In the latest Developer Dispatch, BioWare lays out some of the details about the upcoming 1.5 patch. This one is pretty exciting if I do say so myself. First we have the robot: HK-51. We'll be able to obtain, probably the best character ever made for a video game, in the upcoming patch! He looks to be a tank and dps companion.
The video also mentioned a new kind of mount, a tank! Sure, it is a rare drop from the upcoming Nightmare mode Explosive Conflict Operation, but that doesn't make it less awesome. Oh how I would love to own one of those, but as a non-raider that isn't going to happen.
Or is it? Bioware, you want to know what I would buy in the Cartel store? A tank mount! Not seen is me virtually throwing my Cartel Coins at the monitor. I can understand why it might have to be a very rare mount though. Can you imagine the Fleet packed with tanks? I still want one though.
There is also a new area opening up for players, Section X. It's for capped players to do dailies, group quests and take on a world boss (Dreadtooth) who gets bigger and badder with each defeat. The HK-51 questline also starts here.
Is Free to Play coming with 1.5? That's a big question which I don't know the answer to. Ther are talking F2P up, and it is on the PTS... so there is a chance it might be. What better time than with the HK-51 content? There is a rumor floating around that F2P will launch with it though.
