So if you count 30 people in Rustess, 30 in Mos Eisley, and that is about it. I looked everywhere for people last week and found 5 people NOT in Rustess or Mos Eisley.
You can "rationalize" however you want, but 70 people on a "Heavy" server on a Friday night is NOT a good thing for SWG.
I realize that we will never get through to some of you because you are exactly the kind of consumer this game now targets... That's fine for you, but don't sit and tell us the populations are fine, and if you do back it up with some evidence.
A screenshot of 30 people in Rustess isn't going to prove anything other than 1/2 of the server population is 30, because we all know people hang out in Rustess and Mos Eisley, and a few stragglers do their own thing...
Can someone who uses the term "cookie cutter instance" tell me exactly what that means to you? I get the impression that you are saying each instance is the same except for the skins on the NPC's. For example the new Exar Kun instance requires the group to adopt many different tactics thoughout the instance to complete it. You can't just DPS everything and hope to have a chance to finish it.
You know what they mean. When people say cookie cutter mmo.'s. ..Its the same here. If its PVE then its the same every time. If it were pvp and they add atmosheric flight..i mean the real deal..and pilotable AT-AT's that dont look retarded...thats something that is NOT cookie cutter. Thats something that is starwars.
No, that would be Battlefront which is cookie cutter. Were playing RPG not FPS.
Ahh, now I see what Obi means. Ya it'll be PVE only. Hoth dream= dead.
See you in the dream.. The Fires from heaven, now as cold as ice. A rapid ascension tolls a heavy price.
i think it is safe to say that us vets win another one from the looks of it. this isn't really fun anymore as we win every time and really the fanbois and $OE really can't put up any kind of fight.
What a bunch of winners you are!
Finally we're getting the credit for all our hard work.

I am shocked that this staff at SWG is doing Hoth as a PvE instance. I can't really judge it because I have not seen what the game play will be like. But the fact of the matter is that fans have been begging for PvP on Hoth since closed beta. I will believe it when I see it. That is the lesson I have learned with this horrible design using the star wars name. NO offense to those who still love the game. To each their own. They need a staff to program collision on the engine due to no jump ability.

