EA shareholders meeting: over/under 300k subs?

I don't have data to dispute it. You don't have data that can 100% disprove that there aren't 1mil subs right now. You have a formula that could be accurate within a window of possible margin of error...

And OFC I would want to see a huge sub number like 1.3+mil. I like this game, even with it's (imo) minor flaws, and I want it to succeed. I submit bug reports and post suggestions in the Suggestion box; which I feel is more useful to BW than ****posting in GD along the lines of "EA/BW state F2P is coming to TOR. Your thoughts?"

lol, I still remember eveyone saying how Bioware was down below 500k or something then "oops" still had 1.3 million subs. Now theyre saying the same thing ... saying its lost even more subs than it lost last time in the same amount of time, even though the gameplay has improved tenfold since 1.3 and has actually been attracting new players.

Oh and lol at those talking like the 6 month subs are going to be incredibly significant number... you know ... because there are sooooo many people out there who'd actually shell out approximately $90 sub + $60 box price in the same month for an unproven MMO. Even those that do are obviously much more dedicated fans then any of the 1 and 3 month subbers, thus much less likely to unsub specially now that the game is much better.

It's not a conspiracy theory, it's an observation. This is what I believe is a perfect storm of a cluster $?&$ for people to complain. I don't subscribe to conspiracy theories. This is a simple observation from reading.

And if you don't think a large portion of people would LOVE to see this game fail, you are delusional. Read any other site (outside these forums) and you see the same exact backlash.

Bioware themselves talked about it at release.

I think 10 is shooting far too low. I was doing random HMs with two guys who were trolling GD while they waited for a group finder pop. I mean, c'mon, it's that common of an activity. Swtor forums are like STV in vanilla WoW: it's where you go to start **** for no reason to waste a few hours.

No I paid the 15 bucks to try out the changes. I didnt pay just to post on the forums. Read what I said before you think.

Your the target Bioware audience. You will read anything and take from it what you want too without actually understanding what is said.

People would have paid for the 6 month sub for a variety of reasons. One of them is the hope that the game is good (and we humans thrive on misplaced hope!). One is to get the $3/month discount. Another is because they managed to play the game prior to release and liked what they saw (and the first 15-30 levels are amazing, right?).

Lots of reasons for 6 month subs. I doubt it's a huge number... but then again it could be a large percentage of the number they reported in March and another large percentage of the number they report this month. We won't know until they report a number that covers the period after mid-August.

So this must be a typo then...

the forums are for players to give feedback, and communicate with the community and for the devs to give information, not for trolls to make every thread a misery and try to drive away other players . your logic is crazy, of course a fan of swtor would use the swtor forums, do you think if i use a forum that means i have to hate the product of the forum i'm using??? you have no soncept of what a forum is for then

also do you think, i wake up switch swtor on, play, then go to bed, wake up switch swtor on play then go to bed.

there are many activity's my day consists of, and finding time to come to the forum is not a problem, but it doesn't stop me enjoying the game. i'm sure i have racked up quite a number of posts on the forums, but also i have 3 level 50s and a level 39.

wow look at that i can use the forums and play swtor, its not a choose one or the other thing for me and i still have time for my family and work. maybe hating is more time consuming than enjoying that what you do and enjoying life

I think you would be surprised how many bought the 6 month sub. BioWare had a lot of fans who really enjoyed thier games, thus had a lot of faith in them to deliver. However, that may not be the case now. DA2, ME3 ending and now TOR....I donot think they enjoy that large fan base devotion like they use to.

You are reading too much in there. Emeda also said he/she came back with each content patch in hopes things had got better. The real reason she/he resubbed. Not to troll the forums. Stop with the personal attacks.
