First they do not outsrouce there work there call center is in California for North American Customers and the UK, Japan has one now for the Japenese call center. Second, The OFFICIAL WORD IS:



" The BARC speeder will be offered to customers who purchase the SWG Total Experience Pack. However, the BARC will be made availabe as a quest to all others. The Customers who purchase the pack will not have to complete the quest to aquire theirs."


The craftable speeders was a mistake on there part as they were referencing the 3 new speeders and thought the BARC was one of them. Either was one tidbit i did get from them is Multi-passenger vehicles is coming in patch17 and ground vehicle combat is coming in patch 18. That is confirmable.


Either way EVERYONE can get one.



And for the poster above........... I don't spread BS i find out from the source, and you should know that the CSR's are located in the same building as the DEV's and they do talk often and I am informed that when they don't know an answer a supervisor only has to go upstairs to ask them and they commonly do. You like to point fingers try picking up the phone and getting a name of someone like i did, either way if BS is flowing its direct from the source, cause i write down word for word what i am told by them.

Dude, dont believe this joker. This is the oldest trick in the book of "I got a friend who knows an uncle who is a CSR and he said...". Unless he posts a link to a quote of a dev on the sony site, or a dev/csr comes here to post himself, take it the same as you would take a man from south africa calling you to tell you that you have dead realitives that left you a lot of money and he needs your credit card and social security number.



An empire of one!

dunno but i'd say that if they made the varactyl a ch trainable and then they made the barc only available from the retail pack it would be outrageously unfair. i for one would scream and yell about being stiffed with a preorder 'gift'. so if i were a dev trying to put out fire's if the varactyl is ch then the barc would have to be a quest item. so do yourself a favor find a varactyl baby then once you have post in this forum about the unfairness of the lack of a quest i'd say. Me I think this is enough talk for a bit and i'm going to go look for the quest ...

if anyone has any information on how to start the quest be sure to post since I've looked everywhere and found only hints of it but no hard proof and no one who has managed to find it yet. i'm merau on scylla. i'll tip for solid info.
