2.0 is still coming out weather 5 people or 5 million are playing. So your "discovering of the real numbers behind how many people are playing" isn't doing anything except making yourself feel like you discovered something amazing that will change the course of the game. But it wont.

Just play.

im going to have to disagree.

Since launch i have had a really hard time finding much of anything that i need at any given time on Selbina in the MW.

The more people that play gives you more options of who you can play with.
Larger populations gives you the option to have several linkshells to organize who you will play with and do what when.
Larger populations also contribute to the games production speed due to subscriptions.
Larger populations have a greater influence as to the future direction of the games content due to a wider range of taste in gaming.
do you realize that without the western complaints of not having a hardware mouse we would have never gotten one? it took about two months to get the hardware mouse.
It was specifically stated by Tanaka that the JP were fine with the software mouse and they at that point had no plans to add the hardware mouse. if there were 5 americans playing we most likely wouldnt have a hardware mouse today.

the list goes on, large populations have several effects on gaming.
