The game is decent as a free to play type game. But it is not an mmo its more of a single player RPG with some chat thrown in. Who is actually willing (Be honest) to pay $15 dollars a month for a game not worth one penny???
I would give you a guest pass to SWOTR, but then I wouldn't be able to find a way to live with myself afterwards....

I will gladly pay 15euros or whatever the sub is for this game, but i tell u know, i wont be playing GW2 if it being free. But i can give you a hint, dont play the game if you dont like it, because a free game will have no updated content or any decent content, yes even gw just wait and see, i pay for SWTOR because i expect BW to go thru with their part or the agreement, wich is Content update with regularity.
Honestly! Who would post such drivel on a forum dedicated to the game? It would work in, say, the GW2 forums, the game for people who don't like monthly fees. But here? Really?
I would.
I gotta agree with this I'm not playing this game I've got my own reasons, but you don't see me coming on these forums and saying boo Hiiisss... it is childish and dumb really... if your gonna say DONT PLAY THIS GAME give more reasons behind your statement OP... its really getting tiring seeing the same recycled crap goin on these forum as of late. the MOds really need to step up there game and start filtering these pointless threads out from obvious trolls and haters..
People would pay a lot more for a giant turd in a Darth Vader suit, and EA knows it. It's Star Wars, it doesn't have to be good.
And exactly what are you basing that off of lmao. Guild Wars has always done a great job putting together events to keep the game fresh. However their game at the time was pretty much just a co-op rpg, their wasn't much room for content updates because of the way it was setup, expansions where needed. And because of the f2p title they had to put up or shut up with there game each time they went to make an expansion since that was their #1 source of income. What did this do? Bring awesome content to a game that was free after the intial purchase. This doesn't mean they didn't have any content updates, because they sure as hell did. Anet is one fine developer and anyone who has played there game would most likely agree.
Now if you think that paying monthly will get you tons of content updates you'd be foolish. For example let's use the Giant, WoW is subscription based it's first major update (after cataclysm) was in june, 6 months after release. When did it get updated again? Just a few weeks ago, now that's an update every half year that they slowed down to, and people still pay $15 a month.
On the other hand you have Trion who developed rift, who give their player's good content for the subscriptions. Though the was not big at all from start, you can see how it is expanding over time, and how quickly it is. That is getting your money's worth IMO.
Now I'm not trying to say that BW won't give a ton of content updates, and hell I'm not really sure if they mentioned anything about how frequent they plan on updating. But what I am getting at is you really aren't guarentted content often at all for your subscriptions, and WoW isn't the only sub-based game that takes forever to update. But to say that Anet will throwGW2 out there and not give any decent content updates is ludacris, I would say that GW2 is the most well thought out MMO of recent IMHO. Sure I am a pretty big GW2 fan boy, but I am being honest. They won't give us a release date still after 5 years because they want it to be perfect, also being that guild wars is the only game Anet has ever made, I think that they hold it so dear to them that they wouldn't simply just ditch it after release.
I think he means B2P.
But anyway, I still am firmly off the opinion that this game would have been groundbreaking as a SRPG ie KOTOR3 with co-op elements. They could have had periodic paid DLC packages too and things like that.
Definitely not worth a subscription as far as I am concerned.
"Never argue with a fool; onlookers may not be able to tell the difference."
I need to take this advice more.
I'm loving it, I'll pay for it.
Is that what you're looking for in this thread? Not sure why you would make it. Although I'm convinced that Blizzard, in it's billions of dollars, is not above trying to come to forums like these, and hire people to just trash it's competition.

Worst part is that there is no lifetime sub option.
I'm going to play this for 5+ years and I want a lifetime sub!!

Blizzard is 'worried' actually.
Not by SWTOR or any one particular MMO but in their own game.
Subs of WoW is declining. That's a fact.
You had the CEO of Blizzard talking to the investors on how to turn that around in the last earnings call by saying stuff like 'Faster content / expansions'
That's a company 'worrying'.

slicing is good to 50, but, you make way more money just killing mobs once you are in your 40s, so you can actually focus on other crew skills.

Well I sure wouldn't but a lot of people undoubtly would and will. How many exactly, remains to be seen. I would still assume the subscriptions will be only a fraction of the box sales, as usual.
Me - I got bored at level 10. Glad I didn't pay anything for the box.
I don't think the company is "worrying" as they know full well that D3 and "Titan" will rake in tremendous profits. If they were really "worried" then they would pull some of their original WoW Dev who are forerunners of the devs from the "Titan" project.
But as far as the OP is concerned... until I experiance end-game it's hard to say if this is a sub worthy game or not. If then the single strong point of SWTOR is the story then hell no as if I really wanted story then I'd play the ME series or DA as their story stomps SWTOR to the ground if they end up with lackluster end-game.
This has got to be the dumbest thread ever. Well right after this gem of a statement. Some people are just completely blinded by thier hatred for any other MMO that they are not currently playing. Doesn't matter which MMO it is. Some people will continue to troll other MMO forums becaues of fear thier own MMO will fail and lose subs. So they come out of the woodwork like roaches to troll in hopes they are not denied thier game is the best and everything else sucks.
Hint, stop already and go troll on your own MMO forums. Just go ahead and play your given MMO and stop with the forum griefing. I mean where are the Mods on these forums?

I'm enjoying every second of it. Much better than any of the crap mmos that have come before it.
Currently Playing: World of Warcraft
I would it's in my opinion better than all these mmorpgs out there. have you even get to level 10 yet or played a battleground.
If you didn't shut your mounth.
It is up to BW, if they keep updating the game with new valid content, give life subscription now, if they dont then the game will eventually loose subs, but see this, the game is out for a couple of weeks and they already have the test server up with new content anounced you really think BW isnt up to the task? if you dont like the game dont pay it is ok, but just face it SWTOR will be here for many years and i'm confident that the subs will keep on increasing.
Another day and another whiner crying about a mmo, a good mmo that is.
Specialy for a mmo that is 7 days old.
WoW is 7 years old and got time to improve on many many aspects.
SWTOR has just begun and will make it better and better with each patch and expansion.
Cant pay the sub or dont want to pay a sub for a new mmo ? go play something else.
But please stop crying on the foums people, its like 80% of the people posting in forums are CoD kids or BF kids trying to prove their opinion is a fact lol.
so is this a rage because the servers are down 6 hours? i mean its not good that us eu players need to have server down sametime as us.
but as for launch of mmo one of the smoothest really. and yet as a game top5.
edit : big vote for server admins for eu servers doing the patching overnight.
