Working as intended.

I'm going to hope that English is not your first, second, or third language.

They're probably just so empty is seems like they're down. Like when your car runs out of gas. You can still sit in it, it just won't go anywhere.

I get a good chuckle from this site every day and the BioFail Defense Force provides it.
-
Magid.com save us, you're our only hope! God, the wagons must be circled at BioFail HQ. The employees are stealing art off the walls and as many staplers as they can before the building is sold. This game becomes more of a joke every day.

BioWare and MMO fans alike should read this. For me it sums up why games like Vanguard felt so much more alive then themepark wow clones. BioWare dont let SWTOR become another Water World.
Hey that's an insult to Water World.

Learn to be civil. This community disgusts me sometimes.
I am sure Bioware is working on the immediate issues. The best you can do is let them know in a constructive manner.
The ****** community is a product of a ****** game. Garbage in, garbage out kind of thing.

I think 1.3 million is actually the queue of people leaving this goat ranch of a game. With new games coming out soon, I can't imagine the Tortanic lives through the summer.

Soa is still buggy. The VERY FIRST operations end boss.. How is that even possible?
Sheer incompetence. BW is so in over their head there's no hope. It's comical in a sad, sad way.
-
Between TSW and GW2, I can't imagine anyone sticking around on the TORtanic. This game horrible. F2P or completely shut down by 2013.
-
Holy balls, I came to see if this web domain was for sale yet. Imagine my surprise when I see that the game is still in business! You've got servers with less than 100 people running around on them, it can't last much longer. Oh well, I'll check back in a couple months I guess.

Dumbed-down Fisher Price MMO now getting easier? Details tomorrow. That's one sleep for the TOR fanbois.
-
That's not fair at all. Every developer I know of uses positive feedback and critiques from major gaming news groups as advertisement. BioWare is no different. They're more than allowed to share this or pass it forward to the public.
But the author sounds so damn desperate you just want to give him a hug by the end of it.
I want to send him a poster of the kitten hanging from a tree captioned "Hang In There".

Guys? Guys, where are you going? Hey our game's still cool! Look, this website says it's cool and you all like websites right? Wait, come back!
-
This game is fun damnit, and not broken at all. WHY ARE YOU NOT HAVING FUN?!
-
Yay Blizzard?
I find it funny how your perspective and mine can be so divergent. Whilst I understand your frustration I don't share it. I came up from MUDs through UO/EQ/DAoC and they all had their good points and they all had their bad points. I've often felt if someone could take all the good points (mine! purely subjective too
) and cram 'em into one MMO I'd be set for life but it doesn't work that way. We get to check out what is on offer which is fine. What isn't fine is putting down other folks' opinions or preferences. When I buy a game that is craptacular, I check and see if I think it's going to move toward what I think is "good" and, if not, I go away after, maybe, politely telling the devs. what I think could be better. I don't sit on the boards bemoaning my fate and I especially don't indulge in hyperbole in a feeble attempt to make my preferences seem more important than they are.I like this game and I'm getting tired of all the hyperbolic nonsense. The game has issues, needs to grow, needs things fixed but it has a good foundation for what it is MEANT to be. And it's not meant to be a PvP game, nor a EQ must-group-to-survive-level game, it's meant to be a story-driven journey through the Star Wars franchise.
As such, I think it's pretty good and for those for whom it hasn't worked out...I am sorry, that sucks but BW is not likely to change it be like _______.
Come on man, you're too well spoken to throw out the random Blizzard reference. I don't know where that came from. But since you brought it up, WoW was a great game. I played the heck out of it and enjoyed every second. Well, mostly. BioWare is missing whatever Blizzard had bottled. How this game has one active subscriber I have no idea. But then some folks out there love the Westboro Baptist Church too so go figure.
Maybe at some point a person burns out on MMOs. Or maybe they just start to expect something different. I hadn't played a MMO for several years and was expecting a lot, and got a ticket on the TORtanic instead.

TIP: Mess with the Gamma setting, it might create more contrast and be easier for you to see.

Really? How old are you? ;p
I am working on my second, and third 50 at the same time. I play just about every night. I'm a raid leader and now a guild leader.
.....and I'm loving the game.
Your argument is basically a logical fallacy in which you extrapolate your personal belief and desire for a hard core shooter out to the entirety of the player base. This is not "Call of Duty" where one races up to the highest level of contention in as little time as possible. It is an MMORPG where story, community are its mainstay.
No argument with you if you dislike it, but fabricating facts so as to justify your dislike will be questioned.
42, thanks for asking. If community is a mainstay of MMOs like you're saying (and I agree with that part) this game is really in trouble. There's no community, hell there's no players anymore. It's such a single player game from level one, you rarely need to group or interact with anyone. I've played a ton of MMOs over the years and this one just boggles my mind. How can I run through almost a whole planet and not see any people?
The problem, and reason this will end up in the Walmart discount bin, is the game is soulless. Well, that and bugs in Operations and piss-poor overall design. And monotonous game play. And terrible selection of starting races. And standing around in fleet. And a crafting system where you don't get to actually craft anything.
Ugh, now I'm just depressed. I miss good MMOs.

Interesting, a feature not working as intended in TOR? I don't believe you.
-
Great post OP, spot on. What should surprise me but sadly doesn't, are the kids that come in and refute the fact this game is a hot mess. The lifeboats are packed with players getting the hell out of this game.
I guess it should say something about TOR that the only ones enjoying it are the players who somehow still don't have a level 50 and only play 4 hours a week. Sure it's great for you, you don't actually do anything, so what could be wrong?
Meanwhile those that enjoy these kinds of games have come and gone, realizing this is literally a sinking ship.
BioWare is absolutely clueless. They gave me 30 free days (because that's something a prosperous MMO does) and I used 1 minute of that to uninstall.
-
That's just all part of the fun IMO. Stuff like this is what separates multiplayer games from boring single player game where the outcome is always the same
Wait, this is a multiplayer game?
-
so they give gunslingers a grunt for burst volley, but they take away the scoundrel upper hand giggle....
It makes sense to BioWare. Who's to argue with the great minds that created SWTOR? :|
-
And the BioWare Defense Force fiddles while Rome burns. Enjoy the Jersey Shore of MMOs guys.
-
Yeah, what a smooth launch! Whoo! Hardly any queue times at all.
Forward a measly four months. Subscribers have dropped off the face of the earth. For some reason they still run with too many servers. Servers turn into ghost towns. Subscriptions drop further. F2P incoming before 2013.
It isn't exactly rocket surgery to figure out the pattern but good old "head in the sand" BioWare somehow remains clueless.

Give me 1 reason why we can't talk with other faction
