This game was marketed as a MMO right?

Do you know what a MMO is?

We are concerned because this MMO is missing the MM part. Other than a small window of 2 to 4 hours a day, most servers are completely barren.
Hokay, look, there are a lot of LIGHT servers. I know it's frustrating to be on one. Keeping tabs on it, and even looking at TORstatus.net, it's about 30% of servers.

That's not "majority"....

Your hyperbole is NOT helping your case. Let the LIGHT servers speak for themselves.

If GW2 can have transfers already in beta why couldnt SWTOR have them? Bioware knew server pops will drop ( i hope they did) so if they had transfers i am sure MANY people wouldnt have left.

I already unsubbed 2 weeks ago, i uninstalled the game few days ago even with free 30 days i will not play anymore. I am sick of a empty server with pvp queues up to a hour, where its impossible to get a FP going let along Ops. And why should i reroll and invest more time when Bioware is at fault?

All i can say, if we had transfers or at least merges i would still be playing and i am sure many people are in the same situation as me.
GW2 isnt out yet #1 and #2 it takes 1600 "gems" to transfer. Gems cost rl money.

Look, I see you here, spending the entire day pouncing on any post you can to try and be the main source for trying to smash opinions that you do not like but honestly, if there was no problem, why are you here 12 hours a day spamming the forum instead of playing the game?

My server says "standard" almost every time I log on but when I go to the spacestation and spam for a group there is maybe 2 other people at best who want to try a run. The server saying average or light is not the issue, having enough of a population to put together a run "IS" the problem.

I look at the server listing all the time and if "standard" means for them what it means for my server then yes, they have way, way too many servers open.
No matter how hard you try, you can't beat time.

You make it sound like once you unsub that you cannot resub. People who like the game but disliked being on a low pop server can, and very likely will, resub and move their characters to other servers so they can continue playing a game they like in a server population level that is comfortable for them.
And your argument sounds like it comes from someone with none to very little mmo experience, sure people can resub who have unsubbed, but generaly players do not do that. Mmos that fail in the first year, stay failed. actualy once an mmo starts to really lose alot of subs any time in its life they never recover.

I think you are judging everyone by people you see on the forums. Not everyone is so militant.

Funny, are we reading the same site? Looks the like the light servers for the past two weeks have been from 50-80% light. That's for both Europe and NA.

Not true. Last night at 8pm eastern there were 65 standard 2 heavy and 1 very heavy. Thats way more than 50% standard or better. You cant look at euro servers when everyone is at work over there. A lot only play on the weekends so you cant just look once and say ok this is how it is all the time.

Are you just looking at off-peak or what? There isn't a game in existence that isn't light during off-peak hours.

It's not like we didn't already pay for the past 6 months of beta....
It's ignorance like this that makes me ponder about the children we entrust our world's future in...

Standard is very deceiving, and I wouldn't be surprised if it's range for population level is broader than the rest of the labels. I know this, because I am on a standard server, and it feels like a ghost town throughout the day, into the late evening. So don't think for a second that being on a standard server is okay in all cases, because it isn't. I truly feel for those on light servers, it must be so aggravating to rarely if ever find a group for normal and hard FPs, and to wait hours for a WZ que .

Now Bioware, hurry the hell up with server transfer implementation.
