BioWare Hosting Guild Summit For Star Wars: The Old Republic
Say what you will about MMO players, but you can't accuse them of being shy when it comes to providing feedback. Visit any game's official forum – especially right after a patch is released – and you'll see thread after thread of players questioning decisions about re-balancing tweaks, suggestions about endgame content, and the occasional constructive criticism in the form of "Is your entire studio brain dead?". BioWare and EA recognize that this kind of give and take between developer and player is critical in maintaining an MMO over the long term, and they're taking steps to do it right. This March, select guild leaders from Star Wars: The Old Republic are being invited to visit Austin and talk about the game over a few days.
The Star Wars: The Old Republic Guild Summit is taking place from March 4-6 in Austin, Texas. Attendees (either guild leaders or an officially designated representative) will be able to give the team feedback in person through Q&A sessions and roundtable discussions. They'll also get a chance to see upcoming game content and features and learn about the developers' plans for the Old Republic's future.
If you haven't been invited, there's still a chance you can get in. If you're 21 or older and are leading a guild in the game, fill out the survey here to be considered; applications will be accepted through February 10.
