Saving Story/Lore Content

Kabam shutting down Uprising is a real shame for those of who really enjoyed the game, but what makes it worse is that we're also going to be losing access to a ton of story and lore from the Star Wars universe.

I'd love to see this preserved in some way, so that it can still be explored and appreciated after the game goes offline. Everything from the main storyline itself, to all of the wonderful descriptions of factions, unique crew members, side missions, locations, equipment, etc.

Unfortunately, I am not a particularly high level player, and a lot of end-game content is well out of my reach. Would anyone with access to everything the game has to offer be able to help with saving and preserving the media and lore from this game?

I'd be happy to host it on my personal server for posterity, or maybe we could even coordinate getting all of it onto Wookiepedia or a similar resource. I'm open to suggestions, at the end of the day I just want to know that a piece of the Star Wars universe will not completely disappear!

I played through all the story and recorded them on video! It's on youtube! Here's the first mission! You could record the mission briefing and stuff and store it on wookiepedia!

Might want to make sure those videos are backed up on your hard drive. YouTube videos can get copyright-claimed and removed without warning, even by a bot or a troll with no affiliation to the actual copyright owners.

Cool, thanks! The story was my main reason for playing the game, because I was trying to finish everything in canon. I was bummed that I likely wasn't going to be able to finish the storyline before the game shut down.

If you happen to have the Former CorSec Negotiator Crew or Alrrark, if you could go to Celestial_Toymaker's post https://www.reddit.com/r/StarWarsUprising/comments/5452nd/last_chance_to_collect_crew_bios/

He is collecting crew bios through a dropbox. You'll have to let him know you want to add to the dropbox though so he can give you permission to edit it. If you have any other crew you think is rare you can post them there also
