I think Bioware can go with out thoes 5 player.

"General of the navy"

IT'S ADMIRAL. If you are going to have uber corny system, atlest get the facts straight.

Noobs!! :D

Even though im a Pre-cu vet, i see the CU doing a better if you were to recreate anything. Pre-cu has been so gloryfied over the years. Well, im sure Pre-cu would be cool as hell if it were to come back as well, but im not really sure. I did most of the stuff and so on. Thing is, they had to make some choice with the gameplay back then, i think people were getting bored. CU might not have been the smartest move, but before the NGE it really took shape and i had a blast tbh. If you pass it out, CU had some improvements over Pre-cu, and the other way around. I think most people flipped beacsue it was a level icon in left corner.

Either way, if they turned it back to either CU or Pre-cu, obviousley i would give it a shot. But im not really sure if i would enjoy it or not.

combat is still redicoules. Just moving your character feels like runing drunk.

It's alot of words you've written but it's still simply based on guessiing - filled with a healthy dose of over-exaggerations ;)  

One question:  If all server merges mean shrinkage, does that mean the MMO marketplace for pretty much all MMO companies (excluding WoW and whoever makes EvE) is shrinking?  Afterall, SOE isn't alone when it comes to merging servers and as I've pointed out numerous times now, this is more the norm then the abnorm for the industry.

 

While they are "guesses", they are made with facts and figures we have at our disposal. You don't need to look any further than BadgerSmaker's own GCW chart to see the declines. His most recent chart even adds in the player city stats which allow us to make even better "guesses".

Spin it all you like...you may even believe what you type (although I doubt it)...but closing and downsizing is not "good" in this situation. SoE isn't downsizing due to finding new efficiencies or new technology allowing them to do more with less...they simply have LESS. Less players, less customers, less Developers, less interest, less money, less revenue.

A guess is still a guess no matter how educated you think it might be.  GCW and Player City charts are a glimpse but they can't be quoted as an accurate measure of the population as a whole when they're based on the activities of one playstyle in the game.  The majority of my guild aren't featured on the GCW ranks because they choose not to PvP, for example.

There is "evidence" that soe has lost lots of subs of the past few years.  Some of it based in fact, other times its anecdotal and yes theres a lot of wild speculation.  However, I have yet to see anything that comes close to being fact to suggest soe has maintained or gained subs.  Apart from obvious fanboy drivel like "theres more players in swg today than ever before" theres nothing showing growth at soe, only decline.  If you have any facts or insight that would show different, please...enlighten us.

That's what I've been saying...NO ONE here is qualified to post any facts on this matter.  It's ALL speculation.  Unless of course, someone from SOE wants to break their NDA...

You're not saying theres more subs now than there was before the NGE, right? Beacuse that's not true....

Perhaps it's beacuse this site is poorly managed from time to time?

The U.S has the patriot act, which kinda makes the U.S people have less liberty than most European countries.

See what foregin policies can do to a country. :(

How can they be coverd when they cant buy an insurance?

you still need the insurance. Besides, cancer treatment or deportation? HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

If you want god in the government. Don't think i can say much more. Those who voted for McCain IE Palin as well...you are fucking hilarouse. Maby jesus can come down and guide you? lol.

Not much, I play wow very seldom when im bored. Not really sure i even want to play an MMO at the time, theres so much bullshit out there. I will most likley buy Kotor, but im not sure how it will be though. But it looks different though.

yea, fucked the fed!

Does it mather, Bush=Obama.

You people are fucking crazy. Who cares if he talks to the students, isnt that a good thing? If you don't like it, use that second amendement right and over throw the government. Thats one of it's purposes right, having guns, will make the government afraid or somehing? Apparently not.

He was elected!!!!!!!! Not that i agree on his policies, but the people wanted it so.

 FREEDOM OF SPEACH, Socialism isn't illegal. Why the hell would he talk about socialism anyway?

You all are a bit to paranoid. Then again, economic collapse ftw!!!!!!

Geez, who cares.

Am guessing you're one of those leftist moonbats or a north African immigrant who lives in Malmo.

No, not really. Im white, im a libertarian. Now go be a good boy and vote for McCain, or Obama..not much difference.

Yeah well, they've kinda put them in one place, whihc is indeed stupid. But overall its like 8% or something here. Never the less, im not racist, so it doesn't really bother me. Also, stop beliving everything you read on the news. It's pretty much propaganada, especially when it comes from the U.S towards Muslims. But then again im guessing you are on of those neo-conservatives, so i think that kinda says it all. rofl.

Yeah well, then you can see why they dont like the U.S. I sure as hell woulden't.

 

They would hate the U.S no matter what the U.S did.

Lol, why on earth would they do that? If U.S stopped with the sanctions and all the policing the world, no one would hate them. Does anyone hate like sweden? Who hasn't had a war in like 200 years? No, no one hates Sweden.

If you count the U.S as chirstians, they have killed more innocent people than the Muslims have over the past few decades i can say. It's not like the muslims started this thing. It started with the U.S doing a coupe in Iran, and overthrowing the Sha. Thats when the problem started.

 

Financial interests trumps religion..

 

Oh, so they made money on Iraq and Afganhistan? I didnt know that
