So I haven't played SWTOR for a couple months (got Skyrim; enough said), and I'm slightly bemused by the news. I heard about the Cartel Coins and a new trade system or something like that, and it was supposed to be coming "this fall", along with a bunch of other stuff, with this very vague date. Well, it's about two weeks to fall equinox, I think, and I was wondering if we have some more concrete dates, or indeed if it's already happened and I missed it. From what I've gathered we're now in update 1.4, and this means that there are new flashpoints and such, right? Is the new trade thing up? Is that new droid companion thing up? Is it now free to play with optional subscription? I have no idea what's going on, I've peeked in the news section and there seems to be a distinct lack of dates. I know this stuff is all very hard to manage and the company's got plenty of problems to work with, but can I get a October or November or something? Or maybe a "*******, this already happened"?
Oh, side note: when I last played SWTOR, I also got a message saying Lord Ieldis server was going to be shut down along with a couple other lighter population servers (but my wide open empty spaces!), again sometime "this fall", is that still happening? Because I logged on just now, and aside from having completely forgotten what I was doing with my characters I still seem to be on Lord Ieldis.
TL;DR, I have no idea what's going on with SWTOR, someone tell me.
