Nope. You're misunderstanding the bug they're talking about. He's done it on NiM for a couple of weeks now at least. He'll select a target, that target will not move. Then he appears to select a new target in another direction, he'll do his swipe animation and the original target will take damage instead of the targets in his swipe path.

Yup. This. It's a good way to meter your gear capabilities without losing the opportunity to fully clear on your preferred mode.

Not likely. Entry level PvE gear is considered to be Orange gear with the Mods that you get from doing the PvE Dailies on Illum, Belsavis, and come 1.2, Corellia.

Anecdotal Opening Post is Anecdotal.

Yeah, you're misinterpreting it. What would make no sense would be rebalancing the T1 Raids after the content has been cleared and people are moving on to the T2 Raids. What he meant was that "Nightmare mode will be made (comparitively) harder, but needs a lot of testing and will not launch with 1.2 update." So the point is the drive home that Nightmare in Explosive Conflict will be Harder than Hard mode in comparison to the Nightmare modes increased difficulty in KP and EV. Also, they're likely going to wait to see the metrics of Guilds performance on Hardmode EC and then tune Nightmare afterwards to ensure the intended level of difficulty.

I don't think so but the important aspect is that it's not an Average. The people who have extreme amounts of money are just plain few in number.

80% of the populace has 400k and less. Maybe this will stop the rampant "Money is too easy to get in this game" comment we see on these forums.

Republic! It's Republic! ;p

Using another Class' skills will only be available while your Heroic Skill is active when a Companion is out. By nature this means those skills are not available in any meaningful Operations/Flashpoints, or an any meaningful PvP.

They said they are adjusting the economy to compensate for lack of trash drops in OPS. They'll make that adjustment first and see what the affects are before they change things further.

You need to keep in mind that the majority of the useful information will be during the Q&A portion of the presentation. The outline is a summary but he'll expand on it. He knows the information behind it but he just doesn't have the bullet points specifically committed to memory.

9+ bosses per raid is a bit excessive imo. I dislike having to split a single Raid Instance into multiple nights simply because of the amount of bosses. Having to split due to difficulty in downing bosses is fine though.

yeah. 10k viewers is pretty nice considering this is the middle of a Monday in NA and has to be super late/early for Asia Pacific. Fairly late evening for Europe too I'd imagine.

I think Fabricator is my favorite fight simply due to the puzzle aspects. Switches up the flavor a bit. Moar Plz!

You mean the team responsible for Tuesday Morning maintenence getting pushed back to Weds or Thurs in some cases might be late from lunch!? ;x

36 minutes until it starts again. They took a break for a tour of the studio and lunch.

I'm not all that familiar with Streaming on Livestream, but it should just be an option to change on their end. Though it's EA's Livestream account, so I'm not certain BW has access to that aspect of it.

It was the Mini-Pet that was pictured.

While I tend to agree with you, access to certain functions from your ship will increase personal quality of life but detract from the overall feel of the game. Access to the GTN and Mail, for example, would be hugely convenient. At the same time it would detract from the draw of The Fleet and make the game feel even more empty than it already does (at least on Repub side). So there has to be a give and take there to try to balance that convenience without detracting from the feel of the game overall.

Well we don't know yet if some of those things are included in the Legacy System. The IGN article only covers on aspect of the system. There are other elements that we know about that they didn't discuss at all, like Speeders at a lower level. For all we know, increased Ship Functionality could be an aspect of Legacy Level.

it won't start streaming again for another hour and 10 minutes or so.

To Kyoshie, It's entirely possible to be born to two force users and have no Force powers. Likewise, you can be born to non-force using parents and have the force. Both scenarios are relatively small in chance, but that's how it stands. Kyp Durron had no training and was able to use his Force Powers to navigate through the Spice mines. Leia likewise also could sense Luke's presence even when she had no idea she had The Force. So.. while it's extremely unlikely that one would be able to deflect blaster bolts or levitate objects without training, many Force users can use The Force in various ways without training and some times without even knowing it's The Force they're using.

All story in the EU has to be approved of by Lucasarts. It's not just some guy randomly deciding what to throw in. Now with multiple authors writing simultaneously and not sharing story between each other, you end up with lore conflictions that later have to be retconned, but the basic elements of the stories are not just thrown around without Lucas' approval.

I promise from here on out, if I reply to you I'll add lol's and 's to indicate that I'm not sitting here with a furrowed brow intent on disproving your jokes. ;p

Yup. Professions are pretty much Classes. What they've done instead is not tied the Tank>DPS>Heals Trinity to specific classes. Anyone can heal or tank or dps depending on how you allocate your points.
