3. Holofeed
- Game Update 4.3: Visions in the Dark was released on Tuesday morning. There were several known issues. It’s been determined that players have incorrectly lost their Legendary status, which won’t be remedied until Game Update 4.4 on 3 May.
- The April Producer Livestream was held on Tuesday afternoon. The official summary has been posted, along with Dulfy’s write-up.
- The Visionary Alliance Pack is now available.
- The Eternal Championship is available on the PTS, and will remain there for another week. Due to the map being unavailable, follow these instructions to get there. There has already been one PTS update, with another planned. It will go live with Game Update 4.4 on 3 May.
- James Ohlen, BioWare’s Senior Creative Directory, has begun tweeting again. That includes a hint of more MMO bits being planned, and a new Blur trailer for possibly an expansion to SWTOR.
