Page, after page, after page of SWOTR players begging to be transfered off their dead servers: http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=34745&page=61 Yep, no mass exodus. Just a bunch of 'haters' making up lies...

Rift is on lifesupport as well though, which is a shame because they actually seemed to really put effort into it, and at least pretend to polish simple things like AA and texture resolution/LOD. |

Originally posted by MartinZ And while the last pages of that are a few whines about transferring off low pop servers, there is a big chunk that is just people wanting to move servers for other reasons, thread started during the beta phase when people wanted to move off high pop servers. A lot of reasons for wanting to move off the servers, not just low pop, plenty just whinging about long PvP warzone queue times. |

Last time I looked, the Patch 1.1 "/ragequit" thread in the SWTOR PVP forums had almost 3000 posts.
Perhaps that only represented 10% of the furious PVP'ers, so 30,000 of them actually unsubbed en-masse.
To them it certainly felt like a mass exodus, except the remaining 700,000 players didn't notice that they were gone ? ;) |

Originally posted by MartinZ The thread is about server queues and overload. Player want to transfer off their server because of queues and overload page after page. Player complaining they had to reroll several times because it was always too full... You only tunnelvisioned to a selected bunch of recent complaints about transfering due to lack of population, with a handful of overdramatic kids repetively posting the same complaint several times per page, page after page and two or three ragequitter spending the rest of their time hating the game on the forums jumping on the train. It doesnt make it more grave, when five guys posts 80 times their/the server are dead and demand free transfers/merges, because the dozen of others complain just once each about their server being too full demanding free transfers either. And yes even a healthy game will turn out with a few low end server especially after launch a few will end up low, even with normal healthy retention rates

Oh by the way ..the WoW fanbois insisting to fall back on xfire's accumulated playtime hours trend, making the usual flawed implications about the games population and a pertained "mass exodus" in SWToR, should be cautious with what kind of fire (haha "flames" you get it?) they play:
Hint: Compare SWToRs last weeks peak to WoWs latest datapoint. Yes the graphs have already been adjusted to match each others scale. 'Seamless world' - A world lacking visible or phys. seams, forming forced breaking points during transition and movement;

Well I guess the fact that some people can't even find the CANCEL button on account page (and BW are advising to cancel over the phone!!), and those that can are also still able to log in a play for free even without an active account.. This may have a little to do with it.

The questions are: -Are the servers still packed just as they were at launch? -Will the population number continue to decline?

The 'hate' community is almost always wrong. Almost. Sometimes they're right. If I go outside every single day and scream about how the icy rain is going to make someone wreck their car, eventually I'll be right. Join the League For Gamers. |

Lizardbones not much different between fanboys and haters in the end.
Haters: 1. Will take any bit of information and twist it to fit their point of view 2. Believed the hype of the game even after years of knowing every game that has come out fails to meet it and gets mad 3. Completely ignores anything good about the game 4. Believes their opinion of the game is correct and drops fanboy when anyone post something positive about the game
Fanyboys: 1. Will take any bit of information and twist it to fit their point of view 2. Still believes all the hype about the game and the hype that is not in the game even though it was advertised to be will be coming soon in a "patch" 3. Completely ignores the very obvious flaws in the game 4. Believes their opinion of the game is correct and drops hater anytime someone post something negative about the game
Trolls: Will be both to get a response from people. Hmmm what did I just do....../doh
Haters use to be fanboys, and fanboys will become haters at some point. They are the same people, extremes of both sides who drowned out any other discussion that tries to occur. |

Pretty much....There was no mass exodus lol, like 95% of the playerbase stayed, people just like bitching. The servers are STILL growing in population, with the newest servers STILL going from standard to heavy, and a new very heavy server every weekend. Sooo rofl @ the trollololols |

Originally posted by Valentina Where did you get 95% from? Oh nevermind we know. You do realize the "server load status" means nothing about player population. Explain why on the official SWTOR forums the "combine server threads" that get posted faster than the SWTOR forum mods can combine them or delete them.
Point is this game will see drops in playerbase like every MMO has and will. I'm taking a shot of vodka every time I see a reference to a game being a WoW or Diablo clone. |

Why the hate thread,baiting thread and why is it still up after 7 pages?I guess it shows the hypocritical moderation here. This thread is not discussing a mmorpg it is merely pointing fingers at users. I for one predicted 5 million users not becuase i care about numbers but someone asked for opinions ,so i joined the discussion.I also predicted it would drop to 2 then eventually 500k after one full year. I did not make any predictions or opinions out of hate as the OP so nicely LABELLED users,i did it because our opinions were asked.I actually tried to like SWTOR i played 6 players at one time,more than probably MOST,hardly qualifies as a hater. I saw a game that offered a short term fix to people looking for a game,but i did not see anything long term. There might have been some people that gave an "OPINION" of mass exodus after the first month,but i doubt hey were claiming to know,it was merely an opinion.Example i thought Wow would never survive past the first year,becuase of lack of visual quality in a 3d VIDEO game world,but i was way off on my prediction. Opinions btw cannot be WRONG,they are just opinions,so lose the HATE threrads geared towards hating on users that are only here to take part in gaming discussions. http://www.youtube.com/user/Napolianboo#p/u/15/rCYLLQCNc1w |

Honestly i had forgotten that the 1st month was here. I was too busy having fun. On my server there was no noticible drop in players per world. Even the starter worlds had 70-125 people in them at prime time. I did notice there were 15 fewer people at Nar Shada, but that probably had more to do with prime time versus 10am.
I will expect some drop if they can't fix their cs department, but there are so many here who have NEVER played a mmo and are loving the star wars feel.
