But the SWTOR server status page does not show the same as before either. It still shows up/down but no population data anymore. Something changed obviously. Any clue? Intended or not? New IP?

Original Server Status page: http://www.swtor.com/server-status

Our page with server widget (workrd until the patch today): http://tcf.enjin.com/


Kind regards

Good questions!

This is an intended change so that the server status page matches the in-game interface for server select which we changed a few months ago. With the previous in-game change and now the web change, we ultimately removed two columns:
  • Server population - This column was fairly misleading due to the way in which it generated its value. The value it displayed was the current population relative to the total population cap. This often created situations where servers with more players would actually show as lighter than a less populated server due to its pop relative to its hardware cap. For that reason we removed it altogether.
  • Server type - Since we made the change where a player can be in any instance type, we no longer have specified server types. We similarly removed this column so it wouldn't falsely impact a player's server choice.
If someone was using a widget to get that information from our site previously, they should just need to adjust it for the missing columns.

Hope that clears up any confusion!

This is correct. The Lady of Sorrows bonus Mission wasn't really an exploit, but we saw some concerning behavior with that Mission for bots. That is why we held the patch notes until this morning.

Thanks!

From what we can tell, any grouping issues that are occurring in CZ-198 or Iokath are service related and not an actual game issue (so you won't see a fix in the patch notes). We believe today's maintenance should have addressed it.

If you experience this again please let us know the area, and your server, and we can take a look.

Thanks everyone!

Hey all,

As Musco mentioned in the Live Stream yesterday, were busy working on an update to the Roadmap which should be available in mid-February. Keep in mind, weve just released Game Update 5.7, so expect the Roadmap to give you insight about the next 90 days or so.

Im not ready to discuss all of the summer events and beyond that were planning. And, I definitely will not provide any information on whats included in 6.0 . So, as always, hang in there, and well provide you with whats going on with SWTOR!

For the many of you who have asked privately, yes, I'm doing great, but December and January are typically very busy months for us with all the planning activities. Personally, I've been playing quite a bit, and am focused on crafting Superior Augments for my characters. Hopefully, I'll reach Elite Warlord on my 2nd character, very soon, and to be honest, I'm pretty happy with all the changes we made this past year for Galactic Command.

Will update you soon,

Keith---

Alright folks, the S9 leaderboards are back online! As best as we can verify all of our data looks to be in a good place and things should be working properly.

Please let me know in this thread if you catch any issues and we will take a look. Thanks everyone.

Did you guys break the queue? Mr Musco, can you please investigate.

While I usually love Hutt Ball, too much of a good thing soon becomes a bad thing.
That's unusual...

I will pass this on to the team for investigation. Is this something everyone is seeing? A much higher pop rate on Huttball than other gameplay types?

Thank you for the reports.
