I'm looking more at well over 2 million plus with the release in Asia Pacific soon.

Not to mention more and more people are picking it up every day.

Maybe its because some people play in quiet hours !!

If only by meaning bioware fixes it then i hope you're right. other wise they are only making money off of a poorly made game

If you look at the OP, most servers were heavy last night.

There were a lot of people playing.

My fist thought was; people abandoning their low-pop servers and rerolling somewhere.

There were only about 8 Light servers last night out of around 120 servers total. The majority (or close to) of the servers were Heavy.

Rerolling could account for some of it, but the fact is there were a lot of people online.

It's a good game, so I can see why.

BW does need to fix quite a few issues before I'll say it's a great game, but they are working on it.

More and more every day? What about those that will be dropping the game? Because I think this time around, it's going to be significant number doing just that. There are only a couple of days left until those that subbed from the start have to make a decision on whether to pay for a second time. I know plenty that have decided against it (myself included).

In terms of Asia Pacific, I don't think it's going to be as big as you think. Most people from those regions that wanted to play, are already playing.

In terms of the server labels, they cannot be trusted. It's common in MMOs for developers to adjust the labels so that a smaller number would trigger a larger label. This is done when population is falling and the devs want to disguise it from the people that are actually playing.

I wouldn't base your whole argument on those server labels. I know for a fact that the server I play on (Frostclaw EU) is dwindling in numbers yet the label still shows as heavy.
Space, is big. Really big. You just won't believe how vastly hugely mindbogglingly big it is. I mean you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist, but that's just peanuts to space...

The MAJORITY is NOT heavy, do you work for bioware or just a biodrone?

I was wondering that also. Was funny when I asked her why her only 2 friends were bioware employees she dropped them and added 2 different friends.
If this game is so great then why do so many people that love the game spend all their time in the forums?

Can we please just have our pre-KotFE SWTOR MMORPG back?
