    This game is no threat to World Of Warcrft. People said the same thing about every other game that has come out and they all just came and went just like this game is going to do.

    the only thing that will kill WoW is itself... not ToR or any other game.

    Let the wow-hate trolls have their fun.  As always, every new game claims attemps to claim they'll kill wow and be greatest new thing ever!  It's called marketing. 

    And every single one has been a huge failure compared.  1 million subs is not a failure, but 1 million subs compared to 10's of millions (I forget exact number wow had) is a failure.  They need to stop talking about WoW completely and stand each game up against what a game should be .... FUN.  If you enjoy it, who cares about anything else?

    Pfft, we all really know that SW:TOR isn't the cause of Blizzard's stock downgrade.  It is definately from L2 going F2P and FFXIV releasing 1.20!

     

    Who's with me on this?  Anybody?

     

    ... Fine then, don't agree with me, but I told you so!  The voices in my head agree.

    They seem to be doing a pretty good job of it too.

    Remember Cataclysm is made of pure fail for many players

    Remember MoP is made of pure fail for many players

     

    + SWtor is an ok mmo

    +GW2 is an even more ok mmo

     

     

    4 points against WoW's and people drop out faster then you can count them.

    Titan gets released, every MMORPG dies. So either the way, they aren't really losing anything. I bet it was even projected that they'll lose subscribers, since you know, 5 years ~ is an extra-ordinary life span for an MMO, nowadays.

    I doubt titan will be that awesome as you expect it to be.

    And Many MMO's last 5+ years.  Its not that big of a deal.

    What? From what I've heard TOR will run on almost every system WoW will run on. The system requirements aren't that huge.

    What are the system requirements for the game?

    Processor:


    • AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual-Core 4000+ or better

    • Intel Core 2 Duo 2.0GHz or better
    • Operating System:

    • Windows XP or later

    RAM:


    • Windows XP: 1.5GB RAM

    • Windows Vista and Windows 7: 2GB RAM

    Note: PCs using a built-in graphical chipset are recommended to have 2GB of RAM.

    Star Wars: The Old Republic requires a video card that has a minimum of 256MB of on-board RAM as well as support for Shader 3.0 or better. Examples include:


    • ATI X1800 or better

    • nVidia 7800 or better

    • Intel 4100 Integrated Graphics or better
    DVD-ROM drive – 8x speed or better (required for installation from physical editions only) Internet connection required to play.


    It runs on my toaster.

    I would really rather that the wow kiddies kept playing wow, and left the rest of us alone....

     

    ..so, I say "Long Live WoW!!!"
