that CG are allowed to use both 'canon' and EU characters. There's absolutely nothing barring them from doing so.

Ki Adi Mundi

Grown up Ahsoka
Maybe a few characters good and bad from Rebels.
Edit: Samurai designs for force users is a core element designed by George Lucas from the get. No, I didn't read the Bane trilogy as by the time that came out I had become disgusted with the liberties many EU authors took when given the honor of writing a story in George Lucas's world. The only thing that was 'right' about Bane's EU look was the fact he was human. And finally if you didnt watch the original trilogy before the prequel trilogy your view of star wars is scewed.
