That's probably true. Perhaps it indicates something special might be achieved here other then just capturing one of the laser turrets, or it shows a current target that is being fought over.

As in "turret three is being disputed" and it shows the battle icon so people can follow it to help

Image 16 seems to be a "No Power" Icon. The little lightning bolts seem to imply that. Perhaps you can knock out the generator for the cannons, so the objectives don't just become a zergpile around the consoles.

The red icon seems to appear quite frequently, and not necessarily over objectives or players, so I'm stumped.

What about the five figures along the wall in the dropship where the speeders are parked. What are those? Any guesses?

I stated earlier, that I believe that they are possibly some sort of reinforcements.

Say if you complete objective A, you get a squad of reinforcements to come down and help with the fight until they are KIA.

don't look like actual characters--maybe just consoles?

Just for clarity regarding the crafting screenshot:

The screenshot is showing two companions working in tandem performing crafting actions. This is a screenshot that we were shown at the EA Winter Showcase, and was explicitly described as being two companions. It was also explained that you would be able to give commands to companions remotely, and that you can queue crafting actions, which continue when you are offline.

If you have a companion with you out and about in the world, you will be able to direct your companion to gather from appropriate resources you may encounter.

As many questions that were answered by the information gathered from the EA Winter Showcase, and from today's Friday update, there are inevitably a whole lot more questions which we ill only find the answers to as and when new information becomes available.

Thanks for the clarification.

The Wookiee is Bowdaar. The armor matches (see screenshot on the Smuggler Holonet page) and it is standing next to the Twi'lek Smuggler.

Sado Orange boxes and text... it's gonna be a GOOD day!

For picture 8 I count 5 players and 4 companions. From leaked video of companions I've seen they are really far behind you when they are following you and it doesn't look like they fixed it yet.

Guys my guess for the Red icon (the two arrow/swords/stakes) is that they are BUFFS, in WoW we have this early level battleground in barrens (i guess its warsong?? not playing wow for a while) where you pick buffs for atk damage or other stuff.

In this case, its a Damage Buff

Also @ 1:11 i don't think the trooper is RECHARGING, i think he is about to throw a grenade of something. take a look.

I posted the same thought, then read down and saw yours. Makes sense to me, anyway.
