If there are alot of unsatisfied customers... that useually means a poor product. So yes, please keep blaming the customers as to why the game cannot maintain subscriptions.
It is always the mode de jure for the BW apoplogist to blame the CUSTOMER and not the developer.

Quick fanboiz assemble!

No. You couldn't say that about Rayla. I've seen her post many times trying to support Bioware. Communication is definitely lacking. And I agree with OP, give us something, anything... even if it's just a hello we are here.

It would be easier to just start up a forum and charge $15/mo for people to sign in and gripe, fuss, cry, and crab to their heart's content about what a crappy forum it is. Save the bother of making and supporting a game.

What you need to say is "I don't like anything but raids, I need another one to clear in a week so I can go back to complaining that everything's too easy."
1. The HK-51 droid , so called new content, was actually installed ... in game waaaay back in beta. They removed it, its not truely new content.

2. NiM of a raid that players have been farming for 3 months is not new content. Its content that players have been farming for the last 3 months. I dont care if they have 1 million more hitpoints and dish out 2k more damage a swing and they add 1 new mechanic. Its still the same scenery, still the same bosses and still the same kills.

3. Who said anything about just adding raids. The game needs to do this yes but they need to add a ton more content that is not raids and not flashpoints and not warzones. We need more things to do. Side games, mini games, better customization, ship customization, more story, more leveling planets so you can level an alt an entirely different route...and god forbid real space... anything that is not what we already have

But but, Swtor was the Chosen One! SWTOR was supposed to destroy Blizzard, not join them! Bring balance to the Gaming Industry, not leave it in darkness!!!

QFT.

I hate making comparisons to Blizzard, I really do, but in this case it's not even a comparison to the game, just the way they interact with the community... if you were to go to mmo-champion.com or any other "blue" tracker site, you would be able to see the devs and community team actively partaking in discussions on their forums... even if it's nothing more then "hey I don't want to sidetrack the thread just letting you guys know we are reading and taking feedback".

I mean there's really no reason Bioware couldn't do the same, I refuse to believe they are spending every waking hour putting in code, and even so they should still be able to do more than dish out a carefully construed weekly Q&A. Even if you disagree with us, tell us. I mean we aren't asking for them to tell us their secrets, just get involved.

I've been a pretty big fan of the game, but I too feel like things stalled somewhere and communication has dropped. Kind of disheartening really.
