Less than a week since launch, and SWTOR has already broken a million registered players. Bioware co-founders Ray Muzyka and Greg Zeschuk have posted a thank you note on the milestone whilst also acknowledging the queue issues on some servers.

A million subscribers is a mighty fine start, and as is stated in the post the growth is continuing. The real test as always will be in around 3 months to see if the current subscriber base is being maintained, how much growth is still occurring and how much churn in subscribers there is. All that said, it’d be hard to imagine Bioware are disappointed with the number of subscribers in such a short time.

What about you – does the number of subscribers have any impact on you beside server load?
