As others pointed out the numbers are barely dented. It would seem retention is higher now as well.

You mean when there weren't any cloaks, railguns, invincible maddys and the like? When the game bugs and glitches were first only really just coming out and no one thought it was a big deal? When the ability to enter the game didn't make you so susceptible to proto stoping?

I can sound like an a@@hole about it when I'm not trying to be the Captain Obvious part but these are significant differences; on Legion you're hoping to replace players with the PC market solely and either hoping to transition console players to PC or bust. That's a bit different from 1.0 and 1.8 where there isn't a transition in the player's platform. I don't like comparing this that have vastly differing situations and I get rather petty pointing out the differences

Games in the same state it was before. Or is it because people are still "burning" their assets? Is that still the excuse? It's been a couple weeks. Look at the 1 year graph See how you can quite easily draw a trend line starting in December (around the 10th... release of 1.7) and around the time of fanfest? That is a positive growth trend-line that is very similar to Eve's circa 2003-2004 When the content stopped for 2 months( a week or so prior to fanfest), it appears as thought the positive trend-line stopped and since then, well there just simply enough data yet. 1 month from now we will be able to see the effects of no-content and the kick in the teeth that was fanfest. It is too early yet to make an informed statement of those events. Fixing swarms

Pretty sure i've played with a couple within the last few days. Also, been seening a lot of new players out there who are really enjoying the game. Since we lost a bunch of vets the noobs are not being stomped as hard. Yesterday, there was over 46k players on. So, we may be kising some friends & great players who really cared, we are still gaining new players with fresh perspective. We know they can never feel the hope we had for this game but they are getting a chance to experience this in a way we couldn't. I am the cool. Shamma lamma mu mu

Still havent played since before fanfest. Although "hotfix-alpha" has me wanting to MAYBE come back and burn some assets. I only play dust514ums now. It was always more fun than the actual game anyways.

Right, because FPSs on PC have been doing really well with the hackers running rampant. Day z: full of hackers; rust: full of hackers; titanfall: full of hackers; BF4: full of... well i think your starting to get my point. But hey, lets all run to legion on PC..

(some going to sony) why don't people see this part? if you were a company making things like games for instance iam prrety sure your hardworing staff is going to want some cash on that paycheck *Elite Gallenten Soldier*
