Well it gave some nice snippets of info on the launch of the game. And the giving the community want they want/asks for/wishs is a bit from the truth IMO.

If people buys the game because of 1 video then they are either very susceptible or would have bought it anyway. I dont recall this has been done before by any mmo, so it might just be another tool in the campaign to get more people to play since I have seen tv commericals citing danish game websites on how great a game SWTOR is. So they are just trawling for customers like so many other companies on tv

The game is awesome but for "the fastest growing mmo ever" and 2 million purchases the game doesn't feel like it is full of people. My server is standard pop and i see way less people than i'm used to in other mmos, hopefully they can make server transfers available soon

Nah, we expect the people in charge of doing that, to do that. However, it seems they're all on vacation and the community isn't getting any information. (Well, some, but not nearly close to enough.)

Fix your engine! Still have like 20 days playtime but I've already gone back to my old games coz pvp like Ilum especially is efing impossible to play, seriously!
If it wasnt that hard for me to participate in battles on ilum which go beyond WZ sizes there wouldnt be much of a problem but atm YOU really have to work on this first instead of celebrating yourself!

Yes, pve content is fun but not my cup of tea! So if you wanna get your pvp people back FiX fps issues and implement some mechanics for a consistent pvp world which gives the average pvp player some meaning so that it goes beyond winning a single wz or killing some ppl on ilum for nothing...

And dont gimme all that crap!

There's enough on the internets to prove you've failed big time in some aspects of the game, BW!
I've seen vids of you guys telling the audience how great ilum is going to become and how epic its going to be when hundreds of players fighting each other!
So then finally after release it turns out its not even possible to do so coz the fps are soooo low that I feel ill after an hour playing on ilum because of this sick slideshow!
I really wonder, have you fing tested it at all? I seriously wanna know how big companies these days can throw products on the market with major parts of their product arent even working?

As long as you do not do nothing more than giving us ridiculous guides with info which every 10 year old knows no swtor for me sorry....

The game is very entertaining except the damn ****** hero engine.

Either you code it so people can actually PVP in Ilum without having 5 fps with high-end computers.

Or you lose subscribers to other MMORPGs.

You say you listen to your customers.

Yeah, we saw that from "Horrid FPS" thread. Instead of addressing the issue, you slapped us in the face and called us "low-end computers" and "5%".

That's completely different from what you're telling people in the video.

You do NOT listen to people with fps issues, instead you blame your customers.

That's what makes a company bad.

What's even more comical is how SO many members have asked for communication from the development team. We get absolutely nothing but instead we get a marketing video of them patting each other on the back for ripping EA off of 200+ million dollars.
