What do you think the peak player count will be in the week following the 1.8 release?

You killed me like 5 times today you bastard.
That would be great if we hit those numbers and it would be even better if we could hold on to 6k

Well, the lack of suit diversity was a huge problem to many people. We can only hope this (1.8) drags in some of those people. People, such as myself, have been waiting for full racial loadouts to finally come.

You are going to login in 1.8 and realize that you are playing the same game mods and the same maps (same grind) just with different suits
thats why we are going to have around 3k after the first week

5,000 - 6,000 during the first week of 1.8's launch. Then a slow decline back down to our original numbers over the course of two weeks.
When something genuinely new gets released* then we will see a spike in users that might be sustained for a while. Until then we are still playing the same game we have been playing for almost a year now... I just realized that sw:tor had more innovation in its first year than Dust did. I made myself sad

We're now going by the price is right rules. Highest without going over the actual count. My guess is 91.5

Thinking we might hit 7k during the first week. But although PC & FW may become more accessible, TTK is changing, roles are expanding/refining, suit & weapon choices are expanding, racial roles are now availible and the cloak is being introduced the flavour of the gameplay will not change significantly.
The dominant component of the gameplay experience atm is tanks. That will not change with 1.8, and in fact tanks will become more dominant.
Life will not be getting any better for dropship pilots.
The dominant components of infantry gameplay are the sloth effect and aim assist. That will not change with 1.8.
But in the end David Reid's 'minute-to-minute visceral gameplay' will feel very much the same as what we have now: lacklustre, second rate, clunky. So i expect to see those numbers dropping after the first week, asymptoting at the levels we have now: stubborn diehards who are only here for what we hope the game might become, and knowing full well that will require a string of good decisions on CCP's part. Included in that hardcore are the peeps AFKing and character rolling.
So more content and new systems piled on the same old flawed mechanics, and not a word of why that is so or how that makes sense. A patch just like all of our previous patches.
I support SP rollover.
