I am not trolling, EXACTLY 100%.

(disclaimer: This game will not just die thanks to how strong the Star Wars franchise it. But it will never be what it could have been if all the small fish leave the water)
BTW where have all the TOR Fanboys gone? I said this million of times on this forums and got flamed for it by the fanboys and the romance people.

And where are these posts telling them not to do this because it was likely gonna happen I would love you to link me some?

Because I can't find a single one on the test forums ?

DERP. They can rollback just Valor, I'm pretty sure.

Thoroughly enjoyed the game, and that's despite the crippling animation-delays.

But with today's game-breaking patch? No-go. Canceled as well. I don't pay for broken products.

What gives you the impression that they can fix this in a reasonable period of time (as in right now?) when they didn't manage to do it properly in 5 years?
Agreed. I have completely lost faith in Mythic. My trust of BW, whom I used to hold in the highest esteem, has been severely compromised.

I'm not canceling because the PvE side of things is still relatively fun to me, but I'm mainly a PvPer and am extremely disappointed that I have no endgame now on my Pub toon aside from Raiding. The $15/month sub is nothing to me, I still pay monthly subs to other MMOs that I haven't even played for months.

But they do need to right the ship. At the same time, any optimism I had that this could be done is completely gone. I truly believe BW and Mythic are inept at developing an MMO. Sure they are good at making cutscenes and writing questlines, but everything else is sub-par. What happened today with Ilum just cemented my complete and utter lack of faith.

CRY ME A REAVER !!!!!!!!
That's a very dangerous road to go down. BioWare is going to lose subs over this forever because the first real patch is a big deal and this one didn't go over so hot. That's just the way it goes in the MMO world.

Word of mouth and reputation are also very important. While they may just lose a relatively small amount of people permanently over this, chances are those people are going to tell X number of people to not even bother with SWTOR, which will cost BioWare future subs.

If a company starts to get a negative reputation from the start, that can be a very difficult thing to get rid of no matter what progress they make with the game. Some companies and games never recover from it once they get pegged with a bad reputation.

Believe it or not, the immediate future is an extremely crucial time for BioWare to right this ship. We just have to wait and see how it all plays out.
