I believe I only have a few questions, lol. Thanks for answering!
1. In the pilot that recently aired we got a first hand look at some of the many different species that inhabit that world, are there any plans being made for any of these races to be implemented as playable characters? If so, will these races feature any unique power/abilities to set them apart from one another or will it continue with the current trend of only having different physical appearances?
If we do get other races added to the game later on, will you allow players that didnt have those races available to them at launch to have a one time respec token of some sort that would allow them to switch their race without having to start a completely new character?
2. I have worked really hard to complete pursuits in order to obtain some really amazing looking armor. However, amazing looking armor is pretty much all it is... With the current system it seems that none of our outfits have any kind of stats and we strictly rely on shields to protect us from enemy encounters. Is there going to be any shift in the role that our outfits play in the future? Or are outfits strictly meant to be aesthetically pleasing to us?
3. In the pilot of the tv series we saw that the largest threat to the people of Defiance are a race of automatons called the Volge. I am not quite sure how many years the pilot episode and the game are apart, but are we going to be seeing the Volge or any other creature such as the mysterious forrest beast in the game since they are supposed to influence one another?
4. Currently there seems to be a few kinks that need to be worked out in the co-op missions. Putting those group issues aside, are you planning on implementing any kind of future system to allow players to choose if they are looking for a session in progress or one that will start from the beginning? I have only played three of the co-op maps so far, and two out of those three I joined at the very end to only fight the boss. As much as I understand that people drop out of groups and you guys wanting to replace those lost group members, I would still like the option of not getting thrown into a session that is almost done so I can enjoy the entire story on my first run through.
5. I am sure you have been asked this question on numerous occasions, but are we going to be seeing any kind of storage system? I personally am a hoarder and absolutely love to have all sorts of different weapons and items. Unfortunately the current gameplay mechanics forces me to choose between weapons and items as my inventory is constantly filling up :/.
I think those are pretty much the major questions that I had, if I can think of anymore I will be sure to drop them in this thread before the end of the day. Thank you in advance for your time and answers!

1. Current trend, only appearance. That is by choice and part of the character progression. We're re-evaluating it regularly but I don't expect that to change.
2. There could be changes coming, yes.
3. Sikrit!
4. Yes, we'll be addressing this. Pretty annoying :P
5. You might but not as a generic storage system.
