Well you kinda need to advertise the game for it to grow, 5000 players for a game that is rarely spoken of isn't all that bad. If CCP invested a bit of money on advertising this game would grow. Honestly the way match ups work its really hard to notice that there is only 5000 people playing at all times compared to other games like COD that the match ups go null and fail, or sometimes it takes 2 minutes to play a match that most people do not enjoy or just do not play, like the party games in Black Ops; this game is very fast at getting you into the battlefield.
Offtopic: If they really wanna make a lot of money they should sell a respec. :) |

They need to add something to their store that is actually worth buying, and with those profits advertise the game and have more people buy this thing, also they need to figure out how to port this to the PS4 if they expect any longevity. |

There seems to because huge misunderstanding on what a health game looks like proabaly caused by the like of bf3 and cod and halo which are market exceptions. The gamer communty seems very poorly informed of their own hobby a game is only dead once u core gameplay breaks due to lack of players. This has not happend nor is dust heading that way given it ran happly with just a few 100 a few months back
Game is dead when you try to join a match and you have to wait 5 minutes before actually entering a lobby. Although there are a decent amount of people leaving the game because of SP mistakes. Specially old school tank drivers. |

I have never had this issue ever and frankly any delay is the matchmaker at work. Halo and cod take just as long to get a match going. Who has quit game I hear this a lot and frankly I think its about as reliable as people saying their going to boycott the next cod game
People say that a lot, I actually said that about this game recently lol, and COD still make a bucket load of money. I hope that May 14 brings some balancing patches and fixes, like UP Tanks and OP Logistics, an SP reset, and some well deserved marketing. |
