The guy that made a post about the CU2 coming soongot flamed and he had no proof but word. No telling what SOE/Lucas are willing to do at this point.
I'm ready to believe this and the reason why is because This game is hurting for subscribers. That means in order to keep covering costs they need to raise the price on remaining subscribers to keep it up and running.
SOE is keeping their numbers under tight wraps but the word is they're down to 60k active subscriptions since the CU hit when they had 225k.
Why do you think they keep changing everything so drastically? These guys are desperate to find something that will work and bring back all the subscribers they have lost. The only problem is they're too stupid to see that the only thing that brings back subscribers is to listen to the player base and act on what is said. And in 2 years, they've never done that, because they have an attitude of thinking they know what is best, which is clearly not the case, or we would not be suffering the NGE.
SW:G is going down the tubes and it stands to cost SOE and LA a crapload of money, and LA has lost money 2 years running.
Lol , whatever. I call bullsh!t. Lucas Arts has had final approval over anything done in this game since the beginning. They only thing that might be plausible is that they stop offering individual game subscriptions. Perhaps all subscriptions will be converted over to station pass.
SWG was the first game to charge 14.99. I highly doubt for an individual subscription they will raise the price by almost 50%.
Ho'mer
There was word that they are going to remove all payments.
And now I'm hearing this crap
PLEASE...

If 250k of folks pay $15 a month thats $3.75 mill a month being raked in. So what are the costs? Take 100 employees making $50 grand a year. Two months more than pays their saleries. Two more months and thats $7.5 mill for operation costs of servers/equipment. That leasts 8 months for a total of $29 million. So tell me. Whats sucking up all these funds? LA and SOE CEOs wanting 2 million dollar bonus each? Seems funny how the busineess that are in bankruptsy have a net income of the top 40 people is greater than what the company is losing.
