Daning Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 Where are you getting these numbers from? Link? A professional industry analyst put the number at 1.5 million, so I'd love to know how you came to your figure of 500,000. Who? PACHTER? I seriously hope you don't listen to that know-nothing-sorry-excuse-for-an-analyst. He's wrong 99% of the time and 1% is just that random margin of error.

BigLuvins Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 I propose that if no source is forthcoming from the OP, we all ignore this thread and leave it to die. Thoughts? I agree. Don't bump this thread anymore. Crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thamelas Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 There is no way there are 500k subscribers... Since apparently each server only holds 300 people there are not enough servers to account for that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smallways Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 Unless you are a Bioware or EA shareholder or employee, why does it matter? Would you enjoy the game more if 15 million people played the game? Would the story coalesce more if a spreadsheet somewhere said 10 million people also played? Would pvp be ruined for you if only 500k people had subscribed by day 2 of the games existence? I just don't understand why it matters, one way or the other.

IMatricksI Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 Due to some screw-up, I'm still awaiting my CE from BestBuy.ca to be delivered (apparently they're getting their shipment today). So that's why I, a lowely number of 1, haven't subscribed yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kazmtyh Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 Just because you bought the game doesnt mean you subscribed. If you bought the game you have a 1 month subscription. It's just free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kazmtyh Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 4/3 = 1 1/3, which is a valid fraction. just saying. Have you met 1/3 of a person? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much effort do you think a company will put in a game if there are only 500k subs. How much effort do you think a company will put in a game if there are 10 million subs. ALSDKJFALSKJD it's so frustrating this "piss off" logic fan boys have. Saying, "THEN LEAVE" is about as stupid as you can get. These people you are telling to "piss off" are the ones that are going to help the game get a better response by its developers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a little tip 6 million chinese subs < 500K Western Subs. 80% of WoW's revenue comes from the West which represented at its peak about 4 million subs.

Vlakrar Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 Have you met 1/3 of a person? Based on the intelligence levels of some people I've grouped with....they could be the 1/3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baizak Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 (edited) So I was looking at total server populations and class choices. So far, less than but almost, 500,000 people have been playing. This doesn't seem as high a number as many expected .Is this accurate or is it just a brief snapshot? Oh please enlighten us... How were you able to determine these numbers? Show your work please.

Hinataa Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 67% of all statistics are made up. Likewise 4 out of 3 people have problems with fractions. I see what you did there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazyhorsek Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 listen... I dont need 1 million ppl to play with. I just need for my server to have those 3 or 4k ppl a server can handle. So for an awesome game like this... I just really need my server to be full so I have ppl to play with. I dont know why ppl are so fascinated with millions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apax Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 (edited) The original poster made the assumption that everyone is aware of http://www.torstatus.net/ It took less than ten seconds to figure that because I actually read what she wrote instead of rushing to flame her comment. Imagine what the forums would look like if everyone did that. Edited December 21, 2011 by Apax Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anzel Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 So there is 67% chances your 67% chances of the 67% stats is actually made up too? 60% of the time... it works every time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FunkyOne Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 If you bought the game you have a 1 month subscription. It's just free. If you bought the game it's not free. It's just included in the price of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
