KimbriOnasi Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Personally I can't wait for the Cathar to be playable. I have two slots waiting for them--one as a Jedi and one as a Sith Sorc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have two slots waiting for them--one as a Jedi and one as a Sith Sorc. i have 2 slots waiting for them too. one's gonna be a marauder (the one class i don't have yet), the other will be a fat, cuddly scoundrel.

Shukan Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 I just wish they would roll out the Cathar as they promised this past Summer. What gets me that they promise this for this year and it still has NOT happened. No wonder BW is losing subscribers hand over foot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LostInReverie Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 I hope Cathar come soon. I really want to play a female Cathar, not sure what class though. I think Jedi Knight would be interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omega-alpha Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 (edited) What if the Cathar are going to be a buyable playable race class. That you can only get through the Cartel Store with cartel coins. Also what if that could be a trend. For those who have the coins to spear. But don't what to spend 1.5 mil in game credit to unlock future playable races or who have yet to create a LVL 50 Legacy character yet. Could this be a good idea or a very bad idea for Bioware to try with a few popular playable character races ???

JediMB Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 I really want to play the Jedi Knight story with a Cathar, Juhani was my favorite companion in KOTOR. This species needs to become playable very soon! Agreed. I'm saving my Jedi Knight slot for when Cathar becomes playable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legolose Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 (edited) I think I get why the hatred for cathars. A lot of people are too scared of being accused of playing cartoon characters. Well, if I'm wrong, why people always name cathars thundercats and claim they "don't belong"? This is true, I mean really who wants to play a Thundercat anyway when there was a heck of alot more species that they could have added.... Agreed. I'm saving my Jedi Knight slot for when Cathar becomes playable.If you stay as a subscriber when f2p opens you will be getting 10 more character slots so ....

Uluain Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 Plenty of people do want Cathar, which is why BioWare chose them as the pilot run for any new species: they were consistantly high in player preference whenever the question was asked in the past. If you stay as a subscriber when f2p opens you will be getting 10 more character slots so .... No, subscribers still have 12. Free players who become subscribers are upgraded 10 slots, from 2 to 12. And funny how quickly folks jump in to bump anything else if an SGR thread it at the head of a line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thargrim Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Its been a long time since Cathar were announced, starting to think it may not be happening now...too many layoffs maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kilikaa Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 they said "in the coming year" not specifically in 2012. it hasn't been a year since they made the cathar announcement yet. At E3 they announced it as coming this year, meaning 2012. Since then a lot of crap has happened that changed the entire timetable, so who knows when they will come out. I still say March 2013 we will get them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamthehoyden Posted November 20, 2012 Author Share Posted November 20, 2012 They're going to be a Cartel Market unlock - so save your coins if you want one. Also, it's likely that they won't be in by the end of this year. There's going to be one more major content update this year (which is likely the Makeb storyline) and Cathar probably won't be in it. Not for certain, of course, but unlikely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EcrirTwyLar Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Can someone tell my BW's reasoning, if there is any to be had, as to why Cathar are the next species. I have no use for them and it seems it was an arbitrary decision. I think the Cathar are a popular species. But I personally would rather see Bothans. Maybe Bothans will be added later. I have to admit that I would probably pay to play a Bothan. But Bothans might take a bit more work because they are smaller in size than other species.

warklaw Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 I'd like to open saber options for all force classes too. A Jedi Knight/ Sith Warrior using a saberstaff would make for some awesome offensive and defensive capabilities. Especially to have a Cathar Jedi Guardian armed with one of those? Good night sweet prince. I know I'll definitely be playing a Cathar Knight. I just wish [because I know hey won't do it] they would get someone to VO the Cathar separate so they have their distinct russian-esque accent and the growls on the harder syllables.

OldVengeance Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 Are Carthar known for having Russian accents? I thought only Juhani did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mubuka Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 (edited) Personally I can't wait for the Cathar to be playable. I have two slots waiting for them--one as a Jedi and one as a Sith Sorc. I cant wait for the Cathar to be playable either. I actually really like the species and think it would be cool to play as one. I am saving at least one slot for a Cathar character. ::csw_r2d2::csw_bluesaber: Edited December 24, 2012 by Mubuka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AntarNyaus Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Are Carthar known for having Russian accents? I thought only Juhani did. I wouldn't say Russian accents, but they do sound different. Humans evolved from omnivores while Cathar evolved from carnivores. Their dental structure would produce a voice with much more pronounced sibilants. It would be very cool for Bioware to do this with the voice, but I don't see them redoing the voice for all eight classes on all missions. And I don't see how you could apply a filter to the existing ones to modify the sound sufficiently (but I'm not sound effects artist). Back on topic, I am still waiting eagerly for the Cathar to be released. I'm feeling a bit burnt out on the game. The new tier 7 ship components have bankrupted me between my two 50s I've managed five or six of the parts and now I'm broke. So I've been playing a lot of Skyrim and LOTRO while I rebuild my savings on the AH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir_Galapagos Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 cathar suck ***. There are tons of species that bioware already has some models for, shown by some npcs, that would be a much better addition to the game. Maybe even as species that was *gasp* in the movies?

LadyKohastFel Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 I have been saving character slots for a Cathar smuggler and a Sith maurader. I think they would be the ideal first race to make playable and I would not mind if they cost 600 CP to unlock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElmosOnCrack Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 So am i the only one sitting here thinking they put Chiss in (Probably) because of Thrawn... Where are my Noghri? Just a wish but i would love to have the Noghri as a playable they can speak basic two with a rather raspy voice which might be fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calethan Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 So after looking around for a while, I still can't seem to find any ETA on Cathar. Are they supposed to be part of the Hutt Cartel expansion set? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
