BioWare has stated it plans to be more aggressive than Blizzard in developing major content titles for its MMO Star Wars: The Old Republic.
According to an interview with Eurogamer, game director James Ohlen stated:
“I’d say we’re gaming to be more aggressive than the industry standard World of Warcraft in terms of how often we release our post-release content.”
He went on to detail what the next update scheduled for March will feature, including a new world, as well as new features for guilds.
“…On that world we have a new Operation, which is playable by eight of 16 players. We’re also going to have a new WarZone.”
He added in terms of the new systems in the March update, including the Legacy system that rewards users for making additional characters:
“So we have most of the Legacy system coming in our Game Update two. We also have more guild functionality coming in – we’re going to be introducing guild banks. We’re also going to be introducing changes to the space game to basically make it more usable to the endgame players.”
Additionally, there are hopes to create events throughout the Galaxy.
“we want to make the galaxy feel more alive. So we have a team that’s entirely focused on events in the galaxy. We’ll be giving more information on that in the future.
“We have multiple teams working on content and game systems and we already have people working on the third patch.”
Star Wars: The Old Republic’s first content update Rise of the Rakghouls is scheduled to release January 17.
