You're either a troll or a deluded fanboi who will wonder where everyone is when you're one of the last playing 6 months from now.
Lol im typing on a phone at work.. grammar police lmao.

What stats do you have? Fleet numbers? Lmao what a joke. There's so many reasons fleet numbers would drop its comical. Is that the best you have? Haha wow dude you're sad. If the game is so dead why are you still here? Have you nothing better to do than post on forums for a dead game? No wonder you hate the game.. I would too if my life sucked that bad

Seriously though, its hilarious how many of you know the exact state of the population... you guys should really use your talents for something useful... like getting laid.

Game is fine.. you all still don't realize that a few thousand of you pvp nerds ragequitting doesn't affect the rest of us as much as you would hope or think. 2 mil subs less than 20k threads in this section in 2+ months = you don't matter.

You all look really cool talking about your next game while still posting on swtor forums.. way to stick it to the devs! Sigh... ****in pathetic
Hmmm... You don't seem to understand the law of averages.

Plus.. you are kind of a troll.

Now back to the bridge.

Wow ad hominem attacks still...logical fallacy number 200000000. As you can see, people have posted actual rough data collected by programs such as Xfire (which, btw, accurately recorded the death of other games that supposedly wouldn't die).

Also, we aren't basing it off of fleet pop alone, or ONE SERVER, which you would know if you took the time to read before posting. They're merging servers. That's ALWAYS a sign a game is dead. People HAVE quit the game in droves. Many servers have been talked about, and all of them report lower population in general.

I like the fact that you think saying I have no life affects me. You have no idea who I am mr. keyboard tough guy. But, then again, that's what people resort to when they have nothing logical to say. By all means, please continue showing that you are just a deluded fanboi who can't accept the fact that his precious game is an overhyped PoS.

If the game is so perfect why aren't you playing? None of us wanted the game to fail, we're just saying that it turned out to be an overhyped WoW clone piece of crap.

Now it seems more and more like a Ghostown.

What's going on?
well that’s what happens when you make terrible design decisions and take months to fix them...people don't have the patience to wait for BW to get off their dead asses and fix this game, i say this game will probably be free to play in a year if patch 1.2 doesn't deliver
If you want a game that works go back to WoW bro!

All I know is I play on Harbringer, the unofficial Oceanic server: when the aussie one opens up, Harbringer will die. A heavy server will go to light over night, mark my words.

This will have a domino effect, server pop dies then everyone else will bail, move to a populated NA server, or just unsub.

Frankly, while 1-49 TOR is the best I have seen in an MMO, generally. However on the 2nd+ play through its not so fun. I have leveled 4x 50s now and I just can't be bothered no more since leveling is now predictable, hyper linear, and an out right snoozefest.

So I focus on one char, but I have hit a brick wall....I log on for 2 PvP dailies and that's it, day done. I would join a guild but hey....most them are LEAVING for Aussie server, so why bother? But w/e, I was in a guild....they all quit and or went back to other games...I am the last one left here out of 20+ who originally hopped on board.

This game still has many play it, and I can't argue that point. But what IS happening is that the pops are slowly but surely declining. It's easily seen. When other multi player titles release, it will drop even more. And when GW2 enters the ring....good night TOR.

Now waiting on 1.2, which will be the deciding factor for me. If it is lack luster like all the other patches, well....one less player soon.

It boggles my mind that people don't play for fun. My server and ques are good, almost an instant warzone pop and I never have to wait more than a few minutes. To the above guy with 4 level 50s. This game has been out for what, 2 and a half months and you've leveled 4 50's? And you wonder why you have issues.

I don't see the game dying. I am still having fun along with my friends and people on my server.

I play for fun.

Its not fun to watch slideshow warzones while my character is running in place with a dead connection.

So there it is. I wanted this to be a great game. Sadly its a sterile buggy mess with some great-on-paper but poorly executed concepts.

And kind of a disgusting amount of recycled assets. Copy pastaed spaceports anyone?

rift/war/aoc all had their dedicated fanbois too saying the pop wasn't dying, that xfire was wrong, that the pop was there it was just spread out more now etc etc etc.

we all know how well that worked out for them

if bw suck it up and act now to address the issue rather than burying their heads in the sand to protect their egos and the EA share price then they could still save it:

merge servers
fix ilum
add more wz's, 3 maps is pathetic by anyone's standards.

I love the game personally. However, I am not rushing to 50 and I am trying out all of the different play styles. I found out long ago that the leveling in an MMO is the most enjoyables aspect to me because "end game content" is not at all the place where you spend your most time. It "runs out" quickly. Why rush to the end? I never have figured that out.

But, this guy is correct. Due to the little patience of the "l33t" masses, BW better focus on some of the things they decided to delay very quickly. I LOVE THE GAME AND HOPE THEY CAN DO SOMETHING TO BRING BACK the impatient players as well. I want to see it succeed. I love where it's going right now.
