ACTU

Première grosse mise à jour pour SWTOR

CBL par CBL,  email  @CBL_Factor
 
Partant du principe qu'il faut mettre sa tête dans le tauntaun pendant qu'il est chaud, BioWare va déployer la semaine prochaine la première grosse mise à jour de Star Wars : The Old Republic.

Cette version 1.1 va ajouter et améliorer trois tonnes de trucs et permettra aux joueurs d'affronter des zombies Rakghouls sur Kaon. D'ailleurs cette mini-extension s'appelle Rise of the Rakghouls.

Si vous vous demandez pourquoi le jeu a toujours l'air plus joli dans les captures d'EA ou dans les cinématiques/dialogues, ça vient des textures. C'est le même problème depuis EverQuest : Shadows of Luclin : comme il peut y avoir beaucoup de monde à l'écran, utiliser des textures haute résolution risquerait de faire ramer les plus puissants PC.

C'est en tout cas ce que déclare BioWare. Même si dans les options vous choisissez l'option "high", les textures resteront en "medium" durant les phases de jeu. Kotaku a fait une capture pour illustrer le tout.
