it needs to be done ASAP. Something is holding this up, and its not the technology needed.

my server is entering crisis mode. Hutta had 4 people on it last night at 8:30pm EST, my self and other guild mate where half that number. And guess what the server was running at? You guessed it! Standard! YEAH!!! woooo


4 people on a starter world, 2 of them level 50's practicing PVP sure does mean Standard to me! haha.

Every week it gets worse.

Just cancelled my subscription because (among other reasons too) BW fails to see the dead servers as an issue,. The fact that Daniel Ericson said it's not a priority made me instant unsubscribe. It's no fun playing an online game by yourself, and even less fun to get told by the devs it's not a big deal. -_-

I absolutely love this game! But last night I cancelled my sub.

I've been playing on Trayus Academy since pre-launch, and have seen this server's decline. On the IMP fleet peak numbers have gone from 150+ to 20-30 on a good evening.

I recently rolled a Trooper, which I enjoyed playing a lot. Logged in two days ago and was ALONE on REP fleet around 11 in the evening.

Logged in mid-day around and was ALONE. "Peak"-numbers are 10-15. Not much MMO'ing going on.

The Galactic Trade Marked on the republic side is litterally EMPTY, and items are scarce at best on the imperial side.

I've never written a forum post before, but I would like to voice my opinon on this. BW should do what Trion did - offer free transfers like in Rift. Which is were I will be going back, incidentally.

Sadly, all of my guild mateys have quit or are quitting for the same reason.

L2R. transfers are coming soon.

I don't understand why people are still talking about this.

1- Because they are paying to play on a dead server, not like some ppl who are ROTFL cuz they are playing on the Fatman.
2- Because this kind of feature should be in the game since launch.
3- Because the two reasons above can piss anyone off.

The more you know? I will believe it when I see it!

I should add that I also wrote a ticket about mergers. I got an autoreply which clearly stated it is not going to happen.

Anyways: I will return when/if mergers are done. Playing now is, sadly, pointless.

Transfer is one thing and MERGE is another....We need a merge, not a transfer

I'd say I hate sounding like a broken record, but you will not get mergers. They will follow the Rift model, give everyone the opportunity to move to a designated server, then close the other server.

So keep crying for mergers. They are not coming.
