1.3 heading to PTS servers

Game Update 1.3 is almost ready for deployment onto the Public Test Server. We still need to finalize a few things, but we wanted to let you know that the Public Test Server will be coming down soon so that we can prep Game Update 1.3 for PTS deployment. You can expect the Public Test Server to come back up with Game Update 1.3 in the next few weeks.

Game Update 1.3 is focused around the new Group Finder function, which will help you find other players to group up with for Flashpoints and Operations easily. In addition, the Legacy System has been updated with purchasable character perks. Leveling a new Legacy character can now be customized to your preferred play style.

Our Character Copy tool is still in testing, so we are again using a manual process to copy characters from our Live servers to our Public Test Server. We have streamlined this process to ensure we can get as many players as possible copied to the PTS if they choose to help test our new systems.

If you would like to help us out in testing Game Update 1.3, please visit the following link and follow the directions within:

https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/PTSCopySWTOR

We cannot guarantee that every character will copy to the PTS successfully, however we can assure you that characters on Live servers will not be affected in any way should the tool fail.

Please do not contact Customer Support with questions regarding PTS Character Copies, as they will be unable to assist you at this time.

Thanks in advance!

 

 

You can sign up for the character copy program.  I know people bailed on this game, but I still dig it.  And I beat Diablo and see no real need to play Nightmare mode.  Anyway, I signed up to copy my Trooper over.

You're hanging on too tight Lala...you've lost the edge.  This game will be a complete graveyard (yes even with transfers) in less than 3 months.

I hear you.  I'm like Charlie Brown and Bioware is Lucy holding the football.  "Next patch will fix it".  Trust me, I'm not the champion of this game.  SWTOR blew it and blew it big time.  They had an opportunity to be a highly successful MMO.  And while no one is ever going to top WoW, they could of been relevant. 

 

That said, I'm paid up until mid August.  I really dig PvP with my trooper.  Beat Diablo and see no real need to visit the harder levels, Diablo just wasn't my thing.  And I have no other mmo to play.  I don't expect to go back to WoW when MOP ships.  And I'm not aware of any other titles coming out that would interest me.  And like I said, I really dig PvP with my trooper.

I hear you. Having fun is what matters. I don't really care for D3 either so I know what you mean. I'm in this weird spot where I don't really want to play anything that is out. With summer here I've been less inclined to play anything really. SWTOR for me was just too little too late. Been waiting too long for it to fail like that. Too many night wiping on SOA left a bad taste in my mouth and not enough of a 'stuff' carrot. I read they lost 400K subscribers and are already shifting employees away from the game which means fail upcoming content. It's just a matter of time.

I'm paid through august too.  i'd probably continue playing after august if it weren't for the stupid sound bug they introduced with the 1.2 patch that they STILL haven't fixed.  i think i'm just going to go through the story modes of each class and call it.  i still find those interesting.  pvp with my assasin is still fun, but it takes too long for the queue to hit so i'm going to stop that.  let's see if i can finish the other class story modes before august.  i'm pretty much the only person on now.  i've seen beeman once or twice and coppersomething a couple of times.

 

after that i'm not sure.  i may try guild wars 2

I'm with T3muJin. I really like the story modes of each class. Going to play those co-op with wife and couple of friends and just be done with it.

Currently Playing: 

I also am payed up till August and get on from time to time.  Me and lala bust heads in wz when it queues but when there is only 20 at the fleet you can see that does not happen often. I have been primary focusing on finishing up my rooper.  Haven't touched my charters on the imp side in weeks.  Unless the pop picks up by Aug I will most likely cancel then.
