500 players leaving per month is not just a "doom and gloom train", it is reality and the players have all right to complain about the cause.

just saying. They are just taking a break...They will be back soon. You'll see. Here is a sound explanation of the phenomena from EVE forums: https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=3744036#post3744036(BTW, You can see my "face" in the previous post there ) so they leave to take a break since the beginning of commercial release, STEADILY, right?
cool story. |

oh really we have player spikes at weekends? who would guess that happens. average, that is what counts
in 5 months dust lost around ~3k players and the drop was steady. the recent rise is just well within the regular deviation, like it was in the past 5 months. but I guess basic logic, statistics over 5 months and averages is too hard to comprehend for some people :) |

How many players have lowered the amount they play DUST? How much of those numbers are players just logging in to collect their daily bonus?
I know many who have given up on DUST and some who are willing to come back once CCP implements more content such as racial heavies. Yes, CCP can boost player count but they need to have something exciting for any chance of vets coming back. They are moving in the right direction with changes to FW and PC but it all depends on how fast they can get those out. As IWS said, the PS4 will be the true test to see how many people leave as many who buy the new console wont keep their PS3 or will rarely use it. Once vehicles are done, this game should be in a decent state of balance (hopefully. At that point, their focus needs to be on content and expanding the depth of the game. a person that gets the point in dust forums? how did this happen? |
