We’ve known for quite some time now that faithful SWTOR subscribers would receive some type of appreciate reward. But now we finally know what it is as Eric Musco confirmed in the forums with this post: Hey folks, As some of you have already begun to figure out, every subscriber is receiving a bonus of 500 Cartel Coins. Some of you may not have gotten them yet but don’t worry, the process takes a few hours. All of you should be receiving your 500 coins today. As an additional tease, we have something coming to the Cartel Market later this month that is going to be super, super cheap and available for one day only! All I will say for now is hang on to 10 Cartel Coins and look for details soon™. -eric Hey! Pretty cool, right? He also mentions that you should hold on to at least 10…

TOR TV: swtorHELL – a music Video
GGAvrii made this awesome 1o min fan film that reminds us of “a New Meme“. If you haven’t already watched that short movie yet, you are really missing out. It is one of the funniest SWTOR movie to date. This movie is great to though. GGavrii Basically made a random music with video elements that shouldn’t work together, but they do! And they do so really well. I especially like the ‘I want it now’ segment, and I swear the Dark Knight music gets me every time!

2.3 Graphical Color Improvements to SWTOR
SWTOR is getting something of a makeover in terms of colors. Most will agree that it’s an improvement but for those who have grown accustomed to seeing it in its darker fashion might not approve. Personally, I like it. I really think some zones were just a bit too dreary and drab with all the grey/brown. I like the improved colors and crispness of it all. It also seems to have more of a real feel and texture rather than the cartoony feel in some zones. I like this. One user shared some before and after pics on Reddit to help us see what the color changes look like: What’ll strike you first is the sheer colour in the game. These screenshots were taken in the exact same locations, with the same gamma/brightness/graphics settings. Before: After: Before: After: To be honest, while I think this is a good move, I…
