HoloNet Links #64

Server consolidations happened this week. So, if you haven’t logged on since Tuesday, you might just find yourself on a new server or have some of your “forgotten” characters on other servers added to your character select screen. Okay, the good news, there are more people on each of the new “mega” servers and that is great for grouping and having Warzones pop faster. We also got a free chance to change our Legacy name. This is because Legacy names are no longer unique to just one player per server. Now along the lines of naming, there was some bad news. Some of us had to make name changes to existing characters. Oh, there was one other issue, UIs were reset. Why? Thank goodness I saved my UI settings. All and all, despite name changes and UI reset, the server consolidations seemed to go fairly smooth.

Just as everyone was getting use to the other gifts from yesterday, even for those without a level 50, like me, there were issues with servers being down. Bioware got those back on and not long after there was an announcement Dr Greg Zeschuk. He explained how they heard the community about yesterday’s gifts, especially the 30 days free game time, for those with at least one level 50. Now they have made it so there are more that can have 30 days free of game time, even without having a level 50!

More about the details on who gets 30 free days after the Jump…

Launch day finds Drs. Ray Muzyka and Greg Zeschuk in the Big Apple.   First we find them ringing the opening bell at the NASDAQ along with President of EA Labels, Frank Gibeau.   Next we find them in the streets of New York making quite an impression on the locals.  Later that evening, we see an amazing “Star Wars The Old Republic Lightsaber Freeze Mob in Times Square.”   Finally, we find the doctors at Best Buy, Union Square for midnight release of this incredible game.

Just when you think the fanfare is over, we find Greg on CNN!

Fast Company, a business magazine that focuses on innovation, digital media, and leadership posted a terrific article on Star Wars: The Old Republic. Writer Jennifer Vilaga talks to Ray Muzyka, Greg Zeschuk, and Daniel Erickson about BioWare’s early days, the decision to make their first MMO, Daniel’s stress-induced condition which caused a weird kind of memory loss, and more. Bonus: the Doctors’ journey from med students to creators of SWTOR on the eve of release is told in comic-book form.
