last night we were 31 players away from hitting a 6 month player count record. the last update firmly established the upward slope for ccp. i'll bet you a buffalo-isk the next update sees the servers hit 5000 on the regular.
for all the nay-sayers: you lose. dust 514 established steady growth 7 months after launch.
for ccp: continue to kick a ton of ass.

Humm. I like your optimism and its true that IF CCP deliever then they will increase player count but thats only IF CCP deliver. Bare in mind the total design of this game - Losing your items upon death as well as the total lack of balance in most matches is always going to put most people off.
At least they were the main things that put my mates off from playing. I dont mind though as the game is a niche game for a niche market. (That's pronounced nee-shh not NITCH by the way) |

Yes 6 months to achieve a record again, and it happens to coincide with an event that drew back a couple dozen vets.
I'll believe it when our numbers stay increased post 5x sp weej

Well last night was a Thursday, which is not traditionally a peak night - but one good day does not an upward trend make. |

One of the things I like about the game is the whole ISK management thing. I wouldn't mind it being more challenging than it is. Eveni I could be running proto much of the time if I wanted to.

Sadly it also made me rage quit because of the lag and terrible matchmaking. Id prefer fewer players every day of the week if its smooth.
All that improved coding on the shotgun was actually just better framerate and less lag. Had blue flashes with knives and shotguns on heavys....

if you look at the charts it's got very little to do with player events. the growth pattern has been established. |

EDIT: There's also SP event going on, so yeah.
I posted this on Thursday, I was talking about Wednesday. we did get a handful more players on Thursday night, but historically i'm not sure you're right about Thursday being a the busiest night of the week. |

Yeah, just about the same number of people are using Home Depot's color-matching paint app to select "California Sunset" right now.

anyone can be a petulant child. truth is we beat the 6 month player record half a day ago, and you've never played a game that was building it's playerbase 8 months after launch.

Please doublecheck your numbers when the SP event has finished. I think you'll find the numbers back at usual levels.

Great post, the numbers have been pretty level for quite some time. It's only going to get better.
I really hope they plan on working on the PS4 development soon though. The game can't go where we want it to go on this platform.

the trend has been established for 2 months now. this is just a mile marker. |

The numbers have been steady at the usual numbers I posted above.
They rise a bit during SP events, then fall back to the usual numbers again after the event. Just like they do with this SP event.
So what are you trying to say?

you're not taking into account characters created, and the three month chart says otherwise. lower valleys is the sign of healthy growth. |
