    12x Experience Boost-A slap in the face to people who had to level at launch.

    in General Discussion

    Posted · Edited by Apophis_

    Sure, people can level fast now, but if they are new, they will miss a lot of content: FPs, planetary quests, slow progress and building of a character.

     

    I think this boost is a great gift for veterans who already have few 55's, have seen all, or most, of the content, and are too tired to level up more characters. I already finished all storylines, but I always wanted to have all Advanced Classes on 55, but was too lazy to level them up. Also the opportunity to repeat my favorite Class Stories without any leveling issues is just amazing.

     

    I love it.

    Star Wars Rebels - The new movies - and SWTOR

    I have mixed-positive feelings.

     

    Before I saw Sparks of Rebellion, I was really dissapointed with the cancelation of The Clone Wars and reboot of EU, and I really didn't like the animation I have seen in trailers and teasers for Rebels. So as you can see, I wasn't that excited to see the show.

     

    Still, it's Star Wars, and it's the future of my favorite franchise, so I gave it a shot. After reading A New Dawn I have seen it twice: in cinema (there were screenings in Poland a week ago) and few days ago online in HD, and I was really impressed with the animation. Sure, it's not that developed as in last seasons of The Clone Wars, but it is A LOT better than what we have seen in 2008 The Clone Wars movie and later first half of the tv-series. Facial animation is awesome, I'm especially excited when I see Hera, and how she reacts to what is happening around her, it's really good.

     

    Story-wise, it's not that good. Everything happens too fast, and the Empire seems really weak and vulnerable: Stormtroopers are stupid, Star Destroyers and Prison-Planets are easy to attack, heroes seems immortal. But still, it's Star Wars, music is great, characters have potential to be interesting, and I had shivers all over my body when Kanan ignited his lightsaber.

     

    So yeah, Rebels is cool, and I would like to see connections between tv-series and SWTOR, since they talk about that a lot in terms of Story Group and franchise synergy. I know Rebels is Canon, and The Old Republic is not, but it doesn't mean there can't be easter eggs and connections (like it happened in TCW).

     

    And I'm sure Rebels and new movies could bring new fans to the game, but Lucasfilm and their representatives have to mention SWTOR more often when talking about Star Wars (which never really happens now).

    3.0 information today?? PLEASE!!!!!!!!

    Stay back, I’m holding a thermal detonator! To answer your question about the expansion announcement:

     

    Soon™! We are holding the announcement back a bit to add something really nice for subscribers, and we’ll be revealing all shortly - a couple of weeks at the latest. The delay of announcement has no effect on the expansion schedule, and we are still sticking to our commitment of launching it this year.

     

    Something nice? Like a mount?

     

    Not fun, I'm canceling my Sub :)

    Erics stream answer about ranked and why its bad

    in PvP

    Posted

    Please BW, you gotta reconsider this. I mean, you don't see pvpers going into nightmare mode raids and clearing it with pvp gear right? No that is 100% gated by gear. The same needs to apply in ranked.....

     

    This!

     

    Going by the logic of Eric, PvP-ers should be able to run Nightmare mode operations without any problems. I can't do that, because guess what, I don't have a gear!

     

    Ranked should be exclusive for people which put some efford in playing PvP. People in PvE gear are ruining the experience, which leads to less numbers of people actually playing ranked.

     

    I was really in shock during the stream when Eric said what is the reasoning of BioWare.
