La nouvelle Game Update 15 arrive à grand pas. Voyons ensemble le détail de ce qui s'annonce être un super patch!

Préparez vous à la guerre avec la nouvelle Game Update 15!


En effet, depuis quelques semaines déjà, les développeurs nous mettent l'eau à la bouche avec ce qu'ils appellent «la plus grosse mise à jour GCW (Galactic Civil War) jamais réalisée... ». Rien que ça!


Alors....Qu'est-ce exactement que cette nouvelle Game Update 15? Voyons en détail les informations déjà reçues jusqu'à présent!


Le contrôle des régions par faction


Toutes les actions auront maintenant une influence sur la région dans laquelle vous vous trouvez. J'entends par là que si vous gagnez des points GCW, quelle que soit votre manière d'y parvenir (soit en étant combattant et en tuant des npc ou en tuant des joueurs en étant spécial force), non seulement vous gagnerez personnellement des points mais aussi votre faction dans la région concernée.


Prenons un exemple: Imaginons que je sois un rebelle en spécial force et que je me ballade tranquillement dans la ville de Mos Esley. Soudain, un impérial (joueur) m'attaque et essaye de me faire la peau. Le combat se déroule mais pas de chance, l'impérial est tué. Je gagne donc des points GCW mais la Rébellion dans la ville de Mos Esley aussi!


Ce qui veut dire que la faction ayant obtenu le plus de points dans une région sera en possession de celle ci!


Les développeurs ont donc décidé de diviser chaque planète en région. On comptabilisera environ une quinzaine de régions par planète. Chaque région pourra donc être contrôlée par une faction en fonction des points obtenus. Puis le jeu fera l'addition des points des différentes régions sur la planète pour déterminer qui contrôle la planète.


Les planètes de Mustafar et Kashyyyk seront exclues de ce système.




Des sièges de villes


Une des plus grosses nouveautés de cette mise à jour sera la possibilité d'assiéger 3 villes (Soit la défendre, soit l'attaquer en fonction de qui contrôle la région). Ces villes seront: Dearic (Talus), Bestine (Tatooine), Keren (Naboo). Chaque profession aura un rôle bien précis dans cette prise de ville.


D'après les dernières informations reçues, cela se passera plusieurs fois par jour à hauteur de une fois toute les 2 heures. La prise de ville sera divisée en 2 parties: les phases de préparation et d'assaut.


La phase de préparation


Durant cette phase qui durera 30 minutes, la faction qui défendra la ville devra construire des outils défensifs. En effet, les traders prendront une part active dans la GCW en ayant la possibilité de crafter :

  • Des barricades (les mêmes que les barricades de l'instance Hoth)
  • Des points de patrouilles (point sur lesquels des npc alliés apparaîtront pour combattre)
  • Des tourelles défensives (non contrôlables par les joueurs)

Durant cette phase, les smugglers auront la possibilité de slicer les terminaux pour récupérer des outils de craft pour facilité les traders dans leurs démarches.


La phase d'assaut


Cette phase durera maximum 30 minutes. Durant cette phase, le but des assaillants sera de tuer un général (Gold lvl 110) qui se trouve au centre de la ville. Le but des défenseurs sera de défendre ce même général.


Le rôle des différentes professions

  • Smuggler : possibilité de slicer les terminaux pour faciliter le travail des traders durant la phase de préparation
  • Trader: possibilité de crafter les outils défensifs et de les réparer durant la phase d'assaut
  • Entertainer: possibilité de redonner du moral au npc qui l'ont perdu. En première approche, si les npc alliés subissent trop de dommages, ils se démoralisent et ne veulent plus combattre
  • Medic: possibilité de ressusciter les npc morts au combat
  • Spy: possibilité de saboter et détruire les points de patrouille ennemis

A la fin de la partie, la faction gagnante recevra des tokens (les perdants aussi mais beaucoup moins) qui permettront d'acheter des nouveaux rewards mis en place spécialement pour cette GU. Cette prise de ville pourra se faire soit en étant combattant ou spécial force (un bonus de token sera octroyé aux joueurs spécial force).


Les développeurs parlent d 'accroitre le nombre de villes concernées dans les futures mises à jour mais nous n'avons pas d'autres informations à ce sujet à l'heure actuelle."


Les effets de contrôle de région par faction


Actuellement, les développeurs annoncent que la faction qui contrôle une région aurait un temps d'attente nul pour les shuttles. En revanche, les perdants payeront un supplément de 50000 crédits pour annuler le temps d'attente.

