the game that was once listed in the top 3 MMORPG's hotlist isnt even on the list anymore let alone in the top category,servers are fast becoming ghost towns,players are frustrated and leaving in droves,why is this happening?,simply because the game doesnt have the abilty to hold peoples attention like it used to,with all the changes that are happening,the vast majority of which are unwelcome by the majority of players yet are forced on us anyway,the proffesion that the majority of players strived to become has become a hollow shell of what it once was,the CU has been massively unpopular but SOE were smart and released it at a time when EP3 was coming out so we had an influx of players,in doing this they could go to LA and say "hey look at the numbers,the CU is a success" so here we are 7 months after it went live and things arent any more balanced this is unexcusable,infact in some cases they're even more unbalanced,jedi dont have the abilty to absorb damage from each other anymore,but yet other players are able to absorb our damage just fine and heal it off with little or no effort!
the CU was said to make combat faster and more engaging,yet its done exactly the opposite,combat has become slow and tedious,and yet the devs are still thinking of more ways to make things slower still by adding more snares and giving players the abilty to chain snare/root,this is where the devs go wrong the most,things are ALREADY too slow,if they catch themselves thinking of putting more things into the game that are gonna make things slower they should stop right there and think of a better solution,ANYTHING no matter what it is that makes this game slower than it already is isnt a good thing
now heres what i think is gonna happen to SWG,like i said before the CU was able to absorb the player loss from the influx of new players that were attracted by EP3,most of those players have left already,so they have a new expansion coming out?..ok thats fine,people who are sick of no content are gonna buy it,but what then? once everyone has done the quests,we're still gonna have interface bugs,speed bugs,lag issues,and slow combat,at this point,this is where SWG becomes dead in the water,because player morale right now is fragile at best,we're probably still gonna have no FRS,no pearls,speed bugs,lag issues,still not be able to absorb damage from each other and BH will still getting more new and improved ways to hunt us,around this time more games are gonna be coming out,the much anticipated DnL,roma victor,dungeons and dragons online,so how are SOE gonna keep us here?..they arent going to be able to unless they act NOW and stop swinging that damn nerf bat!!!!
heed these words,SWG's days are numbered unless the devs act now,because once the jedi are gone,the remaining amount of players financial contributions wont be able to subsidise keeping the servers open
and you know what else saddens me and surprises me?..look at all the great idea's there is on these boards right now,ive never seen so many great ideas all at once,this says alot about peoples current state of mind where this game is concerned if theres alot of players who are actually coming up with ideas for the devs all at once,it shouldnt be this way,we pay them to do it for us,yet they dont seem to want to do it or they simply just dont want to listen...truly sad

and you're not the only one my friend,out of the people on my friendslist who hung around after the CU,most of them are leaving too as soon DnL and Roma victor comes out,no amount of expansions from SOE is gonna make them hang around,they need much more from the devs to buy back the loyalty that they threw away
