I am sorry to say but games that start to fall behind go free to play and that is where this one is going to be eventually.
I predict in 9-12 months if they don't get there **** straight you will see a very different number of subs. I cancelled and purchased that CoE. I am going to let the cash up front bite me for now, if it gets any better I may be back.
For anyone that thinks this game is going to have 10 million customers or even break 900k after 6 months needs to look at what it on the horizon coming out. SWToR has peaked now the back slide starts because they didn't have everything together at the begging.
And before you go and say WoW was terrible when it came out, I know I was there but there was different types of gamers than, now people are not so kind as to wait and let alone on an EA game considering their track record.
