Keith Kanneg has posted a brief note on the Star Wars: The Old Republic forum to let players know that the 2018 Roadmap is a work in progress and that it should appear sometime in mid-February which should provide a peek into the 90-days following its publication. In addition, Kanneg mentions that summer events are planned and that 6.0 is coming too.

Star Wars: The Old Republic is turning six years old with presents for players. All that is required is to get to the Republic or Imperial Fleet in order to claim the prizes. In addition, players can move to Coruscant and Dromund Kaas Strongholds for only SIX credits (instead of 5000)!

Star Wars: The Old Republic devs will be hosting a special Facebook live stream on Thursday, December 7th with author Timothy Zahn. Zahn most recently “contributed to the crafting of the latest storyline in “A Traitor Among the Chiss”. In addition, Zahn has authored nearly a dozen Star Wars novels including Star Wars: Thrawn, a Chiss warrior from the Galactic Empire.

Star Wars: The Old Republic has been updated with a new story addition called “A Traitor Among the Chiss”. Players will “embark on a daring new story-driven Flashpoint in pursuit of a rogue agent”. The action takes place on Copero where the job is to discover the traitor and his plans. Up to four players or a single player with companions can play through the Flashpoint.

Earlier this fall, BioWare wrote in its roadmap about a number of utility changes coming to all Star Wars: The Old Republic classes. In a change from earlier class balance tweaks, the team has decided to “deliver all of them to you at once”. In a new post on the SWTOR forums, Eric Musco reveals all of the changes coming to each class.

From now through November 6th, anyone with a Star Wars: The Old Republic account can try out a pair of expansions for free through November 6th. Both Rise of the Hutt Cartel and Shadow of Revan are free to try out by entering a special code on the SWTOR site to unlock them. This provides players the opportunity to raise a character from 1-60 for free.

Eric Musco has informed Star Wars: The Old Republic players that today’s launch of Update 5.4: Crisis on Umbara has been delayed by 24-hours. Apparently, a critical bug cropped up in the Crisis on Umbara Flashpoint. To give the team time to squash the nasty critter, the update has been delayed until Wednesday.
