Here is a link to an editorial on my fan-site/podcast. I hope you enjoy! Feel free to leave comments here or on the site. Thanks "BioWare Should Consider Fans When Building Free-to-Play" by Brian Armstrong

You must not have read my posts. I'm *NOT* suggesting Episode 7 take place during TOR. I'm *suggesting* it might be fun for SWTOR gamers to see some kind of small influence from the old republic era IN episode 7, since they've already said its going to depart from the assumed storyline (from the novels/comics). I'm also asking what plot devices or influences you'd like to see, if it were to happen.

I agree that any heavy story influences would be a stretch. However, I think small things in the story and/or on the screen that us SWTOR players would immediately recognize would be great! For example, in Episode III, when Palpatine was telling Anakin that he was the Sith Lord, the room they were in was adorned with ancient Sith relics! Those relics looked EXACTLY like the ones you see in the original KOTOR. When I saw that, I got really excited, because it really fostered that idea of "This is the same Star Wars universe, no matter what the medium"

Well, you're touching on one of the main subjects that has the SWTOR community really debating. You're not alone! I think the devs recognized that "alting" is a very common form of gameplay that most MMO gamers like to do. To that end, I think they saw the Legacy System as a way to foster that sort of gameplay in a new and fresh way. Also, I think that they believed it would make up for the lack of gameplay variety at end game. However, most of us (me included), see this as a missed opportunity. BioWare relaized it a bit too late and has been trying to develop more end game content while developing quality of life systems we all expected to be in at launch (ie: LFG system)

The OP brings up a great point though! I think one thing that really gets me in this game, is all the running and "manual traveling" you need to do to get from where you are, to where you want to be. Example: Imagine you're on Voss and your guild invites you to an in-progress raid. Wouldn't it be great if they could get you into the raid w/o you having to blow your travel cooldowns?

WOW! This is really awesome! Great job! After seeing the before/after pictures and reading the article, you can really see a huge difference in how the light is effected by what it passes through. Just gives me more reason to believe that the longer this game is out, the better it gets. Thank you for the hard work!

Just thought it'd be fun to speculate. So, it was announced that Episode VII will NOT be any story we've known from the novels/comics. That means...Luke Skywalker's NJO is OUT! Since SWTOR is *THE* Star Wars game right now, do you think it'd be fun if BioWare and Disney/Lucas Arts found a way to link an expansion to Episode VII? Here are some quick ideas: Small events in SWTOR finally become HUGE problems in Ep7 New areas created for SWTOR seen as ancient ruins in Ep7 A SWTOR antagonist *somehow* influences the story in Ep7 (maybe becomes THE bad guy) Character's in SWTOR (Satele Shan) have datacrons that become reference points for knowlege in Ep7 and help the hero(s) resolve their conflict
