Here is a pic of my imp side legacy i took some time ago Imp side

Rep side is work in progress.
Link to pub side with same legacy name? Proof that pic is actually yours? Lol. See you want to complain about lack of story content and then not actually DO half of it... that's just, well, a cop out.

Im resubing as I said but its posts like yours that drive me bat crap crazy!

So some random people say they resubing
I personally know more that have already left the game and just waiting for sub to run out THAT WILL NOT POST

How does that fit your theory?

Im enjoying TOR now but make no mistake, this game is still bleeding accounts and no, everyone is not happy and content and YES the sub number (the real one, not the proped up one EA will present using trials and free passes and "come back to us" promotions once again (as they did with the false 1.3 number)) will drop for the 3 report period since release.

A thin majority of posters saying they will stay outta what? 35 posts? Does NOT make a trend. Not even remotely.
In regards to lessening F2P and Preferred restrictions
In GAMING, as in LIFE,
You get what you pay for
No game restriction is so dire that $15.00/month will not eliminate it

Well, since you asked. 6 month subscriber. Not sure how much time is left but probably about what op said.

I will be resubbing for another 6 snd would probably do 1 yr if it was offered and dropped price a little per month. Pretty happy with game at this point. After server transfers things picking up nicely.

How very scientific of you, your post is full of guestimates, fake observations, conjecture, and things that smell like they were pulled from somewhere dark and damp. There are numerous actual threads measuring number of concurrent users with REAL statistical methodologies behind them. There are third party tracking sights that agree. Since 1.3 the number of concurrent users has risen sharply, nearly doubled.

Now you can say "those are just trial accounts blah blah blah" but whatever man, because accounts are accounts and to users the only thing accounts should mean is "more people to play with."

You shouldn't care how much people are paying for their account unless
1. You're an EA investor
2. The number of subs drops below 500k (Which all ACTUAL data we have significantly disproves.)

And to suggest that a growing number of trial accounts doesn't directly correlate to new blood being pushed into the game well, that's just silly.

I don't know a SINGLE person that's quit since 1.2, in fact one of my friends just bought the game after really enjoying the trial and another of my friends resubbed with 1.3 bringing RWZ so how about that for some anecdotal evidence lol

Did you play the GW2 beta?

Seriously, GW2 is a terrible game with virtually NOTHING to do. It has maybe 1/5 the content of SWTOR and no endgame. People will get bored with it after 2-3 weeks TOPS when there will be literally NOTHING to do.
That's your point of view all player's ain't like you.

"And you're expecting to get more from a FREE TO PLAY GAME" Free to play = fail game ?

You're talking about the game as if you allready did all the content xD

I'm staying. I love the game and the sub price is such a non-issue for me. It's less than the cost of a matinee and a bag of candy and I get hours more enjoyment out of it. If I stop playing for a while, I know I'll be back.

My sub runs out in less than a month. So I'm trying to finish two characters I have in the 40s and then I'm off to Guild Wars 2.

No one has been able to recreate the addict like aura of WoW. But even it had the same sort of "what new content are we getting?" questions from people. There were long stretches where top raiding guilds were falling apart because people were bored. But people just...stayed. And it was no more engaging than SWTOR is. (As an aside, MC, BWL...all of Vanilla WoW were pre Youtube boom where it was easy to watch a fight and replicate it. If we had then what we had now even all of that would have been blown through in record time.)

Why do people act like this is unique to Bioware/EA? Why do they act like SWTOR failed somehow? Its a MMO problem in general. People eat up content faster than they can create it. Period. No MMO has EVER cracked that nut, and the chances are good they never will.

If you're tired of SWTOR...that's to be expected. It is extremely odd to find something that will hold someone's rapt attention for 6 months. The first MMO's did...then they didn't. Then WoW introduced crack to our veins...but no one has been able to equal that. I'm not disappointed SWTOR didn't, and I am resubbing because I can still find things to do in this game. But its not like this is the only game I will be playing.
