How friggin' sad is that?
What multiplayer, you mean co-op?Nice try though.

The answer to OP's question is Yes, again, because the game is good and i enjoy playing it, it's Star Wars and it's awesome.

Because the PvP in this game is so awesome! Illum worked out great~


I wasn't going to play D3 but then I played TOR and I realized I took Blizzard for granted. they make much better games then Bioware.

SWTOR needs less movie, more game.
You do realize, of course, that you're attempting to compare a 3PS to an MMO? That is literally apple to an orange...

I take it you didn't play WoW when it was only 3 months old? TOR at 3 months old is five times the MMO WoW was at 3 months old. No, it doesn't make a difference the time difference. A 3-month-old MMO is a 3-month-old MMO.

And please stop trying to compare a 3PS to an MMO, please? There is no comparison, it's not even the same genre for gawd's sake...

No I will not. The Customer Service is atrocious, and to me, that is one of the most important things of an MMO.

No plain and simple, this game is a failure. Ea and Bioware DO NOT listen to what the community wants as a whole. The game will still be here just with tens of thousands less subscribers.

It would be an apple vs orange comparison, if TOR didn't play like Guild Wars 1 - an instanced co-op RPG with warzones/arenas. TOR doesn't play like an MMO, stop calling it one.

It would be more apt to call it orange vs tangerine - they're both orange citrus fruits.

Having a full group in exceedingly beneficial in this game. For FPs, Ops, and even leveling. There are xp bonuses, loot bonuses, etc to grouping for leveling quests. How is that only "co-op"? You can solo them, or you can do them in a group for better xp and loot.

What the hell more do you want?!

A non-static, far less instanced world that doesn't herd you along down a linear corridor.

Well, WoW had the same thing. I subscribed for all of 2 months, cancelled, and never looked back. Tens of thousands is really nothing, isn't it?

Right now, TOR has over 2 millions subs and growing. BioWare said 2 years before the game even launched that it wouldn't be for everyone. Despite that, they predicted millions of subs.

Looks like they were right on both counts.
