In this weeks episode of the TOROcast we discuss the community Q&A held on the official forums discussing the future of Star Wars: The Old Republic. We also started a thread on the official forums to try to convince BioWare to separate the color crystals from the power crystals. I mean no that anyone wanted to use the yellow and black crystal from the collectors edition but lets face it, the green and black core crystal from the Razer gear looks damn awesome. To help us move this thread along go here and post whether or not you would like to see it in game.
This week JJ, Tom and Kyle lead off the show while Samm is on a phone call to get things rolling. The majority of the show we do a lot of speculation of what we'd like to see from a Guild leveling system or the legacy system. A new contest has been announced at the end of the show so be sure to listen in and get the down low on the contest.
So, quite recently I received an email from Bioware asking my opinion of the game and how they’re doing so far…and so I got bored one night, and provided them as much detail as I could to tell them just those things. Of course, being me, I had to add a little extra in there as well.
Welcome back to a new round of Casual Thursday. Last week I wrote about my perspective on the Sith society and their philosophy, this week I’ll point my arrows at their counterpart, the Jedi.
Game Patch 1.1.1 we see a lot of bug fixing especially in Flashpoints and Operations. I believe I even see a fix for one of JJ's complaints from Episode 137 in there as well with Karagaa's palace. I have to say that seeing big patches like this as often as we are proves that BioWare is doing their best to get the game to everyone's standards already expected.
This weeks episode of the TOROcast we give Jeffery a call to see how he's doing. And our main topics of discussion for the week are looting in operations, and discussing why people are leaving the game.
The captain and Arako'ant have been saved for the moment by a unexpected guest. The bounty hunter was more inclined to help them, then either of the two would have expected, or want. For the help, the bounty hunter demanded to accompany them. Why? What is the Mandelorian's angle? And how to find the archaeologist? Find out in a new episode of Friend or Foe.
Today’s patch fixes some of the combat issues found in Star Wars: The Old Republic. The delay when activating the player abilities during low framerate situations has been significantly improved. I noticed this myself last night while PvP’ing where I hit some rough spots due to an insane number of bolts of lighting flying across my screen. To view today’s full list of patch notes read on below.
With the new format being widely accepted by our listeners we continued on just openly discussing SWTOR. This week our focus is on Game Update 1.1 and Patch 1.1.0a. We talk about some of the problems with Ilum that arose and how much fun Samm had playing in Ilum as a republic player.
The future certainly is looking bright for The Old Republic. Patch 1.1 Rise of the Rakghouls has just hit and Bioware reveals a new video detailing what we can expect in the coming months. Video is below.
