Star Wars: The Old Republic to get a 2.0 update of 'Scum and Villainy'

They are adding a whole chapter to the story with this update. I am all in favor of this. If you go free to play buy the expansion and see this amazing role playing game continue in story. You don't have to do raids to have fun and play this games. 8 separate story-lines to play. It will take you awhile to get through them all and the voice acting is amazing. However gear grinding should never be your main focus in a game. This game isn't meant to be played for only having one character. I have played 5 of the stories all the way through and its phenomenal. Plus the story mode operations are fun too and flash points have great voice acting and mechanics. I haven't even played any of the imp side ones yet, but im looking forward to it.

Actually, SW:ToR is not as bad as many say.  Does the game need a few tweaks?  Absolutely.  Does it need to group existing players together who are spread out over a few too many servers?  Maybe.  But is it a bad game?  Heck, no.  The class stories are very strong for an MMO; MMOs often have a generic storyline that focuses on no one in particular.  The PvP is pretty good too.  It is not "WoW" perfect.  But still good.

This "news" is a few weeks old. I've been testing 2.0 for over a week. Bioware just add's more grinding and cash grabs...and less fun....with every update.

Recent changes will really change the combat of SWTOR, i think the game is really moving into a good direction. Maybe the beta is over :)

Since the failure of SWTOR may also be bad news for any future KOTOR, I hope it does well. I hope it doesn't become a raid->gear->same raid game like EA's TSW. That was my first exposure to a MMO where end game consisted mainly of the gear grind circle. So very boring. Hard imagine any game nowadays succeeding long term on that formula .

like i said Haters will hate no matter what anyone says  and no game will be good enough  because they will not be in dev for 7 to 8 years.there are still hundreds of thousands that are playing Swtor we have our own community  and we are proud to be part of it since a lot more great things are coming to swtor like the super secret space project and more. So no matter what anyone says SWTOR IS HERE TO STAY. get over it all..

whose idea was it to make the game. 

Why won't they make more playable species with bigger variety then yellow, red and blue humans with different eye colors.  

If they also had fewer planets but bigger zones they would feel more connected and you wouldn't feel so alone all the time, each planet could've been more like a continent in WoW, instead they decided to make each planet like a zone meaning you have to go through tedious loading whenever you leave it, which means most of the time.  

Rest of the game was decent, mostly the end game was boring and easy but I'm not going to go in to much detail because it has been done to death.  This game needs more then just a new raid and 2 or 3 operations in order to draw in old retired players to be honest. 

Most likely the last update this will get.  I reinstalled last week and couldn't take more than 20 min before the uninstall was initiated.

Why don't they make a new KOTOR? They are just flogging a dead horse.

Another day...Another attempt to revive this dying excuse of a game.

WOW??? Still trying to make SW: TOR work huh...

I thought the game was "eh" but the cartel market and F2P came out, it just made it look like crap. I just can't get into the game.

I think the industry and the public would be warmer to this if Bioware didnt think we all live in 1998. Does it play on my consoles? um, no. Does any of it play on an iPad? um, no. Does any of it play in my quad i7 iMac, bearing in mind elder scrolls online will and WOW does? um.....not so much?

WTF!!!!!!! HEYY thats! Not FAIR Bioware!! You took our Guild name for the new OP:)))))
HAHAHAHAH:)))) Still that is an awesome thing:)) hehe

So the only real thing they have to offer is yet more recycled Flashpoints? Yeah I'm glad I quit.

Zzzzzzz. I must have wasted about 60 hours of my life on this game, and I sat there bored throughout 80% of it (all of it except for the main stories). I only continued because my friend loves it and bugs me to play.

You know what it really needs? Less worthless fighting, and less filler side quests. You're fighting enemies every 2 steps on your way to complete utterly dull side quests. Stop expanding the game and fix what you already have, Bioware.

I'm playing this in a group with my brother...a few hours every day...

And I have a level 40 character and I still enjoy the main story line and some of the more expanded quests. So all this F2P is unplayable is pretty much bullshit. You don't need more than 2 quickslot bars to enjoy the game...at least for me it isn't necessary 

did they ever fix this game? ie add endgame?

also the PvP. and did they ever enable the proper high res textures that WERE IN THE CUNTING BETA THEN REMOVED FOR FULL RELEASE.

Me personally think all the haters need to find something else to hate about. this game is doing very well and a lot of people still play it. f2p is just right because you get the majority of the game free that's thousands of free hours of story and that's what this game does best. I sick and Tired of all  the people saying its a wow clone and all that jazz .I was in beta for wow and didn't like it think it was a cartoon y piece of crap.but my brother played and he enjoyed it so each have there own opinion. The problem is no MMo will live up to WOW because of one thing and one thing only. TIME!!! It has has so many patches and expansions that no matter what game you play it will feel un finished because of so much time WOW had to fix all its problems and add so much to the game.did you know what WOW was released it was so bad the lag no one could get on for weeks at a time because the lag was so bad.Wow is not a god ol mighty game that everyone thinks. Now back to Swtor "its a very well done game and they improve on it each patch with the f2p player can play what they want and not do anything else but can do more if they choose and buy time to run end game and if they like it they can sub its all the matter of what you see.I do think the graphics could be better but still gets across as good to most games out there look very bad.So what i think everyone should do is chill out on the swtor  because no game will live up to WOW no game will or ever will if they do it will be in dev for 8 years....

'Scum and Villainy'...sounds like EA to me.

Please implement a better free to play model and maybe more people would be positive about the game.

Compared to this POO unleashed 2 Was better .............

Maybe Free To Play but more like Pay to actually do anything. I loved this game when i subbed but its the worse F2P in existence.
