Ghostryder Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 I'm in. By the time I run out of content, new content comes out. I am glad Bioware made a sound financial move and catered to the working class folks and not the hardcore fringe. I still don't get why people who claim to have unsubbed are still posting in the forums 100x per day. Why dont you move along to the next game you are inevitably going to hate. Or go get a job at the local fast food joint and pay your mom some rent for pete's sake. Those canned hams cost money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dnomz Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Still a month left on GameCard... then I'm definately out. Hopefully I can reach War Hero by then and finish The False Emperor, then I'm satisfied. Not much else to do anyway. Unless you want to pay Bioware $15 a month only to pray each day for those Battlemaster Commendations so you can finally get forward in gear. I'll come back after 10 or so major patches, so there's actually something to do. Both PvE and PvP are pretty dead atm, and Ilum is a pathetic joke. In fact, I won't even return until I get a confirmation that it's possible to fight 25 vs 25 in Ilum on a steady 60 FPS like I have everywhere else.

Starglyte Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Was waiting for more Legacy info, but since that was not coming quick enough I unsubbed. Max level I got to was 37, but then I realized I can see the awesome story on youtube without having to do the other quests I had no interest in.

Probably only a matter of time before someone makes 2-hour versions of all the cinematics combined for all classes. Not worth the money to play through yourself.

FrostXian Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Staying subscribed. My guild is flourishing, the Ops are fun, the FPs are fun, the PvP is fun and I still have a **** load of story lines to play (only one char on 50 with tier 2 gear). I am really looking forward to patch 1.2 and beyond. In my oppinion Bioware is doing a brilliant job with patching. Everytime I read the new patch notes, it's exactly what I would have done next too. There also is no MMO on the horrizon for me to switch. GW2 is uninteresting. I played GW1 and it was rather not my type of game and GW2 actually looks worse... ^^ Then there is soft porno TERA... meh... if I want soft porno, I don't need a subscription. Other than that there is nothing in SWTORs league anyway. Maybe Titan, when it comes... but that will be earliest end of 2013. Go Bioware! You're doing a good job here! Edit: Oh wait one thing I hate is the support. It's slow, unpersonal (the support droid stuff is a stupid idea) and not really helpful. I made 4 tickets now and none really got handled well. I find it extremely funny how people rush to the defense of Bioware with extreme zeal as an aswer for a simple question. It tells a lot about how badly the game is doing.

JonnyFreedom Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 I am out.. This game is trash post level 49. Too bad it took only 6 days played to hit 50 and that is watching every cut scene. Ddi it twice and can't bring myself to do it anymore. The game is pretty much on its dying leg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Folgrin Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 (edited) I'm staying. They fixed the critical issues I was having just in time bug wise. If it isnt physically broken Ill keep playing for now. I was having mouse freezing issues ect. There three things that bug the crap out of me though. Companions returning from missions and the pop ups make you exit from the GTN and also its annoying in wz's. Operatives/scoundrels are still OP imo. And its nit picky I know but I really want a change to change my legacy name. But yeah game works so Ill keep playing probably until my alt hits 50 then if I dont gear up quick I think I might be outta here. PvP is awesome sub 50 but its a pain 50+ for me.

dnomz Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 I wanted to buy half a year subscription at launch. Glad I didn't. Would have granted me the 6th month for free, but at the cost of many lost months since I already can't bear playing another month to end my GC.

ShaftyMcShaft Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Why would you lol at that? I don't like WoW. I was grossly disappointed with its art style as well as many other aspects. I do, however, understand that millions of people do like it and I'm very glad for them. You don't like TOR. It was very disappointing for. That's cool. I get that. But because you don't like it, you want it to fail miserably, causing the company that made it (and its employees and their families) to lose massive amounts of money, as well as causing the thousands of people that love it to lose a game they adore? Do you want to destroy everything you don't love? Yup. 10chars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kryttos Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 I'm staying. Game and 6 months were a gift, plus I'm a star wars junkie. So i love it even if it doesnt live up to certain people's standards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gungan Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 (edited) I'd love to keep playing, but Republic is completely dead on my server, and it takes a week to find a group for a normal level 50 flashpoint. I'm not gonna sit around for a week at a time waiting to do content I should be able to do now because they failed to include a working LFG tool or proper faction population controls.

