The Old Republic Cancellation Issues; Trailer

[Jan 19, 2012, 4:09 pm ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

The Star Wars: The Old Republic Forums have posts from players having trouble cancelling their accounts for the MMORPG yesterday on the eve of when the one-month free accounts activated on the game's first day will be billed for their first paid month of service. Massively notes this thread with a workaround, and that customer service suggests customers with such issues contact them by phone. On the other hand, BioWare announces how not cancelling will earn players a "Founder" title, and the website now offers a video showing new features coming to the game in the future. In a separate bit of news related to the game, this post has word from the game's Live Community Coordinator that they have temporarily disabled posting for all community members on the Star Wars: The Old Republic Forums. No explanation for this is offered.

If the $300M number is anywhere correct, never mind the $500M number, EA won't recover from such a hit no matter what they do. I don't think you have a grasp on how large EA is. I suggest checking annual reports. A $500 million failure wouldn't doom the company. the loss itself isnt the problem, although it is of course to the balance sheet. the loss of the predicted sales and subs would be a much larger headache for the company and the stock value would reflect that.
