Telling the truth is not tellingnegative things. And that truth is this new version isn't any good. Ask yourself something. Can that many people be wrong about this new version? I think not.
The amount of people who dislike this game overlaps the few who do. if the game had improved do you think all of us, all the thousands upon thousands who left in disgust would of done so? I think not.
Telling the truth is never being negative, always remember that.
Wow, that was interesting to see Z3R01 change his stance on SWG frame by frame; having fun -> half retarded animation and difficult UI -> UI sucks, combat sucks, going back to EVE.
I know a few people that still play SWG, I don't care that they do but the reason they stated to why they still play is the people they knew and like to play with even though they know the game isn't as good as it used to be, I tried to enjoy the game with the people but the game got in the way too often and I couldn't enjoy it any further.
Most of the people I know that still play are like that. They continue to play DESPITE of the gameplay and most readily admit gameplay is worse than pre-nge. However, none of them are really the combat type and they've found niches in the game that they can't find in other mmo's .
One person I know is really into role playing a wookie and devoted A LOTof time into it. They have created a town that has many different types of museums and exhibits (in RL this person is a museum curator or something like that) that are all excellent. When I played, I've spent a few hours at times visiting the museums, and I wasn't the only one. When the ability to pack up your house came out, this person came up with a sort of travelling museum that they would take with them to other player cities that were having player events. If your ever on the Intrepid server I highly suggest visting the city of Symphonia on Naboo to take a look at the museums. Other people I know that still play do other non-combat (well ground combat) things like crafting, entertaining and space.
My point is that most people that still play do so even though they know the game is not as good as it used to be. They've either found a niche that they enjoy or they're Star Wars fans. Those type of people are most of the ones that still play these days.
Is a man not entitled to the herp of his derp?
Remember, I live in a world where juggalos and yugioh players are real things.
Well it was really in bad situation 2 years ago but now we have 2X more players in the game. And if you've seen the reuters news there are hundreds of thousands players in the game ATM. I hope it will be millions when people give up the kid game WOW. We have a great community now all Star Wars fans not some 50k elder jedi credit sellers.

Huh? I transfered to Bria last Dec and Bria's population looked like Kauri at around C5. (we called Kauri a ghost server even then)
And the great community has went to AoC style griefing. Spamming space invites in the middle of a PVP battle to "trap" a toon on a ship. Then, 1 guy gets up and says "Tip one million to all of us here and we'll land". Some great community of 12 year olds, there. /sarcasm
If it's so great population wise, why is the GCW numbers at an all time low? Only a little over 8000 officers on 25 servers. At C5, those numbers were around 12 thousand.
There's a thread over on the "veteran" section on the "hundreds of thousands" reported. You might read it. Any one that's been in the game the last few months knows much better than that, even with all the free months for vets going on.

No thanks. I'll pass on the kool-aid.
