Star Wars: The Old Republic: Quality of Life Improvements Coming

bounty-hunter-003

Star Wars: The Old Republic has been awash in change lately.  This week, Tuesday to be precise, server consolidation happened.  Low population servers were merged with high population servers.  The list of consolidated servers can be found here, and all characters will be moved to the new server.  If you have more than 8 characters involved in the move, don’t panic.  The maximum character limit per server has been increased to twelve and in case the consolidation involved more than 12 characters all of them will be on the same server.  You will, however, not be able to create new characters over and above 12 characters per server.

Patch 1.4 will see even more quality of life improvements to the game:

  • Group Finder will now teleport you back to the point you zoned out of when you zoned to the operation.
  • 2 hour limits are being implemented to bind on pick-up and bind-on legacy gear.
  • Facial mood expressions are coming!
  • Companion character customization – finally remove their helmets and color unification!

So time to dive back into SWTOR with full servers and improved game play options.  Also coming this Fall: a new operation, a new warzone, a new companion, and free to play.
