    Reading this thread I'm reminded of the arguments I used to get into with the Old Timers of computer repair. You see they insist that even with NTFS defraging your hard drive serves some purpose, the same way the old SWG players insist that if the servers had people the would be crowded around a Starport. Both of these are incredibly wrong.

    I have to admit, that the whole "servers dead, Servers alive" issue is not that important to me personally.

    I think, that if i would actually play the game, i wouldnt bother with anyone saying this or that.
    I would play and know what i see, not giving a wet one on what fanbois say or hater say - because:

    1. Who cares ?
    2. What is it doing anyway ?

    For the haters it clear: To proove the game is dead and kind of "justifying" the decision of cancelling.

    To argue about population from the fanboi's view is only "important" under one condition:
    if you deal with the haters - to argue against what you think is not correct.

    I say:
    If the serverpopulation is that healthy and fine, why there are constantly threads and discussions about it ?
    Answer is partly above, but just partly.

    Nice pics, and those events don't look half bad either...  However I take issue with this statement, you borderline come across as bragging about the amount of lag due to this event...  To me, this has been the main problem with SWG all long, and why it has and always will fail at life...

    I remember a Rebel player invasion in Bestine when I played, it could have been the very best PvP of all time, except for the fact that it was a slideshow....  Framerate lag makes games unplayable...  SWG is a heaping pile of dung code, and yet three years later they still cannot fix the FPS when even 20 people are fighting at once...

    Nice events and all, but if it is as laggy as  you say, there are much cleaner and more fun games out there to play...


    Heh, wasn't intending to sound like I was bragging about lagging - that'd just be silly lol.  I was more using it to emphasise the size of the event. 

    I think the only way they could fix the FPS issue is if they gave SWG cartoony graphics like WoW

    This event is the latest one that the CSR's did, and a previous one, on chilistra it was MIDNIGHT on  TUESDAY East Coast on an EAST COAST server and there were around 100 people. THIS is NOT peak times at all. 8 people where on in my guild and in our voice chat server. Again this is no where near peak times. I was going 2 do stormlord then got that message on screen. So can't pass up that, after the event I went 2 monia and theed and killed some overt Imps with a group of 8 this probably was like 1:30 amish so even less peak hours. You can't go anywhere (like cities or important quest places) and not see at least one person on chilistra. Theed always has at least 10 people 24/7. The game is not near what it was but IT GROWING VERY OBVIOUSLY. Mos Eisly has at least 20 people 24/7 which is pre/cu standard for a city. No matter what you haters and complainers and whiners think SWG is getting better, getting more populated, getting better graphics in summer, and becoming fun. I've played EVERY current mmo out for at least 1 week and SWG has the most fun in it. Sorry if you can't aggree. It is now a fast paced PLAYER skills game which is really fun. Auto-attack crap is stupid no skill. The people in my group is mostly all guildies.

    Holding down left mouse button while your gun fires is auto attack. Specials are not auto attack.

    A few hundred elder Jedi. The last of the denials, people who still can't believe SOE bent them over after that much time in a game.

    I appreciate your spirit, nice pics but I could go find 5 times that many people greinding at the tusken fort on any given Saturday, PreCU. Sorry, they shot her and now SWG is on life support.

    Just because your jedi is no longer special doesnt mean that the game isnt fun anymore buddy. You should give it another go, im sure you'll enjoy it!

    Both of my accounts still have vet trial 14 day revisits, it's my understanding vet accounts got those. All my toons were deleted and the game was uninstalled. Oggat/ Ioci are dead, I'm not digging them back up. Sorry, too much abuse all at once. SOE and LA had their chance, I still don't see signs they have changed.
