I prefer boxers so James Westfall and Dr. Kenneth Noisewater can have breathing room.

[...] bleeding to death, but never allowed to truly die.

http://www.larshaendler.com/2015/02/19/titanfall-pc-player-base-random-thursday-february-2015/ Wonde rhow it looks there now. These numbers were the most recent I was able to find.

Yeah. So what about all these people who said that Titanfall will kill Dust? Now for some reasons Titanfall has less players than Dust 514 (which is down to about 2500 though: http://eve-offline.net/?server=dust )

Seems like there is still more to a game than just hit detection, lags and fps. Because apparently no matter how ****** Dust is in regards of these points it got a thing right Titanfall blatently ignored: longevity. A part so many people always forget and which was absolutely non existent in Titanfall, where you could reach max level in a matter of 6 hours or so and where all the Prestige Stuff was worth nothing.

So well... I just wanted to say: I told ya so!

Im very surprised a free game has more players than a game that no one who matters ever said would have any impact here

SC has 900,000 players and its not even out yet ;)

Now if you'll excuse me, the ARC needs a good trouncing.

Too big to fail is never a safe place to hedge your bet.
Please fiend, you're as bitten and infected by the hype bug as i am by sid meiers.
Its not healthy, your friends and family are worried, and your bank account is crying.

PAU is usually pretty chill for me. POLY on the other hand, is a tricky shitass. Hutama can rot in hell.

Aikuchi, games like Titanfall and Destiny don't kill Dust 514 outright.

When a player purchases one of the above games they are opting to spend their money on that game instead of Dust 514. Imagine how many dollars went toward Titanfall that could have bought aurum.

To compound this, we have the perception of failure working against Dust. When a group of players takes a few months off to play Destiny they are not only withholding aurum from CCP, the community is also down one less player in public contracts. One less person to fight for districts in PC. One less person to earn a victory for the Gallente or Caldari or whatever. A dwindling playerbase tends to create stress on the community.

"I keep fighting the same guys."

"Everyone is a vet. Where are the middle-tier players?"

"Everyone is running proto 24/7."

"Wait times in FW are too long."

Sound familiar? It should, because those are all complaints I have heard players talk about in-game and on the forums. This dissatisfaction breeds more negativity and that can keep all but the most stubborn / masochistic players from playing Dust long term.

Every FPS that gets released that attracts even a small percent of the Dust 514 playerbase is hurting the game. Since Dust is a F2P game, it is hard as hell to kill it though. As a result, Dust lives in this perpetual state of bleeding to death, but never allowed to truly die.

I play Destiny. Sure it's grindy and repetitive, but I play it with the leaders of my Dust corp, who are now my friends, and some other folks I know and have met there. Some of those are ex-Dusties as well. We play it because it's fun to play together in a common cause.

I've spent more than a few bucks on Dust; Destiny has only cost me the price of one game plus dlc for a similar level of enjoyment.

I don't think in terms of one game "killing" another. I simply choose to play a game that is fun with friends.
