Looking forward to this.

1.7 in a nutshell - PQ'S, CASH SHOP, REP GRINDS...OH MY!

EA is going to ask the wizard of OZ for a heart...

EA is also going to ask him for courage to innovate and not copy.

The Swtor playerbase is gonna ask for a brain. This needs to explanation.

I think this is great. The game seems to be slowly heading in the right direction.

This will encourage more open world pvp as well.

It sounds pretty good really , just hope you don't get flgged for PVP within that area on Ilum though. I will be still happy for PVP'ers though if that's the case. So it's an ongoing event and from the one screen shot it seems it will have at least 4 sections to gain "reputation" from. Might be a little grindy but at least it's something for poor ilum. I like the sound of the mobile imperial fleet too. It will give people something else to do before the cap goes up in a few months. That "Tron" looking armor seems pretty decent too.

Cheers,

BadOrb.

A little bit more info. but It might just be worded differently , here it is -

Game Update 1.7: Return of the Gree is coming soon to The Old Republic™, allowing players to experience brand new in-game content, including a limited time event and an exciting new way to progress your character.

• Explore the Planet Ilum to unveil a new Event, Relics of the Gree! A mysterious ancient Gree starship called “the Gray Secant” has appeared over Ilum’s Western Ice Shelf. Those who are brave enough will get the chance to help the Gree and face off against a powerful foe waiting in the heart of the Gree vessel. Republic and Imperial forces that finish this mission will earn exclusive Gree technology, including highly advanced weapon and armor appearances!
• Advance your character with the new Galactic Reputation system! The Galactic Reputation system lets you earn Reputation points by completing missions for factions such as the Gree or the Voss, or for military divisions within the Republic and the Empire. This new system advances characters through six ranks of increasing prestige: “Outsider”, "Newcomer", "Friend", "Hero", "Champion", and "Legend". Galactic Reputation is also tied to a character’s Legacy, so Reputation points and ranks are shared across all the characters within the same Legacy!

Visit the Game Updates Page for additional information and screenshots of the content coming to Game Update 1.7. As always, you can stay connected with Star Wars: The Old Republic through Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube.

Taken from the official site and has nothing to do with this site or myself.

Cheers,

BadOrb.

Nice, Really excited for Expac coming, excited about this. I got too much to do in this game hehe. I'm all about more story and deeper character development.

No kidding. I still got five other characters to level in this game for their class stories .I just figured out what role my three 50 level guys will be doing and still haven't finished all the end game stuff for them. Plus there is guild events to do every week. So much to do and so little time. :)

Ick.

You can buy a cartel shop reputation bonus boost.

Note upper right corner.

Yeah no kidding. I"ve only played 3 of the stories to 50, Trooper, Consular and Sith Warrior. I just finished my Consular/Shadow yesterday. Next will either be a Jedi Knight or Bounty Hunter, probably Bounty Hunter since I just went through questing on the Republic side. I know many people didnt like the Consular, and it was a litle dull, but the end was good so it made up for it.

But yeah, so much to do.

In reply to ability to buy reputation with cartel coins. I don't think anybody in right mind will do something like that. I much prefer to gain reputation by questing and spend my CC on cartel boxes /grin

I am very excited about 1.7. I love Ilum. The night sky in Ilum is the best I've ever seen in any game :)

Which f2p games does not sell rep bonus I swear some of these posters will complain about anything that has to do with swtor...think it's time to move on.

What does FTP have to do with anything? The game is Freemium. Endgame Reputation grind is aimed at the subscribers.

On top of your monthly subscription fee, Bioware is hoping people will buy real cash boosts to what I imagine is a tedious reputation grind a la WoW.

The reputation grind's reward is high end gear.  The game is drifting closer to Pay To Win.

I don't like it, Seven seems ambivalent, you seem beligerent about it.

*edit: highlighted spelling error.

Kudos on your spelling skillz.

Out of curiosity, how do you know I don't play the game?

On second thought, I don't really care about that, I'm more curious as how you don't see this as buying a competative advantage.

*Sorry if there are any spelling errors beforehand.

(*edit, caught one missed 1.5)
