Gamasutra: The Burning of Star Wars - The Old Republic

Hmmm ... I searched on "gamasutra" prior to posting and didn't get any hits.

When I post 3rd party articles I usually mention the source in the title.

But go figure a former employee of EA bashing a gaming title from EA, How new and bold.

I think the problems that this game faces today are largely due to rushed release and then the lack of population and slow merging of servers. This is where the majority of people were lost. If those two things didn't happen I guarantee that a lot of those who quit would still be playing today...

Imagine if the group finder, customizable interface, server transfers and other features like that were available at the launch... Then the devs would be able to focus on story or PVP or end game in the past year... The way it turned out they spent the last year trying to catch up to what the game was supposed to be at launch...

Your better that his T. EA was listed as ONE of the companies he worked for with no time period as to when he worked at EA. You also, don't know, because he never stated, how he felt about working there in the article. He seems to have kept his feelings about EA directly (good or bad) out of the article. I will counter with this: Former employee's of EA must wrtie possitive artlcles about EA for the article to be valid! You do see the irony in your post now, right?

It does not really matter Urael.

You can show people all the posts, reviews, and anything related to This game having problems.

They will just say the person has something out for the game.

But you know Damn well, if the same writer said the game was perfect, they would have it posted on this site within minutes......

I'm not writing SWTOR off entirely -- not just yet. To be sure, BioWare could still hire someone who knows what they're doing and give them enough power to make the decisions that need to be made (P.S.: I'm available). But that window of opportunity is closing fast and there may not be enough leadership left at BioWare to act in time.
