I think you'll find different results. The dedicated hard core level 50 endgame players are the ones who are unhappy. Right now all the scrubs are truly happy and indignant at the reprisals of the people with genuine grievances. "Why should those unhappy complain? I'm perfectly happy!" When you understand the higher level concepts of the game you will find it lacking at a much more important level.

The vast majority of players are indeed very happy, because frankly.. They just don't know any better. And that is wonderful! For them. But.. those folks tend to get .. distracted by "real life" quite a bit and quit and a much brisker pace once they get bored, and believe me this is an eventuality. Eventually the serial altoholics and lookieloos will reach endgame, and figure out.. hey.. ***?
man...stop that ...it won't work ...ok? 3 months from now I guarantee you it will be growing just as fast as now. Stop with the damm negatives!!!

Ah, MMO Noobs. If you didn't play UO, then yes your noob. Played WOW Since release?....your especially a noob. Warhammer Online was truly the wow killer, everything about it had the potential to slay WOW.

This game also has the potential to destroy WOW as well. Unfortunately it won't and I might remind all of you this game has not been out more than two months.

SWTOR has been out less than two months! Warhammer was more epic at two months than this will ever be, and guess what? It failed....

Warhammer had epic pvp battles. EPIC pvp battles and everyone still left but only after 6 months of slaughter. They left because of glaring design issues.

People left Warhammer because of obvious design flaws, despite a lot of fun that was had!

Why is there no opportunity for me to encounter the opposing faction on Taris??? Is there a good reason.... Nope.

I'm paying for one more month because I want this game to succeed.

I paid for EVE for many months and never played or skilled just because I liked the detail and depth of the game and would have liked to see it grow.

I'm not feeling very charitable anymore and I hope Mythicware can turn this snooze fest around before I lose all hope.

Don't forget this game is still new and new player sales will probably sustain the game through the first 2-4 months. After that it's gonna be sink or swim. I Hope a dev reads my comment and puts some boots in some @sses.

Growing usually involves a + and not a - on subscription numbers.
SWTOR is an excellent game if you view it from the standpoint of 2003!

Ergo, gathering point for endgame content being the same size means that either nearly the entire population of his server was already at cap and therefore no change occurred (doubtful this early in the game) or that its not growing, implying that some people left the game.

Seriously, use a little logic.
Really? so you are assuming that everyone as soon as they get to 50 they will just go and sit in the Fleet waiting for stuff to happen?

You know that if you have a guild, you can actually talk to your "friends" on guild chat and plan stuff without being in the fleet right? Also most guilds have a website and plan in advance for those events.

Also do you know when someone is in a FP or OP they wont be in the fleet asking for a group to join?

Do you consider that many ppl when they get to 50 they rather wait in their ships when queueing for Warzones, so loading times are shorter? I know i do and most of the ppl i know do that or just stay in Ilum to get the valor buff before entering the WZ.

Also, afaik, you dont need to be 50 to be in the fleet, so pretty much anyone above 10 can be there for a reason or another. Crafting, training, GTN whatever.

Do not forget that even the fleet has multiple instances, so any number is speculation, unless you go around hopping instances just to check.

So there is the logic for you, being level capped has no relation to quantity of people in the fleet at any given time. Also who would even want to stick there for a long time anyway, the more people it has the lagier it gets.

There were fewer heavy servers at 7:00 PM PST in NA tonight (39) than on Wednesday (58,) a work/school night. It's easy to make one little section of data match an agenda.

Ya OP, plenty of stuff happening on Mask of Nihilus - both sides. The lowest pop count I've seen since launch was 45 on Korriban and the highest was 650 at fleet (dc'd because of the lag and my pos PC.) Every zone I'm in has at least 90 now and most are typically in the 165 to 200 range. Competition for quest mobs is common and world boss pugs happen almost nightly. Maybe our server is an anomaly because it sure ain't dead.
Can we please just have our pre-KotFE SWTOR MMORPG back?

You are crazy! What server is that exactly??? I've seen nothing even remotely close to those numbers....

Maybe I need to reroll? Please reply with what server. Thanks in advance.

I can agree, believe me if you look at my join date you'll know I'm not a troll and I want the game to succeed. I also played SWG and have always been a Star Wars fan.
