Game Update 5 to Star Wars Galaxies went live earlier today, but there have been a number of changes to the game over the last few months. So much so that Sony Online Entertainment wanted to be sure we understood some of the most drastic changes to the Officer class. Previously a competent ranged DPS stand-in, the Officer is now a highly specialized aggro management and group organization mechanism.
Check out the video for full details on these class changes. They include several methods of redirecting mob attention where the Officer wills it, a unique rally point ability that allows players to teleport right back into the action, and the ability to 'toggle' buffs onto the group for ongoing benefits. As per usual, the video is below the cut.
Whats with the damn Jedi on that picture directing everyone else like he's in charge or something?
"I'd be like biatch, better sit your pointing butt down before I roll the ship and you land on your head you non-timeline following bastage"
The whole Jedi issue from the start is what destroyed that game. They should have never, ever allowed them. If LA wanted a game with Jedi's in it, they should have made a different timeline. Oh well, the milk is spilled, dried up and gone at this point no use in crying over it.
The sooner someone makes a good sci-fi game, any sci-fi game, the sooner everyone will forget this dud from day one game.
