Any of you lot planning on giving GW2 a spin?

F2P after the initial box cost seems cool, and going by my last beta weekend experience, it has a lot of potential (though a couple of things I didn't like).

Still umming and arring over whether to get it or not.

Anyone been watching this? Season 2 has just started, and it's a pretty cool post apoc alien invasion series.

I'm enjoying it so far.

Important Information / SWTOR Server Transfers
« on: June 07, 2012, 10:06:02 AM »
Hi Folks,

I'm cross posting this from The Farstar Alliance forums. Just an FYI for any of you HoJers who still want to play SWTOR to start the transfer process, or be stuck on a dead server!

Tuesday 12th June is the date Bioware have given for Server Transfers to begin. With the proposed system, our server, Frostclaw, will become an Origin server, or a Destination server. If it's an Origin server, we will be given the option to transfer to a predetermined Destination server. We don't get to choose which Destination server we go to, and there will only be one Destination server chosen, so we should all stay together.

Obviously, I think most of us are in agreement that server population has nose-dived, and that we do need to transfer.

As far as the guild is concerned, we will need to recreate the guild on our Destination server should we need to move. Bioware have stated that guilds with Guild banks will be granted them again for free once they recreate the guild.

My main concern at this point is making sure all guild members who want to transfer get the message and are given opportunity to do so. Unfortunetly, many of you guys have moved on to other games, or decreased your play time (understandable, given some of the recent changes and population issues). However, if you do want to continue playing SWTOR at some point, I do urge you to monitor the Server Transfer news and Destination servers when that info is released.

Also, if you play along with other members of the guild who don't currently play SWTOR, please pass this information on. I honestly believe that a busy, active server would breath new life into this game for a good many of us.

I'll keep updating this thread with Server Transfer news as and when it happens.

Cheers,

Kurtt

Star Wars: The Old Republic / Ranked WZ and LFG Tool Coming in 1.3
« on: May 26, 2012, 09:15:17 AM »
http://www.swtor.com/blog/community-qa-may-25th-2012-%E2%80%93-special-edition-game-update-1.3

Some interesting stuff in there, posting in an effort to tempt you guys back into joining me in a galaxy far, far away.

Also, prospective server transfers to form 'super-server' with loads of people on. If they can pull it off, it will be good.

In addition, for those instanced PvP haters amongst us, The Farstar Alliance are organising an open world PvP battle against Twisted Dawn in Outlaw's Den on Tatooine, if you fancy a bit of PvP action.

Star Wars: The Old Republic / Merged Guild Name
« on: March 14, 2012, 04:14:30 PM »
Post your suggestions for the new merged guilds name in here. Mine are:

Antarian Rangers
Farstar
The Farstar Alliance

Farstar was mentioned in TJA last night, and everyone seemed to think it would be an awesome name, as quite a few of us played on that server in SWG.

Star Wars: The Old Republic / The Guild Merger Thread
« on: March 12, 2012, 12:45:39 PM »
Ok.

Lots of talk going on about the future of HoJ, and whether its worth jumping ship to another big guild. I understand this.

However, I'm wondering whether it might be a good idea to merge with a couple of smaller guilds to create a new, bigger guild.

I've been talking to a couple of guys from The Last Alliance (who we allied with in pre-launch), and they've expressed interest in a guild merger with them and Circle of Trust. I've not spoken to either guild leadership about this, just everyday members.

So, if this was feasible, how would you, the guild, feel about creating a new guild with TLA and CoT called, wait for it, Antarian Rangers?

Star Wars: The Old Republic / White and Purple Crystals Added in 1.1.5
« on: March 02, 2012, 10:17:59 AM »
Might be old new for some, but a new vendor is being added in 1.1.5 (next mini patch) which adds new crystals to the game. Seems like this is a band aid fix until they revamp Artifice in 1.2.

Shamelessly ripped off from PTS forums:

Quote
About the vendor: This vendor showed up in the updated patch notes for patch 1.1.5. It was stated that this vendor would be on the Imperial and Republic Fleets until Game Update 1.2, when they will be bringing about a major overhaul for most, if not all, crew skills.

Note: All +31 stat crystals require player level 47. All +41 stat crystals require player level 50. All crystals except the Cyan and Purple crystals are BoP. All crystals are listed without any requirements to use except player level.

Ok folks, it's time to put our money where our mouth is and give SWTOR raiding a go. As such, I'm planning on leading an Ops run this coming Sunday night at 19:30 GMT to The Eternity Vault.

If your 50, and reasonably geared (more blues/customs than greens), then please express your interest for the run here. We will need the following for an 8 man Ops group:

Tank (Melee) - Kurtt
Tank (Ranged) - Mangala
Healer (Sage) - Temon
Healer - Thela
DPS (Melee) - Yyan
DPS (Ranged) - Caradir
DPS (Ranged) - Twinkletoes
DPS (Ranged) - Clostridium

The above is the ideal group make up for an 8 man Ops group. Obviously we may get far from ideal, so don't let the above put you off.

If your interested, and want to come along, sigh up by way of reply.

Cheers,

Kurtt

Star Wars: The Old Republic / 1.2 Changes
« on: February 23, 2012, 04:32:22 PM »
Shamelessly stolen from Reddit:

Quote
There's a ton of stuff coming in 1.2 (coming in March), it seems like they were forced to release before finished by EA and 1.2 is what the finished product would have been. That being said I'm trying to compile a list of changes that have been confirmed for 1.2 by Devs.

This is what I have so far:

New Gear sets
Match to Chest
Legacy System
Guild Banks
Broader UI Customization
Remove bag/quest reward system.
Direct purchase of Gear/Commendations.
14 new objective-based medals in WZ.
Vote to kick Idlers.
Pre-Season rankings.
New "Neutral" Warzone
New Graphics Options
New Flash Point "The Lost Island (Kaon pt. 2)"
New Planet "Denova"
New Operation on "Denova"
More Crafting BOE Items
Removable Armor/Barrels from epic Items
More social gear
Target of Target function
More Balancing Changes

Edit: To clarify this is stuff that the dev's have confirmed to be in 1.2. There is a lot of other stuff they've labeled as "Coming soon" which is only speculated to be in 1.2, like Dual Spec.
Edit 2 (Sources): 2/10/12 Q&A 2/17/12 Q&A Bioware Interview on 'Rise of the Rakghouls'
A few other Dev posts linked by '_Los' in the comments
Also I had found an article on Darth Hater that had some Dev post links, that I can't seem to find again.
