EA/Bioware needs to realize they need to get rid of servers, not offer free limited transfers and then charge for any other kind of transfer. They will keep on bleeding subscriptions if you do not fix the populations on their servers asap. I highly highly doubt they would lose as many people because they lost their characters name in a merge, then they are with not merging the servers. Bioware has lost nearly half of the people who have bought this game in 6 months, that isn't a good trend, they are bleeding subscriptions.
How do you measure the success of an MMO? http://www.arena.net/blog/is-it-fun-...asures-success

"The company also expects to release more expansion content for �Star Wars� this year � including two expansion packs in the current quarter." Perhaps Wall Street speak for "patch 1.3 and 1.4"?

What I think is that 1.3 million subs is still pretty amazing. SWTOR has easily recouped its development costs, and all money now goes to operation and profit.

But...they said subs were fine...it was just that we all weren't online at like the exact same time any more...

Others have already pointed this out, but the 38 countries aren't included in this financial report. Duh.

This is before that launch and I agree, merges should come in the next few months, they will close them once people transfer from the dead servers, probably won't tell anyone though and how have they lost half? 1.7 to 1.3 mill is not half.

Alot of kool aid drinkers in this post I see. The game is dead and will be under a million subs within 3 more months. This is turning out to be the biggest flop in mmo history for the kind of money that poured into making it. It should have been so much more.
