With the mass exodus of players from this game to other games, I'm not sure there are not enough whales left in the game to make this sale a "success"

I'm glad to see the steady subscriber drop has gotten your attention and while these changes are nice, they are not good enough to keep me subbed. This is just fixing a very broken and very, very unpopular system. As someone said earlier, the real problem is RNG. I couldn't imagine participating in an endgame system designed for a free to play model that's locked behind a subscription. I'' be back to check out 6.0, but as long as GC remains in the game, I'll find another game to play.

I'm done. Not re-subbing until they get it done right. I'm not paying to be their beta-tester.

This post right here is why the game is in serious trouble, and proves that EA/Bioware is completely out of touch with what the player base as a whole really wants. Get rid of RNG, get rid of the aberration that is "Galactic Command" , stop adding mini-flashpoints and make some moves to get new content into the game. Anything else is a Band-Aid, and if I were in charge of the team, I'd fire the lot of you.

f****d up beyond all recognition

...and that's it for the remainder of the playerbase that did raids... I will NEVER play a game based on the Star Wars IP EVER AGAIN!

I completely understand, and I also understand you meant to say "SEC" and not "FEC". With that said, any media or press release by the company prior to filing their required 10-K and 10-Q reports are NOT subject to sanction. While I think we're both "right" here, the real proof will be in the SEC shareholder reports for EA's 3rd and 4th quarters. Aside from sounding like "doom and gloom" here, things aren't looking too good for the game. Hopefully the jjmovie will bring in fresh blood that will stay after they blow through the currently released chapters. With the absence of a clear endgame and no new content coming except more chapters, I guess time, and hopefully excellent advertising will prove me wrong.

Thank you for the citations, however, two things you should know: 1) The information linked is from EA, intended for shareholder consumption. Need a more reliable source. 2) Linking a massively article is just thismuch a step up from Kotaku. Need a better source.

OP is spot on. And, we are at the 1 month post-KotFE point, where proof of success would lie in sub numbers and Cartel Market sales and... ... cancellations are up, or we wouldn't be discussing "Subscriber Rewards" ... requested feedback on the "new" CM packs are being described as "underwhelming" Not sure what "focus group" Bioware listened to that told them KotFE and a "return to story" was a good idea.... Stick a fork in this bad boy...

^This "Means" being the obvious shortcoming. The "Classic Conversation Presentation" in Alliance interactions is the prime example. No more voice content to recycle, and no funds to bring the original artists back in to add to dialogue. Stick a fork in this one, it's done.

I was wondering when someone would crunch the numbers in their own guilds, and the fanboys are true to form, bashing the OP, shooting the messenger... Look, I liked this game, lots of other people did too. KotFE did this game NO favors, and only served to reduce the population further. I truly hope the fanboys that stay to play have others to play the game with in a few months...

OP is spot on. I enjoyed the game before 4.0, but too many changes here for my liking. This is the 2nd game I've invested time in that has been changed midstream so dramatically that it barely resembles the game I started playing. So with that, this will also be the last "MMO" I will ever play. It seems that companies NEVER learn...

Run them story mode solo. Just pull a comp, set them to tank, and let them go to work. All you have to do is occasionally kill a few mobs, and loot your companions corpses.

I guess the "sale" applied to the new craptastic packs release with KotFailE. I was also hoping the old packs would return...
