LycheeJuice Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 So as the title says... also, if not, then when or approximately how long after the patch releases? Thanks 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThanderSnB Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 1. In the past, Galactic Seasons have been released in the x.1 updates. 2. From the livestream, they said they wanted to release season 7 by the end of August. Therefore, I think season 7 will start this Tuesday, August 20. I have no idea why they didn't say that and make it clear. Maybe they will post something on Monday about the new season. That's what they did for season 6. The announcement was posted on a Monday and the season started the day after on Tuesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That does make it clear. I still wonder why they didn't mention it in the post about the patch day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a point of feedback for the devs, you need to expressly say stuff like that in your announcements. Leaving that detail out of the description can imply that it does not launch on the 20th.

Galahard Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 (edited) Yep, that sounds like something Bioware/Broadsword would do. 1. When they first announce it, and you WANT to know, they don't tell you the date. Because they are afraid they won't be able to live up to it. So they just hint. End of August. 2. When you actually NEED to know it, when the patch date is already fixed, they forget to tell you that yeah, with the patch, you get the new season. Also, didn't we get some preliminary information, what items can be acquired? Or are they leaving this for the last minute also? You know Bioware/Broadsword, some of your players have lives and don't have time to wait for your announcement/information in the last minute. Some of us would want some time to be able to digest the information and plan our activities accordingly. Geez. BTW, if you want a "professional" presentation, I suggest checking out Swtorista's video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jd1tHIFJrG4 Edited August 16 by Galahard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They revealed some of the season 7 items during the Livestream video (around 21:15 mark): https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2205326971 For Season 6, they also listed all the items in a news post the Monday before it started. If they do the same thing for season 7 the news post will appear on Monday, August 19. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The big question is if they will make changes to how the season is done without telling players like they did for Season 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully, good ones like removing the junk gray item grind or making them easier to find (double how many are given from weeklies/dailies).

Yeah, I meant that article, with ALL the details on items, like weapons, decos etc.: https://www.swtor.com/info/news/article/20240311 Last time I see they published it also the day before it went live. 🤦♂️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gimpeline Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 So soon? I was hoping for a month or two without seasons. It's a game, not work. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean they do give you a few weeks break, I'm glad new Season doesn't take too long to start; having said that, even if you start a month late, still gives plenty of time to finish.

Peeps get tired because they feel like they need to do it. That’s kinda the point I only focused/completed GS on one toon, and I was itching for the next one to start. Glad I don’t have to wait long for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galahard Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 (edited) So where is detailed write-up about Galactic Season 7? With all the detailed levels and rewards? Similar to this: https://www.swtor.com/info/news/article/20240311 Am I missing something? It's not in the patch notes...
