It's #3 on amazon and the only MMO in the top 20

if you don't like this data then fine, present your own.
Must remember that Origin and EA aren't selling outside of their launch countries, I had to buy a key from some shady Russians for example. add to that the fact that Origin sales are not usually counted and we have a healthy population. The problem imo is servers are too many and the population is spread all over making many relatively low pop servers instead of less high pop ones.

Facts are these people in this thread want you to believe people are quitting in droves and to be honest I am not sure why but what ever. The REAL story is while I am sure people are going there are far more coming. I know several people who just started playing this game in the last couple weeks and LOVE the game as much as me.

Am I a fanboy? Yup. I love Star Wars and what Bioware has done with the game. Do I like everything they have done? Of course not. I can nick pick like anyone. I also know this game is absolutely awesome for a game just released and I have played alot of MMo's over the last 13 years.

I will say to anyone who thinks there is doom there isn't and don't belive the hype from all the people who want you to believe there is just some mass "exodus" cause there isn't. There will always be people who come and go though.

This link http://www.vgchartz.com/weekly/40930/Global/ shows just last week SWTOR has now sold over 2 Million copies and was 11th among all games sold. This is a fact, not a bunch of morons claiming "Doom and Gloom". As I said, don't believe the hype. Do your own re-search.

I guess I wasn't really in a guild for EQ or vanilla wow. Who knew we were just a bunch of chat room buddies killing dragons...

I haven't quit yet, but several of my friends already have half-way through leveling. I don't know how much longer I plan on subbing.

This game is simply too much like WoW. Sorry BW, but people are burnt out on that formula, and rather than try something new, you copied it to a "t," and simply added story to it. Is it a polished game? Yes, but the magic that I felt when I first started playing WoW (which was my first MMO), is just not there because I have done this all before. It is no longer original or fun, even with a Star Wars skin on it.

A lot of the good PvP'ers quit on my server. Not sure of the reasons, either the BM RNG system or perhaps when the changed illum. Perhaps they were getting tired of only 3 WZ's.

Either way, I feel like I am close to cancelling but dont want to bc I enjoy the pvp battles/gameplay. It will need some kind of major update for me to keep playing bc i am rapidly losing interest.

what bothers me is this what bieng sold as a "pvp" mmo all the best gear will be from pvp etc and 95% of the time its a rep base camp. Instancing isnt helping its just making less pvp even more. This game badly needs cross server pvp yesterday and theyre worried about the server "community" well its to late for that we didnt havee server forums for the first month and no we have 1/2 baked server forums. Hello server forums=community. I love this game and ive met these devs there nice guys but im finding it harder to log in i might even unsub and come back in 6 months and see b/c the faction imbalance is not bieng dealt with and im seeing les reps on my server anyways. I dont get how this game had such a awesome beta and miserable launch. Just very depressing to say the least...

Ok I haven't reach 50 yet but what I do is
Alternate between my favorite games I player swtor then log to wow for my arenas and rbg
Raids then log back to swtor

Why do people have to pin everything on this game
Go outside watch a movie of you get bored take a break
The games not supposed to keep you occupied 24/7
And if you want it or expect it to well I feel sorry for you your life must be painful

Pvp with good, competitive players on both sides is outstanding -- an adrenaline rush, with new situations to evaluate and react to on a rapid basis. Competitive huttball is -- beyond any doubt -- the most dynamic pvp environment I have ever seen. So much better than staic, open warfronts with regroup and capture the hill/flag/point/bomb objectives.

IMO, BW just needs to improve the matchmaking system so that pvp is competitive -- probably by prioritizing premades versus premades first, then some sort of gear equalization/comparison.
I have been in a few matches where my fellow guildmates end up playing against each other.

Win or lose, those can be the most fun. Sitting there playing while trash talking on vent to each other.

Now that is fun times ...
