Check it out below:   Howdy, folks. Cory Butler here to follow-up on some of your concerns that have been surfacing in the forums and on social media sites around Game...

Community FeedBack Process

Community FeedBack Process

Eric Musco has an interesting forum post today, on how BioWare handles feedback. Basically he is saying that SWTOR developers are indeed listening to what  the community have to day,   but it’s not  easy to implement what the players want, or do not want. There is a technically part to the game, and let’s also be honest, most people on the official forums are insane! Reading through the forum thread started by Eric, I can’t stop laughing.   Many people are now writing stuff like “Well, since you said you do...

2.1.0b Patch Notes 5/17/2013

Patch notes are up. We were almost right yesterday. It was a bug fix with he crystals.

Maintenance: May 17th, 2013 – Patch 2.1.0b

BioWare will be taking down the servers tomorrow to preform maintenance as well as deploying a new patch. Patch notes are not available yet, but giving the developer responses on the forums, it’s probably some kind of exploits / bug thing they need to fix fast.  Might have to do with the collections crystals “bug” (mainly because I don’t know if it’s considered a bug) where you can essentially get free crystals from the cartel market. On the other hand.. Patching up to a weekend, might be because of an...

SWTOR New Dyes- Random Packs is a Crapshoot

If you’ve had any experience in the new SWTOR armor dyes found in the Cartel Market, then you might already know there are some issues with getting the colors you want. The dye modules are preset combinations, for one thing, and you have to be lucky and get the colors you’re looking for, or you have to keep buying until you get what you want. There’s a real gamble to get the Primary/Secondary/Third color settings that you want, especially on the first go at it and some players are not happy about it at all. They feel it’s a ploy from...

MTSBWY:  “just dip it in carbonite!”

“Is your neighbor’s domesticated canine keeping you up at night? Well, just dip it in carbonite!” “A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away…there were infomercials!” Check out this funny video by The Gamer Chick that shares some great infomercials from the Star Wars universe. I know if I came across the “Home Carbonite Kit” while flipping the channels one night that I’d definitely buy one!  It features a geek-filled cast: Bonnie Burton, Adrianne Curry, Grant Imahara and...
