Even if it is a total failure, they will keep re-assuring everyone up until the second they pull the plug. That is rough on the players, but it is just good business sense. Actually, if EA were going to pull TSO, they would have done it las year, when things looked pretty grim to me. If usage is any clue, the trend seems to be steadily increasing subscriptions for the last four months or so. Also, the cap on simultaneous users seems to be rising.