Si une région est contrôlé à plus de 70%, les perdants devront payer un supplément de 500 crédits par % de contrôle supplémentaire au dessus de 50% (en approximation, si l'empire possède la région à 80%, en tant que rebelle il faudra payer 30 x 500 = 15 000 crédits sur le prix du ticket).


Aussi, si plusieurs starports se trouvent sur une planète, seulement un seul starport sera disponible pour le voyage inter-planétaire avec ticket pour la faction non-dominante. Le seul starport disponible sera l'un de ceux contrôlés par la faction dominante et donc payement de supplément à la clef.


Attention, ces changements ne seront appliqués qu'aux officiers GCW, c'est à dire tout ceux au dessus du grade de lieutenant. (les traders et/ou entertainers sont donc exclus)


Les rewards


Voici déjà une liste de rewards que l'on pourra acheter avec les tokens gagnés lors de ces prises de villes:

  • Technical readout of a fourth generation one-handed lightsaber hilt
  • Technical readout of a fourth generation two-handed lightsaber hilt
  • Charric Carabine
  • Gand Shockprod staff (polearm)
  • Pulse canon (heavy weapon)
  • TC-22 Blaster rifle replica
  • DH-18A Blaster Pistol Prototype
  • Rebel trenchcoat (veste)
  • Imperial trenchcoat (veste)
  • Weapon rack (armoire de rangement pour arme)
  • Nouvelles armure pour la faction rebel et impérial
  • Cape rebel et impérial
  • Divers éléments de décoration

Le space


Pour la partie space, le seul changement qu'il y aura sera le fait que le combat spatial aura une influence sur les points GCW de planète uniquement. Pas d'ajout de nouveau contenu.

Pas encore de date de prévue!

Les informations concernant la GU15 viennent de sources officiels notamment sur le forum officiel ou du Test Center. Cependant, aucune date n'a encore été dévoilée pour la sortie officiel du GU15... Patience!

Rebel trenchcoat <- ils ont pris des trenchcoat tout pourrie et y ont mis les symboles de faction, tu parle d'un reward, il aurait du confier le travail a des modeleurs qui ont plus de talents qu'eux!

Et d'accord avec Cahl, c'est STAR WAR, pas TOWN WAR, bref comme tout les autres update c'est jamais plus que 50%!

En même temps, arrêtez-moi si je me trompe mais le pourcentage de joueurs qui se sentent vraiment concerné par le PvP spatial doit être plus limité. Priorité donc aux rampants...

Peut-être niveau joueurs francophones, mais sur les forums officiels y a une belle communautés qui d'update en update se sente vraiment abandonnés par les développeur, mais bon je suis pas la pour défendre personne, je me suis barré après 4 ans d'Activité parce que justement niveau "Star" y avait plus rien, et niveau "Town" j'en avait assez des trucs réchauffé.

Star Wars Galaxies™ Galactic Civil War: Forces Under Siege (Game Update 15)
Publish Notes, January 25th, 2010
*Receiving Coded Transmission*
Imperial Naval Communiqué #31756
To: Fleet High Command and Sr. Officers
From: Ysanne Isard, Director of Imperial Intelligence
Imperial counterintelligence agents embedded with a Rebel Bothan spy network intercepted the following Alliance transmission. Our field agents have noticed heightened Rebel activity in certain sectors, and it appears as though we have uncovered the cause:
Following the recent situation on Dathomir, and additional rumors of Imperial atrocities, it is imperative that we take extreme measures to expand our intelligence gathering networks and secure vital communications routes. I am calling on all fleet commanders to rally ships and available ground forces to three critical strategic points across the galaxy:
Tatooine – city of Bestine: The capital of Tatooine is rife with corruption and political turmoil, and is also a key Imperial outpost. If we take and hold this city we will control a wealth of information that moves through the galactic underworld.
Talus – city of Dearic: Another capital city plagued by dirty politics and scandal, Dearic is also home to a diverse and bustling Starport. Control of this city provides a broad spectrum of intelligence that will span the entire galaxy.
Naboo – city of Keren: As the Emperor’s home world, Naboo is the beating heart of the Empire. To establish a control point on this planet would not only supply access to crucial intelligence, but would also be a devastating blow to Imperial morale and the Emperor himself. With its high level of commerce and financial influence throughout the Naboo system, Keren is the perfect target for this operation.
This mission takes top priority. The Empire must not be allowed to hold these cities. Good luck, and May the Force Be With You!
-- Leia Organa
Imperial Intelligence has confirmed the authenticity of this transmission. Squadrons will be assigned to deliver ground invasion forces to each of these locations to take and secure the cities. Under no circumstance can we allow these Rebel scum to gain a foothold. Be advised that Lord Vader himself has taken a personal interest in this matter, and failure will not be tolerated.
*Transmission End*

