Expansion

[Guinnlegacy]

Has anyone heard when the expansion comes out that increases the level cap? I wonder if it will be like Warcraft were we will be replacing hard earned gear with level 51 greens. I just don't wanna waste alot of time and credits on gear that will be replaced so easy.

What expansion? I heard they are writing out storylines for a "MAYBE" expansion...But with everyone leaving...I dont see it on the horizon

Well, my server still Heavy in pick time...dont know about others servers, but seems they still fine.

According to what I heard the new level cap won't mean new gear. That's what I heard at E3

Staff-wise...Not player base

Ok, nvm.

I do not believe we will see a level cap increase for a while. Have to see how F2P goes.

I do believe sometime in august they promised a lvl cap bump to 55 before the end of the year. However they never said it would come as an expansion.

There was some talk about that. Was it before or after the F2P announcement?

I doubt they would abstain from putting in any new gear. However, it's likely (since it sounded like it would only be a couple of levels at a time) the mission gear won't outshine current end game gear.

On podcasts I've heard that the level boost would most likely be next summer to late spring. I believe we have 2 more patches this year.

The level cap increase was announced at the same time as new space missions and new planet. I would assume that the level cap increase will be tied to the launch of the new planet. Not sure if that was before or after the f2p announcement.

I think it was back in June I heard them announce a new planet called Makeb and they were gonna increase the level cap to 55. So you guys think all the new gear will just be customisable gear. Where we just plug in existing mods and enhancements. I'm on the Jedi Covenant server and it is far from dead. Fleet usually stays around 200. Low level planets populations are around 110. High level planets usually around 40 to 60. Either alot of new people or people making alot of alt chars on those low level planets.

i'm running into a lot of new players on The Harbinger. As far as an expansion, a month, or so, ago they announced it would be early to mid next year. They said level cap raised, The pussy's, and HK-51 will be features, as well as Makeb. Who knows, things change quickly.

He means this one: SWTOR E3 Expo 2012 Presentation: New Content Revealed - OldRepublic.NET

I have a feeling it won't be until after free to play is launched so they can make them available to the subscription payers only.
