Facebook Image of the Week #19

Wednesdays are more than just the middle of the work week; it’s also the day we get a new, officially sanctioned image! Here it is, in all it’s glory!

The neon glow of Nar Shaddaa’s endless cityscape does little to blind travelers to the rampant crime and constant danger that lurks around every corner.

Very good lighting effects in this shot showing off the true potential of the graphical engine; the spotlights really illuminate and have independent effects. Notice also the Bith musicians pictured in the neon lights on the left, gleefully advertising their favorite watering hole.

Facebook Image of the Week #18

It’s Wednesday, which means it’s time for another new image on The Old Republic’s Facebook page!

 

An enterprising young Bounty Hunter conducts business with Nem’ro the Hutt, a powerful and influential crime lord on the foul world of Hutta.

It’s a familiar shot in an unfamiliar setting; one can only imagine what the future holds for the Twi’lek dancer chained to Proto-Jabba! More telling, however, are the nice shader and lighting effects on the Hutt, as well as the blue light on the bottom of the bounty hunter’s jetpack. A nice technical shot for what the engine can do.

Facebook Image of The Week #17

Following up on the Tatooine theme of E3, this week’s Facebook Image of the Week from BioWare finds us in the city of Anchorhead:

Jawas, notorious tinkerers and collectors of discarded desert junk, carefully inspect an astromech droid at one of Anchorhead’s many trading posts.

I wonder if one of those Jawas are named Blizz?

Facebook Image of The Week #16

After a full week of E3 goodness, BioWare is back to providing us with a mid-week taste of TOR! This week we get a screenshot from Dromund Kaas near the Dark Temple:

The courtyard of the Dark Temple is frightening enough to keep away even those few willing to challenge the Emperor's decrees.

Facebook Image of The Week #15

‘Twas the Wednesday before E3… which means this is the final Facebook image we’ll get before we know whatever BioWare has up their sleeves for the show!

This week we get a screenshot of Dromund Kaas:

Dromund Kaas

Dromund Kaas is a beacon of efficiency and discipline. With a fully militarized society, police actions are rarely needed.

The Empire’s counter to Coruscant, it will be interesting to explore this planet fully realized.
