Mine says 2,450 right now and I haven't changed any settings on my router or the PS3. I did see about 50,000 once shortly before the Uprising update. But I agree, it will take some time for people to learn that Dust 514 exists. Thats because CCP was padding the number by including how many people were logged in to EVE
This^
And the most Ive EVER seen online was 4135 while the least I have seen is 2 ( tho in there defense that was RIGHT after shutdown ) |

I expected it to be really about 50,000. But aren't EVE and Dust already merged together to bring that number up?
Not that I know of. I think it was for like a day then changed it back
And that number was at peak times on a friday but I mostly see between 3000-3300 |

No? my hometown only has about 5000 people ( in the winter ) so I thought everyone in game was from here?
Well my mind is fukcn blown |

The majority of the younger and more casual playerbases in COD/BF3 will not have the patience to last long here. Those that do might very well have some good ideas to bring to the table.
I agree,
And obviusly they got something right otherwise there wouldnt be more then 60,000 people online at all times, and thats on 3 seperate consoles.
thats over 180,000 plaers online at all times for 1 game ( talk about Massive and Multiplayer danm ) |

Makyre Vahliha wrote:Well, I actually don't mind that it's low at this point since it's like EVE Online where it had about 300,000 subscribers (last time I checked when I used to be on that game a few years ago,) compared to WoW which were in the millions. As the numbers gradually increase, it will be healthy but not overhyped like COD/BF3 unless if Dust does become a clone like them. I'm hoping that if Dust does stand on its own without bending over to the newcomers, then it will be equal to EVE Online where all the mature folks will be for the most part.
Console FPSs cant survive like EVE has, CCP ( and everyone else ) needs to realize this.
I will give DUST about a Year untill Destiny releases and then we will see just how good DUST is.
As of right now DUST has virtually no Compitition ( other then AAA FPSs ) so if done right they can lock down the Market and actually have a fighting chance against Bungie and Destiny |
