Star Wars: The Old Republic Dev Tracker

We will be taking the servers offline on January 24 at 7am CT / 1pm  UTC to deploy Game Update 7.4b. Estimated downtime is 4 hours. A full list of patch notes can be found here tomorrow: https://www.swtor.com/patchnotes

Hello everyone!

Following up on the character transfers to the Shae Vizla server conversation. Starting a new thread to keep all discussion relevant to the info provided below. We will be doing transfers with a few limitations in place. They are the following:

• There will be a minimum character level requirement. Specific level TBD. 
• For transfers specifically to Shae Vizla, we are looking to provide free transfers, for a specific period, of time to players who have been a Subscriber for at least 90 consecutive days.
  • There will be a limited number of free transfers allowed. 
• There will be a credit cap limit per character. We are still determining the exact amount.   

As we work toward pinning down the specifics of these limitations, we will keep you informed of when transfers will be opening up. 

For easy reference, players can read throug...

Hi everyone, 

Just letting you all know that we are going to be releasing Game Update 7.4b next week (exact date TBD). A full list of patch notes will be available either on Monday or Tuesday. There’s quite a bit in this patch but to give you a glimpse into some of the fixes that will be going into this update, the following will be included: 

• Saboteur players will now see the option to contact Jonas when dealing with the SIS on Ord Mantell.
• The "Separatist Elimination Requisition Cache" now rewards Tech Fragments instead of Conquest Commendations as intended.
• Loot will correctly appear after the 3rd boss of Objective Meridian.
• FR/DE - Daily and Weekly PVP missions now appear in the mission terminals.
• Fixed an issue where the drop rates of Galactic Seasons reputation currency were lower than intended in previous seasons.

There’s a lot more coming to this update, and we...

Hello!

The red phase is actually where you completed the previous mission, the correct phase for 'Heist of the Millennium' should be just around the corner. Please have another look.

Hi everyone, 

Heads up. Tomorrow (Dec 22), we're going to push an update to the Collection Unlock sale to include the items that are reportedly missing.  We'll continue to keep an eye on this thread. 

Thanks!

Hello again, 

Gonna make this one follow up post for now as the team is getting ready to break for the upcoming holiday. 

I wanted to hop into this thread to generate conversation about what players (particularly those who are in the APAC region) want when it comes to character transfers for the Shae Vizla server. 

I want us to have a respectful conversation and/or friendly discourse about what's best for our players in the APAC region, and of course, for our game. Our ultimate goal is to have a healthy server that also provides the best home for our APAC players. 

We opened an APAC server to create a better overall experience for the regional players and grow the number of players in that region. We also had the unique opportunity to improve the economy by delaying and possibly restricting the amount of credits that flowed into the server. That is giving us very insightful details about what defines a healthy economy.

We...

Hi everyone, 

Wanted to chime in and give you all an update on where we stand with character transfers to the Shae Vizla server. 

• One of our top priorities is keeping the economy on the Shae Vizla server stable.
• We are still evaluating Shae Vizla player populations and activity to determine the best timeframe to open transfers to/from the server. We're reviewing a variety of data points, including (but not limited to), credits obtained, characters created, current character levels, Achievements, and more.  

There is a lot we are learning about the economy and introducing millions or billions of credits will negate our ability to make any refinements. I want to let you all know about some of the topics we are discussing behind the scenes. 

One point I do want to address upfront, when we initially launched the server, we said we intended to open transfers at a later time. That is still a possibility, but...

Hi folks, 

Wanted to pop in and let you know we just published our 12 year anniversary article, and encourage you all to give it a read. We're looking forward to showing you what's coming up next with the game. Wishing you all a happy holiday and new year.

Hey Community!

Thanks for bringing this to our attention. We’ve investigated and the drop rates are in fact lower than intended. We made an internal change to how these drops are distributed and it unintentionally reduced the drop rate of the Galactic Season Reputation items. We will be fixing this in an upcoming patch, and the drop rates will return to what you remember!

I'll pass that along for the team to look into. If there's anything else, let us know in this thread. 

Good morning everyone, 

The Collection Unlock sale is live. Enjoy!  

Hello all,

We have a few more known issues that the Dev team is aware of and looking into. 

1. Saboteur players do not currently see the option to contact Jonas when dealing with the SIS on Ord Mantell.
2. Tooltips: Use abilities on items in the tooltip may incorrectly remain on other item's tooltips in the Cartel Market. This can be resolved by closing and reopening the market.

Thank you for your patience and for reaching out!

Hi everyone,

Update on the Hermit's Vigil unlock in Collections. Specifically, this known issue:

• Players who received the incorrectly named Elite Tactician Blaster Pistol will not be able to use it to unlock the Hermit's Vigil in Collections.

A fix for this is not possible to roll out in a patch, however, we want to ensure that this unlock works for player who received the incorrectly named pistol. We ask those players to reach out to our support team at [email protected] to request the unlock. Please be sure to include your account name when reaching out.

Thanks for your patience, all.

Hi all, 

We are still unable to reproduce this issue during our testing and investigation, so the team would like some additional information from players who are experiencing this issue.

• For groups who are seeing dead players during their Ops run, what happens when the "dead" players is set as a focus target?
• Do they show up as alive again or does nothing happen? 

Appreciate any assistance with helping us track down what's causing this issue. Thanks! 

Hi everyone, 

The account pages have been updated and all web pages should now be available as normal. We did discover that players who are locked out of their accounts may not be able to reset their passwords, so we are actively working on a fix. I'll keep this thread updated with more info as I get it. 

Thanks!
