Thats exactly it.

Even though they said they wouldnt raise the caps once it hit absolute maximum and players would have to sit in the qureue if it reached that and they also said mega servers were being worked on but were not part of phase 1 of the transfers and will take some time to finish testing.

But hey the server status are dropping so it has to be that, it cant be people quitting.
If this game is so great then why do so many people that love the game spend all their time in the forums?

How someone who pays to play a game (that's a questionable assumption) can spend so much time in a public arena trashing it.
Can we please just have our pre-KotFE SWTOR MMORPG back?

Now, as a handful of those 26 servers start trending down to STANDARD... "As much as you want to wish it were dying, sorry to say, it's not. Not even the magic genie could make that wish happen."


We don't wish for the game to die. We wish for EA to do whatever it takes to keep it from the death we see on the horizon.
And during the past 2 days they're rising again:

Maybe it was just last weeks sunny weather which made it drop to standard, and as it began raining, people started playing again . Shocker, but perhaps some players have lives .

Trashing it? Or making statements of observation supported by outside data about it?

TIme? If one has the ability to play a game 24x7, is that to be envied or pitied?

Always rises on the weekend... which would have been the past 2 days, right?

Probably just lowered the server caps for a few days.

It shows an increas for 1 say and that day being a SUN which is almost always the heaviest day of the week.

How many excuses are you going to keep making up until you realize its because the game that people are quitting.

The best one so far is that its the summer. Lets see 3 months ago the australian servers were full and now they barely hit standard.
If this game is so great then why do so many people that love the game spend all their time in the forums?

What's the motive? Wait ... let me guess ... it's to improve the game and somehow convince the community that the game and their best interests are in your best interests. Outside the rest of the water army who's buying it?

Rofl @ outside data. "Hey guys, google says star wars is dying so it must be true because it's the intrawebz"
