We need new events,

[Renathras]

Mate, you said yesterday that this game has 2M - 4M

Care to provide a quote of that?

Perhaps you mean this post?

(assuming 1-2 million, which is a pretty solid ballpark estimate of the size of the playerbase right now)

Mate, you shouldn't tell such blatant and easily debunked lies about people.

And in that same thread you said you TOTALLY have sources, but refused to provide them with asked?

Please stop speaking about any sort of data, it's not your strong suit.

EDIT:

I disagree with the reason but the outcome of newer event would be a welcome one.

Same and agreed.

Here's what I'm refering to:

I'd say the fact that - as another poster so kindly pointed out - at least 20000...

1) We have hard data proving this number?

2) So that's between 0.5% and 1% of the playerbase. What about the other 99%?

Theodric pointed out Mare's concurrent users are at 20K, which is true. Then you retorted and said that those 20K are 0.5% to 1% of population. Which brings us to 2M-4M concurrent players, because how could you possibly deduct from this single parameter a number of daily players, or anything else (ignore that 2-4mil is way too much even for daily players).

Just to put this insane number in perspective, CS:GO is at 750K, and DotA 2 at 300K concurrent players.

And I also provided sources in that thread now, hope you're happy.



Edit because of post limit:

Actually, it seems to be his strong suit. He did a rather thorough and accurate analysis in that other thread, proving how even the infamous Steam data shows the game continues growing considerably with each expansion (including EW having a significantly higher population than ShB at each similar patch along the way). Then you get the guy claiming the servers are "dead"...umm...what? During Make It Rain, you could go to the GS virtually any time of the day or night and it was packed. People have been posting how Aether had almost 150 end-game groups going in PF at once, and even one of the non-Aether DC's had around 100 (the majority of which were high-end duties). Heck, now with the new patch the Aether hunt trains have gone back to only announcing them on individual servers instead of DC-wide because of how over-populated and unwieldy they become if the wanderers join.

I think the person mentioning playing chess against pigeons in the other thread has it right...

Cool, but I wasn't arguing about any of that, don't know how I'm related to it. We already know that players numbers are doing good for a few months now from latest LuckyBanchoo survey, it's nothing new:

Pretty easy to do an analysis when results are already there for you to cross-check.

(since this 90s website implodes when you put quote in quote, so I had to put it in image)

Are you sure about that?

really sure?

You just need to insert the second layer manually, to my experience.

It just doesn't keep stacking quotes in quotes in quotes when you press the button. For the most part, that's smarter forum design than letting the chain build up.
