A/V The Old Republic MMO: The New Official Thread

only kind of?

I was disapointed since it introduced a few new interesting enemies for your character and I think it was the best part of the Knights of Eteranl stuff.

 

Did TROS name the Sith ETERNAL deliberatetly after the Eternal Empire? Zakuul and Exegol sure were an item once...

 

I was being too generous.

There are A LOT of nods to the Eternal Throne storyline in Episode IX, from the insanely powerful fleet, to the Eternal Throne/Sith Throne parallel, Kylo/Arcann's redemption and role in the final battle against Sidious/Valkorion, Rey/The Outlander being threatened to be possessed by the main villain, some people compare Dark Rey to Vaylin in a stylish sense. It would be cool if the final fight with Palpatine was a mind battle inside Rey's mind like with Valkorion, it would have made his final death more believable and "final" than his previous one.

 

TROS is very much in the form of the knights of the fallen empire.

Emperor thought dead but really alive and hiding in the unknown regions? Check

Super powerful fleet? Check

and fanboy beat me to the rest.

 

sorry for the double post

But swoop event testing (work in progress)



While it is not pure pazak, it is really cool to see.

 

That's great, it is only a matter of time until Pazaak makes it into the game, this looks fun, i hope it doesn't have many sub restrictions, or being lvl75 only, as i can't get past 70 if i don't subscribe (but i'm too broke for now).

 

Considering that supposedly they had everything done, except for VO I hope it means that we will see the next story update a little sooner.

 

According to the wook

he is a writer and director

Arcann's voice actor has confirmed that he is back recording him. IMHO is a good thing considering that I'm always unhappy when companions are becoming "mute" after their story is done, so I am glad to hear more from some of them in the future.

 

Hey (swoop) Gang! look out for the racing


Also new news readers, I like the new Empire one.

 

Breaking news

SWTOR is now on steam!

 

From the latest livestream (full coverage here: https://swtorista.com/articles/swtor-developer-livestream-notes-july-21-2020/)

6.2 (Holidays) – Echoes of Vengeance

• Originally aiming for fall / late summer, better to push it out for quality
• Voiceover is in progress and wrapping up
• Want to put a little more work and polish in to it to make it the best it can be
• Extra stuff coming in it too
• Two story updates in one
• Kira/Scourge/Satele follow up
• New flashpoint: Face new enemies and old as conflict erupts among the Mandalorians! All about Mandos. Conflict about how Mandos should move forward in the Old republic.
• Might get a hint about that in an earlier update???

 

First off thank you,

Secondly by "Two story updates" do they mean the Kira/Scourge/Satele and the new flash point are both story drivers? ie, move the plots forward.

What does the last line mean? That the update will have hints for future stuff?

 

Two story updates means that with 6.2 we will get two storylines - the end of Satele/Kira/Scourge storyline and the beginning of the conflict among Mandalorians.

As for hints, is that we might get some of them (about Echoes of Vengeance or Mandos) in earlier updates.

 

Thanks.

I wonder if Fett is behind the Mando civil war.

 

This seems relevant

 

Forgot just how far behind I was on even what new PLANETS were being added to the game...

 

Well the rouges could have support from 'the otherside' and so Avenger needs your help to put them down.

 

I admit to a certain frustration with recent events. You are the Emperor of Zakuul, leader of the Alliance, and everything is AWESOME. Now you're...back to being Sith Council member and everything is like it never happened.

It's really enough to remove a sense of accomplishment, especially if you were really invested in the Alliance.

What's that about?

 

Ok a few points.

1. You were never Emperor of Zakuul. Zakuul is now a third rate system being over run by the exchange.

2. The Alliance lost most of it's people to the Republic and Sith Empire after you beat Zakuul.

3. You lost your fleet and big ship at the end of the Nathema Conspiracy.

4. You don't HAVE to rejoin your old faction, if you like the Alliance you can just stay in that.

Finally people (my self included) find the KotFE/EE story boring and dull, with nowhere for it to go now other than more uprisings. So they are moving back to the original story. The war between Republic and Sith Empire, since people like that setting.
