EA shareholders meeting: over/under 300k subs?

wow really? lost that many eh.

It was because we begged for more servers on launch.

A very low player base would explain why we have gone into maintenance mode only and no new content is being produced.

I suspect they will report somewhere in the 700k but 100k will be free trials (which cause they are endless doesn't matter if the people are active), 50k will be people that refered themself for the reward (one month only subs) and 200k will be people that had faith in the game and got 6 months on day one which runs out in 25 days or so. Many of who wont renew as very very little new content has come out or will be coming out soon.

That puts me at 350k overall subs. Given the need for 500k to remain profitable I hope EA and Bioware can turn it around. But given recent communitcation and updates I suspect they all have something more important on their minds.

I agree with this. AOC had god awful end game content on launch, but at least it was slightly revolutionary with the combat

Ok this game had huge ambitions but clearly it wont be sustained, stop finding reasons to hate on the game lol. These forums are full of such fear that the game is going to die, that and people feeding of everyone elses fear and trolling :d

Sounds exactly like SWTOR.

8+ hours queues on early access server ment they needed more servers, Bioware opened too many servers, but that's not the players fault.

We can clearly tell you don't play SWTOR, and never played AoC.

AoC didn't even have enough content to get you to max level ffs.

I will bet 500K - with how silent they are and I expect them to keep loosing customer. In today's market it is just to hard to keep up with established MMOs that have 7+ content and will be introducing even more content in the coming months -

Plus the service they are providing right now is really disappointing.....communication is disappointing.........

DCUO went quite like this and it then got announce F2P and now just releases rehashed content. hope that doesn't happen here.

I'm going to say 1.2 million subscribers world wide.

Why are so many talking about 22 or even less active servers?
Its 27 active servers. 12 in the US, 12 in Europe and 3 in Asia Pacific.

At server merge around 3k players logged in for a heavy server close to prime time.
Since servers still hit heavy nearly every day we can assume that those numbers are still correct.

If we follow the 10% rule that would lead us to 810k subscribtions.

I gues its even more because i belive that currently less than 10% log in at prime time.
I would assume that 8 - 9% log in at the moment and that would lead us to 900k - 1012,5k

So in conclusion 800k - 1000k subscriptions seems like a good estimation.
