Star Wars: The Old Republic Dev Tracker

Bumping this thread as there is an update from the team. Please see the first post's newest edit/update.

Nine years is an incredible run for any game, but to see SWTOR still delivering original Star Wars stories set in the Old Republic era the entire time is truly something special. It takes a passionate team, incredible players and fans, and support from too many people to name to accomplish such a feat.

I�ve enjoyed so many lasting memories through the years as both a player and a developer: The Orange Pixel (RIP), double Kephess, light sword in box, dance parties on the fleet, walker parades...the list goes on and on. Some say there�s even an NPC golfing somewhere on every planet. Who can say?

And yet, after all of these years, we find ourselves looking forward still. There are so many more stories to tell...so many more experiences we want to deliver and share with the community. What could be next? We dream big in Texas, so buckle up y�all!

Looking back at 2020, makes me ask myself how did we make it through the year? But, we all did it!

Despite the worldwide situation, this year has been a great year for me. Joining the SWTOR family and building relationships with players during this particular year was a great and challenging adventure for me. I want to thank the SWTOR team and the community for their support.

On a personal note, I've started running on a daily basis and I'm now able to run 5k every day. Funny thing, I hated running before.

I'm looking forward to seeing what next year brings!

Hello everyone!

Today marks SWTOR�s 9th anniversary! Since SWTOR launched on December 20th, 2011, each year has brought new memories and accomplishments to players and devs alike. And this year will certainly be one that stands out for everyone. As we continue through our 9th year, we would love to hear from you, our community, on what you are most proud of and/or grateful for whether that be in-game or IRL.

I�m happy to start this train! I feel very fortunate for having the opportunity to join this wonderful team! I had no idea how this year would turn out, but I made it here and I am going to make the absolute best of it. I am over the moon, and very much looking forward to what all of us can create together in the coming year. On a more personal note, I managed to cook my very first turkey this past holiday on my own without burning down my kitchen, so I have that going for me as well.

Hi Monjinx,

Wanted to say thank you for the post and that I did read it. I can't speak to everything you listed here as I'm still learning as much as I can in many areas. I do want to say that my being here is to support different pockets of the community. It goes without saying that this year has been full of overcoming challenges and adapting to new processes. All I can ask right now is allow us (the community team) time to process and evaluate 2020 so that we can set our goals, expectations, etc... for the new year.

I've said this before and I will reiterate. I'm here to help bridge a lot of the communication between dev and player and vice versa. Changes will not be made overnight, but I hope that with time, you and others can see that we are striving to build up this community. Again, thanks for posting.

Also, I appreciate the avocado reference.

Hi everyone, just wanted to address this post. We could use a little more info regarding each of your experiences. What would be most ideal is if you could please write an in-game bug report when you are experiencing the issue. Additionally, could you also provide the specs you are using. Some questions we have are-

-Was the phase left at any point or was the FP played in one go without interruption?

-How much dedicated VRAM is available?

This info will help out a lot! Thanks!

Hi YaddleTwo,

Theron Shan might be using a slow mail service? His mail can take some time before reaching you.

Another player claimed that it took 72 hours before receiving his mail here: Bugged Satele Shan info in Contacts + other things.

Use of that term in a derogatory sense or insulting manner is not acceptable regardless if it is used against a person. I am asking that it not be used here in this space. And again, I ask that posts in this thread remain on topic.

Me addressing the post outright is a form of moderation. There is also a way of reporting a problematic post and that gets set to our team for review. If you want to recommend other ways to moderate the forums, feel free to PM, but I am I asking now that responses here are on topic with the OP.

Hi folks,

Here is a new workaround to fix the Quick Play issue without re-downloading the whole game:

If you�re stuck at the Select Character screen with the Quick Play message (upper right) follow those instructions:

1. Open a new Launcher (do not close the game, keep it on the Select Character screen).
2. Log in, but DO NOT PRESS PLAY ON THE LAUNCHER.
3. Come back to the first window with the Select Character screen, you will notice that the Quick Play message is no longer visible.
   • If the Character Play buttons are still greyed out: Open the Select Server window with the Server Selection button (bottom left) and select any server (including the one you�re already �on�).
4. You should now be able to choose your character.

Note: You will need to follow these steps each time you launch the game.

Hi Kissakias,

As mentioned in the following thread: Spoils of War Set Bonus items not working, our team is currently looking into it.

In the meantime, you can follow this workaround: If you have the set, mail it to another character. It will fill the setlist and unlock the Achievement. Which is also available in the known issues list: ... Read more

Hi everyone,

To highlight the workaround, I've added it to the Game Update 6.2 - Known Issues:

• If you have the set, mail it to another character. It will fill the setlist and unlock the Achievement.

Hi folks,

I'm closing this thread as this discussion is a duplicate of the following one: Spoils of War Set Bonus items not working.
