SammyRath Posted December 25, 2011 Share Posted December 25, 2011 Is there a set date yet? To the best of my knowledge no. The most accurate time I can give you is 3,643 BBY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luchiferchuga Posted December 25, 2011 Share Posted December 25, 2011 To the best of my knowledge no. The most accurate time I can give you is 3,643 BBY. im wondering if its a date ingame for roleplay because saying its the year 3,643 Before Battle of Yavin wouldnt make sense for someone currently living 3000 years before that.

I don´t remember but we are supposed to be around 10 ATC I think. /former Captain Glom, not former historian Glom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

During the run-up to the game, BioWare created a dating system based on the signing of the Treaty of Coruscant, so the game would be 10 ATC.

Well... If you had a time machine, and then traveled 3000+ years into the future and saw the battle of Yavin, it would make sense. But seeing we don't have time machines then no, you're right that doesn't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VanorDM Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Cold_War The problem with that is it lists the date in BBY, Before Battle of Yavin. For the characters in TOR, they would have no way of knowing when the battle of Yavin would take place, so they'd never use that sort of dating system.

For the characters in TOR, they would have no way of knowing when the battle of Yavin would take place, so they'd never use that sort of dating system. Who cares? You're not a character in ToR. The point of reference used doesn't matter. BBY or ATC, it all lines up the same on the timeline. If it's that big a problem, then just do the math. Subtract 3,653 from whatever BBY year is giving you issues and call it BTC/ATC. Edited January 12, 2012 by CharagonIGN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Htunrak_Leahcim Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 aproxamately 500 years after KOTOR, 3500 years before the movies, I beleive that was what had been said. So in short this takes place well after the Madolorian wars and the Jedi Civil Wars? So Raven and Malak have came and went, and this is the rebuilding phase of the Jedi order?

DAWUSS Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 Another calendar system would be to use the Republic's founding date and go from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
