Bioware are doing nothing to stem negativity and doing nothing to assist the Dalborra login issue.

I suspect with approx 10 servers left and some of them never showing Full...that actuall paying subscriber numbers are about 350k.
Closer to 22 healthy servers. Not saying that means the game is doing well but still, important not to just throw out inaccurate info.

EA has to report the sub numbers on 31 July. You can stream that call somewhere online but I don't know where. Still, I do know it's a publicly traded company so this investment call is a matter of public record and anyone can listen in. I'm gonna say they will probably have around 500k reported subs for the 2nd quarter. Some people think the sub numbers would have to be "abysmal" for so many people to be let go on top of the planned cuts but I think they're safely at the 500k mark. If I had to guess, I'd say they're closer to 600-750k. That's what I'm hoping for anyway!

Nigerian Prince says we've lost 300k. Magic 8-ball agrees. Crystal ball suggests trends will improve in the not so distant future.

To be fair most server pop sucked 1 week after release.

Thana vesh was max 80 on fleet 1month after release.

Now you can have 500 ppl on fleet and way more people doing ops too. Denova had 4 instance when i did it 2 days ago.

So the "page" was killed in the immediate second after you posted it?

lol

EDIT: Not to mention that you specifically mentioned that EA was trying to hide the information, as if you know.

Cute.

no actually the page is still up he just did a bad link.

He is linking to a Gamebreaker video where 3 people who play the game talk about it. one guy guesses its at 350k. That's it no offiical information.

Truth is the only people who are allowed to know the acutal subs are EA execs. Bioware can't even know what the sub numbers are. If they did it could be considered insider trading.

750k, give or take 100k I'd assume.

I remember this. With at least 5 months of 1.3 million + subs, them holding just 500k makes it very likely this game isn't anywhere near a a F2P level. A lot of people seem to forget this tidbit by the EA CEO.

Yeah I think a lot of ppl here are low ballin it. I'd say around the 900k mark. Seems people have been happier with the game since merges.