oakamp Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 So who is sticking in with Bioware after about 60 days of the game being out. I have 5 days left on sub and I am out.. i cancel sub few weeks ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oursacrifice Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 I'm on my way out. I've deleted my level 50 toons already, I rarely play anymore, and when I do it's even greater boredom than what it was at 50. The game isn't challenging, there's no competitive drive like in other MMOs, it's too focused on story and not on MMO-style content and there's simply no variety in anything. I'm hoping Diablo 3 hits soon but that's unlikely. So I'll probably just not game for the next few months while I wait for its release, while watching these forums until my actual sub runs out in March.

Nosferuz Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 I unsubbed a few days before this latest patch came in. I had inclinations of returning after the March patch came in with Legacy, but with the recent Surge nerf, it's become very apparent that Bioware is running the car how they see fit. And I don't want to get caught in the collision, So I won't even be coming back. Good day Gents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Varteras Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 I really do enjoy myself most days when I play it but I will have to say that if significant improvements to the game aren't in a year from now I will probably unsub. I know 'improvements' is a subjective term but I do have my own ideas of what I would like to see and I really don't feel like paying for another monthly subscription for years in a game that is lacking some features that I felt should have been in from the beginning and I darn sure don't want to see 'look another flashpoint! another operation! another warzone!' as their sole idea of giving us more content. I'm giving them plenty of time and I'm sure they'll amaze me with something before the end of the year. I'm just preparing myself for the possibility that they won't.

MariusZane Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Recently unsubbed, unsure if I will resub. My main reason is how "dead" the game feels. Its just not an MMO as I see it. Most of the time it feels like I am playing alone, with a random chatbox. Bugs i couldnt care less about. But the MMO feeling is just not there.

BlackPhlanx Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Honestly, as a CE holder and someone who buys his subs in 3 month stints, I'd hate to see this title crash and burn. Infact, it'd make me rather angry losing out on that chunk of change. However, if you actually look at the total US Server population at torstatus.net you'll see a rather alarming trend of the servers spiking at launch then losing nearly HALF their number right afterward, with a steady decline since. Needless to say the claim of having some 1.7 Million active subs at this point and time is highly questionable if those figures on that graph are what they imply. I have had multiple multiple people in my nearly 200-man guild discuss un-subbing largely due to (and read this Bioware): POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE (or lack thereof) Bioware, you guys have A LOT to learn about how MMO customer service works. People are PAYING you a subscription for a service, so if something breaks or needs to get fixed, they expect you to jump on it pronto. And I'm not talkin about overall bugs, though that is a small part. I'm talking about account-related things etc. like a quest reward that was a full set of gear but one of the pieces was something completely wrong, then not fixing it correctly the first 3 attempts. Will I stick things out for now? Yes. HOWEVER, I will not go down with a sinking ship. I have 2.5 years invested in EVE and I'd sooner go back to that and be sitting pretty on some 20 billion ISK and 2 well established toons then stick around if this title is gonna crash. I'm not here to bash you Bioware, I love your titles, but something has gotta give. My 2 cents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ansultares Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 in for another 60 at leastSomething like that. I haven't been counting, but I suspect BW/EA may try to or already have screwed me out of some days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That initial loss you noted likely has more to do with BW adjusting server capacities during the first few weeks post-launch. They were gradually opening the servers up to more players over time. The steady decline afterward should account for the 300,000 subscribers that have since left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's true then someone should have hit the panic alarm and a meeting of the minds should have gotten together and evaluated what they are and are not doing for their subscribers. For starters, it'd be nice if they apologised for their 200+ hours of storyline content lie. Or when you had level 50's just 2-3 days after launch... something is obviously wrong. Granted this isn't entirely just story-based XP earned, but still. They should have nerfed the massive amount of XP they give you .

Menasor Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Mine runs out at the end of the week and I'm going to hold off on renewing it for now. The game is fun enough but after leveling 3 characters to 50 so far I need a bit of a breather. Besides, I have a few games left over from december to play (not to mention the vita).
