Just a few days ago EA sent out a press release stating that they believe half a million subscribers is enough to make money from the new Star Wars MMO. After 300 million in development costs I am not so sure. First, they must pay for maintaining the servers and updating things and second, if 500,000 subscriptions is good, imagine World of Warcraft, with way lower development costs and more than 12 million subscribers. What do you think?
