My prediction is around the same 1.7 to 2 mil mark. Alot of people playing now will have left (already seeing that though their subs are still active), but new people will come and try, then do the same.

Of course, I'm sure he would lie to the SEC right?

There is a rumor out that he fudged those numbers by the way. Supposedly the reason he won't be at EA anymore. Just saying....

Out of those 2 million copies, 1.7 million became active subscriptions. I doubt any mmo before has had that kind of initial retention. I also don't think anyone expected the full 2 million copies turning into active subs. Not everyone is going to like the game, ever. So they went from 0 subscribers to 1.7 million subscribers, and as of feb 1st that number is growing. WoW probably lost a bigger percentage during its first few months than TOR did, and that went to hell, right?

Supposedly the reason he won't be at EA anymore. Just saying.... The CFO doesn't "fudge" or "touch" numbers. He just signs off on the numbers prepared by the internal finance team and prepared by the indepdent auditors, because the SEC specifically requires that the CFO certifies the 10-Q. Also, the CFO of EA left to a higher paying job (with more growth potential to potentially take the head CEO job), given that CFO position is often a "dead-end" (i.e., you don't become CEO). And it was the CEO who provided the subsscription numbers. The CEO who, as of today, is still the CEO of EA.

The horrible truth is; The game world is staying the same size, but less people are in it. If you're going to make a statement like this followed by your point you should back it up also you know.
