The companions are like tortoises; they can't seem to keep up. I was worried about glitches; them getting stuck somewhere.
I'm in chapter 5 or 6 at the moment. Looks like a marathon run through the whole lot. Interesting and enjoyable so far.

Oh they can flat out eat a dick.
The PVP lightsabers I got on two characters, the ones that cost 900 comms which came out to about four warzones on one and two on the other (with a transfer)? Now require valor 42. What it means practically is my lightsaber now does precisely zero damage.
Fuck them, I'm done.

WTF happened to the run animation for females??!!!!!! Now my toon is wagging her bottom! She was running normally in chapter 6, now all of a sudden, she's running small steps with wagging hips. I want the normal run back! P.S. oh god, I HATE the run animation. Now instead of reaching a target in 5 secs, I take 15 secs because of her mincing tiny running steps.

Did the marathon and finished. They wrapped up the Zakuul story and I wasn't surprised how certain factors were played out. Valkorion wanted to take over the Outlander's body. No surprise there. I was expecting it.
I had a terrible time fighting Vaylin's spirit. Died like three times. In the end, I did the long run. It took like maybe 30 mins? I struck all the massive dmg and threw debuffs on her while the healing buffs were ongoing for me and then had her chased me around the steps, taking care to avoid the red circle when she went into the knockback stage. Rinse and repeat.
Light side choice at the end. No surprise the Rep and Sith went back to square one. How can they trust the Outlander with the Eternal Fleet under her control? *shrug*
So what's next? I guess Bioware will think of something that kick the fleet to pieces or whatever.
Not sure if there were romantic dialogues. I'm guessing maybe not? My first sith warrior did not romance any of the new companions. Oh yeah. Torian died. Between him and Vette, the twilek won.
And oh yes. I punched Suresh too. Who can resist? Frames dropped quite a bit in the latter cutscenes. I also find responses to key punching a bit slow and I wasn't lagging btw so I got a bit fedup with some of the walker fights. I also bypass fights whenever I could; a waste of time imo. P.S. I found out why my toon is running so weirdly; sprint was turned off. I didn't turn it off so I'm not sure what happened to change it.

Finally got my game updated and to my pleasant surprise Bioware server is more accommodating, I get steady 3 bar now. Before anyone could say anything, latency is related to my location and the server. EA's Redwood City server is across the pacific from me and I get average 200-300ms and bad lags depending on its mood. Activated all 26 slots and testing some of the heroics with my 30+ toons. Somehow it became pointless and time consuming to do heroics with lowbies toon, I probably do more pvp with them. Will do flashpoints to level the rest of my 65s toon once I have Eternal Throne. Spent running around on Darvanis leveling Slicing and Scavenging to 600 while listening to Sherrilyn Kenyon's Styxx. Daemion You can go there with your ship, its in hutt space. Less competition and less traffic too. No slicing bots. Mix grade 9 and 10 nodes. Got a good a million and half or so. I find its funny that trash 25k mounts from Alliance Crate became 2.5 million mount and one of the pvp deco in my storage need valor 48. O_O Trashed all my 204 pvp armor, kept the 208 weapons. So sad that it also took away all gear bonus away. everyone crying about legendary gifts being 250k each... and I sell 200k each for the entire year with no problems. And frankly I'm starting to get annoyed with LS winning on Harbinger (oh you paragon wussies) but I saw that there's nothing worth noting at the DvL vendor, except for a cute orochick. Also saw a couple of people with Arcann companion. can't wait

Being a F2P player, this update does not affect me other than missing the double xp. I was working on bringing my 6 characters to level 50 now it is so much slower. I was planning to sub for one month after I got them to level 50 and have access to level 65. Now it is going to take a while.

Light Side wins all the time. ^^
I'm done looking through all my chars, I'm crafting like crazy on 6 chars in parallel and the changes are ... mild. I miss the flamethrower animation on my Pyrotech but Searing Wave fits better into the rotation.

Also wondering about romance dialogue, I guess I'll find out when I start playing her. That choice between the 2 just pissed me off. Hello Virmire.
The fight with Vaylin's spirit took forever, just because it seemed like she took no damage, and then you spend a ton of time running around avoiding her crazy. I had trouble with what seemed like lag in the later chapters too, was driving me nuts. Maybe they did that on purpose as an artificial time sink like so much else.

Does anyone know if they tinkered with the way our characters look? I'm playing one of my slingers and she has lines in her face whenever she makes an expression that I'd swear weren't there before. They make her look older. Her forehead wrinkles like crazy whenever she does the 'frowny' face now. Don't remember seeing a difference on my Jugg though.

From the patchnotes: Added new engine technology to improve fidelity of facial expressions in conversations and cinematics for all characters across the entire game. This graphical improvement is visible on High Shader setting.

At least her resting face is still pretty. Thanks for finding that. I didn't bother reading the patchnotes. Too many things changed.

The only bug they fixed was an exploit where you were awarded completion for planetary quests by just clicking on the button. Not the actual game-breaking one, where you can't complete the Ch 16 Arcann fight to progress your character to KOTET (unless you do the chapter on Veteran, for some reason). Ouch there's a bug with the Arcann fight? I was thinking of moving the JK into that, last mission of KotFE she has to do. hmmm On anther note, Bioware need to tidy up the LI stuff. There're flirting choices with Arcina but I find it pointless. What and where would it lead to? Nowhere. Just like the other LIs. Face changes on Senya and Lana is obvious but I didn't see it on my sith warrior; she looked as usual. Could be the tattoos though.

I doubt it'll be any different with the trooper. Maybe just a slight variation on the choices taken. Of course the fights with force users make it even more unbelievable.

Yeah the very last part where he is up on the stairs, you can't move. At all. So you just stand there while he blasts you dead. After it happened I went to the forums and sure enough, 4+ threads of multiple people reporting the same bug. One post from BioWare of "We're looking into it". So I guess now it's just a waiting game. Hopefully they will fix it Friday. I just want my trooper to be able to flirt with her hubby. I am sure there are Theron flirt moments in there for my slinger (when I actually make it there), so I am not as worried about that one.

I'm not liking the stupid CXP system. I'm just going to bring up the JK, play a bit with the second female warrior and the male warrior who still has to finish his class story and then stop playing swtor. Likely to stop subbing too after March next year, that's when I have to renew, unless they change the silly thing.
I'm not even motivated to do heroics any more. Other than crates for the factions, I don't get s*** for it. I don't get to exchange anything for slightly better gear. CXP crates? Get lost Bioware, it's all crap. Bring back the old system that supports legacy exchanges and alts.
Going back to crafting to get something good at least.
