FlavivsAetivs Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 (edited) When will more about this "Galactic Command" system be revealed? It seems to be implying that new "uprisings" will be released over the course of the year after the expansion. ~ Eudoxia Edited October 7, 2016 by FlavivsAetivs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkLordSnake Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 Eric, by far this is the BEST trailer you have done so far! It absolutely blew my mind, I cannot wait for this! Question however, "Be a Premium player", does that mean Subscriber status? I got a bit confused upon reading Premium, but I did see a mention of it as (Subscriber Status) so if that's the case, as long as we are subscribed we don't have to preorder the expansion? We still get early access for it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsetso Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 So, let me get that straight. We have to BUY the new expansion and still sub just to be able to play the old operations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christie_Swift Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 Whats the difference between Premium player and a gold sub? and for that matter what is a pre-order? Please elaborate since there are no blogs or official postings as to what these terms mean. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It works just like KOTFE in that there isn't anything to buy, premium members (subscribers) get it for free. -eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarallEsuritio Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 Eric, can you confirm that this 200% EXP is intentional and not a bug? I'd rather not level an alt and then find out it's a bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of us are wondering. Do we need to switch to a recurring payment to be premium? If so, then your statement is not quite accurate. Please clarify.

It works just like KOTFE in that there isn't anything to buy, premium members (subscribers) get it for free. -eric I`m a Subscriber , but it still wants me to pay £8.99 a month on top of the £8.99 Monthly Subscription i already pay , So for £17.98 a month for a game , i want MORE OPS , MORE PVP Maps and MORE Content.

Jerba Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 (edited) Enjoy unlimited access to the new Galactic Command system unlocked at Level 70 as you fight to grow your power and retain control of the galaxy in ongoing battles and Uprisings – alone or with friends – to earn the most valuable rewards. Nice trailer as always! Does "most valuable rewards" refer to endgame gear, or is it just cosmetic? If so, would be great to get a clarification on how the gearing process works come KotET. I'm not opposed to getting BiS gear from Uprisings (would be better than the Priority Ops system), but me and my raid group want to be prepared on how to gear up.

Kazyon Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 So no new ops? I saw a reference to bringing 3 allies so obviously some new single-group stuff, but ops? Also, when does DvL end? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dev Post EricMusco Posted October 7, 2016 Author Dev Post Share Posted October 7, 2016 So how does this apply to 60-day non-recurring subscribers? Some of us are wondering. Do we need to switch to a recurring payment to be premium? If so, then your statement is not quite accurate. Please clarify. Good question! The simple way to think of it is that anytime we would have said the word subscriber, we now say premium. That means that while you are inside of your game time card, you are a subscriber. Premium is not directly tied to recurring, it just means you have active sub time on your account. -eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kjchan Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 (edited) I was mentally prepared for them to completely ignore ops in the announcement. Was surprised to find out that the lack of ops still impacted me emotionally. It's going to be hard saying goodbye to so many friends in the PVE space.