its funny i'm not even debating with anyone but they seem to be debating with me
I asked what constituded a "crowd" that's about it
I saw a crowd in that photo and i saw a crowd in the older photo. I dont actually care lol so argue whatever you like. I have always played on a server that was light and never hit medium or heavy so for me there is not much different. I have always stayed away from servers like bria because i find them aweful. I hate the lag. Now I dont recall ever seeing more then 30-40 people in one place in coronet or anywhere on tempest so for me its not a big deal . So argue and say i'm rationalizing but i truly dont have anything to add. OF COURSE population has dropped its an old game I DONT REALLY CARE I simply am trying to put some perspective on this for some people.
Some people have never played this game before the cu and some have never played WoW even. Now for them the crowd on the servers NOW is crowded. Here are some rules of thumb.
a) can i find someone to buff me when i want .. the answer is yes no problem there
b) am i ever in a city for more then a few minutes well the answer is no if i am anywhere I'm out hunting with friends if I am on the ground or crafting ALONE on lok for relaxation in my house.. (no crowds there) hunting groups are limited to 8 so that is hwo many people we bring. I do the instances as I find them fun, but not a steady diet of them
lastly my most favourite part of the game is space .. crowds well its kinda hard to find a crowd in space.. just well doesn't happen..
c) what is that persons idea of "a crowd to begin with" well you know that photo looked crowded to me and for someone that never ever played the cu that photo is crowded to that person he is not comparing as he has no other point of referance. This is what i dont get about this "debate" your not really in a position to debate something with players that never played the game when you did. They show you a photo of a crowd and you tell them its not a crowd because the other old photo of a game he has never played is a crowd. What the heck sense does that make? none really.
does it matter ? no
so yes BOTH photos had photos of a "crowd" period. and to be honest because of my playsytel I have never ever seen those crazy lagfests that they called fun back before the CU. I tried one that was lower number out on Lok where i STILL reside it was not 100 people NOT even close and it was hell on earth lagwise. I think if we were lucky we had 40 people so thats MY point of reference and yes it was crowded and laggy . So even if i took screenies (i checked mine are all gone actually i thought i had some left but they were deleted from a site I thought I had left them on) they would nto show some people's definiation of a crowd which is the measuring stick we are all supposed to live up to
lastly I can tell you something with absolute certaintly that NONE of us know and it is this. No one on these boards posting NOW has any idea of the actual subscription numbers Not you. Not the guy with his messiah second comming complex who has just won the internet and not me. So this is a debate based on speculation on your part and on mine because I can't say for sure what everyone is doing when not inside a city getting buffed.. and neither can you.
so both 'sides' have proven that swg is crowded by their own definition and that there were enough players to make the game "go" as i put it. That is what most are concerned with if the game functions and it is for me it is and for many it is then there are enough people playing it this week or this month of whatever.
I have been playing in groups for 5 hours straight and not been inside mos eisley , reustuss or any other town trust me even as someone who plays I'm totally unaware of the numbers in the cities. We take our camps and our entertainers and medics and head out to "the wilderness" and do our thing because for many including myself THAT is where the game is.
So here is the thing the sky is blue and thats a fact the rest is just well endless mindless hogwash bickering is based on supposition and assumption with two photos of crowds.. lol
i think it is safe to say that us vets win another one from the looks of it. this isn't really fun anymore as we win every time and really the fanbois and $OE really can't put up any kind of fight.
What did you win?
we have won respect from our fellow mmo players who see that everything $OE and the fanbois say are lies.
we have won as we have shown time and time again how swg nge is the worst mmo on the market even free mmos are better then swg nge at this point.
we have won the war really as we have said time and time again the only way to fix swg is to do a full rollback to the pre-cu system and as $OE won't we won as no one wants to play swg nge besides a few fanboi holdouts and credit farmers who think they can make a buck off a dead game.
It's telling that LA and SOE have only ever put out one press release regarding sales. That was when it hit the 1 million boxes shifted milestone and that my friends was way, way before the CU, of course they can't make anymore box sales announcements because they're not even selling boxed copies anymore.
...The spread of secondary and latterly of tertiary education has created a large population of people, often with well developed literary and scholarly tastes, who have been educated far beyond their capacity to undertake analytical thought.

I remember I waited for my Preordered special edition BOX 1 week cause eveything else was sold out and I preordered 1 month before game was released.
There was huuuge demand on this game, heck i remember I couldnt connect to bloodfin server cause it was full and i waited sometimes more then 20 minutes to get in.
Players was everywhere, basicly in every city, AH was full, Bestine was full, Coronet was lag fest due to huge ammount of players. I was MBH/MCarabineer/Pistoller, PVP was a blast! Fun! Rebels atacking bestine from AH and so on. Farming nightsisters was Fun! we grouped and just head out hunting.
Cantinas in Playercitys was full, always ents there buffing.
Hunting a Jedi with 4x BHs was mega FUN, yes we died a lot but who cares it was fun. Chasing young padawan on Rori for 40 minutes across the planet was fun!
Being in the guild and hunt Krayts for pearls was fun!
PVP in coronet in a group of 15 ppl was fun!
Economy was on the rise, everone was happy playing and then this shitty NGE hit the shelves. I quit, then after a while I return, still same crap, and now this HOTH thing, I mean who cares?
Now dont tell me that shitty Hoth can replace all that that I rote above!
in addition I doubt they will release this free so called expansion due to SOE agreement with LA runs out this june/july, well who knows maybe LA let SOE renew and then we will have another year of of SWG.

LA was at the summit with SOE and publicly stated that SWG has no shutdown plans, nor will there be another SW MMO.

