Game is being re-released on Xbox One
Any chance to just import that ♥♥♥♥ here so we could play without moding so much things to even start it up?

I hope so. I hope they'll update it; I don't see a reason why they shouldn't. Windows "is" made by Microsoft and they'd be idiots not to port it here, let alone allow the game to be updated.

I just recently returned to swtor & am happy with the progress. Everyone joining for the first time is in for a real treat! The game is very extensive & story driven, perfect for any rpg fans.

Here is also codes you can redeem for more goodies! (dont type the stuff in parenthesis):

SWCELEBRATION17 (free droid)
SWCANTINA17 (mount)
NYCANTINA17 (mount)
NYCANTINA16 (mount)
REVANRETURNS (Shadow of Revan Expansion)
KOTORSPEEDER (mount)

I used them all recently & can confirm they all work. My friend also used the following but it didnt work for me:

SWCELEBRATION16


My big hope with the xbox release is that it will have cross-platform servers. Bringing together players from multiple platforms is ideal & should be praticed more ofton in the gaming industry.

Star Wars The Old Republic (SWTOR) =/= Star Wars Knights of The Old Republic (SWKotOR)

:P

I can't seem to find a way to like SWTOR, it doesn't really immerse the player into the storyline... I don't know, I always quickly lose interest once I start playing...

this shameless advertisement used by mikfail is against the content rules on steam. in the same way you can't do the same on swtor forums either.

So a few years ago you saw SWTOR as a good game?
What happened to the game that made you change your opinion?
I'm asking because the game didn't really interest me, it felt boring after playing for a while.
Heck, I've never finished my characters storyline... :/

FE came which shoe horned you into a jk/sw storyline that made no sense for non force users, ET continued it, Iokath and then Umbara with Theron. That is most recently what got me.

A year ago the dreaded GC came in and that was the major point that i pulled up all my stakes. RemoveRNG.

Even before this, SWTOR didn't look like it was going in the right direction, i was already concerned before 5.0 hit. At the time i was becoming bored with the same content.

I am not going to read all of these comments that were said before me to tell you this needs or should happen for gamers such as me or I witchever is the proper grammar that has windows 8 but I agree with you FirebirdPhoenix87 if they're going to release this game for xbox one then why the hell and back can't they update it for windows users so the game can work like it should without any bugs glitches etc. in it because I don't know about you all but I love this particular Kotor Star Wars game and would like to see it run smoothly on operating systems higher than windows 7 home premium whether it be on Steam or by actual CD you put into your harddrive to play.

I pre ordered swtor collector's edition. I was there for launch and early access. I was level 50 before launch day. After reaching level 50 on my bounty hunter and completing his story I just lost all interest in the game. I enjoyed leveling because it was like old wow it was hard. Pull too much you die, there was no LFG tool you had to actually group with people from your server to dungeons. Also I loved the heroic quest content you could do with 2-4 people. They encouraged grouping.

The end game experience just killed it for me. They had boring dailies, dead world pvp areas because practically nobody wanted to play Republic. Empire was too heavily populated on every server. They launched the game with too many servers so when they started to die there was over a dozen dead servers they waited too long to merge servers. There should of been less servers to begin with but they anticipated such success and wanted to deal with the heavy load of the launch and following weeks of Hype.

The one area they succeeded was the 1-50 class story and making the player feel important and epic right out the gate. Wow doesnt do that. Many mmos your just nothing until your max level with insane gear and it never felt like that to me playing swtor.

The pvp was boring and unbalanced, the end game dungeons and raids were less fun than the PVE in wow so I started saying If i want to do this same old boring kind of grindy stuff Ill just go back to wow where I have already invested so much time.

Improvements were made to swtor too little too late and F2p did save the game from total extinction but a mere shadow of the former development team remains to create new content for it. Im willing to bet in less than 10 years it will be shuttered by EA in favor of a newer star wars online game that has to do with the new era ushered in by the Disney Movies.

In a nutshell nobody really asked for Kotor the MMO and that's what we got and it was a wow clone seeking to cash in on Blizzard's success. It came too late when Wow had already secured its dominance in the market. I firmly believe that if Swtor had released 3-4 years earlier than it did it would of strongly competed with Wow and lord of the rings online. The graphics werent good in swtor from day 1. The engine they used is just horrible it has bad performance and is just far too cartoony.

If I want the old hum drum MMO experience I continue to return to wow I didnt want it in my Star wars.

Sorry, only trying to help others. As mentioned, I recently returned to swtor, so im a bit excited still :) You're absolutely correct no shame here. Also, I thought this thread itself was an advertisement for the swtor xbox release.

I looked on the swtor forums, it looks like everyone has a "shameless advertisement" as their sig (which shows up in every one of their posts), I actually never bothered to post there before but may try, thanks for the heads up to investigate this.

Its obvious you moved on from swtor & are unhappy, but really, consider people who havent played it before &/or people returning for newer content they havent played...perhaps I may feel as you do now sometime later(though i doubt this because i tend to be more appreciative of everything as a whole), but for now im having a blast like you did once.

I suppose everything might be a matter of taste, though I may agree with you on kotor in some ways. In terms of scale I learn towards swtor.

I dont have a problem with the story. The immersion there for me is not just the plots but also the sights & sounds. Try a another side &/or class storyline, most are interesting & tend to appeal in different ways;.

SWTOR. Fun singleplayer RPG. ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ MMO.

In regards to KOTOR on XB1 I think im gonna give it a go this weekend. I was meaning to give the game another playthrough here on steam as its been a while, but I think will be cool to couch it this time. It's been so long since Iv'e played that game on a controller...

I'm downloading it on my XB1 right now... I really don't want to mod the PC version just to fix the crappy resolution among other flaws. The only problem is the XB1 version doesn't come with the DLC.

Yavin Station was DLC available on XBOX Live back in the day. It was included in the PC version at launch or as part of one of the official patches. I don't remember. Needless to say, the only way you'd have it available on console today is if you still had it stored on your original XBOX's hard drive or if Microsoft/Bioware had bothered to back it up. (lol nope.) Nobody thought about preservation back then.

you can get it on the 360 version

I didn't think there was a 360 version. Thought it was just backward compatible. Is XBOX Live still supported on 360?
