Upcoming Patch To Smooth Out The Old Republic's Visuals, Gameplay

by Jeff Cork on Jan 09, 2012 at 03:31 AM

MMOs are traditionally ambitious endeavors, and Star Wars: The Old Republic is clearly no exception. One of the side effects of the genre's scale is that developers have a lot of post-launch tweaking and tuning. The Old Republic is getting an update soon, which will add anti-aliasing, a quartet of boss encounters, and loads of other adjustments.

Some changes are relatively minor, such as no longer classifying the Bounty Hunter class' Incendiary Missiles as AoE abilities. Some of the other 1.1 changes are more significant, such as the addition of four new bosses in Karagga's Palace. Check out the official patch notes for what's currently live on the game's public test servers.
