SWTOR's new patch makes a mess, BioWare looking into it [Updated]
Welp, Star Wars: The Old Republic's 1.1 patch has arrived, and it's brought a bit of baggage with it. Imperial PvPers have been taking advantage of faction imbalances to farm hapless Republic players on the level 50 world of Ilum, and BioWare has responded to the resulting outcry with a ...

The MMO Report: Cool balloon bro edition
