Late to the party as usual, I still feel like I should comment on the big announcement<\/a> that Legacy of the Sith<\/em><\/strong> has been delayed until February 15th of next year.\u00a0 Many, many folks assumed a delay was inevitable, but this was a bigger one than expected.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This year has been especially light on story content, and I am very much looking forward to jumping back into the thick of things, so it’s a drag that I will have to wait a couple more months. But I think it\u2019s for the best. The version of the PTS that went up this week still doesn\u2019t feel polished, and I would expect that the expansion should launch in a state better than \u201cmostly playable.\u201d As any veteran player can tell you, problems, even very serious ones, that pop up in SWTOR<\/strong><\/em> before the December break have traditionally not been addressed until well into January. So rather than rush to meet an arbitrary deadline, the good folks in Austin will get to go into the holidays at an easier pace, and should be able to take some extra time to tighten the nuts, patch the leaks, and smooth the edges out of the expansion. In the long run, it can only be a good thing.<\/p>\n

However, delaying the expansion one week before launch and just three after the initial date was even announced is not a good look for Bioware. Does it affect me personally? No. In fact, I\u2019m actually kind of glad that I won\u2019t have to worry about gearing up over Christmas vacation. I\u2019ll spend the extra couple of months keeping on keeping on. I\u2019ve got plenty of achievements to knock out and enough alts in need of care and feeding that I won\u2019t be lacking things to do. But I know other folks are feeling done with Onslaught<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0and will be taking the time to check out other games.<\/p>\n

In addition, I don\u2019t think it\u2019s unreasonable that other players might\u2019ve subscribed early to catch up on story or re-familiarize themselves with the game in anticipation of next week\u2019s announced update. SWTOR<\/strong><\/em> has long been a game that allows players to come and go as they please, and someone who took Bioware at their word that Legacy of the Sith<\/em><\/strong> would be launching next week shouldn\u2019t have to re-subscribe in February.<\/p>\n

If it were up to me (and, to be clear, it isn\u2019t) I\u2019d say anyone with an active subscription on December 14, should automatically receive access to Legacy of the Sith<\/em><\/strong>. In fact, I\u2019d go even further. Anyone subscribed at any point<\/em> between now and February 15, should get access to the expansion\u2019s story and leveling content.<\/p>\n

Look at me, spending EA\u2019s money!<\/p>\n

Titans of Industry, part 3<\/h3>\n

Finally, let\u2019s not neglect the Aurebesh any longer and take a quick return visit to the moon\u00a0CZ-198<\/a> to check out this hover train car that can be found in the freight depot in the bowels of the Czerka controlled installation.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The translation of the transport company’s logo is not complex at all, and it reveals a name that is either\u00a0a fairly unusual surname<\/a>, or perhaps a spelling mistake.<\/a>\u00a0The rules surrounding the usage of \u201cI before E\u201d have long vexed me, so if it is in error, it’s not one I’d ever hold against someone. If we read it as “Field Transit”, then the company name is somewhat mundane. I wonder if the logo\u2019s design suggests another possibility. Could the prominent circle be symbolic of a sun or star? If so, \u201cStarfield Transit\u201d strikes me as a rather more poetically\u00a0Star Wars<\/strong><\/em> name.<\/p>\n

Spelling error or odd name? The galaxy may never know!<\/p>\n
