Twitch drops

Twitch drops
This idea/suggestion is Open. You can respond to ask questions or discuss the idea and either vote it up or down if you believe it should or should not be implemented, respectively. Popular suggestions and ideas will be considered by the development team to become reality in-game.
Proposal
Prepare a selection of twitch drops for the 1.0 release
Justification
Now that SWG Restoration III is its own category on Twitch we might be able to do twitch drops where it was not possible before. There may be legal issues so maybe its a non-starter.
Motivation
Twitch drops bring viewers, viewers bring players.
Bring Twitch Drops to promote the 1.0 release.
 
Hard no bribing people to stream with better drops will only encourage people to stream just to get said loot and will create a gap between the haves and have nots. Also I just did a quick Google and you are a twitch streamer, advocating for advantages for yourself in a forum like this is pretty low.

So, this is not how twitch drops work. Viewers get the drops, for watching Streamers. But thanks for your vote of confidence and your google skillz.
 
I love this idea! Maybe we could do exclusive paintings for each streamer to offer? Something cosmetic seems easy and desirable.

I'm an artists and I would love to make something Star Warsy yet appropriate to my channel and Resto 3. Branded yet classy.

Unfortunately Twitch drops are somewhat complicated, usually rewarding through a redeemable code in game - something which we haven't built in. It's a great idea, especially around a 1.0 launch to get viewers into the game though - ideally please leave suggestions on what would make a great redeemable Twitch drop :)

Is there any way to use the /claim functionality? Could there be a shared code for streamers and after say 15-20 mins Twitch gifts a code to the viewer that they /claim in game? Like /claim012345 and then you get an item.

You mention a "1.0" launch, so now Im curious what the current version is.
