C'mon, with the last update being so bloomin good, what did you expect? lol I'll let them off this once since last week's was so satisfying.

Grrrrr! Bloody Flan Fridays! Ah well I expected as much.

Flan Friday Strikes Back!


On the plus side Jawa Avatars! hehehe
And Wookies too!

Also this looks kinda promising:

"If you can’t make the shows, don’t worry! We will have the gameplay demo footage available to the community on our official website. To stay up-to-date on The Old Republic’s conventions this summer, visit the Community Events page!"

Did you see that scuba-Jawa and what looked like a sub-zero-jawa! Skursir's going to have a meat feast with this lot!

hahaha! yeah, I'd affectionately named the sub-zero-jawa the Anorak Jawa

Still the thought of seeing the demo footage (in its entirety? that'd be cool) that everyone at E3 has already seen would be a bonus.

Yeah, I'm looking forward to seeing this solid E3 footage, not just the fragmented stuff that they crammed into that video...

I'm happy. I got me a smuggler avatar at last.

Wow I'm defianlty going to be a Nautolan if they're playable

A decent update, those Jawas look sneaky.

Aye I've got my eye on a Nautolan if they're playable too. They're basically Frogs with dreads, now how cool is that?

It was ok update, but check the interview on Ign.com some nice hint, but nothing realy good.

In case anyone missed it, today's update is the Threat of Peace...

...Next week is currently planned to be a Developer's Blog (we'll see if Arehonn is right) but I'll bring that up again next week in case plans change (sometimes they do).

SWTOR.com/General Discussion -> Friday's Update - July 31st, 2009

Just like the rest of you, I can't even be bothered to put up a descussion about this week's update.

At leat next week's update should be okay.

The updates are getting increasingly weak.

maybe close to release date

Bleh yeah he seems to be saying we get one/two decent updates a month, but updates don'r mean solid infor in fact I'd pass on demo footage if we could get some hard facts!

Sean basically said they're focusing on the events they are attending around this time, so if there is one decent update in August, it'll be a lot I think (the full gameplay vid will be it me thinks, but that should be pretty darn great).

I'm wondering if maybe they thought the hype was actually growing a bit too fast for their schedule, so they're planning the major updates further apart to keep us busy 'till release.

I'm with you on that one PJK. I'd happily let them keep their demo footage (we've seen how things will run now in the voiceover doc) in exchange for a simple list of playable races.

But I don't think we're close to release yet as Nord wonders. There are too many blank spots still to be filled in the holonet section on swtor.com for that I think. And like SF has pointed out, I too think the trickle of info being released is actually slowing down. I think either release is still a long way off, or with it being convention/expo season their reveal schedule has gone very wrong.

It was a bad joke and i think the two next major relase will be GamesCon in August and the Con in USA in September.

Hahaha good ol' Sean.

He's great saying "something" and "nothing" all at once.

He should be a politician

Please let the blog be about something other than the voicing, or it'll just be more of them patting themselves on the back saying how great they are

What no speculations today? Has the world gone mad!

My bet is on a planet this time around. It's been ages since we've had one.

I will fix on thread for gamescom thats next week and Penny arcade that is in early september.

And next week it will be a gamplay video from the gamescom.

The update was overall fairly dissapointing.

It's just making me for excited for next weeks full walkthrough of the demo!

Ah well, no point in updating it on here this week.
