ExpectWar Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Is SWTOR dying? Ques are longer and longer. So many of the good players that I levelled with never log in anymore it seems. Republic fleet on mt server used to have over 100 toons at off hours, and now its mainly 20-30. My server Helm of Garush was one of the top 5 population servers at one point. Now it seems more and more like a Ghostown. What's going on? nope not even close Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mordredz Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 It was certainly "nuff" for me to be absolutely sure that you are a complete tool. Arent you special, your words are truely touching indeed, shows alot, thanks for sharing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mordredz Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Going good to me, not sure what timezone/server timezone your in, and lets not forget its still new, so the up and down process which is always going on, is going to be more noticeable, but we dont know if they're gaining more than losing. IMO i'd say they are definetly gaining, even though the forums are full of QQer's who come on here to rage(lets face it, most of these threads would not have been made if people would have just taken some time to defuse after they got pissed off at something in the game). Meanwhile the other 90% which consists of non-haters is-guess what?-enjoying the game. I don't know why I come on the forums to show QQer's the error of their ways.. And ladies and gentlemen we have this thing called COMMON SENSE, learn from this person, tho i doubt you will... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dschlan Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 nope not even close Great logic defending your view. I am so impressed that I have changed my mind!...seriously, if you take a position you have to back it up. If not, your opinion is irrelevant.

Tooslick Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 You played tera and praise it? rofl um ok, and GW2? ROFL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Nuff said Darn right I'll praise Tera for what I have seen it do right, so far. The combat system is excellent, imo. Fantastic fluid animations, sound effects, and combos make it more engaging then simply clicking buttons and abilities at random through a clunky interface like ToR's. The interface was smooth and responsive and I experienced no lag what-so-ever and this is in the games beta. I got to partake in a little open world pvp between guilds (probably 20v20) and there was no lag and the frames didn't drop. (not surprised as it's using the proven Unreal engine) Haven't experienced first hand what the game offers as far as end game, PvP, BG's, Arena, etc. but I do know they've gotten the simple fundamentals of combat right.

Bobaphat Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 I hope it dies. This game got more money and more hype than any recent MMO and it's just a carbon clone of another crappy game. Just look at the engine behind it... come on it's 2012 guys, time to create not copy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Show me data that says they're gaining. So far all the data linked in this thread says it is dying. Logically speaking, this game is awful. It's another generic WoW clone that isn't even as good as WoW. People like you tried to defend Rift, WAR and Aion, look how those clones turned out.

Spifnar Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 My server still regularly sees 20-48 people in Huttball, and about 1/3 that in other WZs in the sub-50 bracket. So...40-100 people PvPing sub-50 depending on playtime. The game is far from dying on some servers. But in the end, a casual game is going to be easily played through by the harder-core players. Maybe they come back for a patch and 1.2 will cause an uptick in # of people online for a while. How long they stay depends on how good the patch is. WoW keeps people subbed by releasing new Raid content and gear improvements every month or two. But a gear treadmill is not for everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rehneu Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Last I saw (just a couple weeks ago at best) was this game currently has (pre overseas launch) 1.7 mil subscribers. Hardly dying numbers here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keldaur Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 (edited) nope not even close I don't know what your server is. But i am in the most populated european server (tomb of freedon nadd). We had on republic fleet a month ago around 400 players on primetime, now it's around 100. You can say (it's because people is doing other things blabla). People were doing other things a month ago, now most people are just logging to queue for warzones, finish their daily and log out. Even Ilum, which used to have 5 instances running, all of them full is now left to 1 full, and a 2 which is quite empty. So, maybe i am wrong and suddenly the most populated EU server is the only one which suffered a massive lose of players (and that means, surely 3 of each 4 players). That doesn't mean the game is dead, but doesn't mean it's alive when there are a lot of servers which are ghost towns and need to be merged ASAP.

Rofl. Server merges = dying game. If they merge servers, it will be the only proof needed that ToR is circling the drain, you wont need investor reports, you wont need to see hard population numbers.

Iboga Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 If the game is losing subscriptions then a server merge is actually the best option to stop that trend... if that is what's happening, which I'm not saying is, because my server has actually gained population if anything...

Merging servers won't stop it. It's not the people leaving that made people quit, it's the low quality of an overhyped game that really does nothing special.

It is 23.50 in Poland now. 194 players on the Republic Fleet, and this is not a peak time. So, either your definition of primetime is way different than mine or you are straight lying. Is this less than 400? Yes it is. But I dont know if it was 400 in the first place, and as I said, 23.50, monday evening is not a primetime, server load is heavy, during weekend I saw it reached full at least once.
