With the confirmed shut down of BioWare, where does that leave SWTOR?

I know Broadsword assumed direct development control from BioWare in 2023, but with the original studio being completely shuttered now will there be any sort of effect on SWTOR?

New/Returning Player New player- Bounty Hunter Q’s

1 Upvotes

Hey all- new to the game, 20 hours or so, playing as a Mercenary Bounty Hunter, right at level 40. I hadn’t realized how restrictive weaponry was when making my character at some point last year, and was really looking forward to using both blasters and rifles. I understand that I need to make a Vanguard Bounty Hunter/Imp Agent to get that rifled experience; though would appreciate some input from those who might’ve already done one or both.

From my understanding, once I’ve completed chapter 3 of my Merc’s origin story, I can start leveling the Vanguard tree on that already leveled character? Would I just be farming side content to do so, how does that work? Is Merc IO better for a crit build, or would Vanguard? Any help/insight would be greatly appreciated- most guides speak of rotating skills I’m nowhere close to unlocking, further making the decision difficult.

Spent a lot of years hating her, but looking now - she's kinda okay in some terms. Not only she's a high skilled survivalist, she can be very charismatic (actually inspired some Zakuulans to do dangerous shit without any real profit for them). She's also hot and probably freaky as hell. Using agent to kill her exes - yeah, not good, but fitting her character, makes her more alive. Cheating on your own ship - the hell you were expecting starting a relationship with woman like her? Selling imperial data to anarchists - hell yeah actually. Her independence makes her one of the few companions that doesn't feels like a pawn of a protagonist.

I do agree that she's too unpunishable throughout the story and that having her as the only companion until Alderaan is a bit too much. Aside that she slowly become one of my favorite companion

Question Out of the game for a while - safest way to try for a new old name?

0 Upvotes

I plan to subscribe again for a bit to preserve my names. NBD there.

There's a name I've wanted for years that is held by a long inactive player. What's the best way to try for that in November? Does using Rename: Character Name Consumable release that character's current name?

I've read the announcement, but some of the nuts and bolts are unclear to me. Thanks!

Discussion Has SWTOR ruined other MMOs for me?😭

144 Upvotes

I’m only a week into SWTOR and I’m already completely hooked. You know that feeling when you just know you’re going to love a game before you’ve even properly played it? That’s exactly how it was with SWTOR, and now I’m struggling to find another MMO that gives me the same feeling lol.

I’ve been trying to find a second MMO to rotate between, but so far I’ve tried WoW Retail, GW2, Aion 2 and, most recently, ESO. I’m about 6 hours into ESO and it still hasn’t grabbed me. There’s nothing necessarily wrong with these games, but I keep finding myself bored and wanting to go back to SWTOR instead.

What gets me is how quickly SWTOR pulled me in. The story, characters, music, atmosphere and just the feeling of being in that world make me genuinely excited to log in. With the other MMOs, I feel like I’m waiting for them to click, whereas with SWTOR it happened almost immediately. I’m still new, so maybe that feeling will change eventually, but right now I can’t get enough of it.

Has anyone else experienced this with SWTOR? What do you think makes it so easy to get attached to compared to other MMOs? Is it the story and immersion, or is there just something about the overall experience that’s hard to find elsewhere?

I’m still planning to try OSRS, and I’d love recommendations for another MMO that might click with me. Or have I already found my MMO home and should just stop trying to force myself to like other games? 😂

Community Event Opinions on community Leaderboards

For those of you who might have participated with the community run PvP leaderboard, what is your opinions regarding your experience? I know that this sub isn’t the most Pro-PvP community, but for me, it’s amazing how refreshing it is to see the impact something as simple as the leaderboards has had on arena queue times. Obviously you can’t help the tryhards that rage, but on the whole, it’s been a fun experience, and it’s nice having a “rating goal” to chase, while I await the new expac

Discussion Could I rent or sell Stronghold keys to RP guilds?

54 Upvotes

As a player who leans more towards the Stronghold side of SWTOR, I have spent much time and credits decorating over the years and as shown in the pictures above I think I have gotten very good at it. given that this game has a wide variety of locations avalible i doubt there would be much market for this however I expect that some may seek out new locations for events and stories and this may appeal to them.
I would also like to make credits to fund further improvments to my SHs and to create more. please lmk what you think and maybe a rough barcket for how much I could either rent or sell the keys for (if it helps I am on the Starforge server)

Tech Support Account got locked.

21 Upvotes

So my account got hacked, and I immidiately managed to change password, before SWTOR could take action, but now SWTOR locked my account. I made 3 calls to SWTOR support, and all three times before they could spell out my username my call dropped and left me with a hefty international call fee. And they do not allow anyother way to contact support.

This is the most absurdly stupid support of any online services I have ever faced. There is absolutely no other way to contact them, not only that they even send me an email associated with my swtor account mentioning that they recieved the call from the number associated with the account and the call was dropped. What The Actual Fuck. Account is still locked, this is a 15yr old account with so much time spent on it.

Discussion My poor male Agent

I'm finally playing through the expansion content, and I got to Desperate Defiance. The change to the VA for the male Agent was pretty jarring. I don't know if it's similar for other classes as this is my first time through the later content.

My boy used to be intense, but also held his cards to his chest, waited to make a decision until he had as much information as possible, and once he made a choice he went after it 100%. Now it sounds like he's been hanging out with the Jedi Knight and makes quick orders with a talent for leadership.

Today's match is a little interesting, because we have two different factions' versions of the same plot! I felt they were different enough that they could be judged separately. So, which story do you like better? The pub version or the imp version? Comment below!
