3 Million Chronicle Missions

Saturday, November 21st, 2009

From 1Up:

Introduced back in October, Chronicle Master allows users to create their own missions and share them with the community. Fans have apparently responded in a big way, creating some three million pieces of interactive Star Wars fiction in just over a month alone.

The Chronicle Master is similar to the City of Heroes Mission Architect, which was released earlier this year. It was similarly successful, generating some 3800 arcs in the first 24 hours it was available.

Star Wars Galaxies number are particularly impressive given that it’s estimated to have a mere 50,000 subscribers. But then, Sony Online Entertainment claims that one player created 6,000 playable quests all by himself. That’s some serious dedication there.

Out of Sight, Out of Mind

Friday, November 20th, 2009

There has not been a retail box version of Star Wars Galaxies for a couple years now. This was not good for the game, as many people browsing for a new game to play would never have thought of SWG.  The only way to get the game was to download it.

Well, the visablity of the game has just increased as Star Wars Galaxies is now available on Steam!

If you go to the link and watch the Trailer, even that looks new. Correct me if I am wrong, but it appears that SOE/LA is finally making an effort to get more subs.

And the game is 50% off at $9.99 for a limited time. And General Grevious Wheel Bike? If I buy the game and register the code, do I get get the bike? That would be worth $10 to me.

Moving in the right direction guys. Good on ya’.

Entertainer Buff Thingie

Sunday, November 15th, 2009

6 or 7?

In order to limit the buff bots in the game, the Devs added an occasional popup window to ensure that someone ATK is there to answer in order for the buff to continue.

Sometimes the icons are hard to count.

If you say there are 6 icons in the image above, like I did, you’d be wrong.

There are 7
