DarthMeerkat Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 (edited) With roughly 2 million copies sold even if this game lost 75% of its player base it would still be larger then EvE and according to EA profitable. I find all this QQ ammusing. Edited January 19, 2012 by DarthMeerkat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davetrump Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 They said it needed 1mil subs to be profitable. Once all the Republic unsub it will be a fail cascade with all the Empire unsubbing too. Who wants huttball 100% of the time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taurusaud Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 With roughly 2 million copies sold even if this game lost 75% of its player base it would still be larger then EvE and according to EA profitable. It sends the notice to other developers out there that as long as you pick a successful franchise like Star Wars you can slap it on junk and it will be a profitable venture.

I find all this QQ ammusing. This. Oh so much this. /Expecting a paying sub base of 750K-1M ongoing. Thats a 50% loss of the current crop. Much of it we will be better off without.

This is a big problem and I hope its rolled back but saying that this will have a huge impact on the game a year from now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember when people kited some Boss to Stormwind and it murdered everyone in sight. Good times. Wasn't it Kazzak? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
