It's actually made by Funcom, EA has nothing to do with development. EA is just distributing the game here in the States.

European servers at 8:00 pm sunday

35 - light
52 - standard
1 - heavy
2 - full

We dont know how many playres is needed for a server to be standard. So where are all players with active accounts ?

On a side note 2 months ago there where no loght and half the servers where heavy.

Yes.. it is beginning to look like bioware did just give us 30 days and all this talk of it being used to bump up their numbers was just a steaming pile banthacrap made up by someone wearing a tin foil hat wanting an excuse to rebel against a big bad corporation.
Generally when corporations make reports for the investors, they also talk about what is currently happening. I wouldn't doubt they will also talk about the current subscription numbers at the time the report was made. It is what they did with the last report, they included the current subscription numbers at the time the report was made as well.
How do you measure the success of an MMO?

Those 52 standard and 35 light probably feel empty, or nearly empty.

Whoa whoa Whoa TSW is NOT a EA game. Funcom 100% owns and is 100% independent.

EA is shipping boxes. Something they are very good at.

the amount of subs it has does matter to me, because this game with 5000 subs will be the exact same game it is now with the same instances, same gear and same crappy space flight on rails until it finaly gets the plug pulled.

If its not pretty successful they wont have many content updates and if its not really successful it will have no updates or expansions with the quality voice over quests it has now.

Meanwhile, in Tera general chat -

"The sad thing is, arguing with fanbois on the forums was more entertaining than their 300 million dollar single player MMO from 2008"
