So let's play a little prediction game.As the game leaves beta in just two days,will Dust 514 see a new influx of people playing like many people seem to believe?
So here it is.Time to predict just how high the player count will be on Tuesday.
My personal prediction is around 5500(and hopefully CCP won't include EVE players in the count like they did a few days ago).I honestly don't see it going above 6k,and the way it's going,unless there are sweeping game play improvements,I don't ever see it going over 6k on a regular basis.Not that I'm hoping for the worst,but I'm just preparing for it.

I don't think the cake is baked yet to be honest. My main worry is that people will have a bad experience now and won't give the game another chance later. My other worry is that the new players will get annihilated by the veteran so soundly that regardless of how good/bad you think the rest of the game is they won't stick around to find out about it.
Peak player count prediction: 7200 |

The new player instant battle may be this game's salvation...temporarily. but unless they improve the core gameplay and make everyone happy. EVERYONE - not just AR's. But once the new players enter the vet's world, they'll leave bc they get stomped and the game is under par. |

The thing is,people have already had a bad experience,and haven't come back yet.
I have a bunch of friends that I played MAG with,they all tried it for maybe a couple of hours,and not a single one of them has come back,nor do I think any of them will come back.
I suspect that the majority of players that left won't ever return.

If they advertise it, it may peak at maybe 10k (that was roughly MAG's peak), but if they fix the controls, balance the AR's, and also extend HMG optimal by about 20m, as well as removing the hard range cap, then the sky is the limit! |

I think that raising the hard cap is a good idea, it would help new players catch up. That's a bad feeling knowing its gonna be 6 weeks of getting your teeth kicked in before you get enough SP to start getting some good suits and weapon combos.. |

That was 40k including EVE players.On it 's own,I don't think Dust has cracked 5K,or if it has,it was just barely.

If I'm not mistaken,MAG was pulling about 100k around launch time. |

nope. 10k was the record. (at least, for online at the same time) I have that on good authority :D |
