Who else is having a great time playing this game?

It's a good game. But server transfers must be implemented ASAP. The game is fun, but it's not fun if there's no one else to play with. And unfortunately many people have left the game, stranding a lot of people who don't want to play on dead or dying servers. Wound in the Force is in pretty rough shape and it's not the worst of the lot by far. The people that are left need to be able to migrate to populated areas. Honestly, if my choice is between re-rolling on a populated server and abandoning the guys I've spent 6 months building, or quitting, I'll quit.

-WZ ques pop faster with more populated servers
-LFG tools work better with more populated servers
-Economy is better with more populated servers

Take care of the server transfers and it may go along way to stop the bleeding. As I've said, the game itself is fun and I enjoy it. The MANAGEMENT of the game has been lacking:

-it started out buggy as the day is long (no credit for WZ wins 1/3 of the time, wth was THAT all about?)
-Ilum: what a humiliating failure THAT was for whoever pulled the trigger on it.
-no server transfer option (and I believe this has cost them more subscriptions than anything else)
-targeting in this game is HORRIBLE HORRIBLE HORRIBLE and needs to be fixed ASAP.
-the Bioware modified version of the Hero engine: not good.

What's good about the game?

Leveling: FUN
WZs: FUN
Flashpoints: FUN
Ops: FUN

PvP: Very balanced pre 1.2. Currently still fairly balanced with a few ACs on the good side of balance that could use a little tweaking but not a lot. Does SWTOR really need ranked WZs? Many would say yes, I don't really think so but I'll likely still participate in them. The WZs are entertaining IMO. The lack of World PvP is stinky; hopefully they'll resurrect Ilum in the near future and make it fun this time.

PvE: 3 modes for operations so most can experience the end game. Normal and hard mode flashpoints. Daily quests. Datacrons. World Events. And they've already patched in new content in 1.2 just a few months after launch. I have no real complaints about the PvE content in this game (although targeting is an issue and needs to be looked at.)

It's a good game. Just:

1) Stop the bleeding and get server xfers going ASAP
2) Fix the targeting
3) Tweak a few AC's in PvP to tighten up the balance
4) Keep throwing out new content every 4-6 months

Take care of these issues and the game will keep a steady population, and may even begin to increase some. I don't know if SWTOR will ever see 1.7 million again, but hopefully they'll keep a million or so. They needed 500,000 for the game to turn a profit I read.

Other things they could do:

-Appearance customization (hairstyles, scars, tattoos)
-Dual spec
-Wardrobe options

No, it's like you're playing the same game. In fact, you are. You, however, like it for some odd reason. That's good.

I'm enjoying this game. I'm looking forward to future patches and content releases

Overall fairly good post.

Yup, loving this game - the only one that was and still is able to pull me out of GW1 for any length of time. Got the six month sub and will renew come September. I certainly hope to be playing this game at least as long as the 7 years I spent in GW1.

With needed things such as merges and X Server LFG, this my MMO of chioce. I have no intentions of unsubbing or quitting for any reason. Love it.

I am having a blast. I have a level 50 Merc/50 Assassin/32 Mara and a 19 sniper.

What kind of good work are they doing exactly? Almost every Tuesday something manages to bug out, and then they have to go fix it.

Half of the bugs they promise to fix aren't fixed, and then in patch notes they say they fix it, but they don't?

Rated WZ's will come in 1.2. NOPE! OH don't worry we will release them before 1.3; they haven't even been mentioned yet. But don't worry because we are coming out with great things like legacy, where you can send tons of credits on useless ****.

Yeah bioware keep up the good work.

I enjoy it a lot. but then again I have very limited play time.

Still would like to see a deeper space combat/exploration.
Also, Am I the only one who would love to see vehicle content it would be perfect for Stars Wars, and something that would be cool for both PVP and PVE, Just saying.

I'm having heaps of fun. Had to take a few month's break after my initial binge-playing around launch-time, but now I'm back, eager to finally get one character or the other to 50.

And whoever is responsible for the Smuggler storyline and dialogues... THANK YOU! <3

And with the quote is why X server and merges are needed. People say only xyz amount of people are on but who really knows unless you have a character logged into each planet.

Snapple Fact, your fleet may have five people on it BUT a low level planet may have more... I cant stress X Server implementation any more. Relying ob the masses to satisfy each others needs is foolish. Some may want to PvP all day and some may want to run Black Talon 20 times in a row. Same server reliance is dumb.
