How many characters do you get on a server?
Can low level characters adventure with high level characters? I just want to play with my friends and I'm going to be very unhappy if a 2 week vacation means I can't play with my friends any more because they are now too many levels removed. Or, if a friend joins after I'm somewhat advanced I want to be able to play with him or her.
I read they have housing. What about the capabliity to have a player run town?
From what I have read, many seem to think this will be a game about PvP, with PvE thrown in as an afterthought. I don't enjoy PvP that much....I'm much more community oriented. What is your take on PvP as opposed to PvE in the game? Is PvE the red headed step-child the way some think it will be?
How are the communication tools? Though it was a little rocky at first I think SWG has exceptional communication tools built into the game. How is communication on WoW?
I'm sure I'll have many more questions but those are the first ones that spring to mind.

I would like to get into the beta so I will answer what I can with the public knowledge that there is about this game.
How many characters are allowed per account? The current limit is a total of 8 characters across all realms. This number is subject to change. So 8 on one server seems possible.
Can low level characters adventure with high level characters? Yup and there is a feture that is automatic exp bonus for those that are away so that you will level faster for a short time after you come back.
No Housing. They say it will be after release.
The game is quest based. One quest builds on the next and they get tougher and you will need friends to get them done. That’s all PvE. PvP is on top of all that. There will be PvP servers that will be just a huge free for all I think. Not sure. DoJ will not be on a PvP server, but people will be able to do PvP if they want on the server we choose.
SWG does have exceptional communication tools built into the game. WoW has very good tools as well, some same, some different. They have mail where you can send items, money, messages or all of them to others that are not in game.
I think I may want to be a Enchanter. and the only way to get components is to disenchant items and they specifically say "Ask your friends or guildmates to send you old magic items they don't want so that you can disenchant them." So to even get this skill you are going to have to have others players help. Ill be asking you all for help in that.
