Hrm, yeah the Eve-Online front page server graph does seem to show the noticeable drop in logins. But as other people have mentioned, it's possible that other factors might contribute to this.

I don't doubt the overall number of people who log into the game has decreased. The charts don't lie.
But that said we are still 3x or more larger than EVE in 2006. Plus, not all of them may be rage quitters... CQ prolly burned out the video cards of at least half those people. 0_o

Originally by: Syphon Lodian It's not an excuse. It's an offered explanation other than the "it's the protest, unassailable logic", where you people start threads and only allow whining, or else the person is a CCP ALT, alien, CIA etc.
How many people do you doubters need to tell you that they aren't logging on much til they see what CCP say, before you actually listen?
Personally, I did a lot of over time at work this week, but TBH after the whole MT deal and other issues with this update added to CCP's lack of respect to it's player base, welp I haven't had much desire to log on much in my off time either.

CCP didn't have the expenses then that it does now - Eve might be better with a lower population, but CCP would be in trouble. ------------- 'Don't try to learn Eve all at once, otherwise your brain will explode' - Albert Einstein ------------ |

To be fair I think the 4th in the US and Canada Day probably pull people away from their PCs more and longer than any other spring summer or fall holidays.

QFT, Eve is still fun, but isn't even near as fun as it was in 2006-7. Back then you could jump into an inty and roam solo or with a small gang. Since then Eve had become supercaps online and faction ships online. Small scale PvP is dead unless you are doing it in 1 bill each ships. Alliance warfare is unimaginable without dropping 80 supercaps on your enemy. Eve is slowly crawling down the drain, but CCP is busy milking us and developing bloodsuckers online...

Don't want to see Eve or CCP fail. But they've brought this on themselves.

It's called a H-O-L-I-D-A-Y. Some people step away from their PCs during a H-O-L-I-D-A-Y. Understand?
I think some would love to believe that the drop is due to protests so they can stroke thier egos thinking that they have some sort of power of CCP. These players need to think again. Eve will continue with or without you. So move along please, and most importantly...
Deal with it.

Originally by: Professional Russian Normally run incursions on Friday night, and couldn't find a fleet tonight for 3 hours. 26k online for a Friday night. Ouch. What did you do CCP?
To be fair, it is 4th of July weekend here in the US. People are usually out partying, traveling, or doing other stuff outside of the house. That's always been my experience during my last 32 years.

Again get some real numbers with some proper graphs.
And two months from now all the unsubbers will realize nothing much has actually changed and EVE is still the best MMO ever and they will come crawling back.
A graph going down does not mean it will go to zero.

Also, don't forget that a lot of extra accounts that are run are the free 51 day ones, many of which people have no intentions for to actually start paying. So the numbers we've been seeing for a while (since they started that stunt) are essentially faked.

Notice how from june to september there's a monthly users drop due to summer vacations according to them. It's a matter of perception.
First of all that's the number of new users. Not the number of currently active users.
And if you look a little bit to the left, exactly one year earlier, you will notice that the big increase happened right in the middle of summer.
Strange, he just explained that that's the time when everyone is away from their computers...

Until you've conducted big surveys and interviewed a large representation of the population, you have no idea what you're talking about.

Its a well known fact (among people outside of whiny EVE O forums ****heads) that the human brain is brilliant in finding patterns and relations where none exist.
Look outside, alternatively at calendar?
