It's not bleeding dude. The highest percent of th 25% were people with free trials that expired. Be smart next time.

I think it's reasonable to expect that active subs will fall below 1 million by the end of June given the track record so far and the competition coming. And exactly what do we have to look forward to? What new content is on the way? Any news from BW on that front?
you my friend are right and i by the time june rolls around it will be hovering at around 900k approximentaly

With 1.2, I could see that.
nah closer to 135k in april 4500 per day X 30 days...

GW2 is getting ****loads of bad reviews as far as I can see. D3 isnt really an mmo. The future forecast of SWTOR is very positive indeed. At least alot better than for any other mmos out there including wow.

When the LFG tool comes and more feautres come including server merges and stuff I see this game having around 1.5-2 mill subs easily.

Why ask for new content? You expect this game to release content 3 times faster than other mmos?

I must say I AM A STAR WARS FANBOY!

But.......

Even I have started to believe that something is very wrong with this game. 2 or 3 major multiplaying guilds have left the game from my server since/during 1.2 and now my guild folded tonight. We'd completed all things the game had to offer and the majority just decided to walk It's s a sad day but it seems my time in SWTOR is done.

It's not bleeding?

But have gone backwards and still have counted the 30 days free people got even though they have cancelled.

Yeh, that makes total sense.

Be smart next time

Hmmm that's not so bad then. Make sure the investors get this.

Thank you Tiaa. Keep up the good work!
