     Location: New York | I think that site is biased agaisnt SWTOR. There is no evidence to support the loss of 400k subscribers.

and
"STAR WARS®: The Old Republic™ active subscribers are 1.3 million. Two new content packs – Legacy and Allies, available in Q1"
Q1 is over, and we know the legacy update, but I'm not sure what the Allies feature they are referring too is. Could be something already ingame or something that got pushed back. |

      Location: United Kingdom | It might be true. I know when I started this game I could always get help when playing. These days if im on in the day UK time I am lucky to see another player. This has made me think a lot lately about crossing to a Europe server instead for my times. I have not ever experienced this in WOW, nor do I remember it in SWG. Level 40 to 50 has been incredibly slow, I am usually the only guild member on in the day as well. |

  Location: CA | In the bigger picture sense, I think they're doing just fine. They got a lot of people to purchase the game, create subscriptions, characters etc. If they lost some of the customer base, that just means they have to really beef up the output on the upcoming patches, which is good news for those of us who love the game and see a lot of promise in it, but feel the game is a work in progress. As long as Bioware and EA can maintain this for the long term, we'll see heavy advancements over the next year. There's a lot of technologies/video game advancements this game hasn't even tapped into yet. |
