Galactic Seasons Feedback Thread Update post from first week of feedback Secrets of the Enclave Flashpoint In this new Flashpoint, players will visit the ruins of the Jedi Enclave on Dantooine in pursuit of Darth Malgus. Experience a unique story and fight different enemies based on your alliance to the Empire or the Republic. The Flashpoint’s Story-Solo Mode will not be available on PTS to avoid story spoilers. Only the Veteran Mode can be tested straight away, and Solo and Master mode will be available at a later date. To try out the Flashpoint: You’ll need a level 75 characterForm a party and queue up in Group FinderOnce you’re fully logged into the PTS, head on over to Odessen to pick up the Secrets of the Enclave Flashpoint Mission!

Nee-Elder Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 (edited) Hello everyone, PTS is now live! Galactic Seasons Galactic Seasons feature new high-value rewards based on playing the game. Let us know your thoughts! hey there, i haven't been able to get into PTS yet but i never saw any response yet (at least, not on the forums) about this issue/question, so i just wanted to put this here so it wouldn't get lost amidst the other thread: http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?p=9928899#post9928899 (re: Query about increasing both our personal strongholds cap limit, as well as allowing us GM's to assign more than one stronghold per guild-to-travel list ) --- Whoops , bad post-order timing on my part.... Hi all, Update on PTS above. Sorry! Edited March 22, 2021 by Nee-Elder lol sorry about posting seconds before your most important post, Jackie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordAppius Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 Can«t even test it right.... Better now than whatever bug or story piece they allowed into the game. Lets see how it works how in the next hours .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kondrad-Hyland Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 (edited) It was back for a brief moment before it deded again i was on there this morning and it went POOF and still offline Edited March 23, 2021 by Kondrad-Hyland Correcting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xordevoreaux Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 (edited) When this gets back online, any day now, i just can't wait for the flood of ppl to complain about how hard the tank and spank bosses are ..... I wish Bioware devs would make bosses hard, like Lost Island, but that is not happening ..... Reach a certain broad level of difficulty and the largess of casuals will quit out of frustration, leaving behind a few die-hard PvP types to fight over the dwindling queues. There's a reason why the game is relatively easy. Back on topic: Forgot how long a full download is. Hopefully I'll be on the PTS in a couple of hours.

Please also note that the prices you will see during PTS are for testing purposes only and not real. I will be updating the original post with this information. Jackie Hi all, I got my communication wires crossed. Please disregard my note above and include the pricing of items in your feedback if would like to offer any. Apologies for the confusion!

JediQuaker Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 Somehow I got the impression that Fleet Apartments would be on the PTS. Is this coming at some point? (It's the only reason I downloaded the PTS again. 😥 ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Banthabreeder Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 JackieKo, Can you confirm that you are reading the "Fleet Penthouse Stronghold Feedback" thread created by Screaming_Ziva? It's not stickied like the other threads so hopefully everyone who is posting feedback there isn't doing it for nothing. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stradlin Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 (edited) I think it'd be nice practice to start handing out some cute but pointless vanity-tier trinkets for people testing. Legacy titles and such. There isn't that much feedback or testers around by the looks of it. Would be nice to lure some more crowds in.

There has been a number of those actually. They've handed out stuff like log mounts and legacy titles like 3-4 times at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenKatarn Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 So, the PTS has been down since yesterday, without any notice. Is something going on in the background or is further testing just postponed? Was in the middle of doing stuff on PTS when it disconnected me. Server has been shown as offline since. I was hoping / expecting that it would be back after today's backend maintenance, but no luck so far. There was a new version to download yesterday, but even with that, PTS is still down.

Legacy titles and such. There isn't that much feedback or testers around by the looks of it. Would be nice to lure some more crowds in. People get tired of testing half-finished bad ideas, providing feedback, and having none of it taken into account. I pretty much log on to PTS just to see what is coming and rarely bother with feedback anymore unless I find some major game-stopping or client crashing bug. And absent coordinating a group effort (like a guild testing an Op), it has always been difficult to test group content on the PTS - so maybe offering some trinkets and setting a few specific dates and times to log on to get them and play with / against the devs in specific group content might help.

That would be me. I gave up on the idea that testing and reporting anything on the PTS does any good, but I'm easily bribed. (Not that I've figured out how to get the PTS download on Steam...)

Dev Post JackieKo Posted April 12, 2021 Author Dev Post Share Posted April 12, 2021 Hi everyone, We will be bringing down PTS shortly and you will no longer be able to access it. Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback on the Secrets of the Enclave Flashpoint and Galactic Seasons. You will be able to experience both of these when 6.3 launches at a later date.
