  1. I'll leave the set bonus / tactical discussions for smarter people than me. I have questions about this bit, though: Does that mean: you hit the button once to activate the ability, then you can use it again while the cooldown timer is running? Thanks, Brian
  2. Try to enjoy Episode 226! http://badfeelingpodcast.com/audio/podcasts/episode_226_final.mp3 We've learned a lot more about the new in game event for Star Wars The Old Republic! When we travel to Dantooine, we'll find more pirates and different sets of missions depending on when you visit. With all the new changes we've seen in the game, why has crafting been largely ignored? Brian has a list of wants for crafting to make that aspect of the game better than ever!
  3. https://badfeelingpodcast.com/audio/podcasts/episode_225_final.mp3 The cameras are back! Not that you podcast listeners should care, but we're back on Twitch. So... yay? In addition, there's been a handful of things to discuss with Star Wars the Old Republic. SWTOR has been tagged with a case of the Fake News! Reports of its death are greatly overrated. Our friend Mike Bradley posted the April PVP update and an explanation of something called "Death Volumes" They go to eleven. There's been some discussion about the HK subscriber reward chapter. Should it come back? How should it come back? And finally, we discuss Dantooine. The pirates are on Dantooine. This week's outro music: 8-bit Cantina Band
  4. https://badfeelingpodcast.com/audio/podcasts/episode_224_final.mp3 There's a new contest! Guild heraldry is a thing, and we need guild logos! Head over to https://swtor.jedipedia.net and try out the Guild Banner Designer. Craft us a sweet logo and you could win a 30-day subscription code courtesy of Swtorista! We know a few more details about the gear changes coming to Star Wars The Old Republic when Expansion 6.0 drops in September. Onslaught will include changes to how your gear and stats work. There will be new pieces to chase called 'Tactical Items'. We don't know much about them, but we will go ahead and draw some wild conclusions anyway. Last week, Kathleen Kennedy, president of LucasFilm, set our hair on fire by possibly stating there might be something relating to Knights of the Old Republic coming soon. It also may be pure fluff and marketing jargon. Let's listen to the quote and dissect it! This week's outro music: Cantina Band by Tyron Hapi
  5. Please consider what we can do with multiples of the same piece. I don't need 8 copies of relic of the Primeval Fate Sealer. It would be nice to be able to swap those for something useful
  6. I'm still unclear on what a Tactical Item looks like. Is it a mod that I add to a piece of armor ? Is it a consumable ? Is it a 15th piece of gear ? Does it have a cooldown ? I'm also fuzzy on how these are different than the Utility system already in place. Clarifications welcome! Thanks, Brian
  7. ITS HAPPENING TONIGHT! Come one, come all! We'd love to see you there!
  8. New pod is up! http://badfeelingpodcast.com/audio/podcasts/episode_221_final.mp3 New things are on the way for Star Wars The Old Republic! Guild Heraldry is a thing. We prefer the term 'space logo'. Our friends at Bioware announced that with game update 5.10.2 we'll see space logos. Also some other fun tweaks to the preview window and more. Did you know win trading was still a thing? There are also still exploits happening. Bioware dev Mike Bradley is prepared to bring down the hammer. Finally, you may know that we complain about gear. A lot. ***** in boxes. Boxes of *****. We answer a listener question about what we'd like to see done differently regarding the gearing process. This week's outro music: Bogg at the Cantina
  9. Hey everybody! Come to Austin on Saturday March 16th!The Bad Feeling Podcast is hosting our annual Sx Swtor event! We'll be at the Pour House from 6:00 til ??? We'll have drinks, prizes, drinks, maybe some devs, drinks, tons of conversation and lots of fun.Also, there will be drinks. Here's the map to the Jollyville location (away from the madness of downtown) We'd love to see you out there!
  10. Hey folks, I wanted to jump in here to hopefully shed some light on the situation.Apologies for the wall of text, but let's break this down a bit: 1) Influencers are content creators. This is probably due to the fact that influencer programs in general are tied to marketing. Content creators help promote Swtor. 2) Sometimes, BioWare will give us codes for giveaways and sometimes some support on the social platforms. 3) Influencers sign lengthy non-disclosure agreements. This covers anything on the forums, conversations, interviews, etc. Unless a special exception is made, we are not allowed to discuss anything that isn't already public knowledge. 4) Influencers don't have much (if any) say over what direction the studio takes. We relay feedback from our respective communities, which is usually mirrored here in the gen forums, or reddit, or twitter, etc. (believe me, there are a few things that I personally argued against that are still in the game). 5) The NDA forums are usually discussing access to content pre-release. They also afford the devs a 'safe space' to bounce ideas around. If they post something in the general forums, players (justifiably) take that to mean that the something is going to happen -- think of Charles' post about adding weapons to outfit designer. 6) We're not paid shills. Some of the influencers are genuinely happy with the state of the game. Some are not, but don't announce it. Others (cough, bad feeling podcast, cough cough) are more open about what they like or don't like in the game or some of the decisions from BW. Our opinions do not have any impact on our status in the influencer program. 7) We don't claim to represent the entire playerbase. We all do different things in game, and its unrealistic to think we speak for every player and every playstyle. When asked, the Influencers can reply with "my listeners feel X" or "I got a lot of comments that Y is a bad idea" etc etc. 8) Rarely do we know more about what's coming up in the game than the rest of the players. I still don't know anything about 6.0, or if there will be any updates past 5.10.2 in early March. We've been asking -- a lot -- about future content updates and what we can tell our audiences. We are met with the same cone of silence as everyone else. I hope this helps alleviate some of the confusion out there. If you have any questions / comments / hate mail, hit me up! -Brian
  11. Hey devs! Will the matchmaking changes also be a part of the first round of PVP changes? From the summer roadmap: >We’re taking an in-depth look at our unranked PvP matchmaking system overall to see what kinds of improvements we can make to better ensure every match is a good one. Some of the WZ changes will be bad with crappy matchmaking. Thanks! -B
