Hey folks,

We are going to be having a brief downtime to address two issues:
  • We believe we have a fix for characters stuck with a versioning error.
  • To add Early Access to those players who were missed the grant yesterday.
The plan is for maintenance to take an hour and we are going to start/end it as soon as possible!

Hey folks,

We have isolated some situations where players who should have had Early Access to Chapter XVI, did not receive it. We are working to resolve this as early as possible today. I will let you know when this has occurred.

Thanks everyone.

  • Some players can see the error message "There has been an unexpected error while versioning your character."
    • If you receive this error you will unable to log into that specific character. We are working on a game-wise fix for the issue. In the meantime you do not need to contact CS as they cannot address this issue.
  • Players who completed the Dark vs. Light: Flashpoint Master Achievement before Game Update 4.7 are not properly being grant progress towards Dark vs. Light: Legend.

ClaytonL has the correct answer. That was a typo, and I apologize that it made it to this point and none of us caught it. If you would not have qualified for Early Access in July, you don't for this launch date either. Ben's last bullet should have said the 11th, not the 9th. I will get that corrected immediately to avoid any further confusion.

Again, I apologize that the typo was out in the wild that long, and for any confusion it caused.

Hey folks,

We are experiencing issues at the moment with updating web content, so I am going to post the notes here. Once we get the issue resolved I will make sure to get /patchnotes and the launcher are updated as well. Here they are in the meantime!

Game Update 4.7: The Battle of Odessen

Highlights
  • Chapter 16 The Battle of Odessen! Prepare to face Arcann in deadly combat as he launches a full-scale assault against the Alliance base on Odessen! Still recovering from a shattering betrayal of the now-renegade droid, SCORPIO, the Outlanders Alliance must rally to defeat Arcanns forces in a desperate battle to determine the fate of the galaxy!
  • New Alliance Alert: Shining in the Darkness! Something is fishy on Nar Shaddaa. Voss Mystic Sana-Raes most recent vision will send you to the Smugglers Moon in search of a mysterious Force user. Luckily Blizz is sure he knows exactly who she means and will be tagging along for the ride.
  • New Pack Opening Experience! This new experience enhances the way you open packs, store, and acces your items. Read more about this feature in our Community Blog.
  • Collections Improvement! Collections has seen a slight re-organization! For ease of use, Collections now has several helpful subcategories to help you quickly find a weapon type or creature mount. Companions now have their own Collection category.
General
  • Weapon Tuning slots have been added to Level 50 Operation and PvP weapons.
  • Players can now use the Companion Locator Terminal in the Alliance Base Camp to regain Companions which became unavailable due to The Fallen Empire storyline. You must complete Chapter XVI before this option is available. Note that the terminal does not allow you to regain Companions which were guests (such as Darth Marr).

Items + Economy
  • A new vendor has been added outside the Eternal Championship. This new vendor sells 220 Rating items for Eternal Championship Trophies.
Missions + NPCs
  • Removed the Group Finder Tactical Flashpoint Mission that was incorrectly appearing on the Republic Fleet's Priority Missions Terminal.
  • Attack effects no longer fire from the feet of Annihilator T4-1D.
  • M1-4Xs Quick Kolto Burst now fires from his cannon instead of his chest, which he considers a marked improvement.
  • The description of the Heroic Transport item on the Mission Search and Rescue now references the correct Mission.

Maintenance Mix-Up?

WarSoul
You know, I kept thinking to myself "I am forgetting something." That something is updating the original maintenance thread to note the new timing of maintenance. Consider it updated.

As others have noted, we are in maintenance right now to deploy 4.7. Our maintenance was moved due to an issue which cropped up.

If you are reorganizing data or any other form of patching, let it finish. Once that is complete you can restart your client and once maintenance is complete you will be all set to login.
