BioWare has posted news from the Public test servers. Here is a first look at the sniper and Operative combat styles: Since our livestream in July, players have had opportunities to access our Public Test Server (PTS) and give us initial on the updates we’re making to changes to the Imperial Agent. 161i1b
In the Imperial Agent’s current state, there is quite a bit to learn and memorize–you need to understand active abilities, ive modifiers, selectable utilities, and how they all work together. Our goal is to make these relationships clearer and easier to understand, while also ensuring that the class retains its identity.
To achieve these goals, we are identifying key aspects of the Sniper and Operative, and understanding how players both perceive and utilize the classes’ abilities. Our focus is to equip the player with knowledge and understanding of these abilities so they can make impactful choices when it abilities but ensuring that these classes remain distinct and unique.
As this round is a high-level first look at the Sniper and Operative, you will be Jedi Guardian, Jedi Sentinel, Sniper, and Operative.
For each class, the main questions we want players to focus on is “does this feel like a Sniper and Operative?” and “what abilities make this class unique?” We want to make sure that the foundation is strong and everything we build on top of that is in line with our goals for Combat Styles and giving players a sense of new but familiar.
