Nice little compilation, most of the stuff was about the things that are great with SWTOR. That's not saying everything is perfect, but keep it up guys. BioWare's doing a great job.

The only little wish I have which hasn't really been touched yet is the issue with so many low populated servers... Merging servers and opening free transfers isn't a sign of failure, it's a natural process with every MMO launch. Every single MMO, even the most successful ones, have done server merges so ensure the players have an enjoyable experience getting to play with others. I think that time is coming close for SWTOR as well.

Psst, that is why they are advertising.

Nice propaganda.

Advice ; fix the games problems instead of working on this advertising crap. You even hired in Jack from Roosterteeth lol... class act

The funny thing withy this video is that it's, no offence meant with this but the video is very "american". Playing on emotional reactions from ppl " with no script" ye sure... Jack surely had no script xD

I wonder how well this video will work in EU where emotions isn't incorporated in advertisment as naively as it is in USA. Again no offence but this is how it is. USA uses "make over" and "emotional mountains" to create hype and make ppl buy products. In Sweden actually you can't do that both out of issues with laws and ppl don't buy this type of propaganda.


Interesting thread u started

I think this sort of post is really poorly thought-out. I understand Bioware wanting to promote their game and advertise its various successes, but at this stage of things it really belongs on youtube and game review sites. To post it here without mitigating comment is to entirely miss the tone of the General Discussion forum.

People here are, at best, split 50/50 between those who are happily enjoying the game and those who are having a problem big enough to make them come here to complain instead of playing.

So to post something wholly celebratory here, without offering any comment to indicate an awareness of the incongruity or irony, is to come across as sort of out of touch. It makes the reader think that somehow bioware is completely unaware of the problems with the game. Or that they don't really care, like they're sort of saying "Ya ya, a lot of people seem to have problems with the game, but ignore that because everything is fantastic!"

It's similar here in that as a person who has ultimately quit the game because of what I feel are game-breaking bugs, my reaction to this sort of announcement is "Really? The game is a smashing success? Well I guess I better give up on whatever notions I had of it improving, since it's already so close to perfect that we're throwing a little party."

I'm not saying that's really the thought behind the action, obviously I have no way of knowing. But to me, that's how it seems.

You're dreaming, on my server there where barely 30 people on Nar Shaddaa. It's painfully little.

Well there are hardly 30 people on Nar Shaddaa on Jung Ma server. That doesn't mean the servers are empty, the sky is falling.
