I recieved this info from The Smed himself as me and him are BEST FRIENDS!
Publish 27.5 Update notes
Headlines
- Faster Combat and Travel
- Trader Revamp
- New Jedi Ability
- Easier To understand content
Publish Gift
All players will receive the "ultimate wepon" (Wepon spec 100000000 dmg) for the publish as a gift as well as a chuck norris doll
Faster Gameplay
To our beloved NGE players, we have decided to remove any element of the game that is a potential timewaster.
- Tatooine will be shrunk to 1/10 of its present size so there's no need to travel long distance just to complete your legacy quest
- Corelia, Naboo, Dantooine, Talus, Yavin4 will be removed to prevent any confusion on which planet to travel to.
- Planetary travel: With the new enhanced teleportation ability, just open your planetary map and click on any point in the map to get there instantly.
- All Cloning centers will be made redundant. Yes if a player dies in-game now, he will get a 1 sec cooldown and will clone at the exact spot where he died. This is done to prevent any unnecessary travelling and reduces the hassle of opening the planetary map to teleport.
- Experience system will be revamped. Players will receive a level-up for every mob they kill and experience points will be removed from the game. It certainly is not star warsy to have experience points in game.
Loot
- All creatures will drop every possible loot in-game. Don't have the time to travel to Mustafar or Kashyyk? You don't have to when you can get everything from a womp rat.
Profession: Jedi
- All Jedi will receive get a new ability "Force Win". When triggered, all enemies within 64m of the Jedi dies. Note: This ability only works on Non-Jedi characters/NPC.
Profession: Trader
- All traders will be removed from the game. You guys are not star warsy nor iconic and face it, crafting is next to useless now anyway.
- All traders will be removed from the game. Trader characters will get 1 addtional charge to their Profession Respec Kit and an additional melon.
Species
- Only Zabraks and Humans will be selectable for new characters creation. Players who are not either of these species will be the last of their kind. All other species will remain only as NPC characters. This is done to ensure no one gets confused at what species to choose during character creation.
Veteran Rewards
- All current veteran rewards will be reworked.
- 3 months: A Dev will visit you ingame and give you a /patontheback
- 6 months: Another chuck norris doll
- 9 months: 10 Free Respecs
- 12 months and beyond: A jedi character slot... oh wait... how about a cookie instead
- These items from the veteran rewards will be No-trade to prevent any potential exploits.
Server Stabilty
- Increased server stability
Have fun! May The Force be with you!
Yup John said that the publish will be out soon... He said it will be out about the time that the producers letter comes out
*Keep you friends close and your enemies closer
DIE SMEDLY DIE!