Show me where they said this.
Posted by the same guy who posted the original report:
lol and you believe that is viable proof that there will be no Star Wars mmo other than SWG?
Sorry, official LA press release is all that'll quash those rumours and as you know they have so far refused to comment. The rumours alone are damaging SWG, if they truly had no plans for another Star Wars mmo they would put out a press release purely to stabilise SWG.
...The spread of secondary and latterly of tertiary education has created a large population of people, often with well developed literary and scholarly tastes, who have been educated far beyond their capacity to undertake analytical thought.
I think this is to late of an addition. It would have been great a long time ago when a lot of players were active making the pvp worthwhile on the planet. But now it will just be a bunch of instances and a barren waste. Perhaps busy and exciting for about two weeks with the small amount of subscribers there are now.
Playing: Diablo 2, Medievia, SWG EMU In between: Eq Mac Retired: Guild Wars (2x), EQ, DAoC, PSO, Tibia, Runescape, WoW, SWG, Maple Story Waiting: WaR (hesitant), New Star Wars MMO
Ill be more clear then. They said to everyone that the license is not over. Then I walk up at Q/A and ask would there be another SWG mmo or star wars mmo the Lucas art guy came up and said there is none in plane. And they wont to work on Swg more ect. Deadmeat said why would we wont 2 swg mmo makes no since and all the resorces would go to waist and then both would fail. and sorry I should of made it more clear maybe not like no. sorry. No is a boild word ill give it that and don't get me wrong I bet they are making stuff up to me on that topic because they wouldn't look at me when they were talking about it. Who knows really.
So they couldnt look at the guy when they were telling him this and he admits they were probably making stuff up. Way to go on spreading false information.

I don't believe any of the "inside source" bullshit, I believe hard and fast, facts and press releases, so all I have to go on is one press release from LA saying that they are collaborating with BioWare on a project, a BioWare announcement stating that they are working on an mmo and while 2+2 could equal 5 it's still 2 more press releases than you can offer up stating anything to the contrary.

Not false information, that is LA's current public statement on the matter. His relucatance to believe is his personal opinion and he is right, know one really does know if LA is covering something up or not. This isn't the first time they've stated this though.

The only thing I've ever seen is LA saying the license isnt ending. If you can prove me wrong where they've said there will not be another SW mmo then show me a link. You're spreading false information by stating something from a source who says he thinks they were probably lying to him. That makes you no better than some of these people with "inside sources".

...The spread of secondary and latterly of tertiary education has created a large population of people, often with well developed literary and scholarly tastes, who have been educated far beyond their capacity to undertake analytical thought.
I think this is to late of an addition. It would have been great a long time ago when a lot of players were active making the pvp worthwhile on the planet. But now it will just be a bunch of instances and a barren waste.
Perhaps busy and exciting for about two weeks with the small amount of subscribers there are now.

Ill be more clear then. They said to everyone that the license is not over. Then I walk up at Q/A and ask would there be another SWG mmo or star wars mmo the Lucas art guy came up and said there is none in plane. And they wont to work on Swg more ect. Deadmeat said why would we wont 2 swg mmo makes no since and all the resorces would go to waist and then both would fail. and sorry I should of made it more clear maybe not like no. sorry. No is a boild word ill give it that and don't get me wrong I bet they are making stuff up to me on that topic because they wouldn't look at me when they were talking about it. Who knows really.
So they couldnt look at the guy when they were telling him this and he admits they were probably making stuff up. Way to go on spreading false information.

Is me believing that (plus the LucasArts interviews where they say simillar things) any different to you believing "friend of friend" rumours?

I don't believe any of the "inside source" bullshit, I believe hard and fast, facts and press releases, so all I have to go on is one press release from LA saying that they are collaborating with BioWare on a project, a BioWare announcement stating that they are working on an mmo and while 2+2 could equal 5 it's still 2 more press releases than you can offer up stating anything to the contrary.

The only thing I've ever seen is LA saying the license isnt ending. If you can prove me wrong where they've said there will not be another SW mmo then show me a link. You're spreading false information by stating something from a source who says he thinks they were probably lying to him. That makes you no better than some of these people with "inside sources".
