Well here was reported that FIFA 12 sold over 10 million copies by february so i added an estimated 2m sales until now to a total of 12m which means that 12,000,000 X $60 = $720m total earnings.

Well FIFA 12 made about $700m from sales and that's in 6 months so clearly SWTOR's max doesn't come anywhere near that number.

It had no chance from the beginning to reach WOW. No future MMO will ever come close to 5 million let alone 12m that was WOW's peak and that's the cold reality. Even if SWTOR would've maintained it's 2m playerbase that would still not be enough to reach the likes of FIFA or The Sims considering all the costs needed to maintan and update the game.

I think the OP really needs a reality check. Not defending EA but did you really think SW:TOR could have ever been EA's #1 priority with big franchises like FIFA, The Sims or Battlefield around? Face it, those games just bring much more money than this games does. If you were in their places, you would've chose SWTOR to invest in over those games? I think NOT, or you're either very naive or you're lying to yourself.

Well at the same time graphics complexity has increased at about the same rate since then.

Read my last post, re-rendering shouldn't take 1min+, 10 sec should be max. So yes it's an rendering bug.

Imo 1 million is too much, i don't there are more than 500k active players atm.

Yes but in most MMOs it's done fast enough to barely notice it. The problem here is no doubt poor engine optimization. So yes it's 100% fixable unless the rendering algorithms used are so bad that major chnges are needed.

Luckly for me, I never had any sounds issues except those caused by lag...

While there are other minor bugs, the one that annoys me a lot is the occurrence of visual artifacts ingame especially when you're switching from desktop to the game and have to wait a few minutes until everything is rendered correctly. I reported this issue since beta and still BW hasn't come out with a fix.

PM me with your friend's email.

Even if they wanted to add Yoda's race to the game, I'm sure LA wouldn't allow it.

Seriously I don't see any increase in difficulty and I just returned to this game yesterday and I was gone since January. Can anyone tell me what was done except a few nerfs?

Just imagining Wookie sounds in every dialogue and it gives me a headache. You might not believe it, but the forums would be flooded with complains.

Clearly the problem here is voice art related not character modelling. I reckon hearing alien gibberish is cool at first but after a few hours it will mos likely become annoying for most people.

No, I'd rather pay a monthly fee than pay for microtransactions.

Try Xpadder

Any laptop with Nvidia 560GT/Radeon 6800M or higher should run this game on max settings.

I always choose NEED whatever the case. If the game lets me do it than that means it's fair game imo. So what someone could get items I need, I know I'll get the chance to get even better ones. I never had any problem in any group I've been until now.

Essels flaspoint is pretty easy imo, you just need the righ person with you. On beta, I did Essels with another player only and never died once but now with the EGA I had to get two players as there were only newbies around and they sucked at avoiding abilities. So you can only hope you get good players with you.

Sadly no Dreadnoughts yet buy I sometimes dream of having a Leviathan.

I know I had a Scorpion myself. Eve's difficulty level is really overestimated.

Not that hard if you don't count PVP.

Come on it's not that hard, but it's really tiresome.

For what?
