Stopped by today to see if there is any news about server transfers and got the same answer from 5 months ago, which is *shrug*.

Thing is, I'm now losing interest in being uninterested. Started playing other games and nearly forgot to come check in.


you asked for a server transfer in december? when the servers were so clogged that you couldnt log in for hours on end????

I came from the mmorpg, "lord of the rings online"; where I and my guildies were together for about 5 years, I believe. I convinced about 95% of my guild to move games to swtor. Every single one of them loved the game, but slowly people quit or lowered their time online. My guild is down to 1-4 people online now a days.

Not long after release my "heavy" server went from FULL, to light; and has sat with the light statue from then on. A very busy day will have 100 people upon the fleet. My account's subscription ran out yesterday; I added another 3 months. Toss a fan who supports you a bone Bioware, merge the small servers so my friends and many other can return.

They are bored of paying to play, as they say "A barren single player game"; honestly I feel the same at times....

Server merges please?

I want all this in the future so please, please YOU continue paying to BW/EA so some of us who are leaving can enjoy these features in the future.

I want this game to have 10M subscribers! In a year and a half there will be 10M+1 (with me aboard).

Regards!
I hope your sarcastic you dont encourage others to play a game you hate yourself, your rewarding companys whom rushed released for money and hurting the industry not helping it. The game cant get that because it is basically to much like wow but far worse than wow for it is way behind wow people can go back to wow and still play even after long breaks, SWTOR doesnt have that pull and I am sorry to tell everyone this but it is the overall game design for it to ever work they would have to take down the game to remake it.

I will keep my sub up. Hopefully they will use that money to create something nice in the near future.

FireFall looks good for a future based mmo with fps properties and new play styles.

My sub is no longer active, purely because of my server being totally empty. Nobody to do flashpoints with or to join for an operation. No tools to find players for the PvE content.

PvP takes far too long to play and it's always the same Imp group that trumps us, usually outnumbered too.

The graphics engine is highly unoptimized and poorly constructed. Lightsaber combat wasn't what Bioware promised it would be, and there's very little difference between players since everyone uses that same animation frame male/female.

Because its a new game, wows been out for how many freaking years? that much time to fix issues, improve on others and so on?

Posters like this really make me wonder if CS is still that hard to find...
