If SOE were to do a complete server wipe and reset, say 8 servers, the rest of the hardware used to support those eight.  If you know anything about the SWG backbone, it is a daisy chain network of server clusters, lots of independent hardware, which is different than every other MMO design.  It was designed for high population packet driven use, but never approached design specs or investment.

If everyone had to start from zero.  Newbie Day One launch stuff...

Using the most up to date, current, bug-free version of SWG they have (yes NGE)....

Advertise like they should have done from day one....

Provide months of service to veterans proportionate to length of previous subscription (one for one) to any and all veterans, one account maximum...

Made a sincere push to get new customers, transfer other players, assist veterans with issues, and provide a society...

If all those happened, I think they could actually make something of this game.

Wont happen and you forget the bunch of pissed of players losing everything...yes its a small number of players but swg cant risk anything atm even though their dying. Might be a good idea for a last attempt to bring back swg.I think unless they make it free..it'll just die eventually.

the only way swg can get players back is by rolling the game back to the pre-cu. that is what 250k people want and it will save the game.

hehehehehe, gotta love it.

Seriously, this game is a lost cause, roll back or no. I believe the term is

FUBAR

With no chance of redemption. Scrap it and start over.
