Hey guys! There are more pvp changes incoming! Huttball movement, time and scoring will be different. There will also be another change to tanking stats in PVP. Let's discuss! If you've paid any attention to the Star Wars universe as a whole, you've surely noticed there is a lot of criticism of the latest movies and the company's direction. When does criticism cross the line into toxicity? There are people wanting to re-make The Last Jedi, and an Internet proclamation decrying the removal of Kat...

Hey everybody, there's a new roadmap! No announcement, no preview, we just got slapped in the face with the new roadmap. There are so many PVP things covered, we have to thank ourselves for putting the ideas into the minds of Bioware's developers. We are claiming credit for PvP inception. Let's discuss all the wonderful tidbits we can uncover in the Summer 2018 roadmap!

Let's do this! Brian has short-timer's disease as he's getting ready to head out of town. We're recording on May 1st, the first post-poned date for Game Update 5.9. But now its been postponed again! 5.9 will be available just in time for our favorite holiday. MAY THE FOURTH! In addition, players will receive some goodies and there is a new subscriber reward! There's also a new exploit! Watch out and don't put yourself on the naughty list. Springtime brings with it the desire to clean things out ...

And we're back! Its been a few weeks since we put out a podcast. Many apologies for keeping y'all hanging like that. Let's dive into what's been going on for us since then. First, we announce the winner of 500 MILLION CREDITS in our Izax giveaway contest. Our friend Sir Salisbury needs our help! Please see here and help if you can - https://www.paypal.com/pools/c/83FT81aa3e Its been a tough week for the guys. After a friend and colleague passed away, our gaming and Swtor habits have changed.

Time is running out! Have you killed Izax, the final boss in Gods from the Machine operation? If so, make sure you email those screen shots to be entered to win 500 MILLION CREDITS! We're being spoon fed incremental updates about the new conquest system. Let's beat this dead horse! In SWTOR_Central's interview with Musco and Charles, we learned that the Bioware team wants to focus on bringing PVP things to the PVPers. Chuck has a few things to say about this! This week's outro music: Duel of the...

More conquest changes! Hooray? Are they upgrades, or just updates? There's going to be another cartel market sale with the entire (almost) catalog available for direct purchase. Great idea! And subscribers are going to receive the Nico Okarr and Shae Vizla companions....again... or maybe not. Don't forget about our Izax contest. Kill the giant robot to be entered to win 500 million credits! This week's outro music: Binary Suns by Coyote Kisses...

There's a new operations boss that means there's a new contest! Kill Izax for the biggest give away we've ever done -- thanks to our sponsor preferred-til-newops ! There have been new changes to the conquest system. They are not awesome. Brian got frustrated and spouted gibberish. Literally.

Did you miss South by SWTOR?!? If so, you missed out. We'll recap some of the fun things we learned from devs when you ply them with alcohol. We saw a dev stream on Twitch this week. Charles and Musco showed us a few of the additions we can expect with game update 5.8 Conquest improvements look nice, but the question of participation remains. Will the rewards make people want to play? Izax is coming as well. From the promo shots we've seen, he looks quite impressive... and maybe he transforms in...

As we know, Bioware has a track record of delaying things. Game updates, patches, roadmaps -- these have all been delayed. So it should come as no surprise that game updates 5.8 and 5.9 are also to be delayed. We'd rather see quality instead of timeliness, but of course the haters are gonna hate hate hate. After our interview with Keith last week, there have been another round of doom and gloom posts and videos. Let's discuss and see where the goals of us players and the goals for the business c...

We travel to the Bioware mothership once again! This time we tracked down Lead Producer Keith Kanneg and force him to answer questions. The interrogation droid we used was quite effective.

Last week, Brian had to put the brakes on Chuck when he was about to dive down a worm hole regarding subscriber rewards. Now the brakes are off! Chuck will let us know what he thinks about sub rewards and educate us about something called the Liberator. Its not what you think. In the back half of the show, we look at the reddit and discuss a post from SWTOR_VEGA. What if the cartel market were a giant catalog that you could always purchase things from? We put some spins on this idea and run with...

The. Best. Roadmap. Ever! Keith has released this quarter's roadmap and there are some thing in it. But who cares? MAKO IS RETURNING! We're all aflutter with excitement to know when we can reunite with our beloved. The roadmap also contains information about future updates, including conquests, companion influence, new augments, a hint of 6.0 and more!

Chuck has returned from the high seas to bring his tales of wonder! Star Wars the Old Republic celebrates as the Return of the Gree returns! Enjoy killing players on Ilum until the next time it returns. And the time after that, and after that, and after that..zzZzzz. The 3 recurring events in Swtor come around every month, and they're starting to get a little stale. Would it be better to have them on all the time instead of monthly? What if occurred less frequently? What incentivizes players to ...

