I just love the weekly community Q & A session SWOTR.com because I learn so much from what other players think of the game. It was also pleasing to find that the questions are more in tune with the current game play instead of based on upcoming software.
The team at SWOTR.com offered:
“As a reminder, two weeks ago we suggested a shift in focus in your questions. As development plans are always subject to change, questions about future features will often get vague answers which can be repetitive and sometimes annoying. With that in mind, the development team is more interested in questions about current in-game features or systems, or questions about why development decisions were made.”
There were some really great questions this week and I was able to see some of my concerns answered as well. Here are some of the best questions from the night:
“Giolon: I read in patch notes that sniper rifles will no longer drop for Republic players – what about Risha and Zenith? These companions use sniper rifles. How are we supposed to gear them up if sniper rifles no longer drop for Republic players?
David Hunt: There are still several ways to get sniper rifles for Republic players – this change primarily removed them from boss drops. Sniper rifles can still be crafted, purchased from vendors, and modded. And with Game Update 1.2, weapons that drop more frequently on one side can always be mailed across from the other side with legacy characters.”
“Babouine: Will you guys add new stuff to the VIP area on the Fleets?
Daniel Erickson (Lead Game Designer): We will definitely be adding new items to the VIP areas on the fleets in the future, but we can’t give you an exact estimate on when just yet.”
“Mysquine: Whilst trying to do “/who x” (x being level) or “/who x-x” it does not return anything, if you type “/who x [planet]” then it will return the appropriate results. Is this intended?
Damion: That’s not intended. I will investigate.”
I hope these questions also gave you some answers. Feel free to discuss them below!
