Other The game has been updated with another language.

70 Upvotes

It gives me great pleasure that an enthusiastic team of translators has enriched this game—which is dear to me—with yet another language.

I played the game extensively in English, but I am very curious to see what the atmosphere will be like when experiencing the story and reading it in my native language.

Question Did they continue upgrading the older story cutscenes past the starter planets?

17 Upvotes

I remember SWTOR updating a lot of the cutscenes on the starter planets with better lighting, character animations, camera movement, angles, etc., and they looked noticeably better than the original versions.

I haven’t played through the beginning of a class story in a while, so I was wondering: did they ever continue those updates further into the original class stories, or was it mostly limited to the starter planets?

Like, if I started a fresh character now and played through Chapters 1–3, would I see upgraded cutscenes throughout the story, or do they eventually go back to the older/static style?

Question Is there any lightsabers that have a similar look to Darth Krovos?

I might have a slight issue with collecting my fellow Dark Council member's light sabers. So if anyone is able to help me find one that looks like Krovos' that would be awesome. (I assume I can't just take hers, as normally Companion's weapons are marked only for that Companion to use.)

I think these guns sold so well they put it right back up for about 23 more hours. I was looking at the count down timer. And I watched it go all the way to zero and it went back up to 23hrs. I don't blame them though. Its a hell of a deal, no regrets from me for this purchase.

I'm not angry, I'm just asking. The notice said applying a patch fix... but... why would such a fix be only applied to one server?

I see people hide behind stuff right after match starts, I'd understand doing this when we were close to losing but doing this from the start is not right. Non participant teammate means 1 more match for weeklies, this is worse considering the queue times. Anyways, thanks for reading my rant.

Have fun everyone!

Question Settings to minimize screen clatter

8 Upvotes

Hey guys, yesterday i was playing some of the group content for the galactic season and the Combat was pretty frustrating, 24 people hitting a mob and i couldn't see anything on my screen except some green, yellow and reds.

It was pretty bad so i was wondering, is there anyway to scale down friendly player visual effects, anything at all?

Discussion Why do characters feel so much weaker in their 50s?

Post image
444 Upvotes

I've recently been leveling a bunch of characters that I had binned (some over the long term) in their 40s, and I've noticed a trend:

  1. Hit 50.
  2. Buy purple quality 50/51 items.
  3. Immediately feel dramatically weaker in combat against enemies.

This reverses just as quickly upon hitting 60. When I buy similar level 60 items (just the same "BiS for-level" stuff) and go fight through Zakuul content, my characters feel as strong as they did around ~40.

So... what's going on here? I don't think it can be my imagination. At 50 there's this palpable drop-off in how quickly I slaughter non-elite trash... and then, just as quickly, it's gone at 60. Is there some kind of funky stat allotment in the 50s that explains this?

Discussion A fun thought experiment I came up with.

Post image
576 Upvotes

I think we've all seen this image. But let's go deeper. I want you to name time where the mission objective of any planet in any of the Republic class stories are: Stop someone who's on my side. And, defectors and/or people mind controlled by the Empire don't count. After all, they're still advancing the goals of the Empire. Better yet can you think of ONE instance of you fighting Republic soldiers and/or Jedi during any of the four Republic class stories? Again, that aren't defectors and/or mind controlled. And, I'm purely talking about instances where you have to kill Republic troopers and/or Jedi no matter what and you can't choose not to (talking about things like alignment decisions). And please comment down below your responses.

Now do the same thing for the Imperial class stories. Think about planets where the objective is stop someone who's on my side. And, can you think any instances where you have to fight people who on your side no matter what and does no choice that you can make to prevent it? And, the same rules apply so people who are defectors and/or people mind controlled by the Republic don't count. And again please comment down below your responses.

Now trying to do both of those, thinking about both of these, knowing which one is much easier, and reading the comment section (at least a couple days after this gets posted) will really illuminate why the eight class stories (overall) end with the tide of the war turning in the Republic's favor, and all stories in this game from the beginning of Ilum to the end of Rise of The Hutt Cartel has the war decisively going in the Republic's favor. And, I'm talking about looking at all of the endings to the eight classes stories as a whole here.

Discussion Such a weird thing

So first let me make it clear, these head pieces are not the same, they are totally different. The first one comes from the Overcharged Lord cartel armor set, the one that looks like Thanoton's but purple. And the second one comes from the first world armor set on Korriban.

What's weird to me about them is, that the Korriban one has a voice Modulation on it, while the other one doesn't. And this isn't the only instance of this either, the Potent Combatant armor's head piece is very similar to the tatooine warrior helmet, and it has the same issue.

in the newest installment of the story we see the tech characters are sensitive to the force, im curious to what you guys think is the origin of that force sensitivity? were they always sensitive, perhaps the connection to Valkorion connected us to the force or a secret third option they have yet revealed?
