You can have the most beautiful game in the world but if it runs like **** who would play it?

I feel that it is long over-due that they sit down, and think seriously on how to fix some of those problems the engine is causing them and how to fix it. If they honestly don't know how to overcome the problem, then ask for outside help. It's better to set aside their pride then watch the game continue to be bogged down with technical problems

Doesn't look like it. When an announcement spends 3 lines expressing how uber fun a new difficulty is on a 9 month old Operation with no mention of any other content in that patch...you know you're being put on a content diet.

Why do people say this? They said that when TSW came out... and GW2... people leave because they dislike this game... but it's silly to think that people playing this game are just waiting for the next great thing to come along. I'd say most new MMO's that come out will perhaps be played by that "restless minority". A small portion of those stay at the new game... but some will also come back while the majority of those people will continue to be restless because no game is going to cater to what they're looking for.

They don't understand that some people ONLY play this game for pvp.

Seeing how this game is focused on PvE and ESO being the same, a huge dent to SWTOR fanbase will happen when ESO comes out. IT will happen if Bioware continues the way they treat their subscribers.

I would phrase this less aggressively, myself, but I do agree with the sentiment. I can't play with maxed settings, as is. I should be able to. I can crank up games that are several magnitudes more technically demanding than SW:TOR. But I still cannot turn shadows or even, mind-bogglingly, nameplates on without reducing the client to a slideshow at best.

Granted, they fixed that memory leak that had been plaguing the game since closed beta, but on the whole, my load times and such have actively become worse as the game has progressed. I can't enjoy the game if I'm sitting in a loading screen or looking at a version of the game as drawn by my 5 year-old brother-in-law.

^^Pretty much this. Ive played this game since early access and frankly i'm tired of hearing what's planned for the future...only to see the same ole stuff in every patch aka tons of cartel updates and little if any actual content (or drastically needed pvp fixes/reworkings) for subs. Each and every patch has made me feel like i'm getting less and less for my $15. I pay for an "expansion" and get all of 1 new planet (that has a terrible layout and mediocre story at best) a few new dailies and a bunch of recycled content in the form of fp's/ops. Oh sorry that's right there was 1 new op. Yipee.

It's so unfortunate too, because like many of us i waited with great anticipation 6 long years for this game. I would say that unless things drastically improve for the better by FF xiv launch in august im done...but that would be silly. Nothing has improved since launch (with the exception of legacy rewards, which are still quite weak), so why would anyone expect it to start now? I keep waiting and waiting for 'the next patch' as i'm so often told to do...only to get a bunch of cash shop updates and little else. Looking forward to final fantasy, where the devs care so much about subscribers getting value out of their $15 they went to the trouble to rebuild their game, instead of going the cash shop route like some companies do...

To sum it up...quit telling me what you're gonna do, like u have been since december '11 and actually show me something. Just once make me feel like u actually give a damn about the $15 i pay u ever month. Just one time...one time make me think my subscription money matters to u equally as much as some kid using his mom's cc to buy more coins does!

2.4 is just way too long for me. I am a PvP player first, and waiting until late august or mid september for new content is just not my cup of tea.

I'm moving on.
On the Internet, you can be anything you want. It is strange so many people choose to be stupid.