Star Wars the Old Republic has released game update 5.7. There some fun stuff in the new boss encounter! The Bridge Boss is real! There's also been another article published about the demise of Swtor at the hands of the evil corporate overlords known as Electronic Arts. The article is mostly speculation, so let's dig into it!

If you ever look around the Internet for information about Star Wars the Old Republic, two things will become apparent. A) People are passionate about the game B) No one has a clear idea of what the state of the game actually is Many folks have been saying that SWtor is in 'Maintenance Mode'. Why do they say this? What is maintenance mode? What should we do to prevent it? Is now a good time to start playing? Is it okay to come back to the game? What should new and returning players expect? Let's...

Let's start off 2018 with a bang.... or a dud... or something! This week, we take a listen back to last year's resolutions. How did we do? About as well as you'd expect. Then, we set our sights to predictions for the coming year. What will we seen in Star Wars The Old Republic? Definitely some new companions, but they won't be available to all characters. Is this a bad thing? This week's outro music: Cantina Band by Tyron Hapi...

Holy crap! Its already been a full year of bad feeling podcasts! Brian was able to bribe Bioware employees with cookies to get them to tell us a little bit about what they worked on this year. In game news, the Copero flashpoint has undergone some changes to make it quicker and more accessible. How much flashpoint is too much? How much story is too little? This is the last one for the year, so we'll see you in 2018!

Its been another exciting week in the Galaxy of Star Wars The Old Republic! Game update 5.6 brought lots of fun things including a new operations boss, a new flashpoint, CXP updates, the activity finder and more! Also included in this update: Another credit generating exploit. This is bad news for those of us that like the use the GTN to buy and sell goods. Are the exploiters going too far or is this part of a greater conspiracy? This week's Outro Music: Imperial March Tujamo by NashtyD...

Its Friday and there has been a lot of news this week! Most of it doesn't concern Star Wars The Old Republic, however, there has been an update on the new PVP that should be coming with Game Update 5.6. Its not coming with Game Update 5.6. The new map has been delayed until December. We'd rather it be delayed and done correctly than on time and ruined. If you've seen the Internet in the past week, you may have noticed quite a few posts about EA's launch of Star Wars Battlefront 2. The pay-to-win...

The servers have merged! There were some ups, some downs, some more ups and now the forces have united! Are you one of the folks that demanded compensation? Maybe you're one of the players that wants classic Swtor servers? Blizzard has announced that World of Warcraft will be adding 'Classic' servers. Would this be a good fit for Swtor? How far does nostalgia carry you when you have to pay for training abilities, have no speeder, and quick travel has a 30 minute cooldown? This week's outro music...

Companions! Where have they gone? When will they be back? We miss our cherished lovers and are eagerly awaiting their return! In the live stream last month, Bioware gave us a long list of companions whose returns are "in the works". What does this mean? There are several different ways to get a companion back. Let's discuss some dos and don'ts for companion reunions. As you know, the SWTOR servers are merging soon! This will be great, but it may leave you lost in a sea of nameless strangers. Whe...

Server merges are approaching! The Forces begin to Unite! Unless you happen to play on the West Coast. SWTOR has closed the west coast data center and relocated those servers. Now all server are on the East Coast and this is causing some heartache and lag for APAC and West Coast players. We're hoping this can get resolved soon! Did you miss the Bad Feeling Two-vette last week? We'll recap a couple of the highlights just for you! Cheers! This week's outro music: Lapti Nek Disco Mix...

Its almost Buvette time again! We're super excited to sit down with the Bioware guys again. Before we get there, let's discuss a couple of things that have been happening around the Star Wars video game landscape. Electronic Arts announced the closing of Visceral studios - the home of an upcoming Star Wars title. Why would they do this? What does this mean for the Star Wars gaming landscape in general? You may have noticed, but its October. Everywhere around us we see colors of fall and the sigh...

We learned a few things from the Cantina event that Bioware hosted during New York Comic Con. PVP details and Ops passes may be returning. This is all good stuff. However, there was a miss on the patch notes regarding the Legacy CXP boost. Rage. Were we deceived, or is there a bigger issue at hand? Brian tries to decorate. More Rage! What the heck is with the lack of availability of decorations? This week's outro music Duel of the Fates by Lervish...

We cover ranked PVP, NiM Gods from the Machine operation, Train sounds, and Game of Thrones! This week's Outro Music: Lapti Nek - Ladycreme Mix...
