It's their motive disguised as a topic. For them inputs about the game merely serve as well-dressed smoke screens.
Can we please just have our pre-KotFE SWTOR MMORPG back?

I am sad to hear that war is shutting down, that was my first mmo and played it for a solid 3 yrs. Id have to admit that game had alot of flaws lol for instence x guarding tanks. That game got me into mmos and honestly I had the most fun when it ca.e to pvp. Pvp on that game was different loved it alot.

its got at least 5 more years left in it and can probably go on longer than that.

EA's last Quarterly report indicated that revenues for this game were profitable and increasing. I don't have the direct quote. It was greater than 10%, less than 20%. That's what's known as a good investment for anyone not familiar out there.

Game isn't in danger of dying.

Onto WAR.

Never had a game I was so excited about systematically break my heart one patch after another. Could have been great, ultimately a failure (to me, others have different experiences). RIP my White Lion, and his pet Crackers.

As a long time DAOC player I knew WAR was going to be a horrible disappointment, Mythic got lucky with DAOC or they had a very different crew that ran the game than made the game, There was Atlantis which I thought was just a nightmare, then they really started bastardiizing the game, when they made archers like wow hunters and totally killed the most unique archery mechanic in any mmo I left and never even considered going back. I played WAR for the free month and saw it was the same peoples bad ideas running the show.

I've heard directly from a guy who works in Imagineering that something is on the horizon for another SW MMO, but it's only in the planning stages. He said something else too was a possibility, but I won't mention what it was since he said it was something they would "like" to do fairly soon, but no guarantees.

People are also forgetting the surge of players this game will receive when the new movie comes out.
