I don't know if it's just me, but I've noticed our server population has decreased almost ten fold. During the release and give or take 4-5 weeks, we had roughly 50-60 people on the fleet, and obviously more around planets. Nowdays there's never more than 30 on the fleet at any given time, the GTN is pretty much dead too, there's NO schematics, no scavenging mat's nothing.. We need a server merge, or a free character transfer because having limited users to bring into a guild op is getting tire-some. The server is dying.

I'll start by saying, I'm on a quad-core, geforce 8800gti and 2gb ram, i know im just pushing it, as are many of you. I found a fix that got my FPS up from 20 (when outside) to 60! >Preferences>Graphics> Turn everything to Low. Turn Shadows to OFF! Turn your resolution DOWN to 1280x1024 (if you use higher) or 800x600 if you using 1280 as default. Turn tree texture and the other one (forgot) down to 1%. Hit apply. you'll notice your FPS will increase! Indoors you'll be getting 50-80FPS Outdoors you'll get 30-60 FPS. It's helped me a heck of alot, as i was considering not bothering with the game, until they fixed the lag/fps drops. If this helps you as much as it helped me, please feel free to spread the word and share this thread. Rainbow'Dash!

Pre-ordered 9th December, got in at 17:30pm GMT. Disappointed as recieving 15FPS outside, all settings on low, vSync off, drivers updated, firewall checked etc etc. Nothing I can do more to increase performance. Decided not to play as I can't play with the jittering and FPS drops, will wait a few months until Bioware/LA release a patch/patch's. Hope you lot that are waiting get in tonight and don't get any problems like myself, Have fun!