    • Pylons:
      • Pylons are construction points where you get construction quests.
      • Pylons are constructed by tools, which trade skill players manufacture. Anyone may use a tool, but trade skill players are the most effective at using tools during construction.

          • Defensive patrols stay entrenched at their constructed location.
          • Offensive patrols assault defensive positions.
        • Barricade:
          • This object guards nearby players and NPC's and is represented by a barricade icon floating over it.
        • Turret:
          • Turrets are AI controlled and fire at enemies nearby. The pylon for these is represented by a gun barrel or dish icon floating over it.
        • Tower:
          • Towers buff non-player controlled AI nearby to do incredible amounts of damage. The pylon is represented by a floating tower icon over it.
        • Vehicle Patrol:
          • Vehicle patrols spawn tough vehicles and are represented by a terminal icon floating over it.
    • Pylons are converted to their corresponding object when the construction phase ends and the battle phase begins.
  • Battle
    • Vehicle spawn points:
      • Level 1: Level 60 elite vehicle
      • Level 2: Level 90 elite vehicle
      • Level 3: Level 90 boss vehicle
    • Patrol spawn points:
      • Level 1: Level 60 NPC
      • Level 2: Level 90 NPC
      • Level 3: Level 90 elite NPC

      • Patrol points may be sabotaged by spies, which require a quest from their faction's general/attaché.

      • No levels, but HP is increased by 5000HP per resource added.
      • Vehicles target towers
    • Turret:
      • 5000HP per resource added.
      • Level 1-3: Increased damage per shot, but it can be mitigated by armor.
      • Turrets offer defender quests for general combat.
    • Wounded soldiers:
      • Offer a quest to revive fallen soldiers to medics. Will reinforce a location or begin patrolling into the city to add to the invasion force.
    • Damaged vehicles:
      • Offer a quest to tradeskill players for repair. Once repaired, they will reinforce the invading force by patrolling into the city.
    • Demoralized troops:
      • Offer a quest to entertainers to be entertained and rejoin the battle effort for both offense and defense.
  • Invasions occur every three hours and last an hour. Two of the three cities will be active during each invasion.
    • The construction phase lasts 30 minutes.
    • The battle phase lasts 30 minutes.
    • Defeating a defensive general will end a battle with the offensive team as the victors.
    • Keeping the defensive general alive for the entire battle phase (30 minutes) will allow the defending team to win.
    • Defensive general will flag players as Special Forces, if they persist in attacking him. A warning window will be displayed for attacking a general and not being Special Forces.
  • The Planetary Map for the appropriate planet will show the current phase that Bestine, Daeric, or Keren is currently in (construction, combat or occupation).
  • Factional Helper
    • Neutral players can become factional helper to help their favorite faction.
    • Use the command browser, /factionalHelper slash command, a faction recruiter, an invading city General or a city defensive Field Commander NPC to access the factional helper system.
    • There is a 30 minutes cooldown once you have stopped helping one side before you can start helping the other side. You can still immediately help the side that you most recently stopped helping.
    • If you are a Special Forces factional helper, you will be automatically changed to Combatant factional helper upon cloning.
  • Factional Presence
    • If you are factional special forces (NOT factional helper special forces), "actively" playing the game, not cloaked/incapped/dead, and out in the world in a GCW contested region, each minute, for risking life and limb to provide factional presence/patrolling the GCW contested region, you will automatically provide a nominal amount of points to the GCW score for your faction for the contested area. The amount of points is proportionate to the character level, plus a 10% bonus for each GCW rank.
    • Factional presence is only granted if you (or if mounted, your vehicle/mount) are on the ground out in the world. This means that factional presence is not granted if you (or if mounted, your vehicle/mount) are in/on any part of a structure (like entrance steps, roof, balcony, theater stage, etc), or on a bridge, or in a garden, or in the bazaar/bank plaza, or on a storyteller platform, etc.
    • A "GCW Factional Presence" radial menu has been added to the War Terminal and the War Intel Pad that displays a window showing the GCW contested regions that currently have factional presence activity.
  • Player City Factional Alignment
    • The mayor can set the city's factional alignment from the city's management terminal.
    • There is a 1 day wait to switch the city's factional alignment. There is no wait to align with the same faction that the city most recently aligned with.
    • The city's factional alignment is displayed in the city's status window and in the announcement message when you enter the city's borders.
    • If factional presence (see above) occurs within the borders of a same aligned player city (i.e. the player city overlaps the GCW contested region, and the factional presence occurs in the overlap area), there is a 100% bonus, plus a 10% bonus per city rank, plus a 5% bonus per year of city age.
  • Travel Perks And Restrictions:
    • Once a planet is 70% controlled by a faction, the following travel perks and restrictions will apply to GCW officers. To repeat, GCW travel perks and restrictions only apply to GCW officers.
    • GCW officers of the controlling faction will have 0 shuttle wait time.
    • GCW officers of the losing faction can only board every other shuttle, or pay a 50000 credits surcharge (each time) to avoid waiting for every other shuttle.
    • GCW officers of the losing faction must pay a surcharge for shuttle travel if either the departure or the arrival planet is 70% controlled by the opposing faction, whichever is greater. The amount of surcharge is 500 credits for each % above 70%.
    • If the planet has more than 1 Starport, only 1 Starport will be available for interplanetary ticket travel (both outgoing and incoming) to GCW officers of the losing faction. The 1 Starport that is available is the one that is least controlled by the controlling faction.
  • User Interface
    • The Galactic Civil War Information Screen:
      • A new button has been added to the button bar. The Galactic Civil War screen is THE location to get all the information you need to see what's going on in your part of the world, or how the war is going in other galaxies and the final score across all galaxies.
      • This screen can also be brought up with the /gcwInfo command.
    • The Galactic Travel Map:
      • The planet map has been updated to show areas that affect the outcome of the Galactic Civil War as well as the score for that current zone.
      • Areas currently under rebel control will show up as a rebel insignia, imperial control shows up as an imperial insignia, and 50/50 zones are shown with a contested insignia.
      • You can prevent the Galactic Civil War zones from showing up on your planet map by simply unchecking the "Show GCW Contested Zones" option on the Planet Map window.

