Glad you couldn't bring yourself to actually click the link... Star Wars: The Old Republic could be preparing to announce the Cathar as a playable race, if a new teaser image is to be believed. The image, which can be seen below, was posted on the game's official Facebook page without a caption and the sliver of face in shot looks suspiciously like it belongs to one of the feline race. http://oyster.ignimgs.com/wordpress/stg.ign.com/2013/04/cathar_tease-610x343.png - - - - Not that hard, is it? Unless of course, unlike most of us, you already know the exact date when the Cathar will be made playable.

Try harder next time... Not a fan of IGN either for the most part but I for one am eager to know the release date, unless of course, you know already and would kindly share it with us, common mortals.

OMG you cant be this bad, tell me you arnt this bad, IGN has basically tried to claim that cathar was never heard of, that facebook is announcing it. Its not. We have known about cathar as long as we have known about makeb. No one knows the release date as its dropping with a patch, ign never claimed to know the release date of the patch. Star Wars: The Old Republic could be preparing to announce the Cathar as a playable race, if a new teaser image is to be believed. The facebook is just a teaser for the patch and the fact cathar are nearly here, this isnt new, its not an announcment as we had that at e3. So we arnt just finding out about cathar and ign didnt announce it, they are just trying to get traffic on old news.

IGN posted this as well, a few hours ago? http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10151444442528860&set=a.10150113796393860.291837.28984808859&type=1&permPage=1 Again, no need to be picky, since companies nowadays use Facebook all the time to place teasers. As such, it's safe to assume they'll reveal the release date for the Cathar pretty soon, instead of relying on the abstract "sometime in Summer". It's NOT old news, unless of course, again, you knew the release date already which you clearly DON'T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriosuly this is nothing about cathar release date, this is them saying cathar are going tobe a playable species, its in there title, this has nothing todo with teasers on facebook or twitter, on the swtor website or anywhere else. No one and i state no one has proclaimed the release date. IGN never claimed to know the release date. They claimed the facebook teaser was an announcment of the race itself. Which its not is it.

You protested and I challenged you to tell us, little people, the release date, which you clearly DON'T know... Thus, obviously not old news on that front. Again, not a fan of the abstract "sometime during the Summer"; News concerning incoming info is always appreciated.

Yes but lets both sit down and have a tea and cookie to share, all calm. right you know and i know that cathar have been announced as a species yes. right then so we both know that this unlike there statement isnt a playable race announcment is it. As such the article is incorrect yes. They stated Star Wars: The Old Republic could be preparing to announce the Cathar as a playable race Which isnt the case or the argument your put forward is it.

Kilora Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 Oh my goodness this is getting ridiculous. One of you is just trying to point out that the HEADLINE is mis-leading. Sensationalistic, if you will -- because we've KNOWN for over a year that Cathar would be playable. YES. The IGN article itself does present new information -- which is always welcome. It's the deplorable word choice in the title that is annoying. . . I didn't think it was that hard to grasp -- just normal anger at media for being manipulative.

Apeth Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 There aren't any current races you can only unlock through cc either. This is some uninformed badly written toilet from ign imo. And what's with the headline cathar are about to be released as a playable race? These guys a bit backwards or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
