SWTOR Seattle Cantina Tour Canceled
The Seattle Cantina Tour has been canceled, as BioWare needs to spend all it energy on getting Star Wars: The old Republic Fallen Empire ready. Instead the team will do a livestream with some gameplay of a chapter of the upcoming expansion. PAX Cantina – Important Update: Revised Plan | 07.27.2015, 08:22 AM Hey folks, We wanted to give you an update on a change of plans around our Seattle Cantina, planned to happen around PAX Prime. As we have been looking at our schedule, we feel that as we are just a few short months from Fallen Empire’s launch, it is really important that we focus our resources internally. Our goal is to deliver a AAA-quality expansion and we need to allow the team to put their focus on development priorities, to put all resources into making Knights of the Fallen Empire the best it can be. With that in…
SWTOR: Pax South Cantina Tour Flash Drive Files
Here are the Pax South Cantina Tour files provided by Baa’nariim of Harbinger. Below is a run through of what attendance learned at the conference. New costume designer coming with patch 3.2 and a video will be added soon. The decision for action taken against ravagers exploiters finalized this morning. There will be a post from musco about it (no specific timeframe on when this will take action or the post will happen) There is no plan to change the new slot machine’s drop rate from its current form. They are sort of “afraid” of releasing future slot machines (future slot machines for other cartel reputations) due to the backlash and the controversy created by the community. Two more game expansions before end of the year. New Togruta race, new stronghold New planet Ziost in April They read Bruce Macleans developer letter which is slated for release on the website…

SWTOR At PAX East Coverage
For anyone who did not get a chance to hear the Darthhater audio, Dulfy is offering up a transcript of it on Reddit. Darthater had some great coverage for the PAXEast 🙂 For those who don’t have time to listen to the original audio on Darthhater, I typed up the rough transcript of the Q& A panel: http://dulfy.net/2012/04/07/paxeast-2012-swtor-q-a-panel/ (hope you guys don’t mind ) It’s a pretty decent transcript and as always, we appreciate the time and effort Dulfy puts into helping Some of the highlights From Reddit: Q: Why are the smuggler missions not very smugglerly? I don’t get to transport stolen goods from one end of the galaxy to another. You don’t get to do anything that actually counts as a smuggler. All the quests are basically what can I do for you? What can I do for you? etc.. In other words: smugglers right now don’t get…
PAX Will Have a “Big Reveal” Regarding Companions
We’re all excited to hear all of the SWTOR news coming out of PAX this year but MMORPG.com has given us one more reason to get excited about PAX. In an interview with Rich Vogel, we learn some great things about the game as well as some things most of us already new. Still, it was a solid interview that’s worth the time to read over. The real big news came at the very end with a reference to a “big reveal” about companions at PAX. From the article by Carolyn Koh: “Companion characters will not be able to die,” said Rich, “we try not to let players do things that will hurt themselves. Companions can, however, be hurt, be captured, and not be able to adventure with your for a while.” There was more to the Companion system that I asked about, but they were saving it for a…

Friday update: Bounty Hunter PAX East Plans
Not everyone will find the life of a Jedi or Sith appealing in Star Wars: The Old Republic (SWTOR). Some will find the rugged lifestyle of a Bounty Hunter more to their liking. After all, one of the favorite characters in the Star Wars lineup is Boba Fett. How can you not have a class fashioned after one of the Star Wars galaxy’s most infamous Bounty Hunters? While Boba Fett is thousands of years from birth in SWTOR, his profession is well intact and BioWare revealed a new look at the SWTOR Bounty Hunter at GDC 2011. The latest reveal offers a look at Mako, a companion that can join young Bounty Hunters on their adventures and a notorious slicer, the Rattataki race, a violent species well-suited for bounty hunting and the D-5 Mantis Patrol Craft ship, built for a true Bounty Hunter. Lastly, a brand new Bounty Hunter class…
