You know I really enjoy this game and I really don't like to give more ammunition to certain flamestarters that we had a over a couple weeks but as much as it does pain me to say it, I have seen a bit drop in population of the Harbinger since a certain other a game that shall not me named, I think most in part because of the lack of substantial content updates

I am content at the moment, but I understand why some people are frustrated right now and maybe leaving for greener pastures. Bioware needs to give out more of its content in a shorter time period, even if that means releasing in smaller chunks at a time. This game certainly isn't in maintenance mode like others but they need to get out their content more quickly to keep more people entertained.

While I did really like that Bioware was adding more content to the official housing package that included, I can't really say I wasn't disappointed that I would no longer going to be able to access that feature by mid June and instead in August, when my current subscription ends and I have to go back to college.

While I'm not typically a raider, it did really saddens me to see that even some people that would have normally defended Bioware frankly very frustrated that Bioware hasn't put out a new raid yet with no mention of a new raid in sight and I really can't blame them.

PVP doesn't need any new content because all they need to have is something to kill.

Spoiler


I play fairly often and while I do really enjoy huttball, including the new map, I really think that Bioware needs to come up with some new objective based PVP maps, not just some deathmatch PVP and one huttball map. I don't speak for anyone aside from myself but I don't really enjoy arenas that much.

That made no sense at all.

Also, I'm not complaining but merely objectively pointing out that which is absolutely FACTUAL.

Certain content was released within a certain time frame in 2013... On the other hand, certain kind of content was not released within a certain time frame in 2014.

^^ Please explain how the above is incorrect or - in your own words - "complaining", since you had the chance to do so but chose not to.

Also, screw WoW. They're probably the 'worst' MMO producer out there right now. They released their last patch in September of 2013 and haven't released ANYTHING ELSE OF ANY KIND since then and have said that they won't be releasing ANYTHING ELSE OF ANY KIND until a couple of months before their winter-release of their next expansion.
I'll ignore whatever you have to say about other MMO's, seeing that you have this uncanny ability to see the absolute worse in them all, except in TOR.

Wildstar is another case in point it would seem, judging from your post history.

Regardless, my point remains: Latest expansion for WoW is named, priced and dated for the most part. Can the same be said for TOR? Absolutely not.

Quote:
In short, they're making their players go a full year without any new content of any kind whatsoever. Nothing. At all. And that's at 'least' a year.

Compared to WoW, TOR is a frickin content-releasing machine.
More like "was", if 2014 is supposed to be the shape of things to come. Again, 2013 was a fairly solid year; 2014? Disappointing to say the least.

Quote:
Also, you're being ridiculous when you suggest that BW is hedging its bets regarding content release. Ridiculous. As in, not worth taking seriously.

I say this so that you can maybe dial back the rhetoric and maybe not be written off as a Chicken Little.
I care little for labels.

Yeah. And that sure went smoothly, eh? I don't blame them for waiting. This community has a way of distorting facts over time. If the big update isn't dropping until December or so, I wouldn't put out details until after the summer update (GSH). It would only cause confusion and disappointment to do it that way.

This thread is a prime example of why the Dev have learned to keep their cards close to the vest.

Yes there is a slight dip in the Summer months. However I've noticed that the JC population feels much lighter than the same time last year. Where there would normally be three solidly populated Fleet instances around 6-7pm Eastern, now there's two. Sometimes a lightly populated (9-50) 3rd. A similar observation can be made on the starter worlds. DK had one instance of 60 people in the mornings over the weekend where last year there would be at least two with well over 100 each.

Actually this thread to me, is a prime example of why they should be more forthcoming with information. I haven't logged into SWtOR in almost two weeks cause it is quite boring and I see nothing of value on the horizon to keep me playing. Perhaps if I had more clarity on what was to come I'd be more inclined to want to play.
I'll tell you what, then. Why don't you call me some time when you have no class?

Disagree. Altaholics need something to slow them down a little, it makes the addiction easier to resist.
