One important point though. please can you try to make the Acute Module NOT require an active subscription? (it did last time). That is, make it available to F2P and Pref players? Throw them a bone why don't you?

Also, a supplementary request. Please give us a slider or checkbox that allows us to reduce our normal Xp gain by eg 25% / 50% / 75% or similar.

All the best.
Ah! I knew I was forgetting something. We also removed the subscription requirement from the item.

Ok so I can confirm that in 5.1.2 on 2/28 we will be reintroducing the vendor which sells the White Acute Module. It will work slightly different than last time in that instead of only suppressing bonus story XP, it will suppress all XP earned up to 2.5x (to cancel out the event bonus). Also, we are working to "bake it into the event" so that in the future anytime we run a bonus to XP, the vendor and module will be available as an option for those who don't want the bonus XP.

Thanks everyone.

My goal is to get you an answer today if possible. Just to set an expectation though, if we make this change it will require a patch. That means the next opportunity to make the fix would likely be 5.1.2 at the end of the month.

I am hoping to have a definitive answer today, I will let you know!

I made that joke to Tait when he made the post, straight to off-topic .

It is impossible to replace our Taiters!

As Tait mentioned, his responsibilities are only in part on the Community team so it isn't quite as simple as just hiring a new person for that role. In the short term, his Community team functions such as patch notes and maintenance messaging will go to me. Looking forward we will look at how to handle those responsibilities. Whether that means hiring someone new or shifting it to someone internally, we'll see.

PS - Be afraid, maintenance times will never be correct ever again. Timezones are my weakness.

And am I the only one who finds it sad that a Development Director's first and only post on this forum is to make a "Can I have your stuff" joke?

I also may have been here as Server Droid in the past, but shhh! If you ever watch live streams and they throw a question back to the team as they're not sure - I'll normally have Tait or Keith post in chat for me. So I am around, just not in name.

I decided to break character for Tait, cause he deserves the love

#9 Closed PTS Applications

Hey folks!

One of the things I have heard reports of is that only some members of a group being invited, this can happen for a couple of reasons:
  • The account information provided had an error (typo, missing characters, etc)
  • A user did not qualify based on the existing criteria (current sub with no ToS violations in the last 12 months)
  • Some other issue happened in transit (random issue when granting access, etc)
If part of your team got in, but not everyone, please follow the original instructions and send their information to swtorsubmissions@swtor.com. We will be continuing to pull accounts from that email address for entry and so they can be invited into a future wave.

I know this can be disruptive to not have a full Op team on and we do our best to ensure all members are invited at once. Still, sometimes stragglers can be missed. Resubmit the information for the remaining members.

Thanks everyone.

Hey folks!

I apologize for the delay in response. I was waiting to respond when I had something definitive to share but I don't have that quite yet. Still, I wanted you to know that we have seen your feedback about turning off the XP bonus. We are talking about it and seeing if this is something we can address during the event or not. I will let you know once I know more.

#3 Update to the 250% CXP Event.

GSF 2x bonuses have been done before, they're usually pretty rare though.

We looked into your report and you're correct that GSF is currently awarding 2x Requisition. We will turn up the dial in 5.1.2 to bring it in line with character experience at 2.5x.

Thanks!

Hey folks,

A wave of PTS invites have gone out! If you have been accepted onto PTS you will see an NDA pop-up when you visit your account page on swtor.com. Signing that NDA will then send you an email with further instructions. If you didn't get in this time, fret not, we will be doing additional waves in the future.

Standard reminder that PTS is under NDA. If you have been accepted, please keep that in mind.

On a serious note (No, really!) Best of luck! You'll be missed around here for sure, jokes about potatoes are all going to be left to Musco now...