  • Miscellaneous
    • Spawns will now be affected by a regions GCW score. The higher the score is in a region, the more likely you will be to see troops from the faction that is currently winning.
    • There are new collections tied to the GCW city invasions.
    • GCW points directly affect some planetary spawns and are properly represented on the war terminal.
    • Mon Calamari Cruisers or Star Destroyers will appear in the sky of a planet, depending on who is winning. The more your side is winning by, the more ships you'll see.
Battlefields
  • Replaced the original two story battlefield bunkers with reworked single story bunkers to address the line-of-sight issues caused by pvp'ing in those buildings.
Graphics
  • Frame rate limit increased from 30 to 60 FPS.
Storyteller
  • Storyteller vendors can now offer most props and NPCs in larger quantities when purchased.
Bounty Hunter
  • Sniper shot no longer requires a prone position.
Weapon
  • Pistol Launcher rocket trail particle density reduced.
Chronicles
  • Tusken Raiders from the Tusken King instance will now count towards 'Kill Tusken Raiders' and 'kill and loot Tusken Raiders' storyteller relics.
  • Greater Desert Womp rats should now count towards 'Kill any Womp Rats' and 'Kill and Loot any Womp Rats' Chronicle Relics.
Misc
  • Targets you cannot attack (such as same faction NPCs) will now display their health as a grey bar when targeted. You still cannot attack these NPCs, merely observe their health.
  • Added a checkbox on the character selection screen to hide characters screen on servers that are now closed.
  • Players may now equip as many cybernetic attachments as they wish. Now you can be the droid you're looking for!
  • The Allow Object Icon Rotation option now applies to toolbar icons and not just inventory/container item icons.
  • Export command now properly writes out font colors.
  • Players can now mark themselves as "Looking For Work" (either by using the command /lfw or checking the LFW option on the Character tab in the Community page). This tag is meant for players who wish to do commission based work or provide some type of service. You can search for players with this tag by using the community search tool.
  • No-Trade items can now be placed into containers inside a player's house or space POB.
