  1. Well if you can't raid, or get mail like I've heard talked about in this thread....then it will be pay to win. Free players won't be able to get the mats needed to augment gear, etc.
  2. So shouldn't the subscription cost drop by 50%? I really think they shouldn't do F2P and charge everyone $5 or even $7.50 a month. But in the end $15 will feel like too much when in the back of your mind you know all these idiots running around aren't paying a dime.
  3. OK so this goes into effect in the fall, let's say October. That's 10 months of subs for me $150. I'll get 1,500 cartel coins. Will this allow me to play high end content and PvP for free using my amassed coins? I'm not willing to pay $15 for half my current content either. I'm going to feel like I'm paying for the F2P people to play. I'll switch to F2P day one. I keep my coins right? PS. Tuesday night sucked BW.....reboot your servers more often! Entire server was complaining about lag. Did you fire the guy that's in charge of reboots each week?
  4. At launch I choose a server and started getting long queue times to log in....so I rerolled on another.....man was I stupid. Things were fine for the first few months. I even had a short queue one night. Now I wait 40+ minutes for a WZ Ah well, there are other fish in the sea.
  5. EA already reported a 25% drop in subs. The free month was simply a ploy to keep that number from being more like 35% or 40%. Not only are subs down, but play time from the remaining subs is down. These things add up to a crap MMO experience for most of us. If they won't merge servers they will have to drop the sub cost or go F2P to bring in new players.
  6. The Ops hate and exaggeration is funny and sad. When these magical Ops kill you in a matter seconds.....one of two things is happening; either they popped every consumable and CD they have and got lucky with nothing but crits.....or you are getting hit by more than just the OPS!!!!! Snipers do wicked DPS and I don't think many people even realize they are there. I've seen a sniper in Huttball set up on the bridge and pull 600K damage with zero deaths! To me that says no one on the other team realized what was happening. All this is assuming you aren't simply out geared.
  7. My cousins friends neighbor said that BW has a secret under-the-table deal with Blizzard where they get money for every person that leaves SWTOR for Diablo. They gonna be rich Tuesday!
  8. Wishful thinking IMO. I really don't see a huge flood of new players unless BW drops the sub or something.

    Will you come back?

    I think someone is angry because they lost their job. If so, I'm sorry bro.....best of luck.

    Will you come back?

    D3 until GW2. <----a foresee a lot of fun there for $120. $15 a month for a SWTOR sub is just too much with so much more out there. Hell I haven't even picked up Mass Effect 3 yet.
  11. To level, have fun and learn the class. Plus on my server it's the only way to get a match without standing around for 40 minutes. Low level is much more active.

    server merges?

    Just wait until Tuesday. I predict single digit numbers in the fleet. We hover around 30 now.
  13. The only problem with SWTOR for me is how few people are left on my server, and it's getting worse every week. In two hours I can't even get the PvP daily done most of the time because queue times are so long. Guild recruiting is difficult because there aren't many people out there to recruit.
  14. I like this quote form the IGN article: "Most of the subscriber number drop was attributed to the loss of more casual players." You can read it here: http://pc.ign.com/articles/122/1224460p1.html LOL. Not sure where IGN got this, no direct quote is cited. But if that's what BW/EA thinks....they are very wrong. The hardcore "fans" if you can call them that, left months ago because there wasn't enough to do. They leveled, cleared every operation and got bored.
  15. So do WE get to claim responsibility for the 25% drop in subs? Because that's kind of cool and empowering. Take that EA!
