During a livestream on Twitch today, BioWare Community Manager Eric Musco teased players with what appears to be a video of player housing in Star Wars: The Old Republic. The video is showing a character inside what appears to be a Coruscant apartment with the words "Welcome Home" appearing on-screen. A bed, mailboxes, and other housing items populate the room.
EA is nearing an agreement to move the ongoing development and operation of MMORPG Star Wars: The Old Republic from BioWare to third-party studio Broadsword Online Games, IGN has learned. The move is intended to allow BioWare to focus on Mass Effect and Dragon Age.
A new update for Star Wars: The Old Republic is coming out on PC and the patch notes provide us with an in-depth look at all the new changes.
I loved this game and have played since launch but don't let this article fool you, this game is a step above life support. While they are still technically updating the game, the updates are few and far between and there is a significant lack of quality control, so many little bugs that have been present for years.
SWTOR players, get ready for a new month of exciting in-game events! Here's what's coming up in January 2023.
Okay this is totally cool but it better be legacy wide or something. I really don't want to manage 8 houses.
Well lets look at what bw did with housing in ME3 Citadel. It was mainly a story extension. I know bw has stated they wont continue the player stories, but how about new companion conversions? It would be nice for my companion romances to actually end up in a bed as oppposed to walking off screen them talking about how awesome it was. If the housing turns out to be solely cosmetic, it will be a rather big missed opportunity.
Cautiously excited. The implementation and functionality is what's gonna make this cool or really lame. Just an empty zone to hang out in yourself? Or a cool place people will want to see?
Is it going to be just one house in the exterior zone that leads to an instance? If so id be less than thrilled.
My opinion on this is its a nice feature . Swtor needed something like this a long time ago . Players have been asking a long time for player housing and guild ships. That being said I feel this is a direct response to an up coming mmo which has a robust player housing system. (wildstar)
That being said if they do this right and make it a credit sink and not something we need to use real cash for I will be happy.
