Smuggler class gets a developer blog…

Saturday, August 8th, 2009

The old republic team have released a new blog on the Smuggler class which gives us an insight to the ethos behind the class that always shoots first; three times.

If – like me – you play through an RPG and want to always pick the funniest lines in any dialogue choice, look no further!  Bioware have categorically stated that you will always have the funniest dialog choices to show off your bravado and Han Solo-esque flair!  Not only funny dialog, but you will apparrently have the moves to go with it!

Check out the full story here.

Old Republic Public Gameplay Demo coming soon

Monday, August 3rd, 2009

A few days ago I picked up on a post from Sean, one of the Community Managers at Bioware who mentioned they were going to showcase a playable demo to the crowds of Penny Arcade Expo and GamesCom.

TOR at GamesCom and Penny Arcade Expo
Star Wars: The Old Republic will be will be bringing the power of the Force to two more conventions this year, GamesCom (Cologne, Germany; August 19-24 ) and Penny Arcade Expo (PAX) (Seattle, Washington; September 4 – 6). During the conventions, the team we will be showcasing the first public gameplay demo

This could just be what we have seen already from the past gameplay post in playable or demo viewing form at the conventions, which would be slightly disappointing, however the same footage with a developer commentary behind it would explain and expand on a view features we saw tucked away into the preview.

As always, we will be awaiting the conventions and reporting all the news we hear and see back to you.
