I'm looking at the OP, and I'm not seeing that.
I consider the 'population' to be the 'average' population excluding patch peaks. The average seems from those figures, pretty unchanged.
I'm starting to think the biggest problem is that we have 'way' more servers and DCs, and the population has shrunk as much as it's grown, ie it hasn't grown. Leading to hollowed thin spread communities.
Seems to be based on the last chart the OP posted. May of last year was 91,000 players. This month is down to 22,000. But are those only Steam accounts? Doesn't say.
