Star Wars: The Old Republic Dev Tracker

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!

Hello everyone, 

Update regarding the account page upgrades. We will need to extend the timeline on the rollout of these upgrades which will impact log ins for a period of time. The forums will still be available for players who were logged in prior to 9am CT, however, it will be in read-only for anyone logged out. This does not impact your game account at all. I will post another update regarding the rollout timeline when I have more info. 

Thanks!

Hey everyone,

We’re making some site upgrades to the account pages on swtor.com starting tomorrow (December 14th) morning. These changes will improve both the ease of use for players on the front end and streamline processes on the backend that will allow for us to build further upon our modernization efforts.

The rollout will begin at 9am CT / 3pm UTC and we are estimating that it will take roughly 3 hours. While the swtor.com site will not be taken down, there may be instances where pages may error out. If you run into said errors, please wait at least 10 minutes before reloading the page again. This rollout will not impact any of the game’s servers.

Below is a list of known issues that are being tracked by the web team.

• Using the browser back button can break the page, displaying a screen-wide loading bar.
• Clicking on the SWTOR logo in the top left of the page switches language to English.
