Hi Mr. Hall. Thanks for the insight and taking the time to answer some questions. Always cool to learn about about such amazing artists. Best of luck to you moving forward!

Hi Jeff Hickman! I am glad to see you releasing this State of the Game letter. I look forward to future letters on this topic, thanks! I have been a big fan of yours for years and appreciate the excitement and enthusiasm you bring to your MMO's. I agree with all your points and am glad to see you are hearing the community, I understand that you cannot address every concern of every player, but I think the issues that you did bring up hit home for me as the most important ones. 1.) I think the game is awesome! 2.) I want less bugs with updates and want faster fixing of bugs still in game since release! Get Crackin! 3.) I want more content, keep it comming as the current content is simply phenomenal! Send our thanks to the team for all they do to make this a fantastic gaming experience, we sure appreciate it!

I really hope they never open the game up for outside add-on programs. Running these types of programs compromises system security and causes more problems than it fixes IMO. I hope EA/Bioware Never does this.

I can't believe they only charge $15/month. I payed that much for DAoC in like 2000 when it was released. Considering inflation, its a steal to still pay that much. I would be willing to pay more per month for such a great game! Love this game and everything about it, especially how it keeps getting better all the time!

I really enjoyed the video, something about watching demonstrations via in game video is just cool. I hope more info comes out in a video format in the future!

This new update is awesome! Thanks Bioware and keep them coming!! This game keeps getting better all the time

Current estimates are that WoW has sold 11 Billion copies, which is a combination of digital and box sales. This does not account for free to try accounts, so consumers didn't have to buy the game to discover they didn't like it which significantly make this comparison worse imo. So with 11 Billion copies sold and currently 10 million (rounded) active subscribers, WoW has lost 91% of the customers that have tried the game. Factoring in free to try accounts would probably push the retention numbers under 1 percent. However, WoW is ranked as the 11th best game of the all time top 200 games ever made, All Games here people. So how is using this basis for comparison justifying anything??? So with SWTOR having sold 1.7 million and retained just under 1 million last time I saw numbers released a few months ago, I would say that going with this method of comparison makes SWTOR appear to be a raging success. Even if you go with a guess-timated current number like 500K, SWTOR is a MONSTER of a SUCCESS and WOW IS TOTAL FAIL. EPIC. Figures Lie and Liars Figure. Using vague and obfusicating math to justify an argument is silly. SWTOR is a phenomenal game and I"m loving, just had to have a laugh over the pages of people arguing the game is a failure but the method they are utilizing to prove this is the true FAILURE here.
